5.01: Mole Concepts and Molar Mass
- Learning Objectives:
- Express and manipulate chemical quantities using scientific conventions and mathematical procedures, including dimensional analysis, scientific notation, and significant figures.
- Analyze, evaluate, and critique scientific explanations.
- Classify matter as pure substances or mixtures through investigation of their properties.
- Define and use the concept of the mole.
- Calculate the number of atoms or molecules in a sample of material using Avogadro’s number.
- The Mole:
- The mole (mol) is the SI unit for measuring the amount of a substance.
- It is a counting unit, similar to a "dozen," but for much larger quantities.
- 1 mole = representative particles (atoms, molecules, etc.). This is Avogadro's number.
- This number is exactly the number of atoms in 12 g of carbon-12.
- Representative Particles:
- Element: Atoms or molecules (e.g., Ne, F2).
- Covalent Compound: Molecules (e.g., H2O).
- Ionic Compound: Formula units (e.g., NaCl).
- Ion: Charged atoms (e.g., , Cl^{-}$).
- Ions vs. Atoms:
- Atoms have an equal number of protons and electrons, resulting in no electrical charge.
- Ions are atoms that have gained or lost electrons, resulting in a charge.
- Positive charge: Lost electrons (e.g., Al^{+3}Cl^{-}9.1 × 10^{-31}1.7 × 10^{-27}6.022 × 10^{23}6.022 × 10^{23}6.022 × 10^{23} pennies would make stacks reaching the moon.
- Counting units like “ream” (500 sheets) and “mole” facilitate easier counting by grouping items into larger, discrete parts.
- Example:
- 2 molecules of C6H{12}O_6C6H{12}O_6Fe2O3Fe^{3+}O^{2-}6.022 × 10^{23}6.022 × 10^{23}6.022 × 10^{23}N_A^{12}C6.022 × 10^{23}4.75 \text{ mol } SO2 × \frac{6.022 ×10^{23} \text{ molecules } SO2}{1 \text{ mol } SO2} = 2.86 × 10^{24} \text{ molecules of } SO2\frac{4.75 \text{ moles of } SO2}{x} = \frac{1 \text{ mole of } SO2}{6.022 × 10^{23} \text{ molecules of } SO_2}x = 2.86 × 10^{24} \text{ molecules } SO_22.6 \text{ mol Cu } × \frac{6.022 ×10^{23} \text{ atoms } Cu}{1 \text{ mol } Cu} = 1.6 × 10^{24} \text{ atoms of Cu}\frac{2.6 \text{ mol Cu}}{x \text{ atoms Cu}} = \frac{1 \text{ mol of Cu}}{6.022 × 10^{23} \text{ atoms of Cu}}x = 1.6 × 10^{24} \text{ atoms } Cu1.45 × 10^{23}Fe2(SO4)_31.45 × 10^{23} \text{ formula units of } Fe2(SO4)3 × \frac{3 \text{ S atoms}}{1 \text{ formula unit } Fe2(SO4)3} = 4.35 × 10^{23} \text{ S atoms}\frac{1.45 × 10^{23} \text{ formula units of } Fe2(SO4)3}{x \text{ atoms of S}} = \frac{1 \text{ formula unit of } Fe2(SO4)3}{3 \text{ atoms of S}}x = 4.35 × 10^{23} \text{ atoms } SCuCl_2CuCl_250.0 \text{ g } CuCl2 × \frac{1 \text{ mol } CuCl2}{134.446 \text{ g } CuCl2} = 0.372 \text{ mol } CuCl2\frac{50.0 \text{ g } CuCl2}{x} = \frac{134.446 \text{ g } CuCl2}{1 \text{ mol } CuCl_2}x = 0.372 \text{ mol } CuCl_2C6H{12}O_6C6H{12}O_6100.0 \text{ g } C6H{12}O6 × \frac{1 \text{ mol } C6H{12}O6}{180.156 \text{ g } C6H{12}O6} × \frac{6.022 × 10^{23} \text{ molecules } C6H{12}O6}{1 \text{ mol } C6H{12}O6} × \frac{12 \text{ H atoms}}{1 \text{ molecule } C6H{12}O6} = 4.011 × 10^{24} \text{ H atoms} \text{% composition of element} = \frac{\text{mass of element in one mole of compound}}{\text{molar mass of compound}} × 100\% K_2O\text{% comp of K in } K_2O = \frac{(2 \text{ mol } × 39.098 \frac{g}{mol})}{((2 \text{ mol } × 39.098 \frac{g}{mol}) + (1 \text{ mol } × 15.999 \frac{g}{mol}))} × 100\% = 83.015\%C6H{12}O_6CH_2OC2H4O2CH2OCH2OCH2OC6H{12}O6CH2O\frac{6.994 \text{ g Fe}}{55.845 \text{ g/mol Fe}} = 0.12523 \text{ mol Fe}\frac{3.006 \text{ g O}}{15.999 \text{ g/mol O}} = 0.18788 \text{ mol O}C_2HCln = \frac{181.50 \text{ g/mol}}{60.48 \text{ g/mol}} = 3C{2×3}H{1×3}Cl{1×3} = C6H3Cl3
5.04: Hydrate Calculations
- Learning Objectives:
- Communicate and apply scientific information extracted from various sources.
