1 THE MOLE... a unit of counting Quantities in Chemical Reactions

2 Big Ideas Relationships in chemical reactions can be described quantitatively The efficiency of chemical reactions can be determined and optimized by applying an understanding of quantitative relationships in such reactions.

3 How Scientists Keep Track of Atoms One way to measure how much of a substance is available is to count the # of particles in that sample However, atoms & molecules are extremely small To solve this problem, scientists developed the concept of the mole SYMBOL IS n. *The mole is a unit songThe mole is a unit

4 The Mole A dozen donuts = 12 A mole of donuts = 6.023x10 23 a dozen shoes = 12 A mole of shoes = 6.023x10 23 1 mole = 6.02 x 10 23 entities of a substance 1 mole of anything = 6.023x10 23 = 602,000,000,000,000,000,000,000!!!

5 WHAT IS THE MOLE? Avogadro’s Constant = N A = 6.023 x 10 23 particles 1 mol Units of moles are mol Different types of particles include: atoms OR molecules OR ions OR electrons OR formula units, etc. FYI…. A formula unit is a term used to represent the lowest whole number ratio of ions in an ionic compound. On your calculator: EE or EXP or x10^

6 WHERE DID THIS NUMBER COME FROM? A mole is the amount of substance that contains as many particles as exactly 12.000g of Carbon-12

7 The Mole- Examples 1 mole of carbon contains 6.02 x 10 23 atoms of carbon 1 mole of H 2 O contains 6.02 x 10 23 molecules of H 2 O 1 mole of NaCl contains 6.02 x 10 23 formula units of NaCl

8 How Big is Avogadro’s Number? ◦ 6.02 x 10 23 ÷ 1,000,000 = 6.02 x 10 17 d o 6.02 x 10 17 d ÷ 365 d/a = 1.65 x 10 15 a If you had one mole of dollars, how long would it take to spend it at a rate of $1,000,000 per day? Put this into perspective… o The sun is about 4.6 x 10 9 years old and will burn out in about 5 x 10 9 years. o You will need to spend faster!!

9 The mole is a BIG number. The green pea analogy puts it into perspective as well: Did you know that 12 pencils will contain a mole of carbon atoms?

11 Variables to Know n = number of moles N = number of particles N A = Avogadro’s number (6.02 × 10 23 ) Two possible types of questions: o Moles to Particles  N = n x N A o Particles to Moles  n = N / N A N NANA n

12 Using Avogadro’s Constant How many atoms in 2 moles of carbon? N = n x N A = 2 moles x (6.02 x 10 23 ) = 1.2 x 10 24 particles of C How many moles is 5.0 x 10 24 particles of iron? n= N / N A = 5.0 x 10 24 /6.02 x 10 23 = 8.3 moles of Fe How many atoms in 2 moles of water? N= n x N A = 2 moles x 6.02 x 10 23 = 1.2 x 10 24 molecules of H 2 O = 3 atoms per molecule = 3 x (1.2 x 10 24 ) = 3.6 x 10 24 atoms in 2 moles of H 2 O

13 LEARNING CHECK (round to 3 sig. figs.)  How many molecules of CO 2 are in 4.56 moles of CO 2 ?  How many moles of water is 5.87 x 10 22 molecules?  How many moles is 7.78 x 10 24 formula units of MgCl 2  How many atoms of carbon are in 1.23 mol of C 6 H 12 O 6 ? 2.75 x 10 24 molecules 0.0975 mol (or 9.75 x 10 -2 ) 4.44 x 10 24 atoms C 12.9 moles

14 Mass to Mole Calculations Atomic Mass ◦Mass of one atom ◦Unit μ = atomic mass unit = a.m.u  Eg. Each hydrogen atom has a mass of 1.001μ ◦1 μ equals approximately 1.67 x 10 -24 g, which is extremely small and not practical to measure. Enter Molar Mass….

15 Molar Mass (MM) The mass of 1 mole of a substance Mass of 6.023 x 10 23 particles Units are g/mol ◦Eg. The molar mass of Hydrogen is 1.01 g/mol

16 Molar Mass Molar mass and atomic mass have the same numbers except there is a unit difference. The g/mol unit is more useful that μ because… It can be measured in the lab using a scale Atomic MassMolar Mass Li6.94 μ/atom6.94 g/mol Ag107.86 μ/atom107.86 g/mol

17 Example Eg. Find the molar mass of water: H 2 O H: 2 x 1.001g/mol O: 1 x 16.00 g/mol 18.002g/mol Eg. Find the molar mass of calcium phosphate: Ca 3 (PO 4 ) 2 Ca: 3 x 40.08 g/mol P:2 x 30.97 g/mol O: 8 x 16.00 g/mol 310.2g/mol

18  The same as:  Gram Molecular Mass (for molecules)  Gram Formula Mass (ionic compounds)  Gram Atomic Mass (for elements)  molar mass is just a much broader term than these other specific masses

19 Mole Calculations MM m n MM = m/n n = m/MM m = MMn N = nN A n = N/N A
