Molar mass of a compound is the :

  • A.Mass in 1 lit solvent
  • B.Mass in 1 mol of a substance
  • C.Mass in 1 ml of solvent
  • D.Mass in 1 g of a compound

Answer: B

Molar mass is the mass in 1 mol of a substance.

It is expressed in grams per mole and is numerically equal to the relative molecular mass: water has molar mass 18 g/mol, so one mole of water, 6.022 × 1023 molecules, weighs 18 g.

Mass per litre of solvent is a concentration (and grams of solute per kilogram of solvent leads to molality), not a property of the compound itself. Mass in 1 ml of solvent is closer to density, and 'mass in 1 g of a compound' is circular, since it is simply 1 g.
