Given:
Atomic masses of Zn = 65u, Na = 23u, K = 39u, C = 12u, and O = 16u
The formula unit mass of ZnO = Atomic mass of Zn + Atomic mass of O = 65u + 16u = 81u
The formula unit mass of Na2O = 2 x Atomic mass of Na + Atomic mass of O = (2 x 23)u + 16u = 46u + 16u = 62u
The formula unit mass of K2CO3 = 2 x Atomic mass of K + Atomic mass of C + 3 x Atomic mass of O = (2 x 39)u + 12u + (3 x 16)u = 78u + 12u + 48u = 138u
