chlorine azide | molar mass
Result
![Find the molar mass, M, for chlorine azide: 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: ClN_3 Use the chemical formula to count the number of atoms, N_i, for each element: | N_i Cl (chlorine) | 1 N (nitrogen) | 3 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) Cl (chlorine) | 1 | 35.45 N (nitrogen) | 3 | 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) Cl (chlorine) | 1 | 35.45 | 1 × 35.45 = 35.45 N (nitrogen) | 3 | 14.007 | 3 × 14.007 = 42.021 M = 35.45 g/mol + 42.021 g/mol = 77.47 g/mol](../image_source/1308eed6c70bbb30b376e05910850437.png)
