Molar Mass of a Compound

The molar mass of a compound is the sum of the molar masses of the elements in the formula.

Example: Calculate the molar mass of CaCl2.

Element Number of Moles

Atomic Mass Total Mass

Ca 1 40.08 g/mol 40.08 g

Cl 2 35.45 g/mol 70.90 g

CaCl2 110.98 g

A. K2O 94.20 g/mol

2 mol K (39.10 g/mol) + 1 mol O (16.00 g/mol)

78.20 g + 16.00 g = 94.20 g

B. Al(OH)3 78.00 g/mol

1 mol Al (26.98 g/mol) + 3 mol O (16.00 g/mol) + 3 mol H (1.008 g/mol) 26.98 g + 48.00 g + 3.024 g = 78.00 g

Prozac, C17H18F3NO, is an antidepressant that inhibits the uptake of serotonin by the brain. What is the molar mass of Prozac?

3) 309.3 g/mol

17C (12.01) + 18H (1.008) + 3F (19.00)

+ 1N (14.01) + 1 O (16.00) =

204.2 +18.14 + 57.00 + 14.01 + 16.00 = 309.3 g/mol
