The Mole (Chapter 10) Dr. Walker
The Mole in Chemistry Not this!! Not this!!!
The Mole The mole is a counting unit 1 pair = 2 1 dozen = 12 1 mole = 6.022 x 1023atoms This number is known as Avogadro s number after Italian chemist Amedeo Avogadro
The mole One mole can be equal to three different things 6.022 x 1023atoms The atomic mass in grams of an atom or compound 22.4 L (volume) of any gas at 25 oC and 1 atm pressure (known as STP)
Molar Mass The atomic mass of any element is the weighted average of all isotopes of an element This is also the molar mass of the element Examples H = 1.01 g/mole O = 16.00 g/mole C = 12.01 g/mole P = 30.97 g/mole Cl = 35.45 g/mole
Molar Mass The molar mass of a compound is the sum of all atomic weights of all atoms in the compound!
Molar Mass Examples For compounds H2O H = 1.01 g/mole x 2 O = 16.00 g/mole x 1 =18.02 g/mole
Molar Mass Examples Another example CH4 C = 12.01 g/mole = 12.01 H = 1.01 g/mole x 4 = 4.04 16.05 g/mole
Molar Mass Examples Another Example C6H12O6 C = 12.01 g/mole x 6 = 72.06 H = 1.01 g/mole x 12 = 12.12 O = 16.00 g/mole x 6 = 96.00 180.18 g/mole
Molar Mass Examples Another Example Polyatomics Pb(SO4)2 Pb = 207.20 S = 32.07 g/mole x 2 = 64.14 O = 16.00 g/mole x 8 = 128.00 399.34 g/mole Notice you must multiply the subscript inside the parentheses by the number outside to get the right number of atoms
Practice Find the molar mass of the following compounds: LiOH SO2 Mg(NO3)2 Al2(CO3)3 C9H8O4 C8H10N4O2 C22H30N6O4S
Practice Find the molar mass of the following compounds: LiOH 6.94 + 16.00 + 1.01 = 23.95 g/mole SO2 32.06 + 2(16.00) = 64.06 g/mole Mg(NO3)2 24.31 + 2(14.01) + 6(16.00) = 148.33 g/mole Al2(CO3)3 2(26.98) + 3(12.01) + 9(16.00) = 233.99 g/mole C9H8O4 9(12.01) + 8(1.01) + 4(16.00) = 180.17 g/mole C8H10N4O2 8(12.01) + 10(1.01) + 4(14.01) + 2(16.00) = 194.22 g/mole C22H30N6O4S 22(12.01) + 30(1.01) + 6(14.01) + 4(16.01) + 1(32.06) = 474.68 g/mole
Mass-Mole Conversions Convert from mass to mole (or vice versa) using the molar mass of a given element or compound Use dimensional analysis (t-square)

Mole-Particle conversions Can go to or from moles from particles Atoms in an element Molecules in a covalent compound You may see other terms like ions, formula units 1 mole = 6.022 x 1023 particles is the conversion factor that you use

Mole-Particle Conversions It doesn t matter what atom or compound is being converted For these conversions, you are always using 1 mole = 6.022 x 1023 particles as your conversion factor!!
Mole-Volume Conversions At a specific set of conditions (known as Standard Temperature and Pressure or STP), 1 mole of any gas = 22.4 L of volume We can convert volume to moles and vice versa

Multistep Conversions We know that the mole is equal to multiple numbers ( Avogadro s # = 1 mole = molar mass = 22.4 L) Given this fact, we can convert from particles to mass using the mole Hint: If you look at the problem and the word mole is absent, it is multistep!!
