Activity 151-8 Mole Conversions Directions: This Guided Learning Activity (GLA) focuses on completing conversions between the mass, the moles and the particle number for a given chemical. Part A introduces the mole, Part B discusses basic mole conversions, and Part C discusses multistep mole conversions. These conversions are important for converting between the molecular world and every day quantities. This material is especially important for solving stoichiometry problems. The worksheet is accompanied by instructional videos. See http://www.canyons.edu/Departments/CHEM/GLA/ for additional materials. Part A β The Mole Avogadroβs number serves as a conversion factor to relate the molecular world to the macro world. ππ ππππππππ = ππ. ππππππ ππ ππππππππ ππππππππππππππππππ Avogadroβs number is defined so that the mass in grams of 1 mole of a substance is equal to the mass in atomic mass units of one formula unit of the substance. Therefore, both the formula mass (the mass of one particle) and the molar mass (the mass of one mole of particles) can be found by adding the numerical mass of each elemental component that is given on the periodic table. What is the atomic mass of an element? ________________________________________________ What unit is used to measure atomic mass? _____________________________________________ What is a formula unit? _____________________________________________________________ How are molar mass and formula mass different? ________________________________________ Example #1a. What is the formula mass of each of the following elements or compounds? Magnesium (Mg) __________________ Iron (III) ion (Fe3+) __________________ Water (H2O) __________________ Acetic acid (HC2H3O2) __________________ Example #1b. What is the molar mass for each substance in part a?
