    Molecular mass of CO2 is 44.01 g/mol

    Mass of one mole of CO2 is 44.01amu

    Explanation:

    The structure of the CO2 molecule consists of one carbon atom and two oxygen atoms.

    To find the molecular mass of CO2, we need to add the atomic mass of the carbon atom and the atomic mass of the oxygen atom.

    The atomic mass of carbon atom is = 12.01g/mole

    The atomic mass of oxygen atom is = 16g/mole

    CO2 has two oxygen atom, so the total mass of oxygen in CO2 will be 16 x 2 = 32g/mol

    So, the molecular mass of CO2 = 12.01 + 32

    = 44.01 g/mol

    The molecular mass of the CO2 is 44.01 g/mol.

    Mass of one molecule of CO2 is = 1 x 44.01

    = 44.01 amu (atomic mass unit).
