Be sure to answer all parts. Give the number of atoms of the specified element in the formula unit of the following compound, and calculate the molecular (formula) mass of the compound: oxygen in the mineral azurite, Cu3(OH)2(CO3)2 Number O atoms:atoms Molecular mass: amu
Solution
No of oxygen atoms=8
There are 3 copper atoms
8 oxygen atoms,2 hydrogen atoms, two carbon atoms
molar mass=(3*63.546)+(8*16)+(2)+(2*12)=344.638 amu
