Examine the periodic table. What is the atomic weight (AW) of carbon?
Atomic Weight or Atomic Mass
6
01.12C
The atomic weight of C is
or 12.01 u/atom
It means that each C atom weighs12.01 u.
(In this class you should make it a habit to look up AW to 4 sig. fig.)
![Page 3: Atomic Weight, Molecular Weight, Formula Weight and Molar Mass](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081419/56815af5550346895dc8b000/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)

Molecular Weightor Molecular Mass
The AW of C is 12.01 u/atom
The AW of O is 16.00 u/atom.
Therefore, the mass of one molecule of CO2 would be 12.01 + 2(16.00) = 44.01 u/molecule. (Always round to 4 sig. fig.)
We call this the molecular weight (MW) or molecular mass.
What is the MW of methane (CH4)?
Ans. 16.04 u/molecule

Formula Mass
If we add up the atomic mass of Na and Cl we get 22.99 + 35.45 = 58.44.
What is wrong with saying…
the molecular weight of NaCl is
58.44 u/molecule?
![Page 5: Atomic Weight, Molecular Weight, Formula Weight and Molar Mass](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081419/56815af5550346895dc8b000/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)

Formula Mass
For molecular substances, the smallest unit is the molecule.
For ionic substances, the smallest unit is the "formula unit" abbreviated f.u.
e.g. If you pluck out the smallest unit out of water, you would have a water molecule.
![Page 6: Atomic Weight, Molecular Weight, Formula Weight and Molar Mass](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081419/56815af5550346895dc8b000/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
666
Formula Mass
When you pluck out the smallest unit of table salt you would have a formula unit of NaCl.
Na+ClNa+ClNa+Cl
ClNa+ClNa+ClNa+
Na+ClNa+ClNa+Cl
Na+Cl-
We often simply write NaCl, but it is understood that
Na is Na+ and Cl is Cl-.
There are no molecules in an ionic compound!

Summary:
Atomic Weight (AW) = mass of one atom(for atoms)in units of amu/atom
Molecular Weight (MW) = mass of one molecule(for molecular substances) in units of amu/molecule
Formula Weight (FW) = mass of one f.u. (for ionic compounds)
in units of amu/f.u.
AW, MW and FW

Calculate the formula weight of…(and give the proper units) cobalt(III) sulfide
ammonium sulfate
Calculate the molecular weight of… (CH3CH2)3N

99
Calculate the formula weight of…
Na2SO42H2O
This is known as a hydrate.The dot in the formula does NOT mean
you multiply anything.The dot means there are 2 water
molecules attached to each f.u. of Na2SO4.
What is its formula weight?

The Mole ConceptOne mole is defined as the number of atoms in exactly 12 g of C-12 atoms.
Remember that C-12 refers to the isotope….
C126
It turns out that there are 6.022x1023 C atoms in those 12 grams. So….
1 mole = 6.022x1023
(not an exact number, but in 4 sig. fig.) MEMORIZE THIS NOW!
6.022x1023 C atoms
exactly 12 g C
![Page 11: Atomic Weight, Molecular Weight, Formula Weight and Molar Mass](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081419/56815af5550346895dc8b000/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
1111
1 mole = 6.022x1023
This number is known asAvogadro's number
Note: Mole is abbreviated mol NOT m (which stands for meters)
Note: It is a NUMBER.It is NOT a mass.It does NOT have the unit of
grams.
The Mole Concept

We all know…1 dozen eggs = 12 eggs1 dozen atoms = 12 atoms
In the same way, we use the word "mole"…
1 mole eggs = 6.022x1023 eggsObviously that is a VERY big number of
eggs. There would be no occasion to be talking about a mole of eggs.
When do you we use "moles?"
The Mole Concept
![Page 13: Atomic Weight, Molecular Weight, Formula Weight and Molar Mass](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081419/56815af5550346895dc8b000/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
131313
The Mole Concept
1 mol atoms = 6.022x1023 atoms
1 mol molecules = 6.022x1023 molecules
1 mol electrons = 6.022x1023 electrons
The "mole" is not a mass itself, just a number of items.
Why do we bother with such a strange number?
Let us take a look at the periodic table.
![Page 14: Atomic Weight, Molecular Weight, Formula Weight and Molar Mass](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081419/56815af5550346895dc8b000/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

