Answer:


44~(g)/(mol)

Step-by-step explanation:

If we want to calculate the molar mass of this compound we have to find the atomic masses of each atom, in this case:

Oxygen =
16~(g)/(mol)

Carbon=
12~(g)/(mol)

Then we have to multiply the atomic mass by the number of atoms in the compound, so:


(16*2)+(12*1)=~44(g)/(mol)
