Molar Mass of CH3COOH

How to work out the molar mass of CH3COOH

  1. Count the atoms of each element in CH3COOH: 2 C, 4 H and 2 O.
  2. Multiply each count by the element's atomic weight: 2 × 12.011 = 24.022; 4 × 1.008 = 4.032; 2 × 15.999 = 31.998.
  3. Add the results: 24.022 + 4.032 + 31.998 = 60.052 g/mol.
