How to get molecular mass
Add up relative atomic masses
What is a mole?
A mole is a substance containing as many particles as there are carbon atoms in exactly 12g of carbon-12
What is avagadros constant?
6.02 x 10^23
Molar mass units
Mass per mole of a substance - g/mol^-1
What is molar mass?
The mass of one mole
Mass of one mole of carbon
12.0 g
Mass of one mole of water
18.0 g
Number of particles equation
Number of particles = NA x moles
NA is avagadros constant
