Answer:
167.217g/mol
Explanation:
Formula mass is defined as the mass in grams that a mole of a molecule weighs. To solve the formula mass of ZrF₄ we require the molar mass of Zr and of F (Molar mass Zr: 91.225g/mol; F: 18.998g/mol)
In this molecule, there is 1 mole of Zr and 4 moles of F. The formula mass is:
Zr = 1*91.225g/mol = 91.225g/mol
F = 4*18.998g/mol = 75.992g/mol
Formula mass: 91.225g/mol + 75.992g/mol
167.217g/mol
