1 mole of a pure substance has a mass equal to its molecular mass expressed in grams.
This is known as the molar mass, M, and has the units g mol-1
So 2 moles of a substance would have a mass = 2 x molar mass
3 moles of a substance would have a mass = 3 x molar mass etc
This leads to the formula: mass = moles x molar mass
If we let:
m = mass of substance in grams,
n = moles of pure substance,
M = molar mass of the pure substance in g mol-1
we can write the equation: m = n x M
This equation can be rearranged to give the following:
n = m ÷ M (moles = mass ÷ molar mass)
M = m ÷ n (molar mass = mass ÷ moles)
P * V = n R T
<span>1 * 2.50 = n * 0.082 * 273 = 2. 50 / ( 0.082 * 273 ) = 0.11 mol </span>
<span>mass = mole number * molecular mass </span>
<span>mass = 0.11 * ( 16 * 2 ) = 3.52 g </span>
A diversity of scientists is important for reducing bias and for providing different ways of looking at the world. ... To the extent that we can remove our biases and learn from multiple perspectives, we will understand our world better.
