The hydrates of the salts lose water at different temperatures during decomposition. [12] For example, in the trihydrate MgCO 3 ·3H 2 O, which molecular formula may be written as Mg(HCO 3)(OH)·2H 2 O, the dehydration steps occur at 157 °C and 179 °C as follows: [12] Mg(HCO 3)(OH)·2(H 2 O) → Mg(HCO 3)(OH)·(H 2 O) + H 2 O at 157 °C
Most water in Earth's atmosphere and crust comes from saline seawater, while fresh water accounts for nearly 1% of the total. The vast bulk of the water on Earth is saline or salt water, with an average salinity of 35‰ (or 3.5%, roughly equivalent to 34 grams of salts in 1 kg of seawater), though this varies slightly according to the amount of runoff received from surrounding land.

A Assuming an altitude of 194 metres above mean sea level (the worldwide median altitude of human habitation), an indoor temperature of 23 °C, a dewpoint of 9 °C (40.85% relative humidity), and 760 mmHg sea level–corrected barometric pressure (molar water vapor content = 1.16%). B Calculated values *Derived data by calculation.
Molecular weight (M.W.) (for molecular compounds) and formula weight (F.W.) (for non-molecular compounds), are older terms for what is now more correctly called the relative molar mass (M r). [8] This is a dimensionless quantity (i.e., a pure number, without units) equal to the molar mass divided by the molar mass constant .

Isotopically substituted molecules have higher mass. As a consequence, molecular vibration reduces and the molecule develops a lower zero point energy (see Kinetic isotope effect ). The abundances of certain bonds in certain molecules are sensitive to temperature at which it formed (e.g., abundance of 13 C 16 O 18 O in carbonates [ 29 ] as 13 C ...
The terms "molecular mass", "molecular weight", and "molar mass" may be used interchangeably in less formal contexts where unit- and quantity-correctness is not needed. The molecular mass is more commonly used when referring to the mass of a single or specific well-defined molecule and less commonly than molecular weight when referring to a ...
