What is a mole in chemistry?

Back

A mole is a unit of measurement used to express the amount of a substance, defined as containing exactly 6.022 x 10^23 particles (atoms, molecules, ions, etc.).

Front

What does a balanced chemical equation represent?

Back

A balanced chemical equation represents the conservation of mass, showing that the number of atoms of each element is the same on both sides of the equation.

How do you calculate the number of moles from grams?

Back

To calculate the number of moles from grams, use the formula: Moles = Mass (g) / Molar Mass (g/mol).

What is the mole ratio of MgO to Fe in the reaction 3 Mg + 1 Fe2O3 → 3 MgO + 2 Fe?

Back

The mole ratio of MgO to Fe is 3 mol MgO / 2 mol Fe.

Front

How do you convert molecules to moles?

Back

To convert molecules to moles, use the formula: Moles = Number of molecules / Avogadro's number (6.022 x 10^23).
