calculate the molar mass of NH4NO3 or ammonium nitrate

1 answer

To calculate the molar mass of NH4NO3, we need to find the atomic mass of each individual element in the compound and then add them together.

The molecular formula of ammonium nitrate is NH4NO3:
Nitrogen (N) atomic mass = 14.01 g/mol
Hydrogen (H) atomic mass = 1.01 g/mol
Oxygen (O) atomic mass = 16.00 g/mol

The molar mass of NH4NO3 can be calculated as follows:
(1*14.01) + (4*1.01) + (3*16.00)
= 14.01 + 4.04 + 48.00
= 66.05 g/mol

Therefore, the molar mass of NH4NO3 (ammonium nitrate) is 66.05 g/mol.
