SCIENTIFIC MEASUREMENT • CHEM IH: CHAPTER 3
Stating a Measurement In every measurement there is a • Number followed by a • Unit from a measuring device The number should also be as precise as the measuring device.
Ex: Reading a Meterstick . l2. . . . I . . . . I3 . . . .I . . . . I4. . cm First digit (known) = 2 2.?? cm Second digit (known) = 0.7 2.7? cm Third digit (estimated) between 0.05- 0.07 Length reported =2.75 cm or 2.74 cm or 2.76 cm
UNITS OF MEASUREMENT Use SI units — based on the metric system Length Mass Volume Time Temperature Meter, m Kilogram, kg Liter, L Seconds, s Celsius degrees, ˚C kelvins, K
Conversion Factors Fractions in which the numerator and denominator are EQUAL quantities expressed in different units Example: 1 hr. = 60 min Factors: 1 hr. and 60 min 60 min 1 hr.
How many minutes are in 2.5 hours? Conversion factor 2.5 hr x 60 min = 150 min 1 hr cancel By using dimensional analysis / factor-label method, the UNITS ensure that you have the conversion right side up, and the UNITS are calculated as well as the numbers!

What is Scientific Notation? • Scientific notation is a way of expressing really big numbers or really small numbers. • For very large and very small numbers, scientific notation is more concise.
Scientific notation consists of two parts: • A number between 1 and 10 • A power of 10 N x 10x

CHEMICAL QUANTITIES: THE MOLEchemIh: Chapter 10chemi: chapter 12
MEASURING MASS • A mole is a quantity of things, just as… 1 dozen = 12 things 1 gross = 144 things 1 mole = 6.02 x 1023 things • “Things” usually measured in moles are atoms, molecules, ions, and formula units
You can measure mass, or volume, or you can count pieces • We measure mass in grams • We measure volume in liters • We count pieces in MOLES
A MOLE… • is an amount, defined as the number of carbon atoms in exactly 12 grams of carbon-12 • 1 mole = 6.02 x 1023of the representative particles • Treat it like a very large dozen 6.02 x 1023is called: Avogadro’s number
Similar Words for an amount: • Pair: 1 pair of shoelaces = 2 shoelaces • Dozen: 1 dozen oranges = 12 oranges • Gross: 1 gross of pencils= 144 pencils • Ream: 1 ream of paper= 500 sheets of paper
What are Representative Particles (“RP”)? • The smallest pieces of a substance: • For a molecular compound: it is the molecule. • For an ionic compound: it is the formula unit (made of ions) • For an element: it is the atom • Remember the 7 diatomic elements? (made of molecules)
Practice Counting Particles • How many oxygen atoms in the following? • CaCO3 3 atoms of oxygen • Al2(SO4)3 12 (4 x 3) atoms of oxygen • How many ions in the following? • CaCl2 • 3 total ions (1 Ca2+ ion and 2 Cl1- ions) • NaOH • 2 total ions (1 Na1+ ion and 1 OH1- ion) • Al2(SO4)3 • 5 total ions (2 Al3+ + 3 SO4 ions)
CONVERSION FACTOR • MOLES = RPs x ____1 mole___ 6.02 x 1023 RPs
EXAMPLES: ATOMS MOLES • How many moles of B are in 3.15 x 1023 atoms of B? • Conversion: 1 mole B = 6.02 x 1023 atoms B (b/c the atom is the RP of boron) 1 mole B 3.15 x 1023 atoms of B 6.02 x 1023 atoms B = 0.532 mole
EXAMPLES: MOLES ATOMS • How many atoms of Al are in 1.5 mol of Al? • Conversion: 1 mole = 6.02 x 1023 atoms 1.5 mol of Al 6.02 x 1023 atoms Al 1 mole Al 9.03 x 1023 atoms of Al =
CAUTION: Identify RPs Carefully! • See next slide!
EXAMPLES: MOLECULES MOLES How many atoms of H are there in 3 moles of H2O? (HINT: Are atoms the RP for water?) Conversions: 1 mole = 6.02 x 1023 molecules (b/c molecules are the RP for H2O) H2O molecule = 2 atoms of Hydrogen 6.02 x 1023molecH2O 1 mole H2O 2 atoms H 1 H2O molecule 3 moles of H2O = 3.612 x 1024 atoms H
MOLAR MASS Def: The mass of a mole of representative particles of a substance. Each elements & compound has a molar mass.
20 Ca 40.08 MOLAR MASS OF AN ELEMENT Determined simply by looking at the periodic chart Molar mass = Atomic Mass * Thus, 1 mol Ca = 40 g Atomic Mass is in amu Molar Mass is in grams
MOLAR MASS FOR COMPOUNDS • To calculate the molar mass of a compound, find the number of grams in each element in one mole of the compound • Then add the masses within the compound Example: H2O H= 1.012 (1.01) + 1 (15.999)= 18.02 g/mol O= 15.999
SOME PRACTICE PROBLEMS • How many atoms of O are in 3.7 mol of O? • 2.2 X 1024 atoms of oxygen • How many atoms of P are in 2.3 mol of P? • 1.4 x 1024 atoms of phosphorus • How many atoms of Ca are there in 2.5 moles of CaCl2? • 1.5 x 1024 atoms Ca • How many atoms of O are there in 1.7 moles of SO4? • 4.1 x 1024 atoms of oxygen
Remember!!!! • The molar mass of any substance (in grams) equals 1 mole • This applies to ALL substance: elements, molecular compounds, ionic compounds • Use molar mass to convert between mass and moles • Ex: Mass, in grams, of 6 mol of MgCl2 ? mass of MgCl2 = 6 mol MgCl2 92.21 g MgCl2 1 mol MgCl2 = 571.26 g MgCl2
VOLUME AND THE MOLE • Volume varies with changes in temperature & pressure • Gases are predictable, under the same physical conditions • Avogadro’s hypothesis helps explain: equal volume of gases, at the same temp and pressure contains equal number of particles • Ex: helium balloon
Gases vary at different temperatures, makes it hard to measure • Because of variation use STP • Standard Temperature and Pressure • Temperature = 0° C • Pressure = 1 atm (atmosphere) or 101.3 kPal
Molar Volume • At STP:1 mole, 6.02 x 1023 atoms, of any gas has a volume of 22.4 L 1 mole gas = 22.4 L gas • Called Molar Volume • Used to convert between # of moles and vol of a gas @ STP • Ex: what is the vol of 1.25 mol of sulfur 1.25 mol S 22.4 L = 28.0 L 1 mol
MOLAR MASS FROM DENSITY • Different gases have different densities • Density of a gas measured in g/L @ a specific temperature • Can use the following formula to solve : grams = grams X 22.4 L mole L 1 mole • Ex: Density of gaseous compound containing oxygen and carbon is 1.964 g/ L, what is the molar mass? • grams = 1.964 g X 22.4 L then you solve mole 1 L 1 mole = 44.o g/mol
Molarity • Def: the concentration of a solution. How many moles/liter • Can be used to calculate # of moles of a solute • Ex: Household laundry bleach is a dilute aqueous solution of sodium hypochlorite (NaClO). How many moles of solute are present in 1.5 L of 0.70 M NaClO?
Solution • v
Calculating Percent Composition of a Compound • Like all percent problems: a part ÷ the whole • Find the mass of each of the components (the elements) • Next, divide by the total mass of the compound • Then X 100 % = percent Formula: % Composition = Mass of element X 100% Mass of compound
