Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The molar mass of an unknown gas is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
Mole concept uses a specific quantity called moles to define the amount of substance. It relates the molar mass, given mass and also the molar volume to a specific constant called the
The density of a substance is defined as ratio of mass and volume. It is a characteristic property of a substance that relates the mass of that substance with the space it occupies.
