Metric ton equals how many moles?

Answer 1

The average male mole weighs 115 grams and the average female 85 grams. If we assume that the population of moles is equally divided between males and females, then then the average weight of a mole is 100 grams. This is very easy to convert to tons, as there are 1000 grams in a kilogram, and 1000 kilograms in a ton. We can then say:

(1000 kg * 1000 g/kg) / (100 g/mol)

= 1000000 g / (100 g/mol)

= 10000 mol

So you would need about 10000 moles to get a mass of one metric ton. If you collect them in regions where they are densely packed, you'll usually find about 7 to 12 moles per hectare, which means that to collect enough moles to reach a mass of one ton, you'll need to hunt them to local extinction in an area of roughly 1000 hectares (about 2500 acres) in regions where they are most densely found.

Answer 2

The number of moles in a metric ton depends on the substance being measured. To convert from metric tons to moles, you need to know the molar mass of the substance. You can use the formula: moles = (metric tons * 1000) / molar mass.

Answer 3

A metric ton is a 1000 kg.
