What Does MW Stand For?
MW stands for Molecular Weight
MW, or Molecular Weight, is a measure of the mass of a molecule, typically expressed in daltons (Da) or grams per mole (g/mol). It represents the sum of the atomic weights of all atoms within a molecule and is crucial for determining various chemical properties, such as reactivity, interaction with solvents, and stability. Molecular weight plays a vital role in fields such as chemistry, biochemistry, and pharmacology, influencing the behavior of substances during reactions and in biological systems.
