(1-propylheptadecyl)benzene | molar mass
Result
![Find the molar mass, M, for (1-propylheptadecyl)benzene: 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_26H_46 Use the chemical formula, C_26H_46, to count the number of atoms, N_i, for each element: | N_i C (carbon) | 26 H (hydrogen) | 46 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) | 26 | 12.011 H (hydrogen) | 46 | 1.008 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) | 26 | 12.011 | 26 × 12.011 = 312.286 H (hydrogen) | 46 | 1.008 | 46 × 1.008 = 46.368 M = 312.286 g/mol + 46.368 g/mol = 358.654 g/mol](../image_source/63a9a7aa8f4ef568a81686bb50384f22.png)
