Define a mole
State the value of Avogadro’s number
Perform calculations converting
moles to number of entities and vice
versa
Perform calculations determining
mass of a given number of particles
of an element or compound, or vice
versa
Mole
• A MOLE (mol) is just a word
representing a quantity.
Mole ratio
convert moles of one
compound in a balanced
chemical equation into moles
of another compound.
How do you measure how much?
• You can measure mass,
• or volume,
• or you can count pieces.
• We measure mass in grams.
• We measure volume in liters.
Counting
Counting words are used to simplify a description of a number of items.
1 dozen = 12 eggs
1 case = 24 cans
1 box = 144 pencils
1 pair = 2 shoes
(b)
(d)
Counting
12 steers 12 dinosaurs
12 flags
Just like the word dozen can stand
for 12 things, the mole stands for
6.022 x 1023 things.

Converting Moles to Particles
Avogadro’s number is used to convert
moles of a substance to particles.

Converting Particles to Moles
Avogadro’s number is used to convert
particles of a substance to moles.

Mass and the Mole

Molar Mass (MM)
General, Organic, and Biological Chemistry Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc.
MM Example 1:
= 1C + 4H
= 12.0 + 4(1.0)
= 16.0 g/mol
General, Organic, and Biological Chemistry Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc.
MM Example 2:
=Mg + 2O + 2H
=24.3 + 2(16.00) + 2(1.0)
=58.3 g/mol
General, Organic, and Biological Chemistry Copyright © 2010 Pearson Education, Inc.
MM Example 3:
=Mg + S + 4O + 7(H2O)
=24.3 + 32.1 + 4(16.00) + 7(1.0+1.0+16.00)
=246.4 g/mol

Atomic Mass Units (amu) versus
Molar Mass
The mass in grams of 1 mol of an element is
numerically equal to the element’s atomic mass from
the periodic table in atomic mass units.
In other words, 1 g/mol = 1 amu
They are interchangeable

Converting Moles to grams (mass)
How many grams are in 7.20 moles of dinitrogen
trioxide?
Dinitrogen trioxide = N2O3
MM of N2O3 = 2N + 3O = 2(14.01) + 3(16.00) = 76.02
1 mole = 76.02 g N2O3
