Unit 7: Chemical Quantities Essential Questions EQ #1: What is molar mass and how can I calculate it for an element or compound? EQ#2: What is PERCENT COMPOSITION & how can I determine it for a given compound? EQ #3: Using dimensional analysis, how can I convert between moles, particles, mass, and volume* (*of a gas) of a sample of a given substance?
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
(Read, but don’t copy!) • 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”)? • They are 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, like hydrogen-H2)
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 • RPs x ____1 mole___ = MOLES 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 6.02 x 1023 atoms B = 3.15 x 1023 atoms of B 0.523 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 element & compound has a molar mass.
20 Ca 40.08 MOLAR MASS OF AN ELEMENT Determined simply by looking at the periodic table Molar mass (g) = Atomic Mass (amu) * Thus, 1 mol Ca = 40 g 1 atom of Ca weighs 40.08 amu 1 mole of Ca atoms weighs 40.08grams
MOLAR MASS FOR COMPOUNDS • To calculate the molar mass of a compound, find the number of grams of 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
MOLAR VOLUME • Gases vary at different temperatures, makes it hard to measure • To make it easier to measure gases, we use something called “STP” • “Standard Temperature and Pressure” • Temperature = 0° C • Pressure = 1 atm (atmosphere)
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 • Use it to convert between # of moles and vol of a gas @ STP • Ex: what is the volume of 1.25 mol of sulfur gas? 1.25 mol S 22.4 L S = 28.0 L 1 mol S
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
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
Method #1: % Comp When Actual Masses are Given A compound is formed when 9.03 g of Mg combines completely with 3.48 g of N. What is the percent composition of the compound? • First add the 2 mass of the 2 compounds to reach the total mass 9.03 g Mg + 3.48 g N = 12.51 g Mg3N2 2. Find the % of each compound % Mg= 9.03 g Mg X 100 = 72.2 % 12.51 g Mg3N2 % N= 3.48 g N X 100 = 27.8 % 12.51 g Mg3N2
Method 2: % Comp When Only The Formula is Known • Can find the percent composition of a compound using just the molar mass of the compound and the element • % composition=mass of the element X100% molar mass of compound • Example: Find the percent of C in CO2 12.01 g C X 100 = 27.30% C 44.01 g CO2 Molar mass of compound
Using % Composition • Can use % composition as a conversion factor just like the mole • After finding the % comp. of each element in a cmpd. can assume the total compound = 100g • Example: C= 27.3% 27.3 g C O= 72.7 % 72.7 g O • In 100 g sample of compound there is 27.3 g of C & 72.7 g of O How much C would be contained in 73 g of CO2? 73 g CO2 27.3 g C = 19.93 g C 100 g CO2
EMPIRICAL FORMULAS • Empirical formulas are the lowest WHOLE number ratios of elements contained in a compound
REMEMBER… • Molecular formulas tells the actual number of of each kind of atom present in a molecule of the compound • Ex: H2O2 HO Molecular Empirical Formula Formula CO2 CO2 Molecular Empirical For CO2 they are the same Formula Formula
Formulas for ionic compounds are ALWAYS empirical (the lowest whole number ratio = can not be reduced) • Examples: NaCl MgCl2 Al2(SO4)3 K2CO3 Simplest whole number ratio for NaCl
A formula is not just the ratio of atoms, it is also the ratio of moles • In 1 mole of CO2 there is 1 mole of carbon and 2 moles of oxygen • In one molecule of CO2 there is 1 atom of C and 2 atoms of O • Formulas for molecular compounds MIGHT be empirical (lowest whole number ratio) • Molecular: H2O C6H12O6 C12H22O11 (Correct formula) • Empirical: (Lowest whole H2O CH2O C12H22O11 number ratio)
CALCULATING EMPIRICAL • We can get a ratio from the percent composition • Assume you have a 100 g sample the percentage become grams (75.1% = 75.1 grams) • Convert grams to moles • Find lowest whole number ratio by dividing each number of moles by the smallest value
Example calculations • Calculate the empirical formula of a compound composed of 38.67 % C, 16.22 % H, and 45.11 %N • Assume 100 g sample, so 38.67 g C x 1 mol C = 12.0 g C 16.22 g H x 1 mol H = 1.0 g H 45.11 g N x 1 mol N = 14.0 g N *Now divide each value by the smallest value 3.22 mole C 16.22 mole H 3.22 mole N
…Example 1 • The ratio is 3.22 mol C = 1 mol C 3.22 mol N 1 mol N • The ratio is 16.22 mol H = 5 mol H 3.22 mol N 1 mol N C1H5N1 which is = CH5N
MORE PRACTICE • A compound is 43.64 % P and 56.36 % O What is the empirical formula? PO3 • Caffeine is 49.48% C, 5.15% H, 28.87% N and 16.49% O What is its empirical formula? C4H5N2O
EMPIRICAL TO MOLECULAR • Since the empirical formula is the lowest ratio, the actual molecule would weigh more • Divide the actual molar mass by the empirical formula mass – you get a whole number to increase each coefficient in the empirical formula
EXAMPLE • Caffeine has a molar mass of 194 g, what is its molecular formula? • Find the mass of the empirical formula, C4H5N2O • Divide the molar mass by the empirical mass: 194.0 g/mol = 97.1 g/mol • Now multiply the entire empirical formula by 2 2(C4H5N2O) = final molecular formula 2 C8H10N4O2
