1, 10-phenanthroline monohydrochloride | molar mass
Result
Find the molar mass, M, for 1, 10-phenanthroline monohydrochloride: 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: Use the chemical formula to count the number of atoms, N_i, for each element: | N_i C (carbon) | 12 Cl (chlorine) | 1 H (hydrogen) | 9 N (nitrogen) | 2 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) | 12 | 12.011 Cl (chlorine) | 1 | 35.45 H (hydrogen) | 9 | 1.008 N (nitrogen) | 2 | 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: | | | N_i | m_i/g·mol^(-1) | mass/g·mol^(-1) C (carbon) | 12 | 12.011 | 12 × 12.011 = 144.132 Cl (chlorine) | 1 | 35.45 | 1 × 35.45 = 35.45 H (hydrogen) | 9 | 1.008 | 9 × 1.008 = 9.072 N (nitrogen) | 2 | 14.007 | 2 × 14.007 = 28.014 M = 144.132 g/mol + 35.45 g/mol + 9.072 g/mol + 28.014 g/mol = 216.67 g/mol
