Input interpretation
2, 3, 5, 6-tetrafluoro-4-(trifluoromethyl)phenol | molar mass
Result
Find the molar mass, M, for 2, 3, 5, 6-tetrafluoro-4-(trifluoromethyl)phenol: 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: CF_3C_6F_4OH Use the chemical formula to count the number of atoms, N_i, for each element: | N_i C (carbon) | 7 F (fluorine) | 7 H (hydrogen) | 1 O (oxygen) | 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) | 7 | 12.011 F (fluorine) | 7 | 18.998403163 H (hydrogen) | 1 | 1.008 O (oxygen) | 1 | 15.999 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) | 7 | 12.011 | 7 × 12.011 = 84.077 F (fluorine) | 7 | 18.998403163 | 7 × 18.998403163 = 132.988822141 H (hydrogen) | 1 | 1.008 | 1 × 1.008 = 1.008 O (oxygen) | 1 | 15.999 | 1 × 15.999 = 15.999 M = 84.077 g/mol + 132.988822141 g/mol + 1.008 g/mol + 15.999 g/mol = 234.073 g/mol
