Approx. #1# #kg#. #1# #mol# saccharin has a mass of #183.18# #g#. Simply multiply moles by molar mass.

Explanation:

#5# #cancel(mol)# #xx# #183.18# #g*cancel(mol^-1)# #=# #??# #g#

The molar mass of saccharin is simply #(7xx12.011+5xx1.00794+14.01+....)g*mol^-1#. From where do all these numbers come?
