What is relative formula mass?

Solution

The formula mass of a substance is the sum of atomic masses of all atoms in a formula unit of a compound. Formula mass is used for substances whose constituent particles are ions. In ionic compound, one molecule may contain several positive and negative ions. One molecule of sodium chloride contains six Na+ and 6 C1– ions. But formula unit is NaC1. So formula mass is used in ionic compounds.
