Molecule mass: Calculate the molecule m...

Molecule mass: Calculate the molecule mass of vitamin `C` or ascrobic acid `(C_(6) H_(8) O_(6))` using rounded values for atomic masses.
Strategy: Add the atomic masses of the elements in the formula, each multipled by the number of times the element occurs.