The Mole Concept
The atom is a very, very small particle. You can fit 7000 atoms on the dot of an i.
It is too small to see with the naked eye, and too small to hold in your hand or weigh on the balance.
We must use a much larger quantity of atoms: a mole of atoms.
![Page 15: Atomic Weight, Molecular Weight, Formula Weight and Molar Mass](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081419/56815af5550346895dc8b000/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

The Mole Concept
One atom of silver weighs 107.9 u, which is 0.0000000000000000000001079 gram
Get the picture? You cannot weigh a single atom of silver, but you CAN weigh a mole of Ag atoms. 107.9 g is about 3.8 ounces.
47
87.107Ag
From the periodic table, we can get the atomic weight for Ag. This mass can be given in two units:
107.9 u per atom
or
107.9 g per mole of atoms
![Page 16: Atomic Weight, Molecular Weight, Formula Weight and Molar Mass](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081419/56815af5550346895dc8b000/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
161616
The Mole ConceptFrom the periodic table we see that…
Ag is 107.9 g/mol
Cu is 63.55 g/mol
What does 107.87 g of Ag have in common with 63.55 g of Cu?
They both contain the same number of atoms:
6.022x1023 Ag atoms and
6.022x1023 Cu atoms,
in other words, 1 mole Ag and 1 mol Cu.
Cu Ag

The Mole ConceptEarlier we were talking about the
AW, MW and FW. Now we are going to add one more….
MM = molar mass
Whenever you see "molar" you should think "per mole."
Molar mass = mass per mole (for 1 mol) with units of g/mol
KNOW THIS WELL! SEE THIS IN YOUR DREAMS….AND NIGHTMARES!
![Page 18: Atomic Weight, Molecular Weight, Formula Weight and Molar Mass](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081419/56815af5550346895dc8b000/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
181818
Molar Mass (MM)The atomic mass from the periodic table can be used with two units:
amu/atom or g/mole (or g mol-1)
REMEMBER: Whenever you see a fractional unit(such as amu/atom, g/mol, g/mL)you should think "conversion factor"!The g/mol gives you the link betweenMASS AND # of MOLES.
![Page 19: Atomic Weight, Molecular Weight, Formula Weight and Molar Mass](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081419/56815af5550346895dc8b000/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

Molar Mass (MM)
The FW ofCo2(SO4)3 is 406.7 amu/f.u.Its MM = 406.7 g/mol2(58.93)+3(32.07)+12(16.00) = 406.7
We had calculated the MW of… (CH3CH2)3N to be 101.2 amu/moleculeIts MM = 101.2 g/mol2x3C + 5x3H + N = 6(12.01) + 15(1.008) + 14.01 = 101.2
![Page 20: Atomic Weight, Molecular Weight, Formula Weight and Molar Mass](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081419/56815af5550346895dc8b000/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
202020
Molar Mass (MM)
Note that we no longer need to distinguish between f.u. and molecules in the units of MM.
It is understood that for Co2(SO4)3
its MM = 406.7 g/mol of f.u.and for (CH3CH2)3N its MM = 101.2 g/mol of molecules.

Use of Avogadro's Number in Dimensional Analysis
Conversion factorsfrom Avogadro's number:
X mol 1

X 6.022x10
X mol 1 23

Note that X can be anyTHING, such as CO2, K2SO4, electrons, Na+, etc….
as long as it is EXACTLY the same on top as on the bottom.
BUT it cannot be a unit, such as g or mL.

Use of Avogadro's Number in Dimensional Analysis
You use Avogadro's number ONLY if you have to go between the macroscopic and the particulate (sub-microscopic) levels.
