What is the Molar Mass Calculator?
Molar mass is the mass of one mole of a substance, in grams per mole. It's the sum of the atomic masses of every atom in the formula — water (H₂O) is 2 × 1.008 + 15.999 = 18.015 g/mol.

Frequently asked questions
Molar mass vs molecular weight?
Numerically the same: g/mol vs atomic mass units (u).
Why does case matter?
Co is cobalt, but CO is carbon and oxygen.
