Answer:

387 g/mol

Step-by-step explanation:

The molar mass is a ratio comparing a substance's mass and molar value. The specific ratio looks like this:

Molar Mass (g/mol) = mass (g) / moles

You can plug the given values into the ratio to find the molar mass.

Molar Mass = mass / moles

Molar Mass = 0.406 g / 0.00105 mol

Molar Mass = 387 g/mol
