Find the molar mass, M, for aluminum nitride: 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: AlN Use the chemical formula to count the number of atoms, N_i, for each element:  | number of atoms  Al (aluminum) | 1  N (nitrogen) | 1 Look up the atomic mass, m_i, in g·mol^(-1) for each element in the periodic table:  | number of atoms | atomic mass/g·mol^(-1)  Al (aluminum) | 1 | 26.9815385  N (nitrogen) | 1 | 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: |   | | number of atoms | atomic mass/g·mol^(-1) | mass/g·mol^(-1)  Al (aluminum) | 1 | 26.9815385 | 1 × 26.9815385 = 26.9815385  N (nitrogen) | 1 | 14.007 | 1 × 14.007 = 14.007  M = 26.9815385 g/mol + 14.007 g/mol = 40.989 g/mol
