Chemical Composition
• Counting by Weighing– Jelly beans are not identical in mass – Suppose you measured the mass of 10 jelly
beans– 5.1g, 5.2g, 5.0g, 4.8g, 4.9g, 5.0g, 5.0g, 5.1g,
4.9g, 5.0g
Chemical Composition
• We can use these masses to calculate the average mass
• Average Mass = Total Mass of Beans
Number of Beans
• Average Mass = 50.0 = 5.0g
10
• Therefore to measure 100 jelly beans you would weigh 500g of jelly beans
Chemical Composition
• If a mint has an average mass of 15g how do the jelly beans compare to the mints?
• Sample contains 1 component – Mints 15g– Jelly Beans 5g
• Sample contains 10 components– Mints 150g– Jelly Beans 50g
• Ratio is always 3:1, mints 3 times as massive
Chemical Composition
• A marble has an average mass of 8g, what mass of marbles would I have to measure to count out 25 marbles?
Chemical Composition
• Atomic Masses– Counting atoms by weighing
• C(s) + O2(g) CO2(g)
• The above equation tells us that one atom of carbon reaction with one molecule of oxygen to form 1 molecule of carbon dioxide
Chemical Composition
• To determine how many oxygen molecules are required we must know how many carbon atoms are present
• We must learn to count atoms by weighing
• Atoms are much too small to use units of measurement such as grams or kilograms
• The mass of a single carbon atom is 1.99 x 10-23g
Chemical Composition
• To avoid using very small numbers when describing an atom scientists have defined a much smaller mass unit called the atomic mass unit (amu)
• 1 amu = 1.66 x 10-24g
• In order to count carbon atoms by weighing we must know the average atomic mass
Chemical Composition
• The average atomic mass is the average of the masses of the different isotopes of each element
• The average atomic mass of carbon is 12.01amu
• This means that a sample of carbon can be treated as though it is made up of identical atoms each with a mass of 12.01
Chemical Composition
• What mass of natural carbon must was take to have 1000 atoms present?
• Mass of 1000 carbon atoms =
(1000 atoms)(12.01 amu)
atom
• Mass of 1000 carbon atoms=
1.204 x 104 amu
Chemical Composition
• 1 carbon atom = 12.01 amu
• Sample of carbon weighs 3.00 x 1020amu
• 3.00 x 1020 amu x 1 carbon atom =
12.01 amu
• 2.50 x 1019 carbon atoms
Chemical Composition
• Calculate the mass of a sample of aluminum that contains 75 atoms
• Calculate the number of sodium atoms in a sample that has a mass of 1172.49 amu
Chemical Composition
• Calculate the mass of a sample that contains 23 nitrogen atoms
• Calculate the number of oxygen atoms in a sample that has a mass of 288 amu
Chemical Composition
• Atomic Mass Units (amu) are very small units
• We must learn to count atoms in samples by using masses measured in grams
• We use the mole to describe the number of atoms in a specific mass (grams) of a particular element
Chemical Composition
• Mole: the number equal to the number of carbon atoms in a 12.01g sample of carbon
• Avagadro’s Number: 6.022 x 1023, a mole of something contains 6.022 x 1023 units of that substance
Chemical Composition
• How do we use moles in calculations?– Recall: 1 mole is defined as the number of
atoms in 12.01g of carbon– Therefore there are 6.022 x 1023 atoms in
12.01g of Carbon– The average atomic mass of carbon is
12.01amu– A sample of any element that weighs a
number of grams equal to the atomic mass has 6.022 x 1023 atoms present
Chemical Composition
Element Number of Atoms

Aluminum 6.022 x 1023 26.98
Gold 6.022 x 1023 196.97
Iron 6.022 x 1023 55.85
Sulfur 6.022 x 1023 32.07

Chemical Composition
• Sample A contains a mole of Hydrogen atoms, sample A has a mass of 1.008g. Sample B has an unknown amount of atoms of Hydrogen. How can we determine the number of atoms in sample B?– Assume the mass of Sample B is 0.500g
Chemical Composition
• 0.500g H x 1 mole H = 0.496 mole H 1.008g H
• We know that 1 mole = 6.022 x 1023 atoms
• 0.496 mole H x 6.022 x 1023 H atoms = 1 mole H
• 2.99x1023 H atoms in Sample B

Chemical Composition
• A chemical compound is a collection of atoms
• CH4
– Consists of 1 C atom and 4 H atoms
• How can we calculate the mass of 6.022 x 1023 molecules?
Chemical Composition
• Since the compound CH4 contains 1 C atom and 4 H atoms
• 1 mole of CH4 contains 1 mole of C atoms and 4 moles of H atoms
Chemical Composition
• 10 CH4 atoms would contain 10 Carbon atoms and 40 Hydrogen atoms
• 1 Mole of CH4 would contain 6.022 x 1023 carbon atoms and 4(6.022 x 1023) hydrogen atoms
• Mass CH4 = 12.01g + 4(1.008g)
• Mass CH4 = 16.04g

• Mass Percent: defines the mass of a component of a substance relative to the total mass of the substance
• Mass Percent = Mass of Part X 100%
Mass of Whole
Chemical Composition
Given the compound C2H5OH we can calculate the mass percent of each component. First, we must calculate the molar mass.
• Molar mass=2(12.01) + 6(1.008) + 15.999 – 46.07g
Chemical Composition
• Mass of C = 2(12.01g) = 24.02g
• Mass percent of C– 24.02g x 100% = 52.14%
46.07g
• Mass of H = 6(1.008g) = 6.048g
• Mass percent of H – 6.048g x 100% = 13.13%
