potassium hexafluoroantimonate(V) | molar mass
Result
![Find the molar mass, M, for potassium hexafluoroantimonate(V): 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: KSbF_6 Use the chemical formula to count the number of atoms, N_i, for each element: | N_i F (fluorine) | 6 K (potassium) | 1 Sb (antimony) | 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) F (fluorine) | 6 | 18.998403163 K (potassium) | 1 | 39.0983 Sb (antimony) | 1 | 121.760 Multiply N_i by m_i to compute the mass for each element.
