1 Quantitative Composition of Compounds Preparation for College Chemistry Luis Avila Columbia University Department of Chemistry

2 Depending upon Bonding type Compounds Ionic (Coulombic forces) Molecular (Covalent bonds) Molecules Cations Anions

3 Careful experimentation lead Proust to demonstrate H 2(g) + Cl 2(g) 2HCl (g) H 2 SO 4(l) + 2NaCl (s) 2HCl (g) + Na 2 SO 4(aq) Proportions by mass of elements in a compound VARY OVER A CERTAIN RANGE Proportions by mass of elements in a compound ARE FIXED. VARIATIONS ARE DUE TO IMPURITIES. Claude Berthollet: Joseph Proust: THE LAW OF DEFINITE PROPORTIONS (CONSTANT COMPOSITION): “The proportions by mass of the elements in a compound ARE FIXED, and do not depend on its mode of preparation.”

4 Wüstite, an iron oxide whose simplest formula is FeO, with 77.73%Fe. All gaseous compounds OBEY THE LAW OF DEFINITE PROPORTIONS. Certain SOLIDS are exceptions of the Law of Constant Composition: NON STOICHIOMETRIC COMPOUNDS (BERTHOLLIDES) Its composition truly ranges from Fe 0.95 O (76.8% Fe) to Fe 0.85 O (74.8% Fe) depending of the method of preparation.

5 The composition of a compound is shown by its CHEMICAL FORMULA. C + O 2 A B CHEMICAL ANALYSIS: If A is CO then B = CO 2 For a FIXED mass of C the ratio of O in A and B is: If A is CO 2 then B is C 2 O 4 Let’s take the elements C and O: (1.000 g C and 1.333 g O) (1.000 g C and 2.667 g O) 1.333 : 2.667 or 1: 2 We are unable to say which one is the right formula, but we know the ratio C : O is the QUOTIENT OF INTEGERS.

6 Molecules Types of Formulas Composition

7 Usually made up of nonmetal atoms Held together by covalent bonds

8 Types of Formulas Empirical Molecular Structural CH 3 C2H6C2H6

9 Atomic and Formula Masses Meaning of Atomic Masses Masses of Individual Atoms Formula Mass

10 Masses of Individual Atoms The atomic masses of H, Cl, and Ni are H = 1.008 amu Cl = 35.45 amu Ni = 58.69 amu Therefore 1.008g H, 35.45g Cl, and 58.69g Ni all have the same number of atoms: N A N A = Avogadro’s number = 6.022 x 10 23

11 Meaning of Atomic Masses Give relative masses of atoms based on C–12 scale The Most common isotope of carbon is assigned an atomic mass of 12 amu. The amu is defined as 1/12 of the mass of one neutral carbon atom

12 Mass of H atom: 1 H atom x= 1.674 x 10 –24 g Number of atoms in one gram of nickel: 1.00g Ni x= 1.026 x 10 22 atoms Masses of Individual Atoms 1.008g H 6.022 x 10 23 atoms 6.022 x 10 23 atoms Ni 58.69g Ni

13 Formula Mass The formula for water is H 2 O. What is its molar mass? 2H = 2(1.008g/mol) = 2.016 g/mol 1O = 1(16.00 g/mol) = 16.00 g/mol 18.02 g/mol = molar mass of water

14 The Mole Meaning Molar Mass Mole - Mass Conversions

15 Meaning 1 mol = 6.022 x 10 23 items Cl 2 HCl H Cl 6.022 x 10 23 molecules 6.022 x 10 23 atoms 70.90 g Cl 2 36.46g HCl 1.008g H35.45g Cl 1 mol Cl 2 1 mol HCl1 at-gr H1 at-gr Cl 1 molar mass Cl 2 1 molar mass HCl1 molar mass H 1 molar mass Cl

16 Molar Mass Generalizing from the previous examples, the molar mass, M, is numerically equal to the formula mass

17 Mole-Mass Conversions 110.98g CaCl 2 1 mol CaCl 2 mass = 13.2 mol CaCl 2 x = 1.47 x 10 3 g Calculate mass in grams of 13.2 mol CaCl 2 Calculate number of moles in 16.4g C 6 H 12 O 6 1 mol C 6 H 12 O 6 180.18g C 6 H 12 O 6 moles = 16.4g C 6 H 12 O 6 x = 9.10 x 10 -2 mol
