objects by weighing
 For purposes of counting, objects behave as though
they are all identical
 Samples of matter can contain huge numbers of
atoms
 Number of atoms in a sample can be determined by
finding its mass

Chemistry
 Since elements occur in nature as mixtures of
isotopes, atomic masses are usually average

 We are given grams of CH4 and asked to solve for moles of
CH4.
 What conversion factor do we need to convert between grams
and moles?

Section 3.3
The Mole
Copyright ©2018 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved.
Example 3.6 3
 Solution
 The conversion factor needed to convert between grams and moles is the
molar mass. First we need to calculate the molar mass of CH4, following
the procedure in Example 3.5:
 molar mass of CH4 = 12.01 g + 4(1.008
g)
=16.04 g
Because
1 mol CH4 = 16.04 g CH4
the conversion factor we need should have grams in the denominator so that
the unit g will cancel, leaving the unit mol in the numerator:

Example 3.7 2
 Strategy
 We are asked to solve for atoms of hydrogen in 25.6 g of urea.
We cannot convert directly from grams of urea to atoms of
hydrogen.
 How should molar mass and Avogadro’s number be used in
this calculation?
 How many moles of H are in 1 mole of urea?
30
Section 3.3
The Mole
Copyright ©2018 Cengage Learning. All Rights Reserved.
Example 3.7 3
Solution
To calculate the number of H atoms, we first must convert grams
of urea to moles of urea using the molar mass of urea. This part is
similar to Example 3.2.
The molecular formula of urea shows there are four moles of H
atoms in one mole of urea molecule, so the mole ratio is 4:1.
Finally, knowing the number of moles of H atoms, we can
calculate the number of H atoms using Avogadro’s number. We
need two conversion factors: molar mass and Avogadro’s number.

 The percent by mass of each element (H, P, and O) is given by

of H3PO4, then multiplied by 100 percent.

Check
Do the percentages add to 100 percent? The sum of the percentages is

100 percent is due to the way we rounded off.

 In a chemical formula, the subscripts represent the ratio of the

Example 3.9 3
Solution
If we have 100 g of ascorbic acid, then each percentage can be converted
directly to grams. In this sample, there will be 40.92 g of C, 4.58 g of H, and
54.50 g of O. Because the subscripts in the formula represent a mole ratio, we
need to convert the grams of each element to moles. The conversion factor
needed is the molar mass of each element. Let n represent the number of moles
of each element so that.

Example 3.9 4
 Thus we arrive at the formula C3.407H4.54O3.406,
 which gives the identity and the mole ratios of atoms present.
However, chemical formulas are written with whole numbers.
Try to convert to whole numbers by dividing all the subscripts by
the smallest subscript (3.406):
3.407 4.54 3.406
C: 1H : 1.33 O : 1
3.406 3.406 3.406
  
 where
the
  sign means “approximately equal to.”
 This gives CH1.33O as the formula for ascorbic acid. Next, we need to
convert 1.33, the subscript for H, into an integer.

Limiting Reactant
 One that runs out first and thus limits the amount
of product that can form
 To determine how much product can be formed from
a given mixture of reactants, one must look for the
reactant that is limiting

which runs out first

molecules

Interactive Example 3.18 - Solution (continued 4)
 We can determine the limiting reactant by calculating
the amounts of CH3OH formed by complete
consumption of CO(g) and H2(g):
 Since complete consumption of the H2 produces the smaller
amount of CH3OH, the H2 is the limiting reactant as we
determined above
