FORMULA MATH & THE MOLE
The Mole Measuring Matter
In Chemistry, we commonly measure: • Mass (grams) • Volume (L or mL) • Particles (counted)
We can relate each of these measurements to a single quantity called the “Mole”.
The Mole is the SI unit for the “amount of something”
Why use it? • To estimate the number of particles that are too small or too numerous to actually count.
1.0 mole = 22.4 Liters of a gas, at standard temperature and pressure (STP) • Std. temp. = 0º C or 273K • Std. pressure = 1 atmosphere (atm) or 760 mm Hg (Torr)
1 mole = 6.022 x 1023particles of a pure substance. * Element = atom * Molecular = molecule (mlc) *Ionic = formula unit (fmu)
1.0 mole = ____ grams of a pure substance. (“Molar Mass” of that substance)
Molar Mass – mass, in grams, of 1 mole of a pure substance.
What is the Molar Mass of: • Carbon tetrachloride
Calculating with Moles
Remember…. 1 mole = 6.022 x 1023 particles = 22.4 liters of gas, at STP ______ grams (Molar Mass)
Steps to calculate: READ directions in Lecture Packet.
Example What is the mass of 45.8 L of carbon dioxide gas, at STP?
Example: How many moles are equal to 3.01 x 10 22 atoms of magnesium?
Example: How many molecules are in 38.69 grams of chlorine gas?
Example: What is the volume, in L, at STP, occupied by 0.600 moles of sulfur dioxide gas?
Comparing amounts • 1 mole CCl4 = • 6.022 x 1023 molecules • _153.81_ grams • Liters is N/A (not a gas)
Comparing amounts • 1 mole O2 = • 6.022 x 1023 molecules • _32.00_ grams • 22.4 Liters, at STP
Comparing amounts • 1 mole Al2(CO3)3 = • 6.022 x 1023 formula units • _233.99_ grams • Liters is N/A (not a gas)
How big is a Mole? • If you have a mole of pennies and divide them equally among the 6 billion people on Earth, how many dollars would each person get?
= $1x1012 person x 1$ 100 pennies 6.022 X1023 pennies 6 x 109 people Each person would get ~ $ 1 trillion!!!
Think about it... What is the percent composition of the number of boys to girls in this classroom?
Now, think about this... What is the percent composition of the weight of boys to girls in this classroom?
In Chemistry, it’s calculated the same way, except we consider the make-up of compounds.
What information does % Composition give us? The percent, by mass, of each element in a compound.
Formula: grams element ------------------------ X 100 = % grams compound
2 Ways To Calculate: 1) Chemical Formula is given 2) Masses are given (no formula given)
If formula is given: • Write chemical formula. • Count atoms of each element in compound. • Multiply by Mass Number from P.T.(round all mass # to the 10th). • Add answers. • Plug numbers into formula and solve.
Example #1 What is the percent composition of water?
Example#2 What is the % composition of aluminum chromate?
If masses are given: 1) g element + g element g compound *Remember the Law Of Conservation Of Mass
Example#3 What is the percent composition of a compound if 27.07 grams of calcium completely reacts with 47.93 grams of chlorine?
