Page 8: CHEMICAL QUANTITIES THE MOLE CONCEPT AND ITS APPLICATIONS

CHEMICAL QUANTITIES In Chemistry the same concept is valid, Let’s talk about “The Mole” and how it relates

to Chemistry…

The Mole?

Page 11: CHEMICAL QUANTITIES THE MOLE CONCEPT AND ITS APPLICATIONS

THE MOLE? “The Mole” or “A Mole” is an amount of a

substance There are 6.02 x1023 atoms (representative

particles of a substance) in 1 Mole (of that substance).

This number (6.02 x1023) is called Avogadro’s number Named after Amedeo Avogadro di Quarenga (1776 –

1856), an Italian scientist.

Page 12: CHEMICAL QUANTITIES THE MOLE CONCEPT AND ITS APPLICATIONS

THE MOLE! Let’s put this into perspective

How much is 1 mol of a substance?

6.023 x 1023!!

Page 13: CHEMICAL QUANTITIES THE MOLE CONCEPT AND ITS APPLICATIONS

THE MOLE! IF you had 6.02 X 1023  Watermelon Seeds…

Page 14: CHEMICAL QUANTITIES THE MOLE CONCEPT AND ITS APPLICATIONS

THE MOLE! IF you had 6.02 X 1023  Watermelon Seeds… it would be found inside a watermelon slightly

larger than the moon!

Page 15: CHEMICAL QUANTITIES THE MOLE CONCEPT AND ITS APPLICATIONS

THE MOLE! If you had 6.02 X 1023 Grains of Sand…

Page 16: CHEMICAL QUANTITIES THE MOLE CONCEPT AND ITS APPLICATIONS

THE MOLE! IF you had 6.02 X 1023 Grains of Sand…

it would be more than ALL the sand on Miami Beach.

Page 17: CHEMICAL QUANTITIES THE MOLE CONCEPT AND ITS APPLICATIONS

THE MOLE? A mole is the amount of substance or

representative particles of any substance. Therefore, as we have just seen

1 mol of N2 there are 6.02x1023 MOLECULES of N2

1 mol of C12H22O11 has how many molecules?6.02x1023 can be used for “atoms” if they are the same element

OR

It can be used for “molecules” for many elements that are together, via compounds.

CHEMICAL QUANTITIES Now there is a difference between asking how

many atoms are there in the entire compound and how many atoms of one of the compound there are.

We said that there are the same number or atoms in a compound or a diatomic molecule. However, there is a difference between these questions…

THE GRAM FORMULA MASS

Page 29: CHEMICAL QUANTITIES THE MOLE CONCEPT AND ITS APPLICATIONS

CHEMICAL QUANTITIES Chemists have defined the gram atomic

mass as the number of grams of an element that is numerically equal to the atomic mass in amu The Gram atomic mass is the mass of one mole of

atoms of a monatomic element This can also be described as MOLAR MASS – in

place of gram formula mass to refer to the mass of a mole of any element or compound.

I will be using the term Molar Mass more frequently

THE VOLUME OF A MOLE OF GAS

Page 44: CHEMICAL QUANTITIES THE MOLE CONCEPT AND ITS APPLICATIONS

How would we measure the amount of moles in a gas?

Page 45: CHEMICAL QUANTITIES THE MOLE CONCEPT AND ITS APPLICATIONS

CHEMICAL QUANTITIES The volume of a gas is usually measured at

STP (Standard Temperature and Pressure) STP conditions

CHEMICAL QUANTITIES Because the molar volume of a gas is a

VOLUME, we can relate density (mass over volume) of a gas to determine the mass of the gas.

If we have a gas that has a density of 1.964 g/L we can multiply the density with the molar volume of a gas (22.4 L) to calculate the mass of the gas.

EMPIRICAL FORMULAS

Page 66: CHEMICAL QUANTITIES THE MOLE CONCEPT AND ITS APPLICATIONS

CHEMICAL QUANTITIES- EMPIRICAL FORMULAS Empirical Formula

Gives the lowest whole number ratio of the elements in a compound.

This ratio is not necessarily the molecular formula!

Calculating the empirical formula is going to require the use of almost everything you’ve learned so far.

Each element in the compound would require different amounts depending on the mass and % composition

Page 67: CHEMICAL QUANTITIES THE MOLE CONCEPT AND ITS APPLICATIONS

CHEMICAL QUANTITIES- EMPIRICAL FORMULAS Steps to solve for an Empirical Formula 1. Write down the base formula AxBY

2. Convert whatever you have into moles using dimensional analysis

3. Divide each element by the lowest number of moles in the compound

4. Round if necessary to the nearest 10ths place and/or multiply by a number to get a whole number ratio

CHEMICAL QUANTITIES- MOLECULAR FORMULASThe Molecular formula

is the actual formula of a molecular compound

While the empirical formula give us the base ratio of the compound, the molecular formula will give the actual molecular formula by using the molar mass.

x (empirical formula) = molecular formula Ratio of the

compounds

Page 75: CHEMICAL QUANTITIES THE MOLE CONCEPT AND ITS APPLICATIONS

Chemical Quantities- Molecular Formulas Therefore, if you have the molar mass of the

compound and divide it by the molar mass of the empirical formula, you will get the ratio between the two.

Multiply the ratio to each element of the compound to get the the molecular formula.

CH4N and the known molecular formula molar mass is = to 60g 1st – Take the molar mass of the empirical

formula CH4N In this case it is calculated to be 30g/mol

2nd – Divide the known molar mass of 60g/mol and divide it by 30 g/mol 60/30 = 2
