calculate the RAM of Sodium Trioxonitrate (V)

1 answer

To calculate the RAM (Relative Atomic Mass) of Sodium Trioxonitrate (V), we need to know the atomic masses of the elements involved: Sodium (Na), Nitrogen (N), and Oxygen (O), and their respective numbers in the compound.

The formula for Sodium Trioxonitrate (V) is NaNO3.

The atomic mass of Sodium (Na) is 22.99 g/mol.
The atomic mass of Nitrogen (N) is 14.01 g/mol.
The atomic mass of Oxygen (O) is 16.00 g/mol.

In the compound NaNO3, there is 1 Sodium atom (Na), 1 Nitrogen atom (N), and 3 Oxygen atoms (O).

Calculating the RAM:
RAM = (1 * atomic mass of Na) + (1 * atomic mass of N) + (3 * atomic mass of O)
= (1 * 22.99) + (1 * 14.01) + (3 * 16.00)
= 22.99 + 14.01 + 48.00
= 85.00 g/mol

Therefore, the RAM of Sodium Trioxonitrate (V) is 85.00 g/mol.
