Determine the Molar Mass of Nonane,C9H20

To determine the molar mass of nonane (C9H20), you first need to calculate the molar mass of each individual element in the compound.

Carbon (C) has a molar mass of approximately 12.011 g/mol, while hydrogen (H) has a molar mass of approximately 1.008 g/mol.

So, to calculate the molar mass of nonane, you would add up the molar masses of all the carbon and hydrogen atoms in the compound:

9 x 12.011 g/mol (for carbon) + 20 x 1.008 g/mol (for hydrogen) = 108.099 g/mol + 20.16 g/mol = 128.259 g/mol

Therefore, the molar mass of nonane (C9H20) is approximately 128.259 g/mol.
