The molar mass of an element is the mass in grams of one mole of the element. It is determined by writing its atomic weight on the periodic table in grams/mol. For example, the atomic weight of hydrogen to seven significant figures is 1.00794 amu, therefore, its molar mass to seven significant figures is 1.00794 g/mol.
