Mole Concept

The document provides information about moles and molar mass. It defines a mole as the amount of substance that contains as many particles as there are atoms in 12 grams of carbon-12. This number of particles is known as Avogadro's number and is approximately 6.022 x 1023 particles. Molar mass is the mass in grams of one mole of an element or compound. It is calculated by adding up the atomic masses of each element in the chemical formula. The document provides examples of calculating molar mass for compounds and using moles and molar mass to solve problems involving grams of a substance.

MOLE
CONCEPT
Prepared by:
Ms. Sunshine B. San Diego
Chemistry is a quantitative science - we need a "counting unit."
The MOLE
1 mole is the amount of substance that contains as many particles (atoms or molecules) as there are in
12.0 g of C-12.
PARTICLES OF A MOLE
Amadeo
Avogadro Amedeo Avogadro (1766-1856)
never knew his own number;
(1776 – 1856) it was named in his honor by a
French scientist in 1909.
its value was first estimated
by Josef Loschmidt, an Austrian
chemistry teacher, in 1895 .
?
quadrillions thousands
trillions billions millions

1 mole = 602213673600000000000000
or 6.022 x 1023

There is Avogadro's number of particles in a mole of any substance.


MOLE
• A MOLE of any substance contains as many
elementary units (atoms and molecules) as the
number of atoms in 12 g of the isotope of
carbon-12.
• This number is called AVOGADRO’s number NA
= 6.02 x 1023 particles/mol
• The mass of one mole of a substance is called
MOLAR MASS symbolized by MM
• Units of mole are g/mol
Collection Terms
A collection term states a specific number
of items.
•1 dozen donuts = 12 donuts
•1 ream of paper = 500 sheets
•1 case = 24 cans
Molar Mass
The molar mass or gram
formula mass

• is the mass in grams,


of one mole of an
element or compound.
• is the atomic mass
expressed in grams.

Molar Mass from Periodic Table

Molar mass is the


atomic mass
expressed in
grams.

1 mole Ag 1 mole C 1 mole S


= 107.9 g = 12.01 g = 32.07 g

Learning Check

Give the molar mass for each (to the tenths decimal place).

A. 1 mole K atoms = ________

B. 1 mol Sn atoms = ________

8
Solution

Give the molar mass for each (to the tenths decimal place).

A. 1 mole K atoms = 39.1 g

B. 1 mole Sn atoms = 118.7 g

Molar Mass of a Compound
The molar mass of a compound is the sum of the molar masses of
the elements in the formula.

Example: Calculate the molar mass of CaCl2.


Element Number of Atomic Mass Total Mass
Moles
Ca 1 40.1 g/mole 40.1 g
Cl 2 35.5 g/mole 71.0 g
CaCl2 111.1 g

Molar Mass of K3PO4
Calculate the molar mass of K3PO4.

Element Number of Atomic Mass Total Mass in


Moles K3PO4
K 3 39.1 g/mole 117.3 g
P 1 31.0 g/mole 31.0 g
O 4 16.0 g/mole 64.0 g
K3PO4 212.3 g

SAMPLE PROBLEM

Allyl sulfide C6H10S


is a compound that
has the odor of
garlic. How many
moles of C6H10S are
in 225 g?
13
Solution

Calculate the molar mass of C6H10S.


(6 x 12.0) + (10 x 1.01) + (1 x 32.1) = 114.2 g/mole

Set up the calculation using a mole factor.


225 g C6H10S x 1 mole C6H10S
114.2 g C6H10S

= 1.97 mole C6H10S
