Answer:
a) [tex]NH_{3}[/tex] = 17 g/mol
b) [tex]SF_{6}[/tex] = 146 g/mol
Explanation:
The molecular weight of a compound is equal to the sum of the atomic weights of the constituent elements.
a) [tex]NH_{3}[/tex]
Atomic weight of N = 14 g/mol
Atomic weight of H = 1 g/mol
Molecular weight = [tex]14\ g/mol + 3(1\ g/mol) = 14 + 3 = 17\ g/mol[/tex]
b) [tex]SF_{6}[/tex]
Atomic weight of S = 32 g/mol
Atomic weight of F = 19 g/mol
Molecular weight = [tex]32\ g/mol + 6(19\ g/mol) = 32 + 114 = 146\ g/mol[/tex]
