Stoichiometry and the Mole

Chapter 8

Stoichiometry-What is it?

• The study of the numerical relationship between chemical quantities in a chemical reaction is called reaction stoichiometry

• The amount of every substance used and made in a chemical reaction is related to the amounts of all the other substances in the reaction

– Law of Conservation of Mass– balancing equations by balancing atoms

Stoichiometry-What is it?• the number of pancakes you can make depends

on the amount of the ingredients you use

• this relationship can be expressed mathematically1 cu flour 2 eggs ½ tsp baking powder 5 pancakes

1 cup Flour + 2 Eggs + ½ tsp Baking Powder 5 Pancakes

Stoichiometry-What is it?• if you want to make more or less than 5 pancakes

you can use the number of eggs you have to determine the number of pancakes you can make

– assuming you have enough flour and baking powder

pancakes 20 eggs 2

pancakes 5eggs 8

How you measure how much?

• You can measure mass,

• or volume,

• or you can count pieces.

• We measure mass in grams.

• We measure volume in liters.

• We count pieces in MOLES.

The Mole

• The mole is a number.

• A very large number, but still, just a number.

• 6.022 x 1023 of anything is a mole

– A large dozen.

– The number of atoms in exactly 12 grams of carbon-12.

The Mole

The mole is Avogadro’s Number of items (6.02 x 1023).

A mole of atoms weighs the same number of grams as the atomic weight. 1 mole of hydrogen weighs 1.0079g. 1 mole of carbon atoms weighs 12.011g. The atomic weight is not only the number of protons and neutrons but is the grams of 1 mole of atoms.

Using the mole and the atomic weight at grams/mole is stoichiometry.

The Mole• the balanced equation is the “recipe” for a chemical

reaction

• the equation 3 H2(g) + N2(g) 2 NH3(g) tells us that 3 molecules of H2 react with exactly 1 molecule of N2 and make exactly 2 molecules of NH3 or

3 molecules H2 1 molecule N2 2 molecules NH3 – in this reaction

• and since we count molecules by moles

3 moles H2 1 mole N2 2 moles NH3

Representative particles

• The smallest pieces of a substance.

• For a molecular compound it is a molecule.

• For an ionic compound it is a formula unit.

• For an element it is an atom.

Types of questions

• How many moles is 7.78 x 1024 formula units of MgCl2?

Measuring Moles

• The amu was one twelfth the mass of a carbon 12 atom.

• Since the mole is the number of atoms in 12 grams of carbon-12,

• the decimal number on the periodic table is also the mass of 1 mole of those atoms in grams.

Atomic Mass

• The mass of 1 mole of an element in grams.

• 12.01 grams of carbon has the same number of pieces as 1.008 grams of hydrogen and 55.85 grams of iron.

• We can right this as 12.01 g C = 1 mole

What about compounds?

• in 1 mole of H2O molecules there are two moles

of H atoms and 1 mole of O atoms

• To find the mass of one mole of a compound – determine the moles of the elements they have– Find out how much they would weigh– add them up

What about compounds?

• What is the mass of one mole of CH4?

• 1 mole of C = 12.01 g• 4 mole of H x 1.01 g = 4.04g

• 1 mole CH4 = 12.01 + 4.04 = 16.05g

• The Gram Molecular mass of CH4 is 16.05g

• N2O4

• C

• Ca(NO3)2

Gas and Moles

Gases• Many of the chemicals we deal with are

gases.

• They are difficult to weigh.

• Need to know how many moles of gas we have.

• Two things effect the volume of a gas– Temperature and pressure

Standard Temperature and Pressure (STP)

• 0ºC and 1 atm pressure

• At STP 1 mole of gas occupies 22.4 L

• Called the molar volume

• Avogadro's Hypothesis - at the same temperature and pressure equal volumes of gas have the same number of particles.

For Example• If 6.45 grams of water are decomposed,

how many liters of oxygen will be produced at STP?

• 2H2O 2H2 + O2

6.45 g H2O 18.02 g H2O1 mol H2O

2 mol H2O1 mol O2

1 mol O2

22.4 L O2

Example• How many liters of CH4 at STP are required

to completely react with 17.5 L of O2 ?

• CH4 + 2O2 CO2 + 2H2O

17.5 L O2 22.4 L O2 1 mol O2

2 mol O2 1 mol CH4

1 mol CH4 22.4 L CH4

= 8.75 L CH4

22.4 L O2 1 mol O2

1 mol CH4 22.4 L CH4

Examples• What is the volume of 4.59 mole of CO2

gas at STP?

• How many moles is 5.67 L of O2 at

STP?

• What is the volume of 8.8g of CH4 gas

at STP?

Example• How many liters of CO2 at STP will be

produced from the complete combustion of 23.2 g C4H10 ?

• What volume of oxygen will be required?

Density of a gas• D = m /V

• for a gas the units will be g / L

• We can determine the density of any gas at STP if we know its formula.

• To find the density we need the mass and the volume.

• If you assume you have 1 mole than the mass is the molar mass (PT)

• At STP the volume is 22.4 L.

Examples

• Find the density of CO2 at STP.

• Find the density of CH4 at STP.

The other way• Given the density, we can find the molar

mass of the gas.• Again, pretend you have a mole at STP, so V

= 22.4 L.• m = D x V• m is the mass of 1 mole, since you have 22.4

L of the stuff.• What is the molar mass of a gas with a

density of 1.964 g/L?• 2.86 g/L?

Limiting Reagent

Limiting Reactants

The limiting reactant (or limiting reagent) is the reactant that is entirely consumed when a reaction goes to completion.

The moles of product are always determined by the starting moles of the limiting reactant.

