diphenyl azidophosphate | molar mass
Result
Find the molar mass, M, for diphenyl azidophosphate: 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_6H_5O)_2P(O)N_3 Use the chemical formula, (C_6H_5O)_2P(O)N_3, to count the number of atoms, N_i, for each element: | N_i C (carbon) | 12 H (hydrogen) | 10 N (nitrogen) | 3 O (oxygen) | 3 P (phosphorus) | 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) C (carbon) | 12 | 12.011 H (hydrogen) | 10 | 1.008 N (nitrogen) | 3 | 14.007 O (oxygen) | 3 | 15.999 P (phosphorus) | 1 | 30.973761998 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) | 12 | 12.011 | 12 × 12.011 = 144.132 H (hydrogen) | 10 | 1.008 | 10 × 1.008 = 10.080 N (nitrogen) | 3 | 14.007 | 3 × 14.007 = 42.021 O (oxygen) | 3 | 15.999 | 3 × 15.999 = 47.997 P (phosphorus) | 1 | 30.973761998 | 1 × 30.973761998 = 30.973761998 M = 144.132 g/mol + 10.080 g/mol + 42.021 g/mol + 47.997 g/mol + 30.973761998 g/mol = 275.204 g/mol
