What is the molar mass of C₆H₁₂O₆? (H = 1, C = 12, N = 14, O = 16, Na = 23, Mg = 24, Al = 27, S = 32, Cl = 35.5, K = 39, Ca = 40, Mn = 55, Fe = 56)
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: D. 180 g/mol
- Step 1: Add the atomic masses of all the atoms in the formula. Step 2. C₆H₁₂O₆: 6 × 12 + 12 × 1 + 6 × 16 = 180 g/mol. Answer: 180 g/mol. Why not the others: 106 g/mol is what you get if you use the molar mass of Na₂CO₃. 36.5 g/mol is what you get if you use the molar mass of HCl. 63 g/mol is what you get if you use the molar mass of HNO₃.
