Result
![Find the molecular mass, m, for trimethylphenylphosphonium iodide: 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_5P(CH_3)_3I Use the chemical formula to count the number of atoms, N_i, for each element: | N_i C (carbon) | 9 H (hydrogen) | 14 I (iodine) | 1 P (phosphorus) | 1 Look up the atomic mass, m_i, in unified atomic mass units, u, for each element in the periodic table: | N_i | m_i/u C (carbon) | 9 | 12.011 H (hydrogen) | 14 | 1.008 I (iodine) | 1 | 126.90447 P (phosphorus) | 1 | 30.973761998 Multiply N_i by m_i to compute the mass for each element.
