How do I determine the atomic mass of a compound?
assistant
To determine the atomic mass of a compound, you need to know the number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus. You can find this information by looking up the chemical formula of the compound on an online database or by consulting with a chemist. Once you have the number of protons and neutrons, you can calculate the atomic mass by using the equation A = (Z + N) + (Z/2) where Z is the atomic number and N is the number of neutrons.
