Question

the molar mass of carbon dioxide (co₂) is

Explanation:

Step1: Find molar mass of each element

Molar mass of \(C = 12.01\space g/mol\), molar mass of \(O=16.00\space g/mol\)

Step2: Calculate molar mass of \(CO_2\)

\(M(CO_2)=M(C)+2\times M(O)\)
\(M(CO_2)=12.01 + 2\times16.00\)
\(M(CO_2)=12.01+32.00\)
\(M(CO_2)=44.01\space g/mol\)

Answer:

\(44.01\space g/mol\)
