What is the relative formula mass (Mr) of a compound in which 1.4 moles equals 84g?

1 answer

To find the relative formula mass (Mr) of a compound when given the number of moles and the mass, you can use the formula:

\[ \text{Relative formula mass (Mr)} = \frac{\text{mass (g)}}{\text{number of moles}} \]

In this case, you're given:

  • Mass = 84 g
  • Number of moles = 1.4 moles

Now, plug the values into the formula:

\[ \text{Mr} = \frac{84 , \text{g}}{1.4 , \text{moles}} = 60 , \text{g/mol} \]

Thus, the relative formula mass (Mr) of the compound is 60 g/mol.
