  1. NaCl, salt Compounds & Molecules Ethanol, C2H6O Buckyball, C60

  2. Compounds & Molecules • COMPOUNDSare a combination of 2 or more elements in definite ratios by mass. • The character of each element is lost when forming a compound. • MOLECULESare the smallest unit of a compound that retains the characteristics of the compound.

  3. MOLECULAR FORMULAS • Formula for glycine is C2H5NO2 • In one molecule there are • 2 C atoms • 5 H atoms • 1 N atom • 2 O atoms

  4. WRITING FORMULAS • Can also write glycine formula as • H2NCH2COOH to show atom ordering • or in the form of a structural formula

  5. MOLECULAR MODELING Drawing of glycine Ball & stick Space-filling

  6. Resources for Molecular Modeling • Modeling software on the General Chemistry Interactive CD-ROM • CAChe — see the folder labeled CAChe on the CD-ROM • Rasmol

  7. MOLECULAR WEIGHT AND MOLAR MASS Molecular weight = sum of the atomic weights of all atoms in the molecule. Molar mass = molecular weight in grams

  8. What is the molar mass of ethanol, C2H6O? 1 mol contains 2 mol C (12.01 g C/1 mol) = 24.02 g C 6 mol H (1.01 g H/1 mol) = 6.06 g H 1 mol O (16.00 g O/1 mol) = 16.00 g O TOTAL = molar mass = 46.08 g/mol

  9. Tylenol • Formula = • Molar mass = C8H9NO2 151.2 g/mol

  10. Molar Mass

  11. How many moles of alcohol are there in a “standard” can of beer if there are 21.3 g of C2H6O? (a) Molar mass of C2H6O = 46.08 g/mol (b) Calc. moles of alcohol

  12. How many moleculesof alcohol are there in a “standard” can of beer if there are 21.3 g of C2H6O? = 2.78 x 1023 molecules We know there are 0.462 mol of C2H6O.

  13. How many atoms of Care there in a “standard” can of beer if there are 21.3 g of C2H6O? = 5.57 x 1023 C atoms There are 2.78 x 1023 molecules. Each molecule contains 2 C atoms. Therefore, the number of C atoms is

  19. IONS AND IONIC COMPOUNDSsee Screen 3.5 • IONSare atoms or groups of atoms with a positive or negative charge. • Taking away an electron from an atom gives a CATION with a positive charge • Adding an electron to an atom gives an ANION with a negative charge.

  20. Forming Cations & Anions A CATION forms when an atom loses one or more electrons. An ANION forms when an atom gains one or more electrons F + e- --> F- Mg --> Mg2+ + 2 e-

  21. PREDICTING ION CHARGES • See CD-ROM Screen 3.5 and book Figure 3.7 In general • metals (Mg) lose electrons ---> cations • nonmetals (F) gain electrons ---> anions

  37. Properties of Ionic CompoundsForming NaCl from Na and Cl2 • A metal atom can transfer an electron to a nonmetal. • The resulting cation and anion are attracted to each other by electrostatic forces.

  38. Electrostatic Forces The oppositely charged ions in ionic compounds are attracted to one another by ELECTROSTATIC FORCES. These forces are governed by COULOMB’S LAW.

  39. Electrostatic Forces COULOMB’S LAW As ion charge increases, the attractive force _______________. As the distance between ions increases, the attractive force ________________. This idea is important and will come up many times in future discussions!

  42. Naming Molecular Compounds All are formed from two or more nonmetals. CO2 Carbon dioxide Ionic compounds generally involve a metal and nonmetal (NaCl) BCl3boron trichloride CH4 methane

  43. Empirical & Molecular Formulas A pure compound always consists of the same elements combined in the same proportions by weight. Therefore, we can express molecular composition as PERCENT BY WEIGHT Ethanol, C2H6O 52.13% C 13.15% H 34.72% O

  44. Structure of NO2 Percent Composition Consider some of the family of nitrogen-oxygen compounds: NO2, nitrogen dioxide and closely related, NO, nitrogen monoxide (or nitric oxide) Chemistry of NO, nitrogen monoxide

  45. Percent Composition Consider NO2, Molar mass = ? What is the weight percent of N and of O? What are the weight percentages of N and O in NO?

  47. Mass Spectrum of Ethanol Mass Spectrum of Ethanol (from the NIST site) CH2O+ 31 CH3CH2O+ 45 CH3CH2OH+ 46

  48. Determining Formulas In chemical analysis we determine the % by weight of each element in a given amount of pure compound and derive the EMPIRICALor SIMPLESTformula. PROBLEM: A compound of B and H is 81.10% B. What is its empirical formula?
