  • Carbon Molecular Weight: Atomic Weight & Common Compounds
    The molecular weight of carbon depends on what form of carbon you are referring to.

    * Atomic Carbon (C): The atomic weight of carbon is 12.011 amu.

    * Carbon Dioxide (CO2): The molecular weight of carbon dioxide is 44.01 g/mol. This includes the weight of one carbon atom and two oxygen atoms.

    * Other Carbon Molecules: The molecular weight of other carbon molecules, like methane (CH4), will be different depending on the other atoms present in the molecule.

    So, to be precise, you need to specify which form of carbon you are asking about.
