Transcript The Mole

Aim: What is the Mole?
Do Now: Answer should be in the correct number of significant figures.
1. 4.9 × 102 + 7.9 × 103
3. (1.247 × 10–3) ÷ (2.9 × 10–2)
2. 4.9 × 10-6 - 7.9 × 10-5
4. (2.6 × 105) (9.2 × 10–13)
Counting large numbers…
• Easier when you use counting units:
Dozen
Ream
Pair
Gross
• Regardless of the object, the number that the
units represents is always the same
• Atoms and molecules are extremely small,
making it impossible actually count them (even in
the smallest of samples)
• Chemists need a unit for counting accurately the
# of atoms, molecules, or formula units; they use
the mole
• Mole (mol) = the SI base unit used to measure
the amount of a substance
• 1 mole of anything contains 6.02 x 1023
representative particles
1 mole of apples =
6.02 x 1023 apples
1 mole of diamonds =
6.02 x 1023 diamonds
1 mole of baseballs =
6.02 x 1023 baseballs
1 mole of carbon atoms =
6.02 x 1023 carbon atoms
The same applies to moles of compounds
• How many molecules are in 1 mol NH3?
6.02 x 1023 NH3 molecules
• How many molecules are in 1 mol C9H8O4?
6.02 x 1023 C9H8O4 molecules
What is Avogadro’s Number
• 6.02 X 1023 representative particles/mol
• 1 mol of any substance has 6.02 X 1023 representative
particles
What are representative particles?
• Representative particles refers to the species present
in a substance: usually atoms, molecules, or formula
units
Converting Particles to Moles
• How many roses are in 3 ½ dozen?
USE CONVERSION FACTORS!!!
3.5 dozen x 12 roses =42 roses
1 dozen
• How many pencils are in 6 gross?
6 gross x 144 pencils =864 pencils
1 gross

Conversion factor
• A conversion factor is used to convert a
measured quantity to a different unit of
measure without changing the relative amount.
To accomplish this, a ratio (fraction) is
established that equals one (1)

• How many moles contain 4.50 x 1024 atoms of zinc?
4.50 x 1024 atoms Zn x 1 mol zinc
6.02 x 1023 atoms Zn
7.48 mol Zn
