How to Calculate Mass from Molarity

Formula

mass = M × V × Mw

First find moles (M × V), then convert to grams by multiplying by molar mass.

Example Calculation

How many grams of NaCl (58.44 g/mol) for 500 mL of 0.5 M solution?

  1. 01Moles = 0.5 × 0.5 = 0.25 mol
  2. 02Mass = 0.25 × 58.44 = 14.61 g
