Convert kJ/g to kJ/mol or kJ/mol to kJ/g using molar mass, with options for J, cal, and kcal per gram or mole for common substances like water and glucose.

Use the molar mass of the same substance and basis as the energy value. Signed energy changes and zero are supported. cal and kcal use thermochemical definitions.

Presets are approximate. Confirm isotope/composition basis; editing this value overrides the preset.

kJ/g to kJ/mol Conversion Formula

The following formula is used to convert the energy content from kJ/g to kJ/mol.

Eโ‚˜โ‚’โ‚— = Eg ร— M

Variables:

  • E_{mol} is the energy per mole (kJ/mol)
  • E_{g} is the energy per gram (kJ/g)
  • M is the molar mass of the substance (g/mol)

To convert the energy content from kJ/g to kJ/mol, multiply the energy per gram by the molar mass of the substance.

How to Use the kJ/g to kJ/mol Calculator?

The following steps outline how to use the kJ/g to kJ/mol Calculator.


  1. First, select Energy per mole and enter the energy per gram with its unit; select Energy per gram for the reverse conversion.
  2. Next, enter the molar mass (M) of the same substance in g/mol, or choose and verify an approximate preset.
  3. Use the formula E_{mol} = E_{g} times M to calculate the energy per mole.
  4. Finally, select the result unit and Calculate. The forward relation multiplies by M; the reverse relation divides by M. cal and kcal mean thermochemical calories.
  5. After inserting the variables and calculating the result, check your answer with the calculator above.

Example Problem :

Use the following variables as an example problem to test your knowledge.

Energy per gram (E_{g}) = 25 kJ/g

Molar mass (M) = 58.44 g/mol
