Calculate the formula unit masses of ZnO, Na2O, K2C03, given atomic masses of Zn = 65 u, Na = 23 u, K = 39 u, C = 12 u, and O = 16 u.
The formula unit mass of
(i) ZnO
= 65 u + 16 u
= 81 u
(ii) Na2O
= (23 u x 2) + 16 u
= 46 u + 16 u
= 62 u
(iii) K2C03
= (39 u x 2) + 12 u + 16 u x 3
= 78 u + 12 u + 48 u
= 138 u
