Study Notes

Atoms, Molecules, and Stoichiometry

Relative atomic mass (Ar): The average mass of one atom compared to one twelfth of the mass of a carbon-12 atom.
Relative isotopic mass: The mass of one isotope compared to one twelfth of the mass of a carbon-12 atom.
Relative molecular mass (Mr): The weighted average mass of a molecule compared to one twelfth of the mass of a carbon-12 atom.
Relative formula mass (Mr): The weighted average masses of the formula units compared to one twelfth of the mass of a carbon-12 atom.
The mole: The amount of substance in grams that contains the same number of particles as there are atoms in 12 grams of carbon-12. This number is Avogadro's number (6.022 x 10²³).
Moles, mass, and Mr: Moles = mass / Mr where mass is measured in grams.

Relative Atomic Mass

Determination: The relative atomic mass is a weighted average of all the isotopes of an element. The weighted average is calculated using the equation:
Relative atomic mass = Σ (Isotopic mass × Relative abundance)/100
Mass Spectrometer: Mass spectrometers are used to determine the relative atomic mass. They measure the mass-to-charge ratio (m/z) of ions. The relative abundance can be determined by comparing the height of the peaks.
Example: Magnesium has three isotopes: 24Mg, 25Mg, and 26Mg with relative abundances 78.70%, 10.13%, and 11.17% and isotopic masses 23.985, 24.986, and 25.982 respectively. The relative atomic mass of magnesium is calculated as: ((78.7024)+(10.1325)+(11.17*26))/100 ≈ 24.3

Empirical Formulae

Definition: The empirical formula gives the simplest whole-number ratio of atoms present in a compound.
General Method:
1. Divide each element's mass or percent mass by its atomic mass.
2. Divide each of the values calculated in step one by the smallest one of those values.
3. Sometimes, the results from step 2 must be multiplied by an integer to get whole numbers. These numbers form the empirical formula.
Example: A compound contains 1.82 g of potassium (K), 5.93 g of iodine (I), and 2.24 g of oxygen (O). Potassium (K): 1.82 / 39.1 = 0.0466 Iodine (I): 5.93 / 126.9 = 0.0468 Oxygen (O): 2.24 / 16 = 0.14 Divide by smallest: 0.0466; 0.0468 / 0.0466 = 1.00; 0.14 / 0.0466 = 3 Empirical formula = KIO₃

Molecular Formula

Definition: The molecular formula shows the actual number of atoms of each element in a molecule of a compound.
From empirical formula: The molecular formula can be determined by using the empirical formula and the relative molecular mass (Mr) of the compound.

Combustion Analysis

Method: A known mass of a compound containing C, H, and O is completely burned in excess oxygen. This yields carbon dioxide and water. The masses of CO₂ and H₂O produced are measured.
Calculate moles of CO₂ and H₂O, then moles of C, H, and O
Molar ratio: The molar ratios of C, H, and O in the compound are determined by dividing the number of moles of each element by the smallest number of moles.
Empirical formula: The empirical formula is obtained using the molar ratios.

Molar Volume

Definition: One mole of any gas at room temperature and pressure (RTP; 25°C and 1 atm) occupies a volume of 24 dm³.
Example: Calculate the volume of 50.0 g of carbon dioxide gas at room temperature and pressure.

Concentration of Solutions

Molar Concentration: Moles of solute per volume of solution, where the volume is measured in decimetres cubed (dm³).

Density

Definition: Density is the mass of a substance per unit volume.

Titrations

Purpose: Titration is used to determine the concentration of an unknown solution by reacting it with a solution of known concentration.
Procedure: A measured volume of one known solution is added to a measured volume of a second solution to determine the equivalence point, given by the change in color of a chemical substance (indicator) with a reaction.
Calculations: Results need to be analyzed using balanced chemical equations.

Limiting and Excess Reactants

Definition: The limiting reactant is the reactant that is completely consumed in a chemical reaction, limiting the amount of product that can be formed. The excess reactant is the reactant that is not completely consumed.
Calculations: When calculating an expected yield, you must identify if there is a reactant limiting the quantity of product that can be made. Use the mass and molar ratio of the reactants to find the limiting reactant.
