What is the molar mass of a substance whose gas density is 2.86 g/l?

    density has no influence whatsoever on molar mass.

    molar mass is nothing more than the mass of 1 mole of a given substance, for water for example this would be

    16,00 + 2*1,008 = 18,016

    PV = nRT

    PV = gRT / MM

    MM = gRT / PV

    as density = mass/volume

    MM = density * RT/P

    You need to know the temperature and the pressure to be able to determine molar mass.
