Solution

Dear Student,
MM of C = 12.0107
MM of H = 1
MM of N = 14.0067
MM of O = 15.999
As there are 8 carbon,so it would be = 8×12.0107
= 96.0856
there are 9 hydrogen,so H would be = 9
there are 1 nitrogen,so N would be = 14.0067
there are 2 oxygen,so O would be = 2×15.999
= 31.998
so,C+H+N+O = 96.0856+9+14.0067+31.998
=151.1506 g/mol

Regards.
