Chapter 7 Chemical Quantities
The Mole SI base unit to measure the amount of a substance 1 mole of anything = x representative particles
2. How many molecules are in 2.12 mole of propane(C 3 H 8 )? 3. How many moles are there in 3.01 x forumla units of NaOH?
Ex. molecular formula of H 2 O H = 2(1.01) = 2.02 O = 1(16.0) = g Gram formula mass – mass of one mole of an ionic compound formula mass of CaCl 2