The Cheese Sandwich Analogy

Which is the limiting reactant?

• Use the relationships from the balanced chemical equation

• You take each reactant in turn and ask how much product would be obtain, if each were totally consumed.

• The reactant that gives the smaller amount of product is the limiting reactant.

Strategy:

Example

• Copper reacts with sulfur to form copper ( I ) sulfide. If 10.6 g of copper reacts with 3.83 g S how much product will be formed?

• If 10.6 g of copper reacts with 3.83 g S. How many grams of product will be formed?

• 2Cu + S Cu2S

10.6 g Cu 63.55g Cu 1 mol Cu

2 mol Cu 1 mol Cu2S

1 mol Cu2S

159.16 g Cu2S

= 13.3 g Cu2S

3.83 g S 32.06g S 1 mol S

1 mol S 1 mol Cu2S

1 mol Cu2S

159.16 g Cu2S

= 19.0 g Cu2S

= 13.3 g Cu2S

Cu is Limiting Reagent

Limiting Reactant: Example• 10.0g of aluminum reacts with 35.0 grams of

chlorine gas to produce aluminum chloride. Which reactant is limiting, which is in excess, and how much product is produced?

2 Al + 3 Cl2 2 AlCl3• Start with Al:

• Now Cl2:

10.0 g Al 1 mol Al 2 mol AlCl3 133.5 g AlCl3

27.0 g Al 2 mol Al 1 mol AlCl3

= 49.4g AlCl3

35.0g Cl2 1 mol Cl2 2 mol AlCl3 133.5 g AlCl3

71.0 g Cl2 3 mol Cl2 1 mol AlCl3

= 43.9g AlCl3

LimitingLimitingReactantReactant

LR Example Continued

• We get 49.4g of aluminum chloride from the given amount of aluminum, but only 43.9g of aluminum chloride from the given amount of chlorine. Therefore, chlorine is the limiting reactant. Once the 35.0g of chlorine is used up, the reaction comes to a complete .

Limiting Reactant Practice

• 15.0 g of potassium reacts with 15.0 g of iodine. Calculate which reactant is limiting and how much product is made.

Finding the Amount of Excess

• By calculating the amount of the excess reactant needed to completely react with the limiting reactant, we can subtract that amount from the given amount to find the amount of excess.

• Can we find the amount of excess potassium in the previous problem?

Finding Excess Practice• 15.0 g of potassium reacts with 15.0 g of iodine.

2 K + I2 2 KI

• We found that Iodine is the limiting reactant, and 19.6 g of potassium iodide are produced.

15.0 g I2 1 mol I2 2 mol K 39.1 g K

254 g I2 1 mol I2 1 mol K= 4.62 g K USED!

15.0 g K – 4.62 g K = 10.38 g K EXCESS

Given amount of excess reactant

Amount of excess reactant actually used

Note that we started with the limiting reactant! Once you determine the LR, you should only start with it!

Limiting Reactant: Recap

1. You can recognize a limiting reactant problem because there is MORE THAN ONE GIVEN AMOUNT.

2. Convert ALL of the reactants to the SAME product

3. The lowest answer is the correct answer.

Limiting Reactant: Recap

1. The reactant that gave you the lowest answer is the LIMITING REACTANT.

2. The other reactant (s) are in EXCESS.

3. To find the amount of excess, subtract the amount used from the given amount.

4. If you have to find more than one product, be sure to start with the limiting reactant. You don’t have to determine which is the LR over and over again!

Yield

• The amount of product made in a chemical reaction.

• There are three types

• Actual yield- what you get in the lab when the chemicals are mixed

• Theoretical yield- what the balanced equation tells you you should make.

• Percent yield = Actual x 100 % Theoretical

Example

• 6.78 g of copper is produced when 3.92 g of Al are reacted with excess copper (II) sulfate.

Empirical Formula

Percent Composition

• Formula:

Mass of one element X 100%

Mass of compound

Tells the relative mass each element contributes to the mass of the whole compound.

Practice

• Find the percent composition of the idicated element in the following:

• Al in aluminum sulfate• O in Tin (IV) phosphate• Iron in Iron (II) nitride• Nitrogen in ammonium phosphite• Hydrogen in perchloric acid• Carbon in glucose

The Empirical Formula• The lowest whole number ratio of elements

in a compound.

• The molecular formula the actual ratio of elements in a compound.

• The two can be the same. –CH2 empirical formula–C2H4 molecular formula–C3H6 molecular formula–H2O both

Calculating Empirical• Just find the lowest whole number ratio

• C6H12O6

• CH4N

• It is not just the ratio of atoms, it is also the ratio of moles of atoms.

• In 1 mole of CO2 there is 1 mole of carbon and 2 moles of oxygen.

• In one molecule of CO2 there is 1 atom of C and 2 atoms of O.

Calculating Empirical• We can get ratio from percent composition.

• Assume you have a 100 g.

• The percentages become grams.

• Can turn grams to moles.

• Find lowest whole number ratio by dividing by the smallest.

• Be careful! Do not round off numbers prematurelyBe careful! Do not round off numbers prematurely

Example

• Calculate the empirical formula of a compound composed of 38.67 % C, 16.22 % H, and 45.11 %N.

• Assume 100 g so

• 38.67 g C x 1mol C = 3.220 mole C 12.01 gC

• 16.22 g H x 1mol H = 16.09 mole H 1.01 gH

• 45.11 g N x 1mol N = 3.219 mole N 14.01 gN

Example

• The ratio is 3.220 mol C = 1 mol C 3.219 mol N 1 mol N

• The ratio is 16.09 mol H = 5 mol H 3.219 mol N 1 mol N

• C1H5N1
