==Mole Balance==

Another way the general balance equation is used is the ''mole balance'', that is, a balance on the number of [[mole]]s of one component of the system. Since each mole of any given [[chemical]] must weigh the same, a mole balance is simply a direct product of the mass balance. However, mole balances still have advantages over mass balances in some situations (for example, if the flow rates are given in moles per time). The same principles used to form mass balances can be used to form mole balances.
