Atomic Mass
Atoms are so small, it is difficult to
discuss how much they weigh in grams.
 Use atomic mass units.
 an atomic mass unit (amu) is one twelth
the mass of a carbon-12 atom.
 This gives us a basis for comparison.
 The decimal numbers on the table are
atomic masses in amu.

They are not whole numbers
Because they are based on averages of
atoms and of isotopes.
 can figure out the average atomic mass
from the mass of the isotopes and their
relative abundance.
 add up the percent as decimals times
the masses of the isotopes.

Examples
There are two isotopes of carbon 12C with
a mass of 12.00000 amu(98.892%), and 13C
with a mass of 13.00335 amu (1.108%).
 There are two isotopes of nitrogen , one
with an atomic mass of 14.0031 amu and
one with a mass of 15.0001 amu. What is
the percent abundance of each?

The Mole
The mole is a number.
 A very large number, but still, just a
number.
 6.022 x 1023 of anything is a mole
 A large dozen.
 The number of atoms in exactly 12
grams of carbon-12.

The Mole

Makes the numbers on the table the
mass of the average atom.
Representative particles
The smallest pieces of a substance.
 For a molecular compound it is a
molecule.
 For an ionic compound it is a formula
unit.
 For an element it is an atom.

Molar mass
Mass of 1 mole of a substance.
 Often called molecular weight.
 To determine the molar mass of an
element, look on the table.
 To determine the molar mass of a
compound, add up the molar masses of
the elements that make it up.

Find the molar mass of

CH4

Mg3P2
Ca(NO3)3
 Al2(Cr2O7)3
 CaSO4 · 2H2O

Examples
How much would 2.34 moles of carbon
weigh?
 How many moles of magnesium in
24.31 g of Mg?
 How many atoms of lithium in 1.00 g of
Li?
 How much would 3.45 x 1022 atoms of
U weigh?

Percent Composition
Percent of each element a compound is
composed of.
 Find the mass of each element, divide by
the total mass, multiply by a 100.
 Easiest if you use a mole of the compound.
 Find the percent composition of CH4
 Al2(Cr2O7)3
 CaSO4 · 2H2O

Working backwards
From percent composition, you can
determine the empirical formula.
 Empirical Formula the lowest ratio of
atoms in a molecule.
 Based on mole ratios.
 A sample is 59.53% C, 5.38%H,
10.68%N, and 24.40%O what is its
empirical formula.

Pure O2 in
Sample is burned
completely to
form CO2 and
H2O
CO2 is absorbed
H2O is absorbed

A 0.2000 gram sample of a compound
(vitamin C) composed of only C, H, and
O is burned completely with excess O2 .
0.2998 g of CO2 and 0.0819 g of H2O are
produced. What is the empirical
formula?

Empirical To Molecular
Formulas
Empirical is lowest ratio.
 Molecular is actual molecule.
 Need Molar mass.
 Ratio of empirical to molar mass will
tell you the molecular formula.
 Must be a whole number because...

Example

oxygen. It is 69.6% S by mass. Its molar
mass is 184 g/mol. What is its formula?
Chemical Equations
Are sentences.
 Describe what happens in a chemical
reaction.
 Reactants  Products
 Equations should be balanced.
 Have the same number of each kind of
atoms on both sides because ...

Meaning
A balanced equation can be used to
describe a reaction in molecules and
atoms.
 Not grams.
 Chemical reactions happen molecules at
a time
 or dozens of molecules at a time
 or moles of molecules.

Stoichiometry
Given an amount of either starting
material or product, determining the

Gases and the Mole
 Many
Gases
of the chemicals we deal with are
gases.
 They are difficult to weigh.
 Need to know how many moles of gas
we have.
 Two things effect the volume of a gas
 Temperature and pressure
 Compare at the same temp. and
pressure.
Standard Temperature and
Pressure
 0ºC
and 1 atm pressure
 abbreviated STP
 At STP 1 mole of gas occupies 22.4 L
 Called the molar volume
 Avagadro’s Hypothesis - at the same
temperature and pressure equal volumes
of gas have the same number of particles.
Examples
 What
is the volume of 4.59 mole of CO2
gas at STP?
 How many moles is 5.67 L of O2 at
STP?
 What is the volume of 8.8g of CH4 gas
at STP?
Density of a gas
D = m /V
 for a gas the units will be g / L
 We can determine the density of any gas
at STP if we know its formula.
 To find the density we need the mass
and the volume.
 If you assume you have 1 mole than the
mass is the molar mass (PT)
 At STP the volume is 22.4 L.

Examples
 Find
the density of CO2 at STP.
 Find the density of CH4 at STP.
 Given
The other way
the density, we can find the molar
mass of the gas.
 Again, pretend you have a mole at STP,
so V = 22.4 L.
m = D x V
 m is the mass of 1 mole, since you have
22.4 L of the stuff.
 What is the molar mass of a gas with a
density of 1.964 g/L?
 2.86 g/L?
Stoichiometry
Greek for “measuring elements”
 The calculations of quantities in
chemical reactions based on a balanced
equation.
 We can interpret balanced chemical
equations several ways.

O2  2H2O
2 dozen molecules of hydrogen and 1
dozen molecules of oxygen form 2 dozen
molecules of water.
 2 x (6.02 x 1023) molecules of hydrogen and

2 x (6.02 x 1023) molecules of water.
 2 moles of hydrogen and 1 mole of oxygen
form 2 moles of water.
