Answer :
The molar mass of ammonium carbonate is 96 g/mol. Smelling salts are no longer used by people.
The molar mass of a compound refers to the mass of 1 mole of that substance.
The chemical formula of ammonium carbonate is (NH₄)₂CO₃
We can determine the number of atoms of each element in the compound from its chemical formula. Then we multiply the atomic weight of each element by its number of atoms in the compound and then add them together.
The atomic weight of the atoms in ammonium carbonate is as follows;
Nitrogen (N) = 14 u
Hydrogen (H) = 1 u
Carbon (C) = 12 u
Oxygen (O) = 16 u
Now multiplying each element's atomic weight by its number of atoms in the compound as follows;
Nitrogen = 14 × 2 = 28
Hydrogen = 1 × (4 × 2) = 8
Carbon = 12 × 1 = 12
Oxygen = 16 × 3 = 48
Adding them together;
Molar mass = 48 + 12 + 8 + 28 = 96 g/mol
Smelling salts are no longer used but ammonium carbonate is still sometimes used as a leaving agent.
