Mole Percentage Calculator

Formula

The formula to calculate the Mole Percentage is:

\[ \text{Mole Percentage} = \left( \frac{\text{Moles of Substance}}{\text{Total Moles in Mixture}} \right) \times 100 \]

Where:

Moles of Substance is the number of moles of the specific substance in the mixture.
Total Moles in Mixture is the sum of the moles of all substances in the mixture.

What is Mole Percentage?

Mole percentage is a way of expressing the concentration of a component in a mixture. It is the ratio of the moles of a particular substance to the total moles of all substances in the mixture, multiplied by 100 to give a percentage. This measurement is useful in chemistry for representing the composition of mixtures and solutions.

Example Calculation

Let's consider an example:

Moles of Substance: 2
Total Moles in Mixture: 10

Using the formula to calculate the Mole Percentage:

\[ \text{Mole Percentage} = \left( \frac{2}{10} \right) \times 100 = 20\% \]

This means that the mole percentage for this scenario is 20%.