- Express and manipulate chemical quantities using scientific conventions and mathematical procedures, including dimensional analysis, scientific notation, and significant figures.
- Define and use the concept of the mole.
- Calculate the number of atoms or molecules in a sample of material using Avogadro's number.
- Calculate the percent composition of compounds.
- Differentiate between empirical and molecular formulas.
- Properties of Hydrates:
- Hydrates are ionic compounds with water molecules trapped within their crystal lattice structure.
- Anhydrous ionic compounds do not contain water.
- Water can be removed from a hydrate by heating.
- The mass of water is determined by subtracting the mass of the anhydrous crystal from the mass of the hydrate.
- Determining the Formula & Molar/Formula Weight of a Hydrate
- The formula for the hydrate indicates the number of molecules of water in the structure
- In one formula unit of CuSO4 \cdot 5H2OCuSO4H2OCuSO4H2OCuSO4 \cdot 5H2OCuSO_45H_2OCuSO4 \cdot 5H2O = 159.60 + 90.075 = 249.68 g/mol
- Determining a Hydrate Formula Using Experimental Data:
- Measure the mass of the hydrate sample both before & after heating.
- Calculate how many grams of water are present in the sample by subtracting the mass after heating from the mass before heating.
- Divide the number of moles of water by the number of moles of the anhydrous compound to calculate the moles of hydrations.
- The chemical formula is written as the chemical formula of the anhydrous compound, then a raised dot, then the number of water hydrations.
- Example: A 15.67 g sample of magnesium carbonate hydrate was heated with mass reduced to 7.58 g. What is the formula and name of the hydrate?
- Mass of H_2OH_2O\frac{8.09 \text{ g}}{18.015 \text{ g/mol}} = 0.44907 \text{ mol}MgCO_3\frac{7.58 \text{ g}}{84.313 \text{ g/mol}} = 0.089903 \text{ mol}H2OMgCO3 = \frac{0.44907}{0.089903} \approx 5MgCO3 \cdot 5H2O\text{mass % of water} = (\frac{\text{mass of water}}{\text{mass of original sample}}) × 100\text{mass % of water} = (\frac{8.09 \text{ g } H2O}{15.67 \text{ g } MgCO3 \cdot 5 H_2O}) × 100 = 51.6\% \text{Percent Yield} = \frac{\text{actual yield}}{\text{theoretical yield}} * 100$$
- Most common to have percent yields below 100%, but it can be above 100% as well
Example: A chemical company is mass producing ammonia (NH3). The chemists ran the reaction using 64.3 moles of hydrogen gas in the presence of excess nitrogen, with 130 g of ammonia being created. Calculate the percent yield of ammonia using the balanced equation 𝑁2 (𝑔) + 3 𝐻2 (𝑔) → 2 𝑁𝐻3 (𝑔)
Dimensional analysis:
- 3 mol H2 * 2 mol NH3 / 3 mol H2 * 17.031 g NH3 / 1 mol NH3 = 730. g NH3
Proportion method:
- 3 mol 𝐻2 / 3 mol 𝐻2 = x / (2 mol 𝑁𝐻3) (17.031 g/mol 𝑁𝐻3)
- x = 730. g 𝑁𝐻3
Percent Yield:
- % 𝑌𝑖𝑒𝑙𝑑 = 130. g 𝑁𝐻3 / 730. g 𝑁𝐻3 = 0.1780 * 100 = 17.8%
