This problem requires that you know nomenclature, to identify the formula of the compond from its name, and the way how to determine the formula mass once you know formula.

1) Nomenclature: Chromate

Chromate is an ion (anion) from the chromic acid.

Chromic acid is formed from Chromic oxyde with the atomic number 6.

Then Cr + O2 -> Cr2O6 = CrO3

CrO3 + H2O -> H2CrO4

H2CrO4 = 2H(+) + CrO4 (2-) <---- this is the ion chromate

Now you have to join the chromate ion with the sodium ion => Na2 (CrO4)

2) Now you can calculate the molar mass of the formula Na2(CrO4).

You must only muliply every subscript times the atomic mass of the element:

Na2 => 2 * 23 g/mol = 46 g/mol

Cr => 52 g/mol

O4 => 4 * 16g/mol = 64 g/mol

Formula mass = 46 g/mol + 52 g/mol + 64 g/mol = 162 g/mol

I used the numbers with less significant figures thant the problem required but the answer is evident. Also, g / mol = a.m.u = atomic mass unit.

Answer: 161.97 a.m.u

In a combustion analysis, the carbon in a hydrocarbon fuel is
scoray [572]
During a combustion reaction the carbon in a hydrocarbon compound is paired with Oxygen (O2) in the air to form Carbon-Dioxide (CO2), whilst the Hydrogen too pairs with Oxygen to form water vapour (H2O). Heat is also produced during this reaction.

Why do the spectra of the molecular species show broader bands compared to atomic spectra such as that seen for the hydrogen ato
Olenka [21]

Explanation:

The  atomic spectrum is more like the transitions of electrons among electronic energy levels in an isolated atom. Atomic spectrum is mainly affected by interaction of the transitioning electrons between the nuclei spins and between the other electrons in the same atom.

However, molecular spectrum involve transition of electrons in molecules with two and more atoms(it can be in the same or different). Also, the valence electrons are now in different orbitals than that of  the atomic orbitals and the orbital structure has changed the electronic transitions are different
