Document Summary

Carbon is assigned a mass of exactly 12 atomic mass units, and the masses of all other atoms are given relative to this standard. Mass spectrometer used to compare the masses of atoms. Atomic masses are usually the average values of all the isotopes. The mass of 1 mole of an element is equal to its atomic mass in grams. Mole the number equal to the number of carbon atoms in exactly 12 grams of pure 12c. 1 mole of seconds represents a span of time 4 million times as long as the earth has already existed. 1 mole of marbles is enough to cover the earth to a depth of 50 miles. Molar mass mass in grams of 1 mole of a compound. In this text, for convenience, we will apply the term molar mass to both ionic and molecular substances i. e. we will refer to 58. 44 as the molar mass for nacl.
