1-hexyn-3-ol | molar mass
Result
Find the molar mass, M, for 1-hexyn-3-ol: 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_10O Use the chemical formula, C_6H_10O, to count the number of atoms, N_i, for each element: | N_i C (carbon) | 6 H (hydrogen) | 10 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) | 6 | 12.011 H (hydrogen) | 10 | 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) | 6 | 12.011 | 6 × 12.011 = 72.066 H (hydrogen) | 10 | 1.008 | 10 × 1.008 = 10.080 O (oxygen) | 1 | 15.999 | 1 × 15.999 = 15.999 M = 72.066 g/mol + 10.080 g/mol + 15.999 g/mol = 98.145 g/mol
