  1. Section 3.6—Counting Molecules • Objectives • Define a mole and Avogadro’s number • Define and calculate molar mass • Define molecular and atomic mass as mass for 1 mole of particles • Perform calculations between numbers of moles, particles, and masses So the number of molecules affects pressure of an airbag…how do we “count” molecules?

  2. What is a mole? Mole– SI unit for counting The only acceptable abbreviation for “mole” is “mol”…not “m”!! You have had experience with counting units before: Dozen = counting unit that means “12” A dozen eggs is 12 eggs. Pair = counting unit that means “2” A pair of mittens is 2 mittens.

  3. The Mole Since atoms and molecules are extremely small, even if we have a small sample, the number of molecules would be overwhelming. For example, one drop of water contains about 5 x 1020 molecules. 500,000,000,000,000,000,000 molecules!! These huge numbers are impractical! Using the “mole” counting unit, it becomes more manageable. 1 drop of water is about 8 x 10-4 (0.0008) moles.

  4. The Mole 1 mole of anything = 6.02  1023 of those things (This number is called Avogadro’s number) “mole” 6.02  1023 1 mole of doughnuts 6.02  1023 doughnuts 1 mole of atoms 6.02  1023 atoms 6.02  1023 molecules 1 mole of molecules

  5. Converting Between Moles & Molecules Remember: 1 mole = 6.02 x 1023 particles Use dimensional analysis to go from moles to particles: 3.24 mol Fe x 6.02 x 1023 atoms = 1 mole Use dimensional analysis to go from particles to moles: 9.56 atoms Fe x 1 mole = 6.02 x 1023 atoms

  6. Practice #1: Molecules & Moles Example: How many molecules of water are in 1.25 moles?

  7. Practice #1: Molecules & Moles Example: How many molecules of water are in 1.25 moles? 1 mol = 6.021023 molecules 1.25 mol H2O Molecules H2O 6.02  1023 = _______ molecules H2O 7.521023 1 mol H2O

  8. Practice #2 Example: How many moles are equal to 2.8 × 1022 molecules

  9. Practice #2 Example: How many moles are equal to 2.8 × 1022 molecules 1 mol = 6.021023 molecules 1 mole 2.8 × 1022molecules = _______ moles 0.047 6.02  1023 molecules

  10. How is a mole related to mass?

  11. Molar Mass Molar Mass– The mass for one mole of atoms or molecules. Unit for molar mass: g/mole or g/mol

  12. For Elements Mass of 1 mole = the atomic mass of the element in grams Recall: Atomic mass is found on the periodic table. In THIS CLASS, we will round the atomic mass to the nearest 0.1 g

  13. Examples Mass Element 12.0 g 1 mole of carbon atoms 16.0 g 1 mole of oxygen atoms 1 mole of hydrogen atoms 1.0 g

  14. Practice • 1. Determine the molar mass of helium. • Determine the molar mass of lead. • What is the mass of 1 mole of chlorine atoms?

  15. Molar Mass for Compounds Mass of 1 mole = *SUM of the atomic masses of all elements in the compound, in grams *The sum of the atomic masses of all the elements in a compound is also called the formula mass or the gram formula mass.

  16. Practice: Calculate the Molar Mass of CaCl2 1 Count the number of each type of atom 1 Ca and 2 Cl Find the mass of each atom on the periodic table Ca = 40.1 and Cl = 35.5 2 Multiple the # of atoms  mass for each atom 1 x 40.1 = 40.1 for Ca 2 x 35.5 = 71.0 for Cl 3 4 Find the sum of all the masses 40.1 + 71.0 = 111.1 g/mol

  17. Example 1: Molar Mass Example: Find the molar mass for CaBr2

  18. Example 1: Molar Mass 1 Count the number of each type of atom Example: Find the molar mass for CaBr2 Ca 1 Br 2

  19. Example 1: Molar Mass 2 Find the molar mass of each atom on the periodic table Example: Find the molar mass for CaBr2 Ca 1 40.1 g/mole Br 2 79.9 g/mole

  20. Example 1: Molar Mass 3 Multiple the # of atoms  molar mass for each atom Example: Find the molar mass for CaBr2  Ca 1 40.1 g/mole 40.1 g/mole =  159.8 g/mole Br 2 79.9 g/mole =

  21. Example 1: Molar Mass 4 Find the sum of all the masses Example: Find the molar mass for CaBr2  Ca 1 40.1 g/mole 40.1 g/mole =  + 159.8 g/mole Br 2 79.9 g/mole = 199.9 g/mole 1 mole of CaBr2 molecules would have a mass of 199.9 g

  22. Example 2: Molar Mass Be sure to distribute the subscript outside the parenthesis to each element inside the parenthesis. Example: Find the molar mass for Sr(NO3)2

  23. Example: Molar Mass & Parenthesis Be sure to distribute the subscript outside the parenthesis to each element inside the parenthesis. Example: Find the molar mass for Sr(NO3)2 Sr  1 87.6 g/mole 87.6 g/mole =  N 2 14.0 g/mole 28.0 g/mole =  + 96.0 g/mole O 6 16.0 g/mole = 211.6 g/mole 1 mole of Sr(NO3)2 molecules would have a mass of 211.6 g

  24. Let’s Practice #1 Example: Find the molar mass for Al(OH)3

  25. Let’s Practice #1 Be sure to distribute the subscript outside the parenthesis to each element inside the parenthesis. Example: Find the molar mass for Al(OH)3 Al  1 27.0 g/mole 27.0 g/mole =  O 3 16.0 g/mole 48.0 g/mole =  + 3.0 g/mole H 3 1.0 g/mole = 78.0 g/mole 1 mole of Al(OH)3 molecules would have a mass of 78.0 g
