Element | Total atoms | Atomic mass | Total mass |
---|---|---|---|
C (Carbon) | 1 | 12.0107 | 12.0107 |
H (Hydrogen) | 2 | 1.00794 | 2.01588 |
O (Oxygen) | 2 | 15.9994 | 31.9988 |
46.02538 |
- Mr[HCOOH] = Ar[C] + Ar[H] * 2 + Ar[O] * 2 = 12.0107 + 1.00794 * 2 + 15.9994 * 2 = 46.02538
- Molar mass (kg/mol) = Mr[HCOOH] : 1000 = 46.02538 : 1000 = 0.04603 kg/mol
- Carbon (C) = 12.0107 : 46.02538 * 100 = 26.096 %
- Hydrogen (H) = 2.01588 : 46.02538 * 100 = 4.38 %
- Oxygen (O) = 31.9988 : 46.02538 * 100 = 69.524 %
