  1. Objectives • To understand the definition of molar mass • To learn to convert between moles and mass • To learn to calculate the mass percent of an element in a compound

  2. A. Molar Mass • A compound is a collection of atoms bound together. • The molar mass of a compound is obtained by summing the masses of the component atoms.

  3. A. Molar Mass • For compounds containing ions the molar mass is obtained by summing the masses of the component ions.

  4. A. Molar Mass • Calculations Using Molar Mass • Moles of a compound = • Mass of a sample (g) = (moles of sample)(molar mass of compound)

  5. Objective: • Calculate the percent composition of a given compound given the formula or experimental data.

  6. B. Percent Composition of Compounds *Remember  The law of constant composition • Any given compound always contains the same elements in the same proportions by mass For example: Carbon dioxide (CO2) contains: 1- carbon atom 2 – oxygen atoms • Always a 2:1 ratio of oxygen:carbon

  7. B. Percent Composition of Compounds • Compounds always have the same # and type of each atoms and also have the same proportions of each element by mass • Percentage Composition – mass of each element in a compound relative to the total mass of the compound.

  8. For example: The Molar mass of carbon dioxide is… • C 12.011 g/mol • O 15.9994 g/mol • O 15.9994 g/mol • 44.010 g/mol • What is the percentage of carbon in CO2? • What is the percentage of oxygen in CO2?

  9. Finding Percentage Composition from experimental data • A sample of 2.45 g of aluminum oxide decomposes into 1.30 g of aluminum and 1.15 g of oxygen. What is the percentage composition of each element in the compound?

  10. B. Percent Composition of Compounds • Percent composition consists of the mass percent of each element in a compound: Mass percent =
