Chemical Quantities
Counting Particles By Weighing


If a person requests 500 quarter inch
hexagonal nuts for purchase
How would you count 500 hex nuts?
a) You could count the hex nuts individually
b) Or, count the number of hex nuts by weight

First, find the average weight by weighing out 10 hex nuts
and obtaining the total weight (10 hex nuts weigh 105 g)
105 g
 10.5 g / hex nut
10 hex nuts
Average

Counting Particles By Weighing


What size (wt.) will
contain 500 hex nuts?
Calculate what weight
will contain 500 hex
nuts
10.5 g
500 hex nuts 
 5250 g
hex nut

So, weigh out 5.25 kg
of the hex nuts
Using Atomic Mass to Count Atoms

Can do the exact same thing with atoms
 Too small to conveniently count
 Atoms of the same element don’t always have
exactly the same mass (isotopes) so use an
Average Mass
 Grams are too large to use to measure an atom so
use Atomic Mass Units (amu)
1 amu  1.66  10

g
Atomic Mass and Formula Mass


To calculate the mass
of a sample of atoms
 Each element exists
as a mixture of
isotopes
 Use a “weighted
average” for the
atomic mass
Number on the bottom
of each square in the
periodic table is the
average weight of the
element (in amu)
Atomic Mass and Formula Mass



Atomic masses are
determined on a
relative scale
The standard scale
references the
carbon-12 isotope =
12.000 amu
All other atomic
masses are
determined relative to
carbon-12

Using Atomic Mass to Count Atoms
Calculating the number of atoms in a specific mass
If you have a sample of an element, can calculate the
number of atoms in that sample
From the atomic mass per one atom a conversion
factor can be made
For example: One nitrogen atom has an atomic mass
of 14.01 amu
1 N atom  14.01 amu
14.01 amu
1 N atom
and
1 N atom
14.01 amu

Calculating The Number of Atoms in a
Specific Mass
You have a 1.00 g sample of lead. How many
atoms of lead are present?
1.00 g Pb
1 atom Pb = 207.2 amu
1.66 10-24 g = 1 amu
1.00 g Pb
1 amu
1.66 x 1024 g

Formula Mass



The sum of atomic masses of all atoms in
its formula
Important role in nearly all chemical
calculations
Can be calculated for compounds and
diatomic elements
Calculating Formula Mass





Calculate the formula mass of calcium chloride
Write the formula from the name given
Ca2+ (from group II) and Cl- (from group VII)
Formula is CaCl2 due to charge balance
Formula mass: Sum of the atomic masses of
atoms in the formula (1 Ca atom + 2 Cl atoms)
40.08 amu
= 40.08 amu
1 Ca atom
35.45 amu
2 Cl atom 
= 70.90 amu
1 Cl atom
1 Ca atom 
110.98 amu
Formula mass of CaCl2
Counting Large Quantities




Many chemical calculations require counting atoms
and molecules
It is difficult to do chemical calculations in terms of
atoms or formula units
Since atoms are so small, extremely large numbers
are needed in calculations
Need to use a special counting unit just as used for
other items
 A ream of paper
 One dozen donuts
 A pair of shoes
The Mole



It is more convenient to use a special counting unit
for such large quantities of particles
Mole: A unit that contains 6.022 х 1023 objects
It is used due to the extremely small size of atoms,
molecules, and ions



6.022x1023 particles in 1 mole
Called Avogadro’s Number
Periodic Table



The average atomic mass in amu (one atom)
The weight of 1 mole of the element in grams
Avogadro’s number provides the connecting
relationship between molar masses and atomic
masses

Molecules in a Mole

Subscripts State Moles of Elements



The subscripts in a chemical formula indicate the
number of atoms of each element present in a
compound
The subscripts in a chemical formula can also
indicate the number of moles of atoms of each
element present in one mole of a compound
i.e. In one molecule of glucose (C6H12O6) there
are 6 atoms of carbon, 12 atoms of hydrogen,
and 6 atoms of oxygen

amu
The atomic mass of one mole of carbon-12
atoms 12.00 g
One mole of any element is the amount of
atoms (molecules or ions) that is equal to its
atomic mass (in grams)
This mass contains 6.022 х 1023 particles of
that element
Use the periodic table to obtain the molar
mass of any element
Molar Mass

When the number of grams (weighed out) of a
substance equals the formula mass of that
substance, Avogadro’s number of molecules of
that substance are present
