Calculate the molecular mass of the following:
(i) H2O
(ii) CO2
(iii) CH4
Molecules are made up of atoms & are quite small, therefore the actual mass of a molecule cannot be detrmined.It is expressed as the relative mass.C-12 isotope is used to express the relative molecular masses of substances.Thus molecular mass of a substance may be defined as: the average relative mass of its molecule as compared to the mass of carbon atom taken as 12 amu.
(i) H2O:
The molecular mass of water, H2O
= (2 × Atomic mass of hydrogen) + (1 × Atomic mass of oxygen)
= [2(1.0084) + 1(16.00 u)]
= 2.016 u + 16.00 u
= 18.016
= 18.02 u
(ii) CO2:
The molecular mass of carbon dioxide, CO2
= (1 × Atomic mass of carbon) + (2 × Atomic mass of oxygen)
= [1(12.011 u) + 2 (16.00 u)]
= 12.011 u + 32.00 u
= 44.01 u
(iii) CH4:
The molecular mass of methane, CH4
= (1 × Atomic mass of carbon) + (4 × Atomic mass of hydrogen)
= [1(12.011 u) + 4 (1.008 u)]
= 12.011 u + 4.032 u
= 16.043 u

Nice and easy solution , thanks
Tq a lot . It helped me a lot . Upload question from subject chemistry of 2nd puc. Waiting.............
Its osm tqsm
Please can you give me further answers???
pressure of gas filled in a closed cylinder 273k is 4 atm . calulate the temp of the gas when its pressure is 5 atm pleas send me the ans as soon as posible
