1-(1-adamantyl)pyridinium bromide | molar mass
Result
Find the molar mass, M, for 1-(1-adamantyl)pyridinium bromide: M = sum _iN_im_i Plan: • Write the chemical formula and gather atomic masses from the periodic table. • Determine values for N_i and m_i using these items. • Finally, compute the mass. Write the chemical formula: C_15H_20BrN Use the chemical formula, C_15H_20BrN, to count the number of atoms, N_i, for each element: | N_i Br (bromine) | 1 C (carbon) | 15 H (hydrogen) | 20 N (nitrogen) | 1 Look up the atomic mass, m_i, in g·mol^(-1) for each element in the periodic table: | N_i | m_i/g·mol^(-1) Br (bromine) | 1 | 79.904 C (carbon) | 15 | 12.011 H (hydrogen) | 20 | 1.008 N (nitrogen) | 1 | 14.007 Multiply N_i by m_i to compute the mass for each element. Then sum those values to compute the molar mass, M: Answer: | | | N_i | m_i/g·mol^(-1) | mass/g·mol^(-1) Br (bromine) | 1 | 79.904 | 1 × 79.904 = 79.904 C (carbon) | 15 | 12.011 | 15 × 12.011 = 180.165 H (hydrogen) | 20 | 1.008 | 20 × 1.008 = 20.160 N (nitrogen) | 1 | 14.007 | 1 × 14.007 = 14.007 M = 79.904 g/mol + 180.165 g/mol + 20.160 g/mol + 14.007 g/mol = 294.236 g/mol
