(a) Molecular weight

(b) Average molecular weight

(c) Atomic weight

(d) None of the mentioned

I have been asked this question during an online interview.

My doubt is from Mole and Molecular Weight-II in section Introductory Concepts of Chemical Process Calculation

Answer 1

Right answer is (b) Average molecular weight

For explanation: A pseudo molecular weight computed by dividing the mass in a mixture or solution by the number of moles in the mixture or solution is called average molecular weight.
