Element | Total atoms | Atomic mass | Total mass |
---|---|---|---|
C (Carbon) | 1 | 12.0107 | 12.0107 |
H (Hydrogen) | 2 | 1.00794 | 2.01588 |
O (Oxygen) | 3 | 15.9994 | 47.9982 |
62.02478 |
- Mr[CH2O3] = Ar[C] + Ar[H] * 2 + Ar[O] * 3 = 12.0107 + 1.00794 * 2 + 15.9994 * 3 = 62.02478
- Molar mass (kg/mol) = Mr[CH2O3] : 1000 = 62.02478 : 1000 = 0.06202 kg/mol
- Carbon (C) = 12.0107 : 62.02478 * 100 = 19.364 %
- Hydrogen (H) = 2.01588 : 62.02478 * 100 = 3.25 %
- Oxygen (O) = 47.9982 : 62.02478 * 100 = 77.386 %
