dinitrogen pentoxide | molar mass
Result
![Find the molar mass, M, for dinitrogen pentoxide: 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: N_2O_5 Use the chemical formula to count the number of atoms, N_i, for each element: | N_i N (nitrogen) | 2 O (oxygen) | 5 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) N (nitrogen) | 2 | 14.007 O (oxygen) | 5 | 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) N (nitrogen) | 2 | 14.007 | 2 × 14.007 = 28.014 O (oxygen) | 5 | 15.999 | 5 × 15.999 = 79.995 M = 28.014 g/mol + 79.995 g/mol = 108.009 g/mol](../image_source/cb4dc8b51751abcc31717fbd9c39726a.png)
