calculate he relative molecular mass of water(H2O)....?
Relative molecular mass of a compound can be found by adding the relative atomic mass of the elements present in the compound. It is the mass of a molecules of the compound in comparison to the mass of an atom of C-12 taken as 12.
For H2O molecule -
Relative mass of hydrogen (H) = 1u
Relative mass of oxygen (O) = 16u
According to the formula of water contains 2 hydrogen atoms,
So, relative mass of water = 2 *( 1u ) + 16u
= 18u
So, Relative mass of water = 18u
