Chapter 8 Molecular & Formula Masses
Atomic mass • The atomic mass is the average mass of an atom.
When using atomic masses make sure to round to at least one decimal place.
Determine the Molecular Mass of Vitamin A C20H30O 20 x 12.0 = 240.0 30 x 1.0 = 30.0 1 x 16.0 = 16.0 = 286.0 amu
Formula Mass • The formula mass is the mass of an ionic compound. • An ionic compound is formed from a combination of metals and nonmetals. • Formulas masses are calculated the same as molecular masses.
Determine the Formula Mass of Calcium Phosphate Ca3(PO4)2 3 x 40.1 = 120.3 2 x 31.0 = 62.0 8 x 16.0 = 128.0 = 310.3 amu
The Mole • A counting unit • Similar to a dozen, except instead of 12, it’s 602 billion trillion 602,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 • 6.02 X 1023 (in scientific notation) • This number is named in honor of Amedeo Avogadro (1776 – 1856), and is called Avogadro’s Number.
The Mole (mol) • 1 mole of cookies = 6.02 X 1023 cookies • 1 mole of cars = 6.02 X 1023 cars • 1 mole of Al atoms = 6.02 X 1023 atoms
