Enter the number of moles and Avogadro’s number into the calculator to determine the number of ions. This calculator can also evaluate any of the variables given the others are known.

Moles To Ions Formula

The following formula is used to calculate the number of ions from moles.

I = M * A

Variables:

  • I is the number of ions
  • M is the number of moles
  • A is Avogadro’s number (6.022 x 10^23)

To calculate the number of ions, multiply the number of moles by Avogadro’s number.

What is Moles To Ions?

Moles to ions conversion is a process used in chemistry to determine the number of ions in a certain number of moles of a substance. This is based on Avogadro’s number, which states that one mole of any substance contains 6.022 x 10^23 representative particles, which can be atoms, molecules, or ions. Therefore, to convert moles to ions, you multiply the number of moles by Avogadro’s number.

How to Calculate Moles To Ions?

The following steps outline how to calculate the number of ions using the formula I = M * A.


  1. First, determine the number of moles (M).
  2. Next, gather the value of Avogadro’s number (A) which is 6.022 x 10^23.
  3. Next, use the formula I = M * A to calculate the number of ions (I).
  4. Finally, calculate the number of ions (I).
  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.

number of moles (M) = 2

Avogadro’s number (A) = 6.022 x 10^23
