Question

How many moles are there in 814.504 g of H2O?

Answer 1

First you need to calculate the molar mass of H2O. To do that, look at the periodic table and add up the AMUs (atomic mass units) 

H = 1.01
O = 16.0 

1.01 • 2 + 16.0 = 18.02 

Next, use stoichiometry to convert grams into moles. To do that, divide 814.504g by the number of grams in one mole of H2O.

814.504 ÷ 18.02 = 45.2 moles 

There are 45.2 moles in 814.504 grams of H2O.
