1, 1, 1, 3, 3-pentafluoropropane | molar mass
Result
Find the molar mass, M, for 1, 1, 1, 3, 3-pentafluoropropane: 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_3H_3F_5 Use the chemical formula, C_3H_3F_5, to count the number of atoms, N_i, for each element: | N_i C (carbon) | 3 F (fluorine) | 5 H (hydrogen) | 3 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) | 3 | 12.011 F (fluorine) | 5 | 18.998403163 H (hydrogen) | 3 | 1.008 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) | 3 | 12.011 | 3 × 12.011 = 36.033 F (fluorine) | 5 | 18.998403163 | 5 × 18.998403163 = 94.992015815 H (hydrogen) | 3 | 1.008 | 3 × 1.008 = 3.024 M = 36.033 g/mol + 94.992015815 g/mol + 3.024 g/mol = 134.049 g/mol
