Answer
The relative formula mass (R.F.M) of
is 32.
Explanation
## Step 1:To find the relative formula mass (R.F.M) of
, we need to sum the atomic masses of all the oxygen atoms in the molecule.## Step 2:The atomic mass of one oxygen atom (O) is given as 16.## Step 3:Since
consists of two oxygen atoms, we multiply the atomic mass of oxygen by 2.###
## Step 4:Perform the multiplication to find the R.F.M.###
