Question

Calculate the molar mass of (NH4)2SO4. molar mass of (NH4)2SO4=__N*__+__*__+__*__+__ O*__=__ g/mol (total)

Answer 1

Answer:

132 g/mol

Explanation:

(NH₄)₂SO₄ has 2 nitrogen atoms, 8 hydrogen atoms, 1 sulfur atom, and 4 oxygen atoms.

From the periodic table, the molar mass of each element is:

N: 14.0 g/mol

H: 1.01 g/mol

S: 32.1 g/mol

O: 16.0 g/mol

So the molar mass of the compound is:

2N × (14.0 g/mol N) + 8H × (1.01 g/mol H) + 1S × (32.1 g/mol S) + 4O × (16.0 g/mol O)

= 28.0 + 8.08 + 32.1 + 64.0 g/mol

= 132 g/mol

If you need more precision, use more significant figures for the element molar masses.
