1. Molar, mass and volume quantities
A thermodynamic property is related to a quantity of matter, which is either the mole, the unit of mass or the unit of volume.
-
Remember that the molar mass of a substance M is the mass, expressed in grams, of 6.022 05 × 10
23
molecules (Avogadro's number, N = 6.022 05 × 10
23
mol
–1
).
Example
normal heptane has a molar mass M = 100. This means 100 g · mol
–1
or 100 × 10
–3
= 0.1 kg · mol
–1
(or 100 kg · kmol
–1
).
