Calculate the molar mass of a compound if 0.366 mole of it has a mass of 260.0 g. Round your answer to three significant digits.

1 answer

The molar mass of a compound is calculated by dividing the mass of the compound by the number of moles of the compound.

Molar mass = mass of compound / number of moles of compound

In this case, the mass of the compound is 260.0 g and the number of moles of the compound is 0.366 mol.

Molar mass = 260.0 g / 0.366 mol = 710.409836 g/mol

Rounding to three significant digits, the molar mass of the compound is 710 g/mol.
