Moving from Molecules to Mass
A balanced chemical equation is the scientists guide to
the preparation or formation of product compounds.
Atomic Mass
The atomic mass of any element on the periodic table is
expressed in atomic mass units (amu)
This value is listed on the periodic table and represents
the mass of a single atom of an element.
This relationship can be used to write conversion factors
For example, the atomic mass of iron is 55.85 amu, so:

Formula Mass
The formula mass of a compound is the sum of the
atomic masses of all the atoms in its formula.
To determine the formula mass, you multiply each
elements atomic mass by its formula subscript and then
add them all up.
Chapter 3 5
Avogadros Number
How do we keep track of atoms or molecules?
They are very small, so we group them in a large bunch
We use Avogadros Number (NA) to represent this bunch of
atoms or molecules.
Avogadros Number was experimentally determined to be the number
of atoms in 12.01 grams of carbon.
Its numerical value is 6.022 1023.
Therefore, a 12.01 g sample of carbon contains 6.022 1023 carbon
atoms.

The Mole
The mole (mol and abbreviated n) is a unit of measure
that allows us to make comparisons between
substances that have different masses
A mole is Avogadros number of atoms, that is 6.022
1023 atoms.
Molar Mass
The atomic mass of any
substance expressed in
grams per mole (g/mol)
is the molar mass (MM)
of that substance.

Calculating Molar Mass
The molar mass of a substance is the sum of the
molar masses of each element present in the
substance.

Mole Calculations Grams to Atoms
Now we will use the molar mass of a compound to
convert between grams of a substance and particles of a
substance.
6.022 1023 particles = 1 mol = molar mass
If we want to convert particles to mass, we must first
convert particles to moles and then we can convert
moles to mass.

Stoichiometry:
Mole - Mole Relationships
We can use a balanced chemical equation to write mole
ratios which can be used as unit factors:
N2(g) + O2(g) 2 NO(g)
Since 1 mol of N2 reacts with 1 mol of O2 to produce 2
mol of NO, we can write the following mole
relationships:
1 mol N2 1 mol N2 1 mol O2
1 mol O2 2 mol NO 2 mol NO
1 mol O2 2 mol NO 2 mol NO

Stoichiometry Problems
In a mass-mass stoichiometry problem, we will convert a given mass of a
reactant or product to an unknown mass of reactant or product.
There are four steps:
Step 1: Check that the equation is balanced!!
Step 2: Convert the given mass to moles using the molar mass as a
conversion factor.
Step 3: Convert the moles of given to moles of the unknown using the
coefficients in the balanced equation as a conversion factor.
Step 4: Convert the moles of unknown to grams using the molar mass as a
conversion factor.

Percent Yield: Efficiency of Reaction
When you perform a laboratory experiment, the
amount of product collected is the actual yield.
The amount of product calculated from the
reaction is the theoretical yield.
The percent yield is a measure of the efficiency of
the lab reaction by comparing the amount of the
actual yield to the theoretical yield.

100 % = percent yield

slice of cheese and 2 slices of bread to make one sandwich.

how many sandwiches can you make?

Limiting Reactants: Table Method
One way to keep your limiting reactant problems organized is to use a table.
You do the exact same calculations as shown before but you organize your
answers in the table as shown below.
This helps to see the limiting reactant and how much product is made.

react:

Solution Concentration
The molar concentration, or molarity (M), is the
number of moles of solute per liter of solution, is
expressed as moles/liter.

Calculating Molarity
What is the molarity of a solution containing
27.5 g of KOH in 0.100 L of solution?
Step 1: We have 27.5 g of KOH so we need to convert to
moles of KOH.
Step 2: We want molarity of the solution (mol/L), so check
your units.
Step 3: Divide the moles of KOH by the volume of solution
(0.100 L).

Dilution of a Solution
Dilution is the process of reducing a solutions
concentration by adding more solvent.
Rather than prepare a dilute solution by dissolving
a solid in water, we can prepare a solution by
diluting a more concentrated solution.
When performing a dilution, the amount of solute
does not change, only the amount of solvent.
Chapter 3 27
Dilution Problem
What volume of 18.0 M H2SO4 is required to prepare
250.0 mL of 0.500 M aqueous H2SO4?
Step 1: Determine your unknown (VC)
Step 2: Identify MC, MD and VD
Step 3: Plug these values into the dilution equation and solve for VC
MC VC = MD VD
(18.0 M) VC = (0.500 M) (250.0 mL)

Solution Stoichiometry
A solution stoichiometry problem uses molarity as a conversion
factor between volume and moles of a substance in solution.
There are three steps:
Step 1: Convert the given volume of solution to moles using the molarity
(mol/L) as a unit factor.
Step 2: Convert the moles of given to moles of the unknown using the
coefficients in the balanced equation.
Step 3: Convert the moles of unknown to molarity by dividing by the
volume of the solution.

Acid-Base Titrations
A titration is used to analyze an acid solution
using a solution of a base.
A measured volume of base is added to the acid
solution.
When all of the acid has been neutralized, the pH is 7.
One extra drop of base solution after the endpoint
increases the pH dramatically.

Empirical Formulas
The empirical formula of a compound is the simplest
whole number ratio of elements in a formula unit
The molecular formula of a compound is some
multiple of the empirical formula
However, the molecular formula and empirical formula can
be the same for a compound too!

Determining Empirical Formula:
Component Mass
Combustion analysis is one of the most
common methods for determining
empirical formulas.
A weighed compound is burned in
oxygen and its products analyzed by a
gas chromatogram.
It is particularly useful for analysis of
hydrocarbons (Combustion Reactions).

Molecular Formulas
The empirical formula for benzene is CH. This
represents the ratio of C to H atoms in a benzene
molecule.
The actual molecular formula is some multiple (f) of
the empirical formula, (CH)f.
To determine f, we divide the mass of the molecular
formula by the mass of the empirical formula:

Finding Molecular Formulas
There are 4 steps to determining the molecular formula
of a compound:
Step 1: Determine the empirical formula of the compound.
May need to calculate yourself or may be given in the problem
Step 2: Calculate the mass of the empirical formula.
Step 3: Divide the mass of the molecular formula (usually
given in the problem!) by the mass of the empirical formula
to determine the multiplier factor (f).
Step 4: Multiply all the subscripts in the empirical formula
by the factor f to get the molecular formula.
