Frequently Asked Questions

What is the molar mass of Ammonium chloride?

The molar mass of Ammonium chloride (NH4Cl) is 53.489 g/mol. That is the sum of the standard atomic weights of all 6 atoms in one formula unit: 1 × 35.450 + 1 × 14.007 + 4 × 1.008 = 53.489.

What is the molecular weight of Ammonium chloride?

53.489 — the same number as the molar mass, but as a dimensionless ratio rather than in g/mol. The two terms describe the same arithmetic, so a molecular weight of 53.49 and a molar mass of 53.49 g/mol are the same answer.

How many moles are in 100 g of Ammonium chloride?

100 ÷ 53.489 = 1.8695 mol. To convert any mass to moles, divide by the molar mass; to go the other way, multiply.

What is the percent composition of Ammonium chloride?

By mass, Ammonium chloride is 66.28% chlorine, 26.19% nitrogen, 7.54% hydrogen. Each element's share is its total mass in the formula divided by 53.489.

How many atoms are in one formula unit of Ammonium chloride?

6: 1 chlorine, 1 nitrogen, 4 hydrogen. One mole contains 6.02214076 × 10²³ formula units, so a mole of Ammonium chloride contains 6 × 6.022 × 10²³ atoms in total.
