Molar mass Molar mass In chemistry, the molar mass "M" is a physical property defined as the mass of a given substance (chemical element or chemical compound) divided by the amount of substance. The base SI unit for molar mass is kg/mol. However, for historical reasons, molar masses are almost always expressed in g/mol. In simple terms, molar mass of a substance is the total weight of that substance (in either kilogram or gram) for one mole of that substance. That is, the weight of a substance for 6.02214076×10^23 molecules or atoms of that substance. As an example, the molar mass of
Cartan formalism (physics) the normal Einstein–Hilbert action, using the relations formula_95 and formula_96. Note that in terms of the Planck mass, we set formula_97, whereas the last term keeps all the SI unit factors. Note that in the presence of spinor fields, the Palatini action implies that formula_98 is nonzero. So there's a non-zero torsion, i.e. that formula_99. See Einstein–Cartan theory. Cartan formalism (physics) The vierbein or tetrad theory much used in theoretical physics is a special case of the application of Cartan connection in four-dimensional manifolds. It applies to metrics of any signature. (See metric tensor.) This section is an approach to
