Consider the compound Sn (SO4) 2 and answer the following questions:

a. What is the name of this compound?

b. What is the molar mass of this compound? Explain how you calculated this value.

A. This compound is Tin (IV) Sulfate, or Stannic Sulfate. It depends on which naming methodology you are using, but both are correct.

B. The molar mass of this compound is calculated by the combination of the formula weights of all the pieces of the compound, so you need to add the weights of

Sn+2S+8O

118.7 + 2 (32.07) + 8 (15.99)

118.7 + 64.14 + 127.92

310.76

The molar mass is 310.76 g/mol.
