molecular weight
Molecular weight is the sum of the atomic weights of all the atoms in a molecule. It is usually measured in atomic mass units (amu) or Daltons (Da). The molecular weight can be determined by methods such as mass spectrometry or from the ratio of the molecular speed of a gas to that of hydrogen. It's an important concept in fields like chemistry and biochemistry for understanding properties of substances, calculations in chemical reactions, and designing experimental procedures.
