Balancing chemical equations
The Law of Conservation of Matter: In a chemical (non-
nuclear) reaction, atoms are neither created nor destroyed.
For an equation to be balanced the number of atoms of each element is
the same on both sides of the equation.

1.2: The Mole Concept
Understandings:
1.
The mole is a fixed number of particles and refers
to the amount ,n, of a substance.
2.
Masses of atoms are compared on a scale relative
to 12C and are expressed as relative atomic mass
(Ar) and relative formula/molecular mass (Mr)
3.
Molar Mass (M) has the units g mol-1
4.
The empirical formula and molecular formula of a
compound give the simplest ratio and the actual
number of atoms present in a molecule
respectively.
1.2: The Mole Concept
Applications and Skills:
1. Calculation of the molar masses of atoms, ions, molecules
and formula units.
2. Solutions of problems involving the relationships between
the number of particles, the amount of substance in moles
and the mass in grams.
3. Inter conversion of the percentage composition by mass
and the empirical formula
4. Determination of the molecular formula of a compound
from its empirical formula and molar mass
5. Obtaining and using experimental data for deriving
empirical formulas from reactions involving mass changes.

1.2 U2. Relative atomic mass (Ar)
and relative molecular mass (Mr).

The relative atomic mass (Ar) of an element is the
weighted mean mass of all of the naturally occurring
isotopes of an element relative to one twelfth of the
mass of a carbon-12 atom.
 This explains why the relative atomic masses given in
data books are not exactly whole numbers.
 Relative atomic masses have no units.
 (This is review from the Unit on Atomic Structure and
Relative Atomic Mass calculations)
35
1.2 U2. Relative atomic mass (Ar)
and relative molecular mass (Mr).

The relative molecular mass or formula mass (Mr) of a
compound is the sum of the relative atomic masses of
the elements in the compound.

experimental and percentage yield.
The theoretical yield from a chemical reaction is the yield
calculated by assuming the reaction goes to completion.
In practice we often do not obtain as much product from a
reaction mixture as theoretically possible due to a number
of factors:

Many reactions do not go to completion

Some reactants may undergo two or more reactions
simultaneously forming undesired products

Not all of the desired product can be separated from the
rest of the products
The amount of a specified pure product actually obtained from
a given reaction is the experimental or actual yield.
