A mole of a substance has a mass in grams that is equal to the molecular mass. For example, a carbon atom has a mass of 12.01 u. A mole of carbon has a mass of 12.01 g. Based on their molecular masses, list the molar massof each substance:Fe2O3__________CO __________Fe __________CO2__________ slader

Respuesta :

Answer:

M(Fe₂O₃) = 159.70 g/mol

M(CO) = 28.01 g/mol

M(Fe) = 55.85 g/mol

M(CO₂) = 44.01 g/mol

Explanation:

We can calculate the molar mass of a compound by summing the molar masses of the elements that form it.

Fe₂O₃

M(Fe₂O₃) = 2 × M(Fe) + 3 × M(O) = 2 × 55.85 g/mol + 3 × 16.00 g/mol = 159.70 g/mol

CO

M(CO) = 1 × M(C) + 1 × M(O) = 1 × 12.01 g/mol + 1 × 16.00 g/mol = 28.01 g/mol

Fe

M(Fe) = 1 × M(Fe) = 1 × 55.85 g/mol = 55.85 g/mol

CO₂

M(CO₂) = 1 × M(C) + 2 × M(O) = 1 × 12.01 g/mol + 2 × 16.00 g/mol = 44.01 g/mol
