The formula mass of a molecule is the sum of the atomic weights of the atoms in the empirical formula of the compound. It is also known as Formula Weight.
The atomic weights of
N = 14.01 amu
H = 1.00 amu
P = 30.97 amu
O = 16.0 amu
Now, we will calculate now the formula mass of a given substance
3(14.01) + 12(1.00) + 1(30.97) + 4(16.0) = 42.03 + 12.00 + 30.97 + 64.0 = 149.0 amu
Therefore, the formula mass for (NH4)3PO4 is 149.0 amu
