Chemistry 11 INTRODUCTION TO UNIT TWO THE MOLE What is a dozen? Consider: the mass of 12 donuts does not equal the mass of 12 timbits OR, consider: 150 g donuts vs. 150 g timbits. You will need a lot more timbits to reach this mass than donuts. Definition of the mole: the number of particles in exactly 12 g of the isotope Carbon -12. OR The number of carbon-12 atoms in 12 grams of unbound carbon in the ground state. That number is 6.02 x 10 23 ( Avogadro's number ) Lorenzo Romano Amedeo Carlo Avogadro di Quaregna e di Cerreto 9 August 1776, Turin, 9 July 1856 For example: B 5 (atomic number 5) The mass of one Boron atom is 10.8 amu. atomic mass units This mass is compared to the Carbon-12 isotope. AMU is our standard to compare to! It is 1/12 of the C-12 atom. This is equivalent to 1.66 x 10-27 kg. 6. 02 x 10 23 atoms of Boron are contained in 10.8 g of Boron. We say that the atomic mass is 10.8 g / mole. ( g / mole is a much more use-able unit to use than amu, especially when we have to do unit cancelling calculations) For example. The ionic compound, Calcium Sulphide. Chemical Formula CaS. 1 mole sulphur = 32.1 g That s 6.02 x 10 23 sulphur atoms having a mass of 32.1g But we also say 1 sulphur atom = 32.1 amu 1 mole Ca = 40.1 g That s 6.02 x 10 23 calcium atoms having a mass of 40.1g 1 Ca atom = 40.1 amu BUT, we can't work with amu, because this is only 1 molecule or compound or atom or element! Therefore it is more practical to talk about 1 mole of CaS molecules (or 6.02 x 10 23 CaS molecules) = 72.1 g. So we would say that the molar mass of CaS is 72.1 g/mole. Also stated as molecular mass.
The Mole and History of The Term "Mole" Avogadro's number, the number of particles in a mole, can be experimentally determined by first "counting" the number of atoms in a smaller space and then scaling up to find the number of particles that would have a mass equal to the atomic or molecular mass in grams. The History of the Term"Mole" The Avogadro constant is named after the early nineteenth century Italian scientist Amedeo Avogadro, who is credited (1811) with being the first to realize that the volume of a gas (strictly, of an ideal gas) is proportional to the number of atoms or molecules. The French chemist Jean Baptiste Perrin in 1909 proposed naming the constant in honor of Avogadro. Real World Moles Given that the volume of a grain of sand is approximately 10-12 m 3, and given that the area of the United States is about 10 13 m 2, it therefore follows that a mole of sand grains would cover the United States in approximately one centimeter of sand. A human body contains very roughly one hundred trillion cells; there are roughly six billion people on Earth; so the total number of human cells on the planet is approximately 100 10 12 *6 10 9 =6 10 23, which is very close to one mole. Since the Earth has a radius of about 6400 km, its volume is approximately 10 21 m 3. Since about 500 large grapefruit will fit in one cubic meter, it therefore follows that a mole of grapefruit would have approximately the same volume as the Earth. If you had a mole of pennies, you could give out enough money to everyone in the world so that they could spend a million dollars every hour, day and night, for the rest of their lives. ONE DOZEN can be: 12 dinner rolls 12 eggs 12 roses 12 blood cells (microscopic things too!) 12 of anything!!!!! Similarily, ONE MOLE Can be: 6. 02 x 10 23 atoms 6. 02 x 10 23 molecules 6. 02 x 10 23 protons 6. 02 x 10 23 ions 6. 02 x 10 23 of anything!!!!
