Volume-volume promblems
Yes - it allows one to convert the stoichiometric ratios into mass ratios.
For mass % only the mass is required for this calculation. When only moles are known, than also molar composition - formula and atomic- or molecular masses are needed to calculate % of composition
Stoichiometry is based on the fact that chemical reactions occur in ratios of moles of all substances. The problem is that there is no device that directly measures moles. We do have a device to measure mass, so molar mass is used in stoichiometric calculations to give results which are measurable.
Molecular weight calculation: 6.941*2 + 32.065 + 15.9994*4
Since we know the mass and molar mass, we can just insert them into this equation: n = m / M where n is the number of moles, m is the mass and M is the molar mass. I will not do the calculation for you, you should make your homework yourself (the molar mass of potassium can be found in the periodic table) :)

The molar mass of iron(II) sulfate heptahydrate is 278,01556.

The molar mass of acetylsalicylic acid is 180.157 g/mol. There is a calculation involved in order to find the number of moles in a sample of ASA in which you divide the mass of your sample with the molar mass.

Molar mass of KC2H3O2 = 98.14232 g/mol Molecular weight calculation: 39.0983 + 12.0107*2 + 1.00794*3 + 15.9994*2 See the 'sources and related links' at bottom of this answer. The site there works the molar mass out for you automatically, all you have to do is insert 'KC2H302')
To predict the mass of a reactant or product in a chemical reaction, you would need the balanced chemical equation for the reaction, as it provides the stoichiometric ratio between the reactants and products. Additionally, you would need the molar mass of the specific substance you are interested in. With this information, you can calculate the mass using stoichiometry and molar ratios.
Balanced chemical equation along with the stoichiometric ratios derived from that chemical reaction. A + B --> 2C mass of A * 1/molar mass of A = moles of A Moles of A * 2 moles of C/mole of A = moles of C Moles of C * molar mass of C = mass of C Also, you must think about limiting reagents, because if there is not enought reactant B to react with the amount of reactant A then the amount of reactant B will limit the production of product C!
The molar mass of sulfur is 32.065. Molar mass is the mass per mole of a substance. In other words, Molar Mass = Mass/Amount of Substance.
