Is a Metric Unit Used for Measuring the ______Of a Substance;

The Mole

·  Is a metric unit used for measuring the ______of a substance;

·  It is a counting unit like the word “______” or “______.”

·  It counts particles

·  Its equal to ______particles which is called ______‘s number

Representative Particles

Elements & Compounds are the 2 substances that make up matter. These substances can be broken down into REPRESENTATIVE PARTICLES.

ü  The basic particle of an ELEMENT is an ______.

ü  The basic particle of an IONIC COMPOUND is a ______.

ü  The basic particle of a COVALENT COMPOUND is a ______.

How to convert between MOLES & PARTICLES using dimensional analysis

1.  Determine the known and the unknown.

2.  Find a conversion factor that will cancel old units out and leave new units

3.  Do the math.

Example 1: Convert 3.25 moles AgNO3 to formula units

Example 2: Convert 4.50 x 1024 atoms Zn to moles

Molar Mass

·  Is defined as the mass of a mole of particles

·  1 dozen limes and 1 dozen dimes have different masses but the same amount!

·  1 mol carbon and 1 mol magnesium have different masses but the same amount!

·  The molar mass of an ______is equal to the ______of the element.

Average atomic mass of element = Molar Mass of element

(amu) (g/mol)

1 atom of CARBON 1 mole of CARBON

= 24.31 amu = 24.31 g/mol

To Calculate the molar mass of a compound

ü  Add up the mass of all the elements within the compound

Examples: Calculate the molar mass of:

Cu

How to convert between MOLES & MASS using dimensional analysis

ü  Same process as converting between moles and particles but you use a molar mass conversion factor

Example 3: Convert 525 g Ca to moles

Example 4: Convert 2.50 moles (C3H5)2S to grams

How to convert between MASS & PARTICLES using dimensional analysis

ü  This is a multistep problem

ü  Always convert to moles of the substance first , then to the desired unit.

Example 5: Convert 35.6 g AlCl3 to formula units

Example 6: Convert 49 molecules of C6H12O6 to grams

Example 7: Convert 35.6 g AlCl3 to chloride ions
