Yes it does.

Ex.: C6H12O6 is glucose, or sugar. To find the Atomic Mass, you must add up all the masses of each element like so:

C=12.01 mol.g

H= 1.01 mol.g

O= 16.00 mol.g

(12.01 x 6) + (1.01 x 12) + (16.00 x 6) = 180.18 mol.g is glucose's atomic mass. This can be done with any compound if you have the empirical formula, and the weights for the elements found on the Periodic Table.

How to calculate empirial formula from molecular formula?

To calculate the empirical formula from a molecular formula, divide the subscripts in the molecular formula by the greatest common factor to get the simplest ratio of atoms. This simplest ratio represents the empirical formula.


An unknown sample with a molecular mass of 180.0g is analyzed to yield 40 percent C 6.7 percent H and 53.3 percent O What is the empirical formula and the molecular formula of this compound?

The empirical formula is CH2O. To find the molecular formula, you need to calculate the empirical formula weight (30 g/mol) and divide the molecular mass (180.0 g/mol) by the empirical formula weight to get 6. This means the molecular formula is (CH2O)6, which simplifies to C6H12O6, the molecular formula of glucose.


How do you find out the volume when you have molecular weight and wt of compound?

To calculate the volume of a compound when given its molecular weight and weight, you need to first convert the weight to moles using the molecular weight. Then, you can use the density of the compound to find the volume by dividing the weight in moles by the density. The formula is volume = weight (in moles) / density.


Do you need to know atomic weight to calculate molarity?

No, you do not need to know the atomic weight to calculate molarity. Molarity is calculated by dividing the moles of solute by the volume of solution in liters. Knowing the atomic weight can help determine the number of moles in a given mass of solute, but it is not required to calculate molarity.


Is molecular weight the same as mass?

Technically... not really. It would perhaps be more accurate to use the terms formula mass and molecular mass rather than formula weight and molecular weight. This because in physical terms, weight is a force while mass is a measure of the amount of substance in something.

What is the process to calculate the gram molecular weight of the unknown liquid?

To calculate the gram molecular weight of an unknown liquid, you need to determine the molecular formula of the liquid and then add up the atomic weights of all the atoms in the formula. This will give you the gram molecular weight of the unknown liquid.


What is the molecular formula of a compound if the weight is of a unit of the compound is 120 and the empirical formula is C3H4?

To find the molecular formula, you first need to calculate the empirical formula mass of C3H4. C3H4 has an empirical formula weight of 40 g/mol. If the molecular weight is 120 g/mol, then the molecular formula would be 3 times the empirical formula, so the molecular formula would be C9H12.


How do you calculate equivalent weight of oxide?

To calculate the equivalent weight of an oxide, you first determine its molecular weight. Then you look at how many oxygen atoms are present in the formula of the oxide and divide the molecular weight by that number of oxygen atoms. This result is the equivalent weight of the oxide.

How does one determine a molecule formula from the empirical formula?

The density or some other information must be given that allow you to find the molar mass. Calculate the empirical formula mass. Divide molar mass by empirical formula mass. This answer is multiplied by all subscripts of the empirical formula to get the molecular formula.


How many micromoles is 20 micrograms?

To convert micrograms to micromoles, you need to know the molecular weight of the substance. The formula to convert micrograms to micromoles is: Micromoles = (micrograms / molecular weight) If you provide the molecular weight of the substance, I can help you calculate the number of micromoles in 20 micrograms.


How do you calculate density from molecular weight?

Density can be calculated from molecular weight using the formula density = (molecular weight) / (molar volume). Molar volume is the volume occupied by one mole of the substance and can be calculated using the ideal gas law or experimental data. Dividing the molecular weight by the molar volume gives the density of the substance.

How do you calculate the molecular weight of nitrous oxide?

To calculate the molecular weight of nitrous oxide, also known as N2O, add the atomic weights of the elements in the chemical formula: nitrogen (N) has an atomic weight of 14.01 g/mol and oxygen (O) has an atomic weight of 16.00 g/mol. Therefore, the molecular weight of nitrous oxide (N2O) is 44.02 g/mol.
