3. CW 1: The Mole

4. CW 1: The Mole How many trunks are found in one dozen elephants?
1 elephant = 1 trunks, 12 elephants = 12 trunks
How many legs are found in one dozen elephants?
1 elephant = 4 legs… So 12 elephants have 4 X 12 legs, 48 legs
How many carbon atoms are found in one dozen methane (CH4) molecules?
1 methane = 1 C, 12 methanes = 12 C atoms
How many hydrogen atoms are found in one dozen methane molecules?
1 methane = 4 H atoms … So 12 methanes have 12 × 4 hydrogens, 48 hydrogens

5. CW 1: The Mole How many trunks are found in one mole of elephants?
1 mole = 6.02x1023 elephants. Each have 1 trunk… 6.02x1023 trunks
How many legs are found in one mole of elephants?
1 elephant = 4 legs. 4 legs × (6.02X1023) = 24.08x1023 legs
How many carbon atoms are found in one mole of methane molecules?
1 methane = 1 C atom. 1 atom × (6.02x1023) = 6.02x1023 C atoms
How many hydrogen atoms are found in one mole of methane molecules?
1 methane = 4 H atoms. 4 atoms × (6.02x1023)= x1023 H atoms

6. CW 1: The Mole How is “a mole” similar to “a dozen”?
A dozen is always 12, like a mole is always 6.02x1023. 
A mole is equal to 6.02x1023 items, which is a very large number. Why would chemists want to use moles as the unit to count atoms in?
Atoms are very small, so we need a lot of them before they are measurable.
