gollark: (I don't think that "how big is a molecule of it" is really a valid question, or at least one you can work out that way, but I am not very sure)
gollark: <@474726021652807680> If you used that molar mass they have, you would be calculating the mass of a mole of it, which isn't a molecule.
gollark: What mass are you using? You said you wanted to know how big a molecule was or something?
gollark: In that case, put in a mass in grams, and the density in g/L, and you'll get a volume in litres.
gollark: If you get the density in, say, kg/m³, then the mass is in kg and volume is in m³.
