Chemistry- Moles Flashcards
(29 cards)
mole
SI unit of quantity, also know as Avogrado’s number (number of atoms in 12.01 grams of carbon)
atomic mass
weighted average of the masses of all the isotopes in amu
gram atomic mas (GAM)
atomic mass in grams unit
formula mass
mass of the one formula unit of a compound in amu
gram formula mass (GFM)
formula mass in grams unit
molecular mass
mass of one molecule in amu
gram molecular mass (GMM)
molecular mass in grams unit
molar mass
- atomic mass expressed in grams (g/mol)
- molar mass of a substance is the sum of the molar masses of each element
mole and molecule
1 mole of a substance is 6.02 x 10^23 molecules of that substance
mole and mass of a substance
1 mole of a substance that has a mass in grams numerically equal to its formula/molecular mass
mole and volume of gas at STP
1 mole of any gas occupies the volume of 22.4 L at STP
mole and liquids
must know density
percent composition
(mass contributed by the element / molar mass of compound) * 100
hydrates
- compounds containing water molecules combines in a definite ratio as part of the crystal structure
- (mass of water / molar mass of compound) * 100
empirical formula
- provides the ratio of atoms of each element in a compound in lowest terms
- CH2O
molecular formula
- provides the actual # of atoms of each element in a compound
- C6H12O6 (glucose)
structural formula
represents how the individual atoms are arranged in relation to one another
find empirical formula
- find mole of each element
- divide each mole by the smallest #
- multiply if needed (subscripts have to be whole numbers)
find molecular formula from empirical formula
- need molar mass
- (molar mass / empirical formula mass) = coefficient
- (coefficient)(empirical formula) = molecular formula
stoichiometry
the study of the quantitative aspects of chemical reactions
Mole to Mole Conversion
- coefficients represent ratio of moles
- as the number of moles of one substance changes, the moles of all the other substances will change proportionally
- MUST BALANCE EQUATION FIRST
Mass to Mass Conversion
mass given –> moles given –> moles required –> mass required
Mass to Volume Conversion
mass given –> moles given –> moles required –> volume required
Volume to Volume Conversion
volume given –> moles given –> moles required –> volume required
