Relative atomic mass
The average mass of an atom of an element relative to 1/12 the mass of one atom of carbon 12
Relative isotopic mass
The mass of an atom of an isotope of an element when a scale of an atom of carbon 12 is exactly 12 grams.
Relative molecular mass
The average mass of one molecule relative to 1/12 the mass of carbon 12 atom.
What is Avogadro’s constant?
The number of particles in a mole.
Basic mole equation 1 and units
Mass = Mr x moles
Mass in grams
Basic mole equation 2 and units
Moles = conc x vol Con = mol dm-3 vol = dm3
