Which has the highest relative molecular mass?

Think it through first, then pick an option.

  1. a H₂SO₄
  2. b HNO₃
  3. c H₂CO₃
  4. d HCl
Answer and explanation

Correct answer: a H₂SO₄

H₂SO₄ = 98, more than HNO₃ (63), H₂CO₃ (62) and HCl (36.5).

Why the other options are wrong

  • b HNO₃: HNO₃ = 1 + 14 + 48 = 63, less than H₂SO₄ at 98.
  • c H₂CO₃: H₂CO₃ = 2 + 12 + 48 = 62, less than H₂SO₄ at 98.
  • d HCl: HCl = 36.5, the lowest of the four; the highest is H₂SO₄ (98).
