MOLE CONCEPT

IMPORTANCE OF CHEMISTRY:

1. Meets human needs for food, healthcare products


2. Synthesis of drugs used to treat various diseases
- Cisplatin and taxol- cancer therapy
- AZT(azidothymidine) – AIDS
3. Establishment of industries such as acids, alkalis, polymesr metals etc.

STATES OF MATTER:

SOLID: particles held together with strong force of attraction. They have
definite shape and volume.

LIQUID: Force of attraction is lesser, so particles can move around. They


have definite volume but not shape.
GAS: Particles are far apart from each other with very less force of
attraction between them. They have neither definite shape nor definite
volume.

CLASSIFICATION OF MATTER:

MIXTURE PURE SUBSTANCE


Homogeneous
Element
mixture

Heterogeneous
Compound
mixture

Homogenous mixture: The particles of components are uniformly distributed


and composition is same throughout the mixture.

Ex: sugar solution, air, tea

Heterogeneous mixture: The particles of components are separately visible and


not uniformly distributed. The composition is not same throughout the
mixture.
Ex: salt and sugar, grains with pulses
Element: particles of an element consist of only one type of atoms. The may
exist as atoms or molecules.
Ex: hydrogen, oxygen

Compound: a compound is formed when two or more atoms of different


elements combine in a definite ratio.

Ex: water, carbon dioxide

PROPERTIES OF MATTER

PHYSICAL: Can be measured or observed


without changing the identity or CHEMICAL: their measurement and
composition of a substance. Ex: Colour, observation requires a chemical reaction
shape, melting point to occur. Ex: Acidity, Basicity

SOME COMMON UNITS OTHER THAN SI UNITS:

1. Litre: measures volume.


- 1L= 1000mL or 1000 cm3 or 1dm3
2. Fahrenheit: measures temperature.
- ℉ =9/5(℃ ¿ + 32
3. Kelvin: measures temperature
- K = ℃+273.15

SIGNIFICANT FIGURES

1. All non-zero digits are significant.Ex: there are 3 significant figures in 285.

2. Zeroes preceeding to the first non-zero digit are not significant. Ex: There are 2
significant figures in 0.025

3. Zeroes between two non-zero digits are significant. Ex: There are 4 significant figures
in 2.005

4. Zeroes at the end of a number which does not have a decimal are not significant. Ex:
There are 2 significant figures in 46000

5. All zeroes to the right of a decimal are significant. Ex: There are 4 significant figures in
1.2400

6. The number of objects e.g. 2 balls or 4 books have infinite significant figures as these
are exact numbers.

PRECISION AND ACCURACY

PRECISION: Closeness of various ACCURACY: How close an experimental


measurements for the same quantity. result is to the actual value.

Precise experiments may or may not be accurate, but all accurate experiments
are precise.
ADDITION AND SUBTRACTION OF SIGNIFICANT FIGURES:

The sum or difference must have same number of decimal places as that of
the original number with minimum number of decimal places.
Ex: Add 7.21, 12.141 and 00028
Solution: here minimum number of decimal places is 2, in 7.21.
7.21+.12.141.0.0028= 19.3538
= 19.35

MULTIPLICATION AND DIVISION OF SIGNIFICANT FIGURES:


The product or quotient must have same number of significant figures as that
of the original number with minimum number of significant figures.
Ex: Divide 5.74 by 1.2
Solution: 5.74/1.2= 4.7833
But here minimum number of significant figures is 2.
5.74/1.2= or 4.8
ROUNDING OFF RULES:
1. If the digit to be removed is greater than 5, the preceeding number is increased
by 1. Ex: If we need to round off 3.187 to 3 significant figures, then 7 is removed
and 1 is added to the number, i.e, 3.19.

2. If the digit to be removed is less than 5, the preceeding number is not changed.
Ex: If we need to round off 4.12 to 2 significant figures, then 2 is removed and
preceeding number remains unchanged,i.e, 4.1

3. If digit to be removed is 5, the preceeding number remains unchanged if it is


even. Ex: if 6.125 has to be rounded off to 3 significant figures, then 5 is removed
and preceeding number remains unchanged i.e, 6.12

4. If digit to be removed is 5, then preceeding number is increased by 1 if it is odd.


Ex: if 7.75 has to be rounded off to 2 significant figures, 5 is removed and 1 is
added to preceeding number i.e, 7.8

Dimensional Analysis: The method used to convert units from one system to
another is called factor label method/ unit factor method or dimensional
analysis.

ATOMIC MASS

The present system of atomic masses is based on carbon-12 as standard.


1 atomic mass unit or 1 a.m.u. or 1 u is defined as the mass exactly equal to
one-twelfth of the mass of one carbon-12 atom.
1 amu= 1.67 x 10−24g

AVERAGE ATOMIC MASS


It is the average of the masses of all isotopes of an element

∑ AiXi
Average atomic mass=
∑ Xi
Where Ai=mass number, Xi= percent occurrence

MOLECULAR MASS

It is the sum of the atomic masses of all the elements present in a molecule.

Molecular mass= ∑ AiXi


Where Ai= mass number, Xi= no. of atoms of that element in the compound

MOLE CONCEPT AND MOLAR MASS

One mole is the amount of substance that contains as many particles or


entities as there are atoms in 12g of C-12 isotope.

Through careful calculcations it was found that 1 mol of carbon-12 isotope


contains 6.022 x 1023 atoms.

In the honour of Amedeo Avagadro, this number is called Avagadro constant


or Avagadro number and is denoted by N A .
N A = 6.022 x 1023

No . of particles∨entities

EMPIRICAL FORMULA

Empirical formula is the simplest whole number molar ratio of various atoms
present in a compound.

STEPS TO DETERMINE EMPIRICAL FORMULA:

1. Convert the given mass or mass% of elements into number of moles of


each element.
2. Divide each of the mole values by the smallest number among them.
3. Multiply by the smallest whole number to get a simple whole number
ratio.
4. Write down empirical formula by mentioning the numbers a suffix after
writing the symbols of respective elements.

MOLECULAR FORMULA

Molecular formula shows the exact number of atoms of different elements


present in a compound.

Molecular mass= n x empirical formula


molecular weight
Where n= mass of empirical formula

STOICHIOMETRY

The calculation of amount of reactant or product in a chemical reaction is


called stoichiometric calculation.
For example, in the balanced equation:
CH 4 + 2O 2 → CO2 +2 H 2 O
The coefficients 2 for O2 and H 2 O are called stoichiometric coefficients.
They represent the no. of molecules or moles taking part in the reaction or
formed in the reaction.
Here, 1 mole of CH 4 reacts with 2 moles of O2 to give 1 mole of CO 2 and 2 moles
of H 2 O .
no . of moles
 coefficient ratio remains same for all reactants and products in a
balanced chemical equation.
LIMITING REAGENT
The reactant that gets finished first in a reaction is called the limiting
reagent. The reactant that is left out is called the excess reagent.
no . of moles
 The reactant whose coefficient ratio is smallest is the limiting reagent.
no . of moles
 In chemical reactions involving limiting reagents, the coefficient ratio of
no . of moles
products is equal to coefficient ratio of the limiting reagent.
