    The atomic mass of carbon (C) is 12.0107 amu, so if you want to calculate the total mass in each molecule, you just need to multiply the number of carbon atoms in the substance by 12.017. In (a) there is one atom of C, (b) have also one atom of C, (c) have 12 atoms of C, and (d) have five atoms of C. Thus, the total mass (amu) of carbon is:

    (a) 12.017 amu

    (b) 12.017 amu

    (c) 144.204 amu

    (d) 60.085 amu
