Use ratios in balanced reactions practice

Use a supplied balanced equation or molar mass to calculate amounts with stated units.

Opening your practice adventure…

Try a sample

A sample has mass 44 g and molar mass 22 g/mol. How many moles are present?

  1. 968 mol
  2. 22 mol
  3. 2 mol
  4. 66 mol
See the answer & why

2 mol

44 g ÷ 22 g/mol = 2 mol.

A little hint: Read coefficients as mole ratios, and use only the supplied molar masses for mass conversions.

A teaching tip

Read coefficients as mole ratios, and use only the supplied molar masses for mass conversions.
