Moles to Milliliters Conversion Calculator

Formula

The formula to convert moles to milliliters is:

$\text{V} = \frac{n \times M}{D}$

Where:

$\text{V}$ is the volume (milliliters)
$\text{n}$ is the amount of substance (moles)
$\text{M}$ is the molar mass (grams per mole)
$\text{D}$ is the density of the substance (grams per milliliter)

What is Moles to Milliliters Conversion?

Converting moles to milliliters is a common task in chemistry when dealing with solutions. It involves using the molar mass of a substance to find its mass for a given number of moles, and then using the density to convert that mass to a volume. This conversion is useful for preparing solutions with precise concentrations or for translating between different units of measurement in chemical equations.

Example Calculation 1

Let's assume the following values:

Amount of substance ( $\text{n}$ ): 2 moles
Molar mass ( $\text{M}$ ): 18 grams per mole (for water)
Density ( $\text{D}$ ): 1 gram per milliliter (for water)

Step 1: Multiply the number of moles by the molar mass:

$\text{n} \times \text{M} = 2 \times 18 = 36 \text{ grams}$

Step 2: Divide by the density:

$\text{V} = \frac{36}{1} = 36 \text{ milliliters}$

Therefore, the volume is 36 milliliters.

Example Calculation 2

Let's assume the following values:

Amount of substance ( $\text{n}$ ): 3 moles
Molar mass ( $\text{M}$ ): 44 grams per mole (for carbon dioxide)
Density ( $\text{D}$ ): 1.98 grams per milliliter (for carbon dioxide)

Step 1: Multiply the number of moles by the molar mass:

$\text{n} \times \text{M} = 3 \times 44 = 132 \text{ grams}$

Step 2: Divide by the density:

$\text{V} = \frac{132}{1.98} = 66.67 \text{ milliliters}$

Therefore, the volume is 66.67 milliliters.
