What is molecular mass of cupric sulfate?

Answer 1

Do you ant the mass of one molecule of this also? or the molar mass?

do you want calculations also for it?

I'm going to decide your trying to find the molar mass (Given now by M, previously by Mr). as u have not given the amount of mole (n) in your question for me to find the mass of an amount of Cu3PO4.

molar mass of Copper Phosphate is calculated as follows:

refering to the Periodic Table, Find the atmoic weight of Copper (Cu), Phosphorus (P) and Oxygen (O). knowing that the formula for Copper Phosphate also helps: this is Cu3PO4.

From this it can be seen there are 3x Copper atoms, one Phosphorus atom, and 4x oxgen atoms.

The atomic weights of these elements can be found on a periodic table.

(these may vary in accuracy depending one the periodic table you use)

Cu = 63.5g/mol

P=30.97g/mol

O= 16.00g/mol

The units for these are grams per mole. mol is short for mole. (i know dropping an e isn't much but that's crazy chem people for you).

So we know we have 3 Cu, and 1 phosphus , and 4 oxygens. So therfore the molar mass (Cu3PO4.) is:

(63.5x3)+(1x30.97)+(16x4)= 285.47g/mol

hope that's what your lookng for. if not just say. . :)

Answer 2

The molecular mass of cupric sulfate, which has the chemical formula CuSO4, is approximately 159.61 grams per mole. This value is calculated by adding the atomic masses of one copper atom, one sulfur atom, and four oxygen atoms in the compound.

Answer 3

The RMM of sulfate ion is 96. The RAM of copper is 63.5. Therefore the molecular mass of cupric sulfate is 96=63.5=159.5u.

Answer 4

79.545 g mol-1
