Molecular Mass

Molecular mass measures the mass of a molecule. It is measured by adding together the atomic masses of atoms the molecule is made of.

What is the mass (in grams) of 9.18 1024 molecules of methanol (CH3OH)?

9.18x10^24 molecules CH3OH x 1 mole/6.02x10^23 molecules x 32 g/mole = 488 g (to 3 sig figs)

Does one mole of NH3 weigh more than one mole of H2O?

The mass of NH3 mole = its molecular weight = 14 + 3 x 1 = 17

The mass of H2O mole = its molecular weight = 2 x 1 + 16 = 18

This means that one mole of NH3 weigh less than one mole of H2O

How many moles of oxygen atoms are present in a 254 g sample of CO2?

Use dimensional analysis to solve this problem. First calculate the molecular mass of CO2. This is found by (use a periodic table) adding 12.011g of C to (15.999g x2) grams of Oxygen. Once you do that, you find out that 44.009g are in 1 mole of CO2. Now, simply by looking at the equation of CO2, we can tell that 2 moles of oxygen atoms are in 1 mole of Co2 (look at the subscript for Oxygen). Now, your dimensional analysis should look like this:

254g CO2 x 1 mole CO2/44.009g CO2 x 2 mole Oxygen/1 mole CO2

The answer is 11.5 moles of Oxygen in 254g of CO2.

What is the molecular mass of propanoic acid?

The molecular mass of propanoic acid, also known as propionic acid, is approximately 74.08 g/mol.

As the molecular mass of a nonpolar liquids increase the boiling points does what?

If the mass increases with the volume (ie if the density remains the same) then the boiling point remains constant. If the volume remains contstant with rising mass (ie greater density) then the boiling point increases.

How many moles of water can be produced by burning 325g of octane in excess oxygen?

Balanced equation: 2C8H18 + 25O2 ==> 16CO2 + 18H2O
moles of octane used: 325 g x 1 mole/114g = 2.85 moles octane
moles H2O produced: 18 moles H2O/2 moles C8H18 x 2.85 moles C8H18 = 25.65 moles H2O

3 L of a gas weighs 2 g What is the molecular mass?

3 L / 22.414 /mole = 0.1338 moles of the gas

2 g is 0.1338 moles, or 2/0.1338 = 14.948 g/mole is the molecular weight.

( no real gas this light...methane is closest at 16 g/mole)

How do you solve for moles in chemistry?

The solving of mole to mole problems through stoichiometry is based in ratios. Assuming the reaction formulas are simplified and balanced the moles consumed and produced can be calculated. For example in the simple combustion reaction of ethane and oxygen of:CH4 + 2O2 = CO2 +2H20 we see a molar ratio of 1:2 between methane combusted and waters produced.

What is 5.25 atoms of chloride how many moles?

1 mole has 6,022 140 857.10e23 atoms.
Fractions of atoms (as 5,25) doen't exist.

What is the molecular mass of NH3 when The atomic mass of N is 1401 gmole and the atomic mass of H is 1008 gmole?

Molecular mass = sum of all atoms masses = 1(molN/mol NH3)*14.01(g/mol N) + 3(molH/mol NH3)*1.008(g/mol H) = 17.03 g/mol NH3
