Result
![Find the molar mass, M, for europium(III) sulfate hydrate: 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: Eu_2(SO_4)_3·xH_2O Use the chemical formula, Eu_2(SO_4)_3·xH_2O, to count the number of atoms, N_i, for each element: | N_i Eu (europium) | 2 H (hydrogen) | 2 O (oxygen) | 13 S (sulfur) | 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) Eu (europium) | 2 | 151.964 H (hydrogen) | 2 | 1.008 O (oxygen) | 13 | 15.999 S (sulfur) | 3 | 32.06 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) Eu (europium) | 2 | 151.964 | 2 × 151.964 = 303.928 H (hydrogen) | 2 | 1.008 | 2 × 1.008 = 2.016 O (oxygen) | 13 | 15.999 | 13 × 15.999 = 207.987 S (sulfur) | 3 | 32.06 | 3 × 32.06 = 96.18 M = 303.928 g/mol + 2.016 g/mol + 207.987 g/mol + 96.18 g/mol = 610.11 g/mol](../image_source/3b2a44f473849cc9754fdbf858dbb56d.png)
