Stoichiometry
The mathematics of Chemistry
What is Stoichiometry?
The proportional relationship between two
or more substances during a chemical
reaction.
In other words, using dimensional analysis
to convert one substance to another
There are many different types, but they
are all similar.
So, let’s start small. How small?
We know an atom is
extremely small, but how
small is an atom?
In other words, how small is the
smallest particle of an element that
retains the properties of the element?
World Population: about 6000000000
Number of atoms in a penny:
about 29700000000000000000000 or 2.97 x 1022
How do we get that
number?
By using Avogadro's Number
6.02 x 1023
and using dimensional analysis
again
What is Avogadro’s Number?
It is 6.02 x 1023 atoms per mole
What is a mole?
The number of atoms in exactly 12 grams
of carbon-12 and it is the SI unit for the
amount of a substance
Example problems
– 6.33 x 1024 atoms of C are how many
moles?
– How many atoms of Zn are in 3.5 moles?
The mole is also related to
molar mass
Molar Mass – the mass in grams of 1 mol
of an element, ion, compound, etc.
Represented by g/mol (what we did last
class)
Example problems
– 92.6 g of CO2 equals how many moles?
– 1.25 moles of S8 equals how many
grams?
Atomic Mass Units verses Molar
Mass
The mass in grams of 1 mol of an element
is numerically equal to the element’s
atomic mass from the periodic table in
atomic mass units.
In other words, 1 g/mol = 1 amu
They are interchangeable
Putting it all together. Let’s look
at our penny again
How did they get that number for the
number of Cu atoms in a penny?
A penny has an average mass of 3.13 g.
Copper weighs 63.546 amu (g/mol), which
we found on the periodic table
Here’s the game plan. We want to go
from grams to atoms, but we have to
always go through the mole. So, we will
go from g moles atoms
Example Problems
3.13 g Cu x
0.049255 mol Cu x
1 mol Cu
63.546 g Cu
6.02 x 1023
1 mol Cu
= 0.049255 mol Cu
= 2.97 x 1022 Cu atoms
So, this is doing two types
of Stoichiometry Problems.
Atoms moles
Grams moles
Summary Slide #1
How is a mole related to atoms?
What is the magic number?
Avogadro’s number (NA)– 6.02 x 1023
atoms (molecules, ions, whatever)/mole
When going from moles to atoms
(multiply):
6.02 x 1023 atoms
1 mol
When going from atoms to moles (divide):
1 mol
6.02 x 1023 atoms
Summary Slide #2
How is the mole related to mass?
Molar Mass
For an element, it is the mass from the
periodic table
For compounds, you must calculate the
molecular weight of the compound.
Sometimes, before one can work with a
mass, you have to use the density of the
substance. (D=m/V or m=DV)
Summary Slide #3
How is a mole related to mass?
When going from moles to grams
(multiply):

1 mol
When going from grams to moles (divide):
