2, 3, 4, 5, 6-pentafluorobenzylzinc bromide | molar mass
Result
Find the molar mass, M, for 2, 3, 4, 5, 6-pentafluorobenzylzinc bromide: 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_6F_5CH_2ZnBr Use the chemical formula to count the number of atoms, N_i, for each element: | N_i Br (bromine) | 1 C (carbon) | 7 F (fluorine) | 5 H (hydrogen) | 2 Zn (zinc) | 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) Br (bromine) | 1 | 79.904 C (carbon) | 7 | 12.011 F (fluorine) | 5 | 18.998403163 H (hydrogen) | 2 | 1.008 Zn (zinc) | 1 | 65.38 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) Br (bromine) | 1 | 79.904 | 1 × 79.904 = 79.904 C (carbon) | 7 | 12.011 | 7 × 12.011 = 84.077 F (fluorine) | 5 | 18.998403163 | 5 × 18.998403163 = 94.992015815 H (hydrogen) | 2 | 1.008 | 2 × 1.008 = 2.016 Zn (zinc) | 1 | 65.38 | 1 × 65.38 = 65.38 M = 79.904 g/mol + 84.077 g/mol + 94.992015815 g/mol + 2.016 g/mol + 65.38 g/mol = 326.37 g/mol
