manganese(II) fluoride | molar mass
Result
Find the molar mass, M, for manganese(II) fluoride: 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: MnF_2 Use the chemical formula, MnF_2, to count the number of atoms, N_i, for each element: | N_i F (fluorine) | 2 Mn (manganese) | 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) F (fluorine) | 2 | 18.998403163 Mn (manganese) | 1 | 54.938044 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) F (fluorine) | 2 | 18.998403163 | 2 × 18.998403163 = 37.996806326 Mn (manganese) | 1 | 54.938044 | 1 × 54.938044 = 54.938044 M = 37.996806326 g/mol + 54.938044 g/mol = 92.934850 g/mol
