they are too small to count individually
2. Avogadro’s number of marbles would be the size of…
the Moon
9.1
3. Avogadro’s number is sometimes referred to as…
the chemist’s dozen
9.2
4. How do we define a mole?
the amount of substance that contains Avogadro’s number of particles
5. The mole relationship allows us to convert between what?
the number of particles and the mass of substance
9.3
6. What is the molar mass?
the atomic mass of a substance expressed in grams
7. The atomic mass of iron is _55.85 amu_; the molar mass of iron is _55.85 g_.
8. How can we calculate the molar mass of a compound?
by adding the molar masses of each element in it
9.4
9. What is the central unit in chemistry?
the mole
9.5
10. What did Avogadro propose in 1811?
that two gases containing equal numbers of molecules occupy equal volumes under similar conditions
11. Standard temperature is _0oC_. Standard pressure is _1 atm_, which is…
the atmospheric pressure exerted by air at sea level
12. What is the molar volume?
the volume occupied by 1 mol of any gas at STP
9.6
13. Write the three interpretations of the mole.
1 mol = 6.02 x 1023 particles, 1 mol = molar mass, 1 mol = 22.4 L at STP
9.7
14. What does the percent composition of a compound list?
the mass % of each element
15. What two things are compared in finding the percent composition of, say, water?
the molar masses of hydrogen (and oxygen) and the molar mass of the whole compound
9.8
16. What two things did chemists measure in determining the formula of a compound containing oxygen?
the mass of the element and the mass of the oxide after reaction
17. The empirical formula of a compound corresponds to what?
the simplest whole number ratio of atoms of each element in a molecule
18. We determine the ratio of the empirical formula from the _moles_ of each element.
19. What did the EPA discover about benzene?
it is a carcinogen
9.9
20. Molecular compounds are represented by what?
individual molecules composed of nonmetal atoms
21. The molecular formula is some _multiple_ of the empirical formula.
22. The two things you need to calculate the molecular formula of a compound are the compound’s
_molar_ _mass_ and the mass of the _empirical_ _formula_.
