2 Compounds & Molecules COMPOUNDS are a combination of 2 or more elements in definite ratios by mass. The character of each element is lost when forming a compound. MOLECULES are the smallest unit of a compound that retains the characteristics of the compound.

7 MOLECULAR WEIGHT AND MOLAR MASSMolecular weight = sum of the atomic weights of all atoms in the molecule. Molar mass = molecular weight in grams

8 What is the molar mass of ethanol, C2H6O?1 mol contains 2 mol C (12.01 g C/1 mol) = g C 6 mol H (1.01 g H/1 mol) = g H 1 mol O (16.00 g O/1 mol) = g O TOTAL = molar mass = g/mol

19 IONS AND IONIC COMPOUNDS see Screen 3.5IONS are atoms or groups of atoms with a positive or negative charge. Taking away an electron from an atom gives a CATION with a positive charge Adding an electron to an atom gives an ANION with a negative charge.

20 Forming Cations & AnionsA CATION forms when an atom loses one or more electrons. An ANION forms when an atom gains one or more electrons F + e- --> F- Mg --> Mg e-

39 Properties of Ionic Compounds Forming NaCl from Na and Cl2A metal atom can transfer an electron to a nonmetal. The resulting cation and anion are attracted to each other by electrostatic forces.

40 Electrostatic Forces The oppositely charged ions in ionic compounds are attracted to one another by ELECTROSTATIC FORCES. These forces are governed by COULOMB’S LAW.

41 Electrostatic Forces COULOMB’S LAWAs ion charge increases, the attractive force _______________. As the distance between ions increases, the attractive force ________________. This idea is important and will come up many times in future discussions!

45 Empirical & Molecular FormulasA pure compound always consists of the same elements combined in the same proportions by weight. Therefore, we can express molecular composition as PERCENT BY WEIGHT Ethanol, C2H6O 52.13% C 13.15% H 34.72% O

46 Percent Composition Consider some of the family of nitrogen-oxygen compounds: NO2, nitrogen dioxide and closely related, NO, nitrogen monoxide (or nitric oxide) Chemistry of NO, nitrogen monoxide Structure of NO2

50 Determining Formulas In chemical analysis we determine the % by weight of each element in a given amount of pure compound and derive the EMPIRICAL or SIMPLEST formula. PROBLEM: A compound of B and H is 81.10% B. What is its empirical formula?

51 A compound of B and H is 81.10% B. What is its empirical formula?Because it contains only B and H, it must contain 18.90% H. In g of the compound there are g of B and g of H. Calculate the number of moles of each constitutent.

52 A compound of B and H is 81.10% B. What is its empirical formula?Calculate the number of moles of each element in g of sample.

53 A compound of B and H is 81.10% B. What is its empirical formula?Now, recognize that atoms combine in the ratio of small whole numbers. 1 atom B + 3 atoms H --> 1 molecule BH3 or 1 mol B atoms + 3 mol H atoms ---> mol BH3 molecules Find the ratio of moles of elements in the compound.

54 A compound of B and H is 81.10% B. What is its empirical formula?Take the ratio of moles of B and H. Always divide by the smaller number. But we need a whole number ratio. 2.5 mol H/1.0 mol B = 5 mol H to 2 mol B EMPIRICAL FORMULA = B2H5

55 A compound of B and H is 81. 10% B. Its empirical formula is B2H5A compound of B and H is 81.10% B. Its empirical formula is B2H5. What is its molecular formula? Is the molecular formula B2H5, B4H10, B6H15, B8H20, etc.? B2H6 is one example of this class of compounds. B2H6

56 A compound of B and H is 81. 10% B. Its empirical formula is B2H5A compound of B and H is 81.10% B. Its empirical formula is B2H5. What is its molecular formula? We need to do an EXPERIMENT to find the MOLAR MASS. Here experiment gives 53.3 g/mol Compare with the mass of B2H5 = g/unit Find the ratio of these masses. Molecular formula = B4H10

57 Determine the formula of a compound of Sn and I using the following data.Reaction of Sn and I2 is done using excess Sn. Mass of Sn in the beginning = g Mass of iodine (I2) used = g Mass of Sn remaining = g See p. 104

58 Tin and Iodine CompoundFind the mass of Sn that combined with g I2. Mass of Sn initially = g Mass of Sn recovered = g Mass of Sn used = g Find moles of Sn used:

59 Tin and Iodine CompoundNow find the number of moles of I2 that combined with 3.83 x 10-3 mol Sn. Mass of I2 used was g. How many mol of iodine atoms? = x 10-2 mol I atoms
