In chemistry, the molar mass, M, is a physical property. It is defined as the mass of a given substance (chemical element or chemical compound) divided by its amount of substance.
The molar mass of atoms of an element is given by the atomic weight of the element multiplied by the molar mass constant, M
u = 1×10−3 kg/mol = 1 g/mol:M(H) = 1.007 97(7) × 1 g/mol = 1.007 97(7) g/molM(S) = 32.065(5) × 1 g/mol = 32.065(5) g/molM(Cl) = 35.453(2) × 1 g/mol = 35.453(2) g/molM(Fe) = 55.845(2) × 1 g/mol = 55.845(2) g/mol.
Multiplying by the molar mass constant ensures that the calculation is dimensionally correct: atomic weights are dimensionless quantities(i.e., pure numbers) whereas molar masses have units (in this case, grams/mole).

How do you find the molar mass of an atom?
Molar mass is a term applied for molecules, not for atoms.
Is oxygen molecular mass twice of its atomic mass?
Molar mass of it is 32gmol-1. It is twice than an atom.
How is the molar mass of an element related to average atomic mass?
Molar mass is the weight of one mole of any chemical compounds. Atomic mass is the weight of just 1 atom of a compound
How are Avogadro constant average atomic mass and molar mass related?
The average atomic mass of an element is the weighted average mass of an atom (including all its isotopes). This is related to the molar mass, because molar mass is the weight of 1 mole of something (atoms, molecules, etc...). 1 mole = 6.022 x10^23 = avogardro's constant.
What is the molar mass of beryllium chloride BeCl2?
BeCl2 One atom of beryllium and two atoms of chloride. = 79.912 grams/mole
How do you find the molar mass of an atom?
Molar mass is a term applied for molecules, not for atoms.
What is a molar mass and how many atoms are in 1 mole of anything?
molar mass is just the moleular mass of an atom or molecule.
How many times an atom of sulfur is heavier than an atom of carbon?
Sulphur has a molar mass of 32.065. Carbon has a molar mass of 12.01. 32.065 / 12.01 = 2.67. So an sulphur atom is 2.67 heavier than an carbon atom.
What does the number above the symbol represent?
The atomic number.
What type of alcohol has a molar mass of 4.75 grams?
The molar mass of the lightest alcohol, methanol, is 32.04 grams per mol. No alcohol has a molar mass of 4.75 grams. To find the molar mass of a substance, you sum the mass of every atom that makes up your compound. For methanol, you add the mass of three hydrogens, a carbon, and an oxygen atom. An alcohol group, more properly a "hydroxyl," consists of an oxygen and a hydrogen and contributes about 17 grams per mol to the molar mass (about 16 g/mol for an oxygen atom and 1 for a hydrogen). Hope this helps!
How many atoms of the element makes up molar mass?
The molar mass is the sum of the atomic weights of atoms contained in the molecule.
Is oxygen molecular mass twice of its atomic mass?
Molar mass of it is 32gmol-1. It is twice than an atom.
What is the mass of the hydrogen atom?
The mass of a hydrogen atom is 1.66 x 10^(-27) kg. Further, any atomic weight can be derived by dividing its molar mass by Avogardro's number.
How is the molar mass of an element related to average atomic mass?
Molar mass is the weight of one mole of any chemical compounds. Atomic mass is the weight of just 1 atom of a compound
How do you find the mass of an atom with only the molar mass given?
Molar mass of an element is the atomic weight on the periodic table in grams. 1 mole of atoms of an element is 6.022 x 1023 atoms. To find the mass of one atom of an element, divide the element's molar mass by 6.022 x 1023 atoms.Example:Sodium, Na, has a molar mass of 22.989770g/mol (atomic weight in grams)1 mole Na atoms = 6.022 x 1023 atomsSolution:22.989770g/mol x 1mol/6.022 x 1023 atoms = 3.818 x 10-23g/atom
The mass of a hydrogen atom is 1.0 amu and the mass of a carbon atom is 12.0 amu What is the molar mass of methane CH4?
12.0 + (4.00000... X 1.0) = 16.0, to the justified number of significant digits.
How are Avogadro constant average atomic mass and molar mass related?
The average atomic mass of an element is the weighted average mass of an atom (including all its isotopes). This is related to the molar mass, because molar mass is the weight of 1 mole of something (atoms, molecules, etc...). 1 mole = 6.022 x10^23 = avogardro's constant.
