π Understanding Molar Mass
Definition: Molar mass is the mass of one mole of a substance, measured in grams per mole (g/mol).
Calculation: Sum the atomic masses of all atoms in the molecular formula.
Uses: Converting between grams and moles, determining empirical formulas, stoichiometry calculations.
β‘ Quick Tips
- β’Always use uppercase for first letter of element symbols
- β’Numbers go AFTER the element symbol (H2, not 2H)
- β’For polyatomic ions, use parentheses: Ca(OH)2
- β’Double-check your formula before calculating
