  • Calculating the Atomic Mass of NH₄Cl: A Step-by-Step Guide
    Here's how to calculate the atomic mass of NH₄Cl (ammonium chloride):

    1. Find the atomic masses of each element:

    * N (Nitrogen): 14.01 amu

    * H (Hydrogen): 1.01 amu

    * Cl (Chlorine): 35.45 amu

    2. Multiply the atomic mass of each element by its subscript in the formula:

    * N: 14.01 amu * 1 = 14.01 amu

    * H: 1.01 amu * 4 = 4.04 amu

    * Cl: 35.45 amu * 1 = 35.45 amu

    3. Add the results together:

    14.01 amu + 4.04 amu + 35.45 amu = 53.50 amu

    Therefore, the atomic mass of NH₄Cl is 53.50 amu.
