In order to determine the molecular formula of a compound from its percent composition, it is necessary to know the molar mass of the compound. TRUE FALSE True?

RhondaSommer (rhondasommer):

:D

OpenStudy (sweetburger):

Hmm I dont think you need the molar mass. IM going to go with false.

RhondaSommer (rhondasommer):

But didnt we need the molar mass to find the percentage?

OpenStudy (sweetburger):

Molar mass of the individual elements we did need. We however did not need to know the molar mass of the entire compound.

RhondaSommer (rhondasommer):

we did (2(molar mass of carbon) / 60 )*100

RhondaSommer (rhondasommer):

OHHHHHH ok

RhondaSommer (rhondasommer):

trickey trickey .-.

OpenStudy (sweetburger):

yes indeed

RhondaSommer (rhondasommer):
