A chemical formula of a compound indicates the number ratio of combining atoms. Chapter 3 Stoichiometry of Chemical Formulas And Equations Subscript: indicates the # of bonded H atoms Leading coefficients: indicates how total molecules (or moles). We can view covalent and ionic compounds at a atomic level and use special names to describe mass. The Molecular mass is the sum of the atomic masses (in amu) in a single molecule (COVALENT). 1S 2O SO2 SO2 NaCl + 2 x 16.00 amu 64.07 amu 23.00 amu 35.45 amu 58.45 amu Chemistry counts atoms, ions, molecules indirectly by comparing masses of the same number of things using ratio of masses built into the periodic table. Masses 12 red marbles 12 yellow marbles 12 purple marbles 12 green marbles + 2H2 + 4 amu + 1 O2 32 amu ? grams + ? grams 2H2O 36 amu ? grams How do we connect the atomic world to the big world? KEY RIFF: The periodic table tells us the mass of 1atom of any element in amu, AND it also tells us the mass of 1-mole (6.02 x 1023) of an element in grams! 12 red marble = 84 grams 12 yellow marble = 48 grams 84 g 48 g 40.g 20.g Chemistry needs to count #’s of reactants but how? 32.07 amu The Formula mass is the sum of atomic masses (in amu) in a single ionic formula unit (IONIC). 1Na 1Cl NaCl Chemical reactions require specific numbers of molecules or formula units to react. If we can’t see molecules to count them, then how do we do accomplish the counting task? 1 red must be 1.75 times heavier than 1 yellow marble (84g/ 48g =1.75) The scale has 1 mole (6.02 X 1023) of atoms Fe on one side and 1 mole of S atoms on the other. 32.07 g S 55.85 g Fe The mole links 6.02 x 1023 entities (atoms, molecules or formula units) to a mass in grams . Atomic Size 6.02 x 1023 atoms Fe 6.02 x 1023 atoms S 1 mol Fe atoms 1 mol S atoms MOLE There is Avogadro’s number of atoms on both sids of the balance, but they don’t weigh the same! The counting problem was solved by defining a counting number called the mole and determined its value by experiment. 1 mole = 6.02 x 1023 12C atoms The mole bridges the mass of 1 atom in amu to the mass of 1 mole (6.02 X 1023) of atoms in grams. 1 12C atom = 12.00 amu 1 mole 12C atoms = 12.00 g 12C Atomic scale Human-usable scale molecular mass of water molar mass of water Think of the mole as a counting unit for a collection of: 6.02 x 1023 things---unlike all other counting numbers it is also linked to masses given in the periodic table!!

The formula mass (or forumula weight) is the sum of the atomic masses (in amu) in a formula unit. 1S SO2 2O SO2 32.07 amu 1 Na 23.00 amu + 2 x 16.00 amu 64.07 amu 1 Cl 35.45 amu 58.45 amu The Molar mass of a compound is the same number as the molecular mass with units of grams per mole. NaCl The molar mass of an ionic compound is numerically equal to the formula mass, in units of grams/mole. Molar mass of NaCl 1 molecule SO2 = 64.07 amu 1 mole SO2 = 64.07 g SO2 = 58.45 g/mol 1 mole of NaCl(s) = 58.45 grams NaCl(s) 6.022!1023 NaCl units = 58.45 grams NaCl(s) Do You Understand Molecular and Molar Mass?

It’s the same in chemistry. We must “count” the number of each reactant (via moles) and see which is limiting--it’s not how much they weigh!

If 25.0 g CH4 is combusted with 40.0 g O2, which reactant is the limiting reactant? Note the absence of “excess” which tells us it is not a limiting reagent problem! There are 2 reactant masses in the problem = limiting reagent! There are two ways you can calculate the answer. Method 1: For both reactants, use balanced equation & stoichiometric factors and compute the amount of any product formed for both (I teach this method!)
