CALCULATION PROCEDURE: 2,6-Dichlorobenzothiazole  [C₇H₃Cl₂NS] Molecular Weight Calculation

Step 1: Find out the chemical formula and determine constituent atoms and their number in a 2,6-Dichlorobenzothiazole molecule.
You will know different atoms and their number in a 2,6-Dichlorobenzothiazole molecule from the chemical formula. The chemical formula of 2,6-Dichlorobenzothiazole is C₇H₃Cl₂NS. From the chemical formula, you can find that one molecule of 2,6-Dichlorobenzothiazole consists of seven Carbon (C) atoms, three Hydrogen (H) atoms, two Chlorine atom, one Nitrogen (N) atom, and one Sulfur atom.

Step 2: Find out the atomic weights of each atom (from the periodic table).

Atomic weight of Carbon (C): 12.0107 (Ref: Jlab-ele006)
Atomic weight of Hydrogen (H): 1.008 (Ref: Lanl-1)
Atomic weight of Chlorine (Cl): 35.4527 (Ref: jlab-ele017)
Atomic weight of Nitrogen (N): 14.00674 (Ref: Jlab-ele007)
Atomic weight of Sulfur (S): 32.066 (Ref: Jlab-ele016)

Step 3: Calculate the total weight of each atom in a 2,6-Dichlorobenzothiazole molecule by multiplying its atomic weight by its number.

Number of Carbon atoms in 2,6-Dichlorobenzothiazole: 7
Atomic weight of Carbon (C): 12.0107
Total weight of Carbon atoms in 2,6-Dichlorobenzothiazole: 12.0107 x 7 = 84.0749

Number of Hydrogen atoms in 2,6-Dichlorobenzothiazole: 3
Atomic weight of Hydrogen (H): 1.008
Total weight of Hydrogen atoms in 2,6-Dichlorobenzothiazole: 1.008 x 3 = 3.024

Number of Chlorine atoms in 2,6-Dichlorobenzothiazole: 2
Atomic weight of Chlorine (Cl): 35.4527
Total weight of Chlorine atoms in 2,6-Dichlorobenzothiazole: 35.4527 x 2 = 70.9054

Number of Nitrogen atoms in 2,6-Dichlorobenzothiazole: 1
Atomic weight of Nitrogen (N): 14.00674
Total weight of Nitrogen atoms in 2,6-Dichlorobenzothiazole: 14.00674 x 1 = 14.00674

Number of Sulfur atoms in 2,6-Dichlorobenzothiazole: 1
Atomic weight of Sulfur (S): 32.066
Total weight of Sulfur atoms in 2,6-Dichlorobenzothiazole: 32.066 x 1 = 32.066

Step 4: Calculate the molecular weight of 2,6-Dichlorobenzothiazole by adding up the total weight of all atoms.

Molecular weight of 2,6-Dichlorobenzothiazole: 84.0749 (Carbon) + 3.024 (Hydrogen) + 70.9054 (Chlorine) + 14.00674 (Nitrogen) + 32.066 (Sulfur) = 204.07704

So the molecular weight of 2,6-Dichlorobenzothiazole is 204.07704.
