lithium tungstate | molar mass
Result
![Find the molar mass, M, for lithium tungstate: 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: Li_2WO_4 Use the chemical formula, Li_2WO_4, to count the number of atoms, N_i, for each element: | N_i Li (lithium) | 2 O (oxygen) | 4 W (tungsten) | 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) Li (lithium) | 2 | 6.94 O (oxygen) | 4 | 15.999 W (tungsten) | 1 | 183.84 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) Li (lithium) | 2 | 6.94 | 2 × 6.94 = 13.88 O (oxygen) | 4 | 15.999 | 4 × 15.999 = 63.996 W (tungsten) | 1 | 183.84 | 1 × 183.84 = 183.84 M = 13.88 g/mol + 63.996 g/mol + 183.84 g/mol = 261.72 g/mol](../image_source/ee1cbdaec6bff5719776fdfd512af30f.png)
