(a) Calculate the relative molecular mass of water `(H_(2)O)`. (b) Calculate the molecular mass of `HNO_(3)`.

Answer» (a) Atomic mass of hydrogen = 1u, oxygen = 16 u
So the molecular mass of water, which contains two atoms of hydrogen and one atom of oxygen is = 2 × 1+ 1×16 = 18 u
(b) The molecular mass of `HNO_(3)` = the atomic mass of H + the atomic mass of N+ 3 × the atomic mass of O
= 1 + 14 + 48 = 63 u
