Question: how to find how many moles of solute are in a solution?
Answer: The number of moles of solute = mass of solute ÷ molar mass of solute, where mass is measured in grams and molar mass (defined as the mass of one mole of a substance in grams) is measured in g/mol. If you don't know the mass of the solute, weigh it on a scale and record the value.
