The molecular mass of methyl ethanoate is 75.1 amu . calculate the molecular mass of propanoic acid, an isomer of methyl ethanoate. express your answer with the appropriate units.

Respuesta :

transitionstate
Molecular Formula of Propanoic Acid is....

                                                C₃H₆O₂
Where;

Atomic Mass of C  =  12

Atomic Mass of H  =  1

Atomic Mass of O  =  6

Substituting Atomic Masses in molecular formula,

                                                (12)₃ + (1)₆ + (16)₂

                                                   36  +  6  +  32

                                                        74 g/mol

Result:
            Molecular Mass of Propanoic Acid is 74 g/mol. Structure of Methyl Ethanoate and Propanoic Acid are as follow,
