Question

australopithecus · Answer

$$Moles = \frac{Grams}{MolecularMass}$$

where Molecular mass is in units of g/mol

Heres a molar mass calculator ,should sort you out http://www.webqc.org/mmcalc.php

australopithecus · Answer

The molecular mass of 
K = 39.0g/mol
and
O = 15.9994g/mol
H = 1.00794g/mol
Note these are all listed on the periodic table

Take the sum of these

1.00794g/mol+15.9994g/mol+39.0g/mol

and insert them into the equation along with the weight of KOH you have

Really you shouldn't use that molecular mass calculator until you are comfortable with determining molecular mass of compounds, it is really easy to do
