Answer:

Similarities: both state the mass of chemical species and they have the same numerical value

Differences: molecular mass refers to one single molecule and molar mass refers to one mole of a molecule

Explanation:

The molecular mass is the value of the mass of each molecule and it is measured in mass units (u). It is calculated adding the mass of each atom of the molecule.

The molar mass is the value of the mass of one mole of molecules, which means the mass of 6.022140857 × 10²³ molecules. The unit is g/mol.

For example, we can consider the methane molecule, which has the chemical formula of CH₄:

Molecular mass CH₄ = C mass + 4 x (H mass)

Molecular mass CH₄ = 12.01 + 4 x (1.01)

Molecular mass CH₄ = 16.05 u

Now to calculate the molar mass we multiply the value of the molecular mass by the Avogadro number and convert the units to g/mol:

Molar mass CH₄: 16.05 x \frac{1}{6.022140857 x 10x^{23} } g x 6.022140857 × 10²³ mol⁻¹

Molecular mass CH₄ = 16.05 g / mol

So basically, the change in color effects the amount of cations in the solution making it a physical change rather than a chemical one, defying the law of conservation of mass! I hope this helped! (The only time the change in color affects the amount of cations is in the Alkaline Earth Metals)

When 0.514 g of biphenyl (c12h10) undergoes comubustion in a bomb calorimeter, the temperature increases from 25.80 °c to 29.40
slava [35]
The  change  in  internal   energy  of the   combustion  of  biphenyl  in  Kj  is  calculated  as follows

  =heat  capacity of  bomb  calorimeter x  delta  T  where  delta T   is  change   in temperature
delta T  = 29.4  -25.8= 3.6 c

= 5.86 kj/c   x  3.6 c =  21.096  kj
