By dividing the known mass by the Atomic Mass of the element, for most elements, or by the molecular mass for those elements known to form polyatomic molecules, such as H, N, O, F, Cl, Br, and I.

The molar mass is used as a conversion factor to convert grams to moles.

mass (g)

------------------- = moles

molar mass (amu)

For example:

If you have five grams of NH3 , how many moles of the substance do you have?

Answer:

Molar mass of NH3 = 17.01 (approx)

5g

------------ = 0.294 moles

17.01 amu

a+ =207.2

Cosidering the molar mass and the atomic weights of the elements.

Example: NaCl

Molar mass: 58,44247

Atomic weight of chlorine: 35,4527 (the mass of Cl in a mol of NaCl)

Atomic weight of sodium: 22,98977 (the mass of Na in a mol of NaCl)

Each element has a unique molar mass which is given in grams per mole. So if the amount of the substance in moles is known, then the mass in grams can be found by multiplying them together.

Because the relation is of proportionality.

How do you find the moles of a compound when no mass is given?

You have to use the molar mass of the element to convert the total amount of grams in the compound to the amount of grams in the element in the compound. After that use the mole ratio by using the amount of molecules in the reactant and divide it by the amount of molecules (moles in this case) to find the amount of mole... You should use the factor label method so that it's easier to plug into your calculator, just multiply or divide straight through. If you wrote it Out correctly all of your units except for moles should have cancelled out along the way...go chem!

How do you calculate actual yield?

There's a stoichiometry problem for it:(given mass)*(1mol of given)*(# of moles of required)*(molar mass of required)---------------------------------------------------------------------------------(molar mass of given)*(# of moles of given) *(1mol of required)Given mass is the mass you are told, (say 2.0g of HCl) and the "given" is the component (HCl) that you were given the mass of. Required mass is the mass you are trying to find, or your actual yield, and the "required" is the component whose mass you are trying to find. Molar mass can be calculated using the Periodic Table. Add the atomic masses of each element in the component. (For example, the molar mass of HCl is approx. 36.5g).


How do you convert an element to moles?

to convert an element to moles you need to setup and equation, for our example we will be using 5g of O2 or oxygen. You need to know what O2's molar mass is as well, it is 32g. So the equation would be 5g of O2 / 32 = .16 moles of O2. So to convert moles to grams all you do is multiply the moles given by the molar mass of the element/compound and you have your grams Hoped this helped : )
