Converting from Moles to Mass!

Mr. Doktor explained to us how to convert Moles into Mass.
The mole being converted is multiplied by mass/1 mol.

Ex:
0.89mol x 111.1g/1mol = 98.88g
1.112mol x 20.0g/1mol = 22.2g
0.159mol x 60.1g/1mol = 9.56g

Mr Doktor also showed us how to convert Mass into Moles.
The mass being converted is multiplied by 1 unit of mass/mol.

Ex:
158.1g x 1mol/303.3g = 0.5213mol
362.8g x 1mol/72g = 5.04mol
12.35g x 1mol/58.0g = 0.140mol

The 1mol is either on the top or bottom so that units can cancel.
