* Find the atomic weights:
* Sodium (Na): 22.99 g/mol
* Sulfur (S): 32.06 g/mol
* Multiply the atomic weights by the number of atoms in the formula:
* Na: 22.99 g/mol * 2 = 45.98 g/mol
* S: 32.06 g/mol * 1 = 32.06 g/mol
* Add the results together:
* 45.98 g/mol + 32.06 g/mol = 78.04 g/mol
Therefore, the molecular weight of Na₂S is 78.04 g/mol.
