Answer

The molar mass for $KH_2PO_4$ is equal to 136.09 g

Work Step by Step

1. Find the molar mass for each element in this compound: $K: 39.10g$ $H: 1.008g$ $P: 30.97g$ $O: 16.00g$ 2. Multiply each one of them by their respective subscript number: $K: 39.10g $ $H: 1.008g * 2= 2.016g $ $P: 30.97g $ $O: 16.00g * 4= 64.00g$ 3. Calculate the total sum of these values: $39.10g + 2.016g + 30.97g + 64.00g = 136.09g$
