What is the molar mass of Mn(ClO3)2? Explain how you calculated this value. Please please help me!

OpenStudy (aaronq):

use the periodic table and add the molecular masses of each element in the formula together in their respective ratios. 1 Mn + 2( 1Cl + 3 O) =

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what does that mean I don't mean to be annoying I just don't get this

OpenStudy (aaronq):

Do you have a periodic table? It's asking you to add up their individual mass to find the total mass.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What are they? like what am I suppose to add? THANK YOU for helping me !

OpenStudy (aaronq):

You're adding their molar masses/molecular weights (they have different names)

OpenStudy (aaronq):

They're all on the periodic table, for example, chlorine's is 35.45 g/mol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what does mn mean?

OpenStudy (aaronq):

Manganese

OpenStudy (anonymous):

86. 93+ 35.45= 122.38

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what do I do now?

OpenStudy (aaronq):

You need to add Cl 2 times and oxygen 6 times, look at their coefficients

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Mn = 55g/mole Cl = 35.4g/mole x 2 --> 70.8 O = 16g/mole x 6 --> 96 Now just add it up! 55+96+70.8!
