Mole (unit) containing of hydrogen atoms in it, weighing exactly 1.008 grams (same as the Ar of one hydrogen atom). The molar mass of a substance is the mass of a sample divided by the amount of substance in that sample. This is a constant for any given substance. Since the unified atomic mass unit (symbol: u, or Da) is defined as 1/12 of the mass of the C atom, it follows that the molar mass of a substance, measured in grams per mole, is numerically equal to its mean atomic or molecular mass expressed in Da. One can determine the amount
Defining equation (physics) of measurements to be made when they might appear ambiguous and unclear otherwise. A basic example is mass density. It is not clear how compare how much matter constitutes a variety of substances given only their masses or only their volumes. Given both for each substance, the mass "m" per unit volume "V", or mass density "ρ" provides a meaningful comparison between the substances, since for each, a fixed amount of volume will correspond to an amount of mass depending on the substance. To illustrate this; if two substances A and B have masses "m" and "m" respectively, occupying volumes
