Vedclass · Answer

(A) $(i)$ Molecular mass of $C_2H_4$ (ethene):$= (	ext{Atomic mass of C} 	imes 2) + (	ext{Atomic mass of H} 	imes 4)$$= (12 	imes 2) + (1 	imes 4) = 24 + 4 = 28\,u$.$(ii)$ Molecular mass of $NH_3$ (ammonia):$= (	ext{Atomic mass of N} 	imes 1) + (	ext{Atomic mass of H} 	imes 3)$$= (14 	imes 1) + (1 	imes 3) = 14 + 3 = 17\,u$.$(iii)$ Molecular mass of $CH_3OH$ (methanol):$= (	ext{Atomic mass of C} 	imes 1) + (	ext{Atomic mass of H} 	imes 4) + (	ext{Atomic mass of O} 	imes 1)$$= (12 	imes 1) + (1 	imes 4) + (16 	imes 1) = 12 + 4 + 16 = 32\,u$.
