The Mole and its Conversions
Molar Mass
Percent Composition
Empirical Formulas
Molecular Formulas
Standards Addressed:
Conservation of Matter and Stoichiometry
3b. Students know the quantity of one mole is set by defining one mole of carbon-12 atoms to
have a mass of exactly 12 grams.
3c. Students know one mole equals 6.02 x 1023 particles (atoms or molecules).
3d. Students know how to determine the molar mass of a molecule from its chemical formula
and a table of atomic masses and how to convert the mass of a molecular substance to
moles, number of particles, or volume of gas at standard temperature and pressure.
Anticipatory Set: Remember Dimensional Analysis? Here it again, in a chemistry context.
Objective: By the end of the lesson, the student will:
 Know the meaning of the mole
 Know how to convert between moles, grams, and number of particles
 Know how to calculate the molar mass of a compound
 Know how to calculate percent composition
 Know how to determine empirical formulas
 Know how to determine molecular formulas
Purpose: Future purpose.
 We will use this information to solve stoichiometry problems. You will be tested on this in the Spring. You need
this information for AP Chemistry. This is some of the basic chemistry information that you will need in your
college chemistry courses.

If given the mass of a compound and the mass of the individual elements, then:
1. Determine how many grams of each element is present
2. find the number of moles of each element
3. divide each mole number by the smallest mole number
4. write the formula
 if you come up with a decimal number, then multiply the decimal number by a
whole number to get a whole number
 then multiply all other ratios by that same whole number
Example:
Analysis of 20.0 g of a compound containing only calcium and bromine indicates that 4.00 g of
calcium are present. What is the empirical formula of the compound formed?
MOLECULAR FORMULAS
Molecular Formula: The actual number of atoms of each element in one molecule or formula
unit of the substance.
 If the molecular formula is different than the empirical formula, the molecular formula
will always be a simple multiple of the empirical formula.
You calculate the molecular formula from the empirical formula.
To find the molecular formula:

(Molecular Formula) = (Empirical Formula)N…N distributes to all the subscripts
Examples:
The molar mass of a compound is 42 g/mol. Its empirical formula is CH2. What is the
molecular formula for this compound?
What is the molecular formula for a compound with an empirical formula of OH and a
molar mass of 34 g/mol?
