Asked by Gerry
A lighter contains 3.59 g of butane. How many moles of butane are present at STP?
Thoughts: So, correct me if I'm wrong however is it appropriate just to calculate its molar mass, and then use that molar mass and the given mass to figure out moles??

Yes, mols = grams/molar mass. By the way, it doesn't matter whether the gas is at STP or any other pressure/temperature combinations, the fact is that 3.59 g is so many moles regardless of the pressure/temperature.
