Molecular Weight Calculator

Molecular Weight Calculator transforms complex chemistry calculations into simple, accurate results. Understanding molecular weight is fundamental to chemistry success, whether you’re studying for exams or conducting professional research.

This calculator handles all mathematical complexities while you focus on understanding chemical concepts. Atomic weight, molecular weight, and molar mass are fundamental concepts essential for calculating quantities in chemical reactions, determining concentrations, and analyzing molecular properties.

How to Use Molecular Weight Calculator

Our user-friendly calculator makes molecular weight calculations effortless:

Step 1: Enter Chemical Elements

• Type the element symbol (H, O, C, N, etc.)
• Use proper capitalization (H, not h)
• Enter one element at a time

Step 2: Specify Number of Atoms

• Input how many atoms of each element
• Use whole numbers only
• Default is 1 if not specified

Step 3: Add Multiple Elements

• Click “Add New Atom” for additional elements
• Build your complete molecular formula
• Review all entries before calculating

Step 4: Calculate Results

The calculator automatically computes the total molecular weight and displays it in G/Mol units. Results appear instantly with proper precision.

Step-by-Step Calculation Examples

Example 1: Water (H₂O)

Elements and quantities:

• Hydrogen (H): 2 atoms
• Oxygen (O): 1 atom

Atomic weights:

• Hydrogen: 1.008 AMU
• Oxygen: 16.00 AMU

Calculation:

• H: 2 × 1.008 = 2.016 AMU
• O: 1 × 16.00 = 16.00 AMU
• Total: 18.016 AMU
