How we count atoms quickly

We have words that represent numbers that we use everyday.

FOR INSTANCE:– A dozen always = 12 items– A ream of paper always = 500 sheets of

paper– A trio always = 3 of the item.

SO IN CHEMISTRY………..

…. we have the mole

1 mole = 6.02 x 1023 particles

AND

6.02 x 1023 is called

Avogadro’s number

Page 6: 1 The MOLE. 2 Atoms and molecules are very, very small, but we still need to “count” them.

1 mole of Al atoms = 6.02 x 1023 Al

atoms1 mole H2O molecules = 6.02 x 1023 H2O

molecules1 mole jelly donuts = 6.02 x 1023 jelly

donuts1 mole of = 6.02 x 1023

6.02 x 1023 is a VERY large

number

If Kevin took 1 mole of steps, each 15 cm long, he would

walk around the earth 2.26 x 1015 times, which is 2,260,000,000,000,000 or

2,260 trillion times!

Page 10: 1 The MOLE. 2 Atoms and molecules are very, very small, but we still need to “count” them.

10

We cannot count

6.02 x 1023 Al atoms, it is just too too many.

Page 11: 1 The MOLE. 2 Atoms and molecules are very, very small, but we still need to “count” them.

11

We can, however, measure 26.98 grams

of Al.

Page 12: 1 The MOLE. 2 Atoms and molecules are very, very small, but we still need to “count” them.

12

26.98 grams of Al contains 6.02 x 1023 Al

atoms!

Page 13: 1 The MOLE. 2 Atoms and molecules are very, very small, but we still need to “count” them.

13

26.98 grams of Al contains 1 mole of Al

atoms!

Page 14: 1 The MOLE. 2 Atoms and molecules are very, very small, but we still need to “count” them.

14

The formula weight of any substance = mass of 1 mole of that substance in grams.

(26.98 grams is the formula weight of Al.)

So 26.98 grams of Aluminum is ONE mole of Aluminum.

Page 15: 1 The MOLE. 2 Atoms and molecules are very, very small, but we still need to “count” them.

15

The formula weight of any element is the weight of an atom/molecule expressed in amu’s.

(26.98 amu is also the atomic mass of Al)

Page 16: 1 The MOLE. 2 Atoms and molecules are very, very small, but we still need to “count” them.

16

More about amu

While amu is a valid unit for expressing weights of atoms and molecules, we are not going to be using it that often.

The reason is that it is the mass of a single unit and we are not able to use a single unit, since it is too small.

Know the definition of amu and all is well.

Page 17: 1 The MOLE. 2 Atoms and molecules are very, very small, but we still need to “count” them.

17

The formula weight of any compound is the sum of the formula weights of all the atoms in that compound, expressed in grams.

(The formula weight of H2O = 18 grams per mole. (g / n ))

Page 18: 1 The MOLE. 2 Atoms and molecules are very, very small, but we still need to “count” them.

Identical Terms The following terms on the next slide are often

interchangeable . – All can be expressed in grams or amu depending on

the application.– The term mass or weight is also often

interchangeable. Since all of our calculations will be done on Planet Earth, the gravity is constant so we can make this simplification.

Here are the terms. Formula weight: The most general of all the

terms on this list. Atomic weight (or mass): The weight of a mole

of a single element. Molecular weight (or mass): The weight of a

mole of a single compound. Molar mass: The weight of one mole of

material. Just a rephrasing of above.

Molar conversions: The magic formula

Mass in grams of an element or compound divided by molar mass = number of moles.

We can make this into a formula and this is without a doubt the

MOST IMPORTANT FORMULA

IN CHEMISTRY.

Page 21: 1 The MOLE. 2 Atoms and molecules are very, very small, but we still need to “count” them.

21

The MAGIC FORMULA

The formula referred to on the earlier slide is:

Moles = Grams / Formula Weight OR

n = g / M

This is not a formula –

This is THE FORMULA !!

Page 22: 1 The MOLE. 2 Atoms and molecules are very, very small, but we still need to “count” them.

22

Quantity conversions: Moles to number of particles

Number of atoms or molecules divided by Avogadro’s number = number of moles.

Set up a proportion !!

We can all cross-multiply

1 mole = x moles

6.02 x 1023 y particles

Moles to Liters

If the material is a gas, we can use the fact that 1 mole of gas = 22.4 Liters to find its volume.

We should set up a proportion. 1 mole = x moles

22.4 L y Liters

Page 26: 1 The MOLE. 2 Atoms and molecules are very, very small, but we still need to “count” them.

28

Subscripts in chemical formulas can help us represent moles!

Since 1 molecule of CO2 contains 1 atom of C and 2 atoms of O, then…

1 dozen molecules of CO2 contain 1 dozen atoms of C and 2 dozen atoms of O, and…

1 mole CO2 contains 1 mole C and 2 moles O !

This is a very useful relationship.

Molarity

Concentration of a solution, i.e. the amount of solute that is dissolved in a given amount of solvent

number of moles of solute per liter of solution

Units = mol/L OR n / L

Percent Composition Percent that each part of a substance is of the

whole, by mass. The whole mass is always the formula weight !

The sum of the percents must = 100 % % part = (mass of part / mass of whole) x 100 % The percent composition of CO2 is as follows…

Wt. of C = 12g Wt. of O = 16g FW = 44 g

% C = (12 / 44) x 100 % = 27.27 %

% O = ((2 x 16 ) / 44) x 100 % = 72.73 %

Empirical Formula

Formula expressing the simplest whole number ratio of atoms in a compound

The empirical formula is often not the TRUE formula.

It is used to identify a compound in situations like forensics or learning about a new compound.

Page 30: 1 The MOLE. 2 Atoms and molecules are very, very small, but we still need to “count” them.

32

More on Empirical Formula C6H12O6 has an empirical formula CH2O

Found by calculating the ratio of the moles of each element in the compound.

STEPS (also found on the website)– Convert each given to number of moles.

Assume a 100 gram sample if needed.

– Divide by the lowest number of moles to get a ratio.– Manipulate the values so they are whole numbers.

Molecular Formula Determining the True or Actual Formula of the

compound. The empirical formula is needed first. The weight of the molecular formula is given.

– It will always be a multiple of the empirical formula.

The molecular formula is a multiple of the empirical formula.

CH2 is the empirical formula for all of the following: C2H4 C3H6 C4H8 C6H12 and many more
