The number of moles in an element is directly proportional to:
Correct answer: A. Mass of an element
- A. Mass of an element
- B. Empirical formula mass
- C. Molar mass of an element
- D. Formula mass
Explanation
Since molar mass is constant for a given element, increasing the mass increases the number of moles proportionally. For example, doubling the mass of an element doubles the number of moles, making them directly proportional.
