Answer :
The relative formula mass of gold chloride (AuCl) is 232.5.
- Gold chloride, represented by the formula AuCl, consists of one atom of gold (Au) and one atom of chlorine (Cl).
- The relative atomic mass of gold (Au) is 197.
- The relative atomic mass of chlorine (Cl) is 35.5.
- To find the relative formula mass of gold chloride, add the relative atomic masses of gold and chlorine:
Relative formula mass of AuCl = Relative atomic mass of Au + Relative atomic mass of Cl
Relative formula mass of AuCl = 197 + 35.5
Relative formula mass of AuCl = 232.5
Complete Question:
Calculate the relative formula mass of gold chloride? Relative atomic masses: Cl = 35.5, Au = 197.
