Mole
answer
the SI Base unit used to measure the amount of a substance. It is the number of representative particles, carbon atoms, in exactly 12 g of pure carbon 12 We use the term the Mole to represent Avogadro's number A mole of atoms is 6.022 x 10 23 atoms, much like a dozen atoms is 12 atoms. AMU of Aluminum = 26.98 AMU of Copper is =63.55 AMU of Carbon is 12.01 So, 26.98 grams of aluminum, 63.55 grams of copper, and 12.01 grams of carbon each contain 6.022 x 10 23 atoms! 26.98 g of Al = 1 mole Al = 6.022 x 1023 atoms
question
Avogadro's Number
answer
6.02 x 10 to the 23 in 1811 Avogadro determined the volume of one mole of a gas. 3.5 mole sucrose x (6.02 x10 23 molecules of sucrose)/1 mol sucrose = 2.11 x10 24 molecules sucrose. There are 2.11 x 10 24 molecules of sucrose in 3.5 moles Number of moles x Av.Number = # of molecules
question
Molar Mass
answer
The mass in grams of one mole of any substance. The molar mass of any element is numerical equal to its atomic mass and has the units g/mol. Moles x molar mass = grams
question
Atomic Mass
answer
Measuring out the average atomic mass of an element in grams is measuring out a mole of atoms or 6.022 x 10 23 atoms.
question
How do you find a substance's molar mass?
answer
By adding the mass of each element in a compound.
question
How many moles are in 10.0 g of Al?
answer
10g Al x ( 1 Mol Al/26.98 g Al) = .371 Mol Al
question
How many atoms are in 10 G of Al
answer
10g Al x(1 Mol Al/26.98 g Al) x (6.011 x 10 23 Atoms Al)/1 Mol Al 1 Mol/ 6.022 x10 23 Atoms Atomic Mass of element in Grams/ 1 Mol Element
question
Calculate th percent by mass of Al in Aluminum hydroxide (Al(OH)3)
answer
Al= 26.98 O=16.0 x3= 48 H= 1.01 x3 = 3.03 Molar mass = 78.01 Al = 26.98 is what % of 78.01? Al= 34.6%
question
Calculating Empirical formulas
answer
Example: A sulfur compound contains 50% Sulfur and 50% O Find the Empirical Formula 100 g of compound contains 50g S and 50 g of O No of Moles of Atoms 50/32.07 = 1.56 mol S 50/16.0 = 3.114 mol of O Empirical formula = SO2 There is twice as many moles of O as there is S
question
Molecular Formula
answer
A compound is found to be made up of 71.9% Carbon, 12.13% Hydrogen and 15.97% Oxygen The Compound has a Molecular weight (Molar Mass) of 300.54 g Determine the actual chemical formula for the compound. 100 grams of compound contains 71.9g C, 12.13g H, 15.97g O No of Moles of Atoms 71.9g C / 12.01 = 5.9 9 Moles of C 12.13g H /1.01 = 12 Moles of H 15.97 g O / 16.0 = 1 Mol of O Empirical Formula = c6h12o Molar Mass of Empirical Formula =100.18 Molecular Formula = C18H36O3
question
Hydrates
answer
An analysis of a hydrate is found to contain 639% Copper II Sulfate (CuSO4) and 36.1% Water Calculate the simplest formula for this hydrate. 100g compound contains 63.9% CuSO4, 36.1% H2O # of Moles of Atoms 63.9/159.62 = .4 Moles of CuSO4 2.003/0.400 = 2.003 moles of H2O Empirical Formul o the Hydrate = CuSO4 ¥ 5H2O
