Molar Mass of NaHCO3

How to work out the molar mass of NaHCO3

1. Count the atoms of each element in NaHCO3: 1 Na, 1 H, 1 C and 3 O.
2. Multiply each count by the element's atomic weight: 1 × 22.990 = 22.990; 1 × 1.008 = 1.008; 1 × 12.011 = 12.011; 3 × 15.999 = 47.997.
3. Add the results: 22.990 + 1.008 + 12.011 + 47.997 = 84.006 g/mol.
