Molar Mass

The mass of one mole of any substance is

called its Molar Mass

Molar Mass is the mass of a substance that

contains 6.02 x 1023 particles.

Unit for Molar Mass is grams per mol

(gmol1)
Molar Mass

Molar Mass = Mass of 1 mole substance

= Mass of 6.02 x 1023 particles
in a substance

1 mole substance contains same value of mass with

Relative atomic mass
Relative molecular mass of a substance
Relative formula mass

Example of Calculation A

Calculate the mass contains in 0.3 mol of

Calcium.
[ AR : Ca,40 ]

Solution:
Molar Mass of calcium = 40g/mol
Mass of 0.3 mol calcium = 0.3  40
= 12g
Example of Calculation B

 A sample of sodium chloride (NaCl) weighs 1.17g.

Calculate the number of moles contain in that sample.
