  • Calculate Molar Mass: KI and CaCl₂ - A Step-by-Step Guide
    Here's how to calculate the molar mass of KI and CaCl₂ using the periodic table:

    KI (Potassium Iodide)

    1. Find the atomic masses:

    - Potassium (K): 39.10 g/mol

    - Iodine (I): 126.90 g/mol

    2. Add the atomic masses:

    - Molar mass of KI = 39.10 g/mol + 126.90 g/mol = 166.00 g/mol

    Therefore, the molar mass of KI is 166.00 g/mol.

    CaCl₂ (Calcium Chloride)

    1. Find the atomic masses:

    - Calcium (Ca): 40.08 g/mol

    - Chlorine (Cl): 35.45 g/mol

    2. Multiply the atomic mass of chlorine by 2 (since there are two chlorine atoms):

    - 35.45 g/mol * 2 = 70.90 g/mol

    3. Add the atomic masses:

    - Molar mass of CaCl₂ = 40.08 g/mol + 70.90 g/mol = 110.98 g/mol

    Therefore, the molar mass of CaCl₂ is 110.98 g/mol.
