3/5/09 Atomic Masses The atoms of different elements have different masses: Since the mass of an atom is very small, we use a special unit to describe it… 1 u = 1/12 the mass of C‐12 For Example: The Magnesium atom has 12 protons, 12 neutrons, and 12 electrons. Since protons and neutrons have the same mass of approximately 1 u, the atomic mass at Magnesium is 24.3 u. Try some… Molecular Masses If we add up the masses of ALL the atoms that make up a molecule or a formula unit, we can calculate the atoms MOLECULAR MASS. For Example: Consider NaCl: 1 x Na = 23.o u 1 x Cl = 35.5 u 1 x NaCl = 58.5 u Avogadro’s Number and! the Mole! When I buy eggs, how many come in a carton? How many doughnuts in a box? How many cans of pop in case? ∴12 = 1 dozen 1 3/5/09 The measure of a mole is always the same: Because chemists deal with such large amounts of particles, it is easier to work with moles of particles. What makes the mole useful is that we can use it to convert between the mass of an element (in grams) and the number of atoms present. For Example: Could be written as 32.0 g/mol How big is a mole? 1 mole of marshmallows would be enough marshmallows to make a 19 km thick layer of marshmallows covering the entire face of the Earth. If I won a mole of dollars in the lottery that would be equal to: $602,000,000,000,000,000,000,000.00 (602 sextillion dollars) 1 mole of popcorn kernels could be spread uniformly over the USA if the thickness of the layer was about 14 km. 2 3/5/09 Homework: Find the molar mass of the following: Do: W.S. 10‐1 W.S. 4‐1 #1, 2 Using the Mole DETERMINE THE MASS OF A SUBSTANCE GIVEN THE NUMBER OF MOLES Using Avogadro’s number and what we’ve learned from dimensional analysis, we can now do.. MOLE CONVERSIONS!!!! For Example: What is the mass in grams of 3.25 mol of CO2? How many moles of CH3OH are there in 0.250 g of CH3OH? CONVERSIONS BETWEEN NUMBERS OF PARTICLES AND MOLES OF PARTICLES You must determine the number of moles that are present, given the number of particles present. Use the following conversion factors: 3 3/5/09 For Example: How many moles of Carbon are there in 3.01x1024 C atoms? CONVERSIONS BETWEEN NUMBER OF MOLES AND THE VOLUME OF A GAS Calculations involving gas volumes are simplified by Avogadro’s Hypothesis: How many molecules does 3.65 moles of Nitrogen dioxide contain? Equal volumes of different gasses, at the same temperature and pressure, contain the same number of particles. STP = 273 K (0ºC ) and 101.3 kPa For Example: What is the volume occupied by 0.350 mol of SO2(g) at STP? How many moles of gas are contained in a balloon with a volume of 10.0 L at STP?

How many atoms are there in 5 molecules of CuSO4•5H2O? Before trying multi‐step conversions, there is one more type of conversion factor to be aware of: How many Hydrogen atoms are there in 30 molecules of H3PO4? Always remember: For Example: What is the volume occupied by 50.0 g of NH3(g) at STP? Problems involving density require you to recall: What is the mass of 1.00x1012 atoms of Cl? How many Oxygen atoms are contained in 75.0 L of SO3(g) at STP? Where: d = density (in g/mL or kg/L) m = mass (in g or kg) V = volume (in mL or L) 5 3/5/09 For Example: Homework: What is the volume occupied by 3.00 mol of ethanol, CH3CH2OH(l)?

Study for Quiz (in two classes). Due in two classes… work block tomorrow. A 2.50 L bulb contains 4.91 g of a gas at STP. What is the molar mass of the gas? Al2O3(s) has a density of 3.97 g/mL. How many atoms of Al are in 100mL of Al2O3? Percentage Composition For Example: What is the percentage composition of CH4? What is the percentage composition of H2SO4? What is the percentage of water in CuSO4 • 5H2O? Empirical Formula For Example: What is the empirical formula of a compound consisting of 80.0% C and 20.0 % H? A compound contains 58.8% C, 7.3% H, and 34.1% N. What is the empirical formula of the compound? All of CH2, C2H4, C3H6, C4H8, and C5H10 contain twice as many H’s as C’s and therefore the empirical formula for all these molecules is CH2. What is the empirical formula of a compound containing 81.8% C and 18.2% H? What is the empirical formula of a compound containing 39.0% Si and 61% O? 6 3/5/09 Molecular Formulae The molecular formula gives the actual number of atoms of each element in a molecular compound. The molecular formula can be found by dividing the molar mass of the compound by the empirical formula mass. Homework: For Example: Find the molecular formula for a compound that contains 4.90 g N and 11.2 g O. The molar mass of the compound is 92.0 g/mol. β‐carotene, a compound found in carrots, can be broken down to form vitamin A. The empirical formula for β‐carotene is C5H7. The molar mass of β‐carotene is 536 g/mol. What is the molecular formula for β‐carotene? Molar Concentration Do: % Composition W.S. W.S. 10‐3 A couple of things to keep in mind… 7 3/5/09 Making Up Solutions Using a balance, obtain the required mass of solute in a beaker. The more precise the balance the better. Dissolve the solid in distilled water. Use a beaker and stirring rod. Transfer the solution and rinse all equipment into a clean volumetric flask. Rinse at least three times to transfer all solution. Use a stirring rod and funnel to transfer the solution. The following defines molar concentration: Add distilled water up to the calibration line on the flask. An eye dropper may be used. Avoid parallax error. Look directly at the line. Stopper the volumetric flask and mix the contents thoroughly. Invert and shake 10 times, holding the flask closed. For Example: What is the [NaCl] in a solution containing 5.12 g of NaCl in 250.0 mL of solution? What mass of NaOH is contained in 3.50 L of 0.200 M NaOH?

Dilution Calculations A simple dilution of a chemical in solution. 8 3/5/09 Mixing two solutions having different concentrations of the same chemical. For Example: If 200.0 mL of 0.500 M NaCl is added to 300.0 mL of water, what is the resulting [NaCl] in the mixture What will the concentration of a BaCl2 solution be if 23.0 mL of 0.317 M BaCl2 is added to a 100.0 mL volumetric flask, and diluted to 100.0 mL? Making dilute solutions from concentrated solutions. For Example: If 300.0 mL of 0.250 M NaCl is added to 500.0 mL of 0.100 M NaCl, what is the resulting [NaCl] of the mixture? If a student mixes 430.0 mL of 0.100 M BaCl2 with 125.0 mL of 0.325 M KI, what is the resulting [KI] in the final mixture? The procedure used is similar to the first scenario, but now we are solving for […]old or Vinitial. This requires us to re‐arrange the equation from before to solve for the unknown variable. For Example: What volume of 6.00 M HCl is used in making up 2.00 L of 0.125 M HCl? What volume of 15.4 M HNO3 is needed to make up 500.0 mL of 0.100 M HNO3?
