Find the molar mass, M, for calcium permanganate: 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: CaMn_2O_8 Use the chemical formula to count the number of atoms, N_i, for each element:  | N_i  Ca (calcium) | 1  Mn (manganese) | 2  O (oxygen) | 8 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)  Ca (calcium) | 1 | 40.078  Mn (manganese) | 2 | 54.938044  O (oxygen) | 8 | 15.999 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)  Ca (calcium) | 1 | 40.078 | 1 × 40.078 = 40.078  Mn (manganese) | 2 | 54.938044 | 2 × 54.938044 = 109.876088  O (oxygen) | 8 | 15.999 | 8 × 15.999 = 127.992  M = 40.078 g/mol + 109.876088 g/mol + 127.992 g/mol = 277.946 g/mol
