Answer

dl 44.11g/mol

Explanation

Step1: Identify the elements and their atomic masses The compound C3H8 contains carbon (C) and hydrogen (H). The atomic mass of carbon is 12.01 g/mol, and the atomic mass of hydrogen is 1.01 g/mol. Step2: Multiply the atomic mass of each element by its subscript in the formula Carbon has a subscript of 3, so its contribution to the molar mass is 3 * 12.01 g/mol = 36.03 g/mol. Hydrogen has a subscript of 8, so its contribution is 8 * 1.01 g/mol = 8.08 g/mol. Step3: Add the contributions of each element The molar mass of C3H8 is 36.03 g/mol + 8.08 g/mol = 44.11 g/mol.
