Molecular mass – the sum of the average atomic masses of all the atoms in a molecule
***Remember*** A molecule is a neutral group of atoms that are held together by covalent bonds!!!
Formula Mass
The Mole and Molar Mass Molar Mass
The atomic molar mass is the mass of one mole of atoms. This is the value found on your Periodic Table. All values are rounded to three decimal
places. The term molar mass is a general
term referring to the mass of one mole of a compound. Also called molecular mass, formula mass, molar mass. Add the molar mass together for each
atom bonded together
Molar Mass of Compounds The molar mass (mm) of a compound is determined the
same way, except now you add up all the atomic masses for the molecule (or compound) Ex. Molar mass of CaCl2
Avg. Atomic mass of Calcium = 40.08g Avg. Atomic mass of Chlorine = 35.45g Molar Mass of calcium chloride =
40.08 g/mol Ca + (2 X 35.45) g/mol Cl 110.98 g/mol CaCl2

The Mole Atoms, ions and molecules are so small it is
impractical to refer to 1, 2 or 3 of these particles.
Mole: 6.02 x 1023 items. This is the number of atoms required to produce the atomic mass of an element when that mass is expressed in grams.
Example:1 atom Mg = 24.31 amu (4.04 x 10-23 g)
6.02 x 1023 atoms Mg = 24.31 g
Avogadro’s Number
Avogadro’s Number (symbol N) is the number of atoms in 12.01 grams of carbon.
Its numerical value is 6.02 × 1023.
Therefore, a 12.01 g sample of carbon contains 6.02 × 1023 carbon atoms.
The Mole Reading Balanced Equations
2 Mg(s) + O2(g) 2 MgO(s)
2 Mg atoms + 1 O2 molecule produces 2 MgO formula units.
12.04 x 1023 Mg atoms + 6.02 x 1023 O2 molecules produces 12.04 x 1023 MgO formula units.
2 mol Mg atoms + 1 mol O2 molecules produces 2 mol MgO formula units.
The terms atoms, molecules and formula units are usually omitted: Two moles magnesium react with one mole oxygen to produce two moles magnesium oxide.
The MoleOther Examples:
Cu(s) + 2 AgNO3(aq) 2 Ag(s) + Cu(NO3)2(aq)
One mole of copper
metal
reacts with two moles of silver
nitrate solution
to produce two moles of silver
metal
and one mole of copper(II)
nitrate solution.

The volume occupied by one mole of softballs would be about the size of the Earth.
One mole of Olympic shot put balls has about the same mass as the Earth.

Elements in a compound combine in a constant proportion by mass.
For example, 1 g hydrogen combines with 8 g oxygen to produce 9 g water.
If atoms of an element have a specific mass, it must be true that atoms combine in a specific ratio.

Empirical/Molecular Formulas and REVIEW
EMPERICAL FORMULA
The Empirical Formula is the simplest integer ratio of the elements in a compound.
For example: C4H8 is NOT an empirical formula. CH2 IS.
EMPERICAL FORMULA
Assume you have 100 g of the substance (makes the math easier because everything is a straight percent).
Consider the amounts you are given as being in units of grams.
Convert the grams to moles for each element.
Find the smallest whole number ratio of moles for each element.
EMPIRICAL FORMULA
EXAMPLE:
Find the empirical formula for a compound consisting of 63% Mn and 37% O
EMPIRICAL FORMULA
Assuming 100 g of the compound, there would be 63 g Mn and 37 g OLook up the number of grams per mole for each element using the Periodic Table. There are 54.94 grams in each mole of manganese and 16.00 grams in a mole of oxygen.63 g Mn × (1 mol Mn)/(54.94 g Mn) = 1.1 mol Mn37 g O × (1 mol O)/(16.00 g O) = 2.3 mol O
EMPIRICAL FORMULA
Find the smallest whole number ratio by dividing the number of moles of each element by the number of moles for the element present in the smallest molar amount. In this case there is less Mn than O, so divide by the number of moles of Mn:1.1 mol Mn/1.1 = 1 mol Mn2.3 mol O/1.1 = 2.1 mol OThe best ratio is Mn:O of 1:2 and the formula is MnO2The empirical formula is MnO2
Molecular Formula
Molecular Formula is the exact ratio of the elements in the compound.
You can find the Molecular Formula of a compound by using the empirical formula and the molar mass.
The mass of the molecular formula is called the molecular mass (in the same way that the mass of the empirical formula is called the formula mass)
Molecular Formula
1) Calculate the mass of the empirical formula and divide the molar mass of the compound by the mass of the empirical formula in order to find the ratio between the molecular formula and the empirical formula.
2)Then multiply all the atoms by this ratio to find the molecular formula!
Molecular Formula
EXAMPLE:
What is the molecular formula of a compound that has a molecular weight of 240g? A 5.00g sample contains 2.00g of Carbon, 0.34g of Hydrogen and 2.69g of Oxygen.
