Final answer:

The molar mass of (NH4)2S is 68.09 g/mol.

Step-by-step explanation:

The molar mass of (NH4)2S can be calculated by adding up the atomic masses of each element in the compound.

The molar mass of NH4 is 14.01 g/mol (from N = 14.01 g/mol and H = 1.01 g/mol, multiplied by 4 because there are 4 hydrogen atoms).

The molar mass of S is 32.07 g/mol.

Therefore, the molar mass of (NH4)2S is (14.01 g/mol + 14.01 g/mol) + 32.07 g/mol = 68.09 g/mol.

Answer:

This compound is Ammonium Sulphide and has molar mass 68 g/mol.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Molar Mass : It is the mass of 1 mole of the substance and in grams.Its units are gram/mole.
  • It is numerically equal to mass of the substance in atomic mass units

How to calculate Molar mass :


(NH_(4))_(2)S = 2(atomic\ mass\ of\ N + 4* mass\ of\ H ) +atomic\  mass\ of\ S


(NH_(4))_(2)S = 2(14 + 4(1) ) + 32


(NH_(4))_(2)S = 2(14 + 4 ) + 32


(NH_(4))_(2)S = 2(18) + 32


(NH_(4))_(2)S = 36 + 32


(NH_(4))_(2)S = 68 grams/mole

Molar mass of Ammonium sulphide is 68 g/mol
