Question 9 • Chemistry

Which scientific tool is the most useful when trying to convert a known amount of grams of water to moles of water?

Answer
A
a spectrophotometer
B
a scale
C
the periodic table
D
a thermometer

Explanation

To convert grams of water to moles, divide the mass in grams by water’s molar mass, about 18 g/mol. The periodic table provides the atomic masses of hydrogen and oxygen, which you use to find water’s molar mass. A scale measures mass, but the question already gives the amount in grams.
