Chemical Formulas; Molecular and Ionic Substances
The chemical formula of a substance is a notation using atomic symbols with subscripts to show the relative proportions of atoms of the different elements in a substance.
Consider the formula of aluminum oxide, Al2O3. This formula implies that the compound is composed of aluminum atoms and oxygen atoms in the ratio 2:3.

A molecule is a definite group of atoms (two or more nonmetals) that are chemically bonded together – that is, tightly connected by attractive forces.
Chemical Formulas; Molecular Substances
Molecular substances
A molecular substance is a substance that is composed of molecules, all of which are alike.
A molecular formula gives the exact number of atoms of elements in a molecule.

Molecular Compounds
5
Naming Binary Molecular Compounds
• Binary molecular compounds consist of molecules that contain atoms of only two elements (nonmetals).
• In binary molecular compounds the more metallic element is listed first

Binary Molecular Compounds
CO - carbon monoxide
SO2 – sulfur dioxide
P2O5 – diphosphorus pentoxide
S2Cl2 – disulfur dichloride
N2O – dinitrogen monoxide
use prefixes in front of both elements; exception mono is never used in front of the first element

Compounds that consist of ions
Chemical Formulas; Ionic Substances
Ionic substances
An ion is an electrically charged particle obtained from an atom or chemically bonded group of atoms by adding or removing electrons.
When an atom loses an electron it becomes a positively charged - cationWhen an atom gains an electron it becomes a negatively charged - anion

The formula of an ionic compound is written by giving the smallest possible whole-number ratio of different ions in the substance.
Chemical Formulas; Ionic Substances
The formula unit of the substance is the group of atoms or ions explicitly symbolized by its formula.
Sodium chloride NaCl , not Na6Cl6

Main group metallic elements have the charge equal to the group number.
Most nonmetallic elements have the charge equal to the group number – 8
( for example oxygen 6 - 8 = - 2)
We do not use prefixes for binary ionic compounds!!!

Mass and Moles of a Substance
The molar mass of a substance is the mass of one mole of a substance.
For all substances, molar mass, in grams per mole, is numerically equal to the formula weight in atomic mass units.
That is, one mole of any element weighs its atomic mass in grams.

Molar Mass of Compounds
Calculate the molar mass of butane C4H10
C = 12.01 g/mol × 4 = 48.04 g/mol
H = 1.01 g/mol × 10 = 10.10 g/mol
C4H10 = 58.14 g/mol
21
Determining Chemical Formulas
The percent composition of a compound is the mass percentage of each element in the compound.
We define the mass percentage of “A” as the parts of “A” per hundred parts of the total, by mass. That is,
%100whole the of mass
whole in A"" of mass A"" % mass
22
Mass Percentages from Formulas
Let’s calculate the percent composition of butane, C4H10.
C % 82.63% 100g 58.14g 48.04
C %
4 moles of carbon × 12.01g/mol = 48.04 g
10 moles of hydrogen × 1.01 g/mol = 10.10 g
Total mass of 1 mol of C4H10 = 58.14 g
H % 17.37% 100g 58.14
g 10.10H %

Determining Chemical Formulas
We can calculate the percent composition by mass of a compound if we know its formula.
If we know the percent composition of a compound we can determine its empirical formula.
An empirical formula (or simplest formula) for a compound is the formula of the substance in in which the ratio of atoms or ions gives the smallest possible integer value

Determining Chemical Formulas
Benzoic acid is a white, crystalline powder used as a food preservative. The compound contains 68.8% C, 5.0% H, and 26.2% O by mass. What is its empirical formula?

In other words, give the smallest whole-number
ratio of the subscripts (moles) in the formula
26
Determining Chemical Formulas
For the purposes of this calculation, we will assume we have 100.0 grams of benzoic acid.
Since x, y, and z in our formula represent mole-mole ratios, we must first convert mass to moles.

The empirical formula is C7H6O2 .
To calculate the ratio of moles:
Multiply each number by 2 to get integers.

Determining Chemical Formulas
Determining the molecular formula from the empirical formula.
An empirical formula gives only the smallest whole-number ratio of atoms in a formula.
The molecular formula could be a multiple of the empirical formula
To determine the “true” molecular formula,
we must know the molar mass of the compound.
