1, 4-diiodotetrafluorobenzene | molar mass
Result
Find the molar mass, M, for 1, 4-diiodotetrafluorobenzene: 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_6F_4I_2 Use the chemical formula to count the number of atoms, N_i, for each element: | N_i C (carbon) | 6 F (fluorine) | 4 I (iodine) | 2 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) C (carbon) | 6 | 12.011 F (fluorine) | 4 | 18.998403163 I (iodine) | 2 | 126.90447 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) C (carbon) | 6 | 12.011 | 6 × 12.011 = 72.066 F (fluorine) | 4 | 18.998403163 | 4 × 18.998403163 = 75.993612652 I (iodine) | 2 | 126.90447 | 2 × 126.90447 = 253.80894 M = 72.066 g/mol + 75.993612652 g/mol + 253.80894 g/mol = 401.869 g/mol
