Find the molar mass, M, for tetrabutylphosphonium chloride: 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: (CH_3CH_2CH_2CH_2)_4P(Cl) Use the chemical formula to count the number of atoms, N_i, for each element:  | N_i  C (carbon) | 16  Cl (chlorine) | 1  H (hydrogen) | 36  P (phosphorus) | 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)  C (carbon) | 16 | 12.011  Cl (chlorine) | 1 | 35.45  H (hydrogen) | 36 | 1.008  P (phosphorus) | 1 | 30.973761998 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) | 16 | 12.011 | 16 × 12.011 = 192.176  Cl (chlorine) | 1 | 35.45 | 1 × 35.45 = 35.45  H (hydrogen) | 36 | 1.008 | 36 × 1.008 = 36.288  P (phosphorus) | 1 | 30.973761998 | 1 × 30.973761998 = 30.973761998  M = 192.176 g/mol + 35.45 g/mol + 36.288 g/mol + 30.973761998 g/mol = 294.89 g/mol
