Calculate the formula unit masses of ZnO, `Na_(2)O, K_(2)CO_(3)`, given atomic masses of Zn = 65 u, Na = 23 u, K = 39 u, C = 12 u, and O = 16 u. |

Answer» (i) Formula mass of `ZnO =` Mass of Zn atom + Mass of O atom `= 65 + 16` `= 81 u` (ii) Formula mass of `Na_(2)O =` Mass of 2Na atoms + Mass of O `= 2 xx 23 + 16` `= 46 +16` `= 62 u` (iii) Formula mass of `K_(2)CO_(3)` (See Sample Problem on page `138` of this book). |
