The mole is a unit of amount of substance used in chemistry and physics, such that the mass of one mole of a substance expressed in grams is numerically equal to the average mass of one of its particles expressed in daltons. That is, the molar mass of a chemical compound expressed in g/mol or kg/kmol is numerically equal to its average ...
For example, water has a molar mass of 18.0153(3) g/mol, but individual water molecules have molecular masses which range between 18.010 564 6863(15) Da (1 H 2 16 O) and 22.027 7364(9) Da (2 H 2 18 O). Atomic and molecular masses are usually reported in daltons, which is defined in terms of the mass of the isotope 12 C (carbon-12).
The molecular mass (for molecular compounds) and formula mass (for non-molecular compounds, such as ionic salts) are commonly used as synonyms of molar mass, differing only in units (daltons vs g/mol); however, the most authoritative sources define it differently. The difference is that molecular mass is the mass of one specific particle or ...
The mole and the atomic mass unit (dalton) were originally defined in the International System of Units (SI) in such a way that the constant was exactly 1 g/mol, which made the numerical value of the molar mass of a substance, in grams per mole, equal to the average mass of its constituent particles (atoms, molecules, or formula units) relative ...
The most common use of 'Daltons' is as a synonym for g/mol. When someone talks about a 254 kDa protein, they mean it has a molecular mass of 254,000 g/mol. I think this article needs to make this clear.27.54.43.66 03:46, 28 May 2011 (UTC) The statement "Da = g/mol" occurs often in chemistry texts and elsewhere.

The Avogadro constant, commonly denoted N A [1] or L, [2] is an SI defining constant with an exact value of 6.022 140 76 × 10 23 mol −1 (reciprocal moles). [3] [4] It is this defined number of constituent particles (usually molecules, atoms, ions, or ion pairs—in general, entities) per mole and used as a normalization factor in relating the amount of substance, n(X), in a sample of a ...
m(NaCl) = 2 mol/L × 0.1 L × 58 g/mol = 11.6 g. To create the solution, 11.6 g NaCl is placed in a volumetric flask, dissolved in some water, then followed by the addition of more water until the total volume reaches 100 mL. The density of water is approximately 1000 g/L and its molar mass is 18.02 g/mol (or 1/18.02 = 0.055 mol/g). Therefore ...
