    Study Notes

    Amounts in Chemistry

    • One mole of any substance has a mass equivalent to its relative atomic mass in grams.
    • Example: 1 mole of magnesium (Mg) weighs 24g and contains approximately 6.02 x 10²³ atoms.
    • 12g of magnesium corresponds to 0.5 moles, containing 3.01 x 10²³ magnesium atoms.

    Avogadro's Constant

    • Avogadro's constant (Na) is 6.02 x 10²³ mol⁻¹, indicating the number of particles in one mole.
    • This constant applies to all types of particles: atoms, molecules, ions, protons, neutrons, or electrons.

    Quick Calculations with Moles

    • For various amounts of moles:
      • 1 mol contains 6.02 x 10²³ atoms.
      • 2 mol contains 1.204 x 10²⁴ atoms.
      • 10 mol contains 6.02 x 10²⁴ atoms.
      • 0.1 mol contains 6.02 x 10²² atoms.

    Counting Atoms and Ions in Compounds

    • Calculating hydrogen atoms in compounds:
      • In 2 mol of H₂O, there are 2.408 x 10²⁴ hydrogen atoms.
    • Sample calculations include:
      • 0.5 mol H₂O results in 6.02 x 10²³ hydrogen atoms.
      • 0.2 mol NH₄Cl results in 4.816 x 10²³ hydrogen atoms.
      • 1 mol Al(HCO₃)₃ results in 1.806 x 10²⁴ hydrogen atoms.

    Relative Atomic Mass and Formula Mass

    • Relative atomic mass is unitless and calculated without specific units.
    • Finding the mass of an element in compounds, e.g., 30g of Al₂O₃ contains 14.1g oxygen.

    Molar Mass

    • Molar mass defines how much one mole of a substance weighs.
    • Example: 0.500 mol of H₂O at 4°C occupies a volume of 9.01 cm³ and has a density of 1.00 g/cm³.

    Empirical Formulas

    • The empirical formula represents the simplest whole-number ratio of elements in a compound.
    • Derived by calculating the moles of each element, dividing by the smallest number of moles, and obtaining whole numbers.
    • Example: A compound with 2.199g Cu and 0.277g O has an empirical formula of Cu₂O.

    Finding Molecular Formulas

    • The molecular formula is a whole-number multiple of the empirical formula.
    • To determine it, calculate the formula mass, divide the given mass by this value, and adjust the empirical formula accordingly.
    • Example: For a compound with a molar mass of 60.0g and an empirical formula of CH₄N, the molecular formula calculates to C₂H₈N₂.

    Molar Concentrations (Molarity)

    • Molarity (M) is the concentration of a solution and calculated as moles of solute per liter of solution (mol/dm³).
    • Example: A 0.15 molar solution of H₂SO₄ provides 0.30 mol/dm³ of hydrogen ions upon dissociation.
    • Mass required for a specific molarity can be calculated using: moles x relative formula mass.

    Practical Calculations

    • Calculate mass or volume needed for a specific molar concentration.
    • Example: To prepare 0.1 mol/dm³ of sulfuric acid, calculate needed mass based on volume and molarity requirements.

    Tips for Empirical/Molecular Formula Calculations

    • Start with percent compositions and convert to grams to find moles.
    • Always check that subscripts in formulas are whole numbers.
    • Use sample weights to make calculations simpler when handling percentages.
