Convert between the mass and the number of moles in a given sample of compound
Convert between mass and the number of atoms in a given sample of compound
KEY POINTS
The molar mass of a compound is equal to the sum of the atomic masses of its constituent atoms in g/mol.
Although there is no physical way of measuring the number of moles of a compound, we can relate its mass to the number of moles by using the compound's molar mass as a direct conversion factor.
To convert between mass and number of moles, you can use the molar mass of the substance. Then, you can use Avogadro's number to convert the number of moles to number of atoms.
