WHAT IS MOLAR MASS?

• mass in grams of 1 mole of the element

• Molar Mass = ___grams____(MM) 1

Mol

Synonyms: molecular weight, gram formula unit

Use Periodic Table to determine MM!

• Let’s examine periodic table! • If I had one mole of _____ it’s molar mass would

be _______ g per 1 mol.

• Carbon MM= 12.0 g / mol

• Atomic Hydrogen MM= 1.0 g / mol

• Mercury MM= 200.6 g / mol

• Iron MM=55.8 g / mol

• Sulfur MM= 32.1 g / mol
