Solution

To calculate the molecular mass of carbon tetrachloride (CCl4), you need to add the atomic mass of one carbon atom and four chlorine atoms.

Step 1: Identify the atomic mass of each element in the molecule from the given information. Carbon (C) has an atomic mass of 12.01 g/mole and Chlorine (Cl) has an atomic mass of 35.453 g/mole.

Step 2: Multiply the atomic mass of Chlorine by 4 (since there are 4 chlorine atoms in the molecule): 35.453 g/mole * 4 = 141.812 g/mole

Step 3: Add the atomic mass of Carbon to the total atomic mass of Chlorine: 12.01 g/mole + 141.812 g/mole = 153.822 g/mole

So, the molecular mass of carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) is 153.822 g/mole.
