Elements and Compounds


elements combine together to make an almost limitless number of compounds the properties of the compound are totally different from the constituent elements

CHM 1045 Notes Dr. Palmer Graves

Formation of Water from Its Elements

Chemical Bonds
compounds are made of atoms held together by chemical bonds bonds are forces of attraction between atoms the bonding attraction comes from attractions between protons and electrons

Covalent Bonds: Molecules

Molecules result from a chemical bond between two or more atoms Covalent Bonds form when two atoms share electrons Example: H2 O, CO2 , C6H12O6

CHM 1045 Notes Dr. Palmer Graves

Chapter 3

Bond Types
two types of bonding - ionic and covalent ionic bonds electrons have been transferred between atoms oppositely charged ions that attract each other
metal atoms bonded to nonmetal atoms

covalent bonds result when two atoms share some of their electrons
nonmetal atoms bonded to nonmetal atoms

3.4 Calculate mass percent of an element in a compound. Use mass percent as a conversion factor. [Reading 3.8 Problems 65-73]

Formula Mass
the mass of an individual molecule or formula unit The mass is taken from the Periodic Table also known as molecular mass or molecular weight Add the masses of the atoms in a single molecule or formula unit mass of 1 molecule of H2O = 2(1.01 amu H) + 16.00 amu O = 18.02 amu

25

CHM 1045 Notes Dr. Palmer Graves

Chapter 3

Molar Mass of Compounds


the relative masses of molecules can be calculated from atomic masses Formula Mass = 1 molecule of H2O = 2(1.01 amu H) + 16.00 amu O = 18.02 amu since 1 mole of H2O contains 2 moles of H and 1 mole of O Molar Mass = 1 mole H2O = 2(1.01 g H) + 16.00 g O = 18.02 g so the Molar Mass of H2O is 18.02 g/mole

Example Find the number of CO2 molecules in 10.8 g of dry ice

Mass Percent as a Conversion Factor


the mass percent - mass of a constituent element in 100 g of the compound
CCl2F 2 is 58.64% Cl by mass thus, 100 g of CCl2F 2 contains 58.64 g Cl

this can be used as a conversion factor


100 g CCl2F2 : 58.64 g Cl

Example 3.14 Find the mass of table salt containing 2.4 g of Na


Given: Find: Concept Plan: 2.4 g Na, 39% Na g NaCl g Na g NaCl

Conversion Factors in Chemical Formulas


chemical formulas show the numbers of atoms and molecules or moles of atoms and moles of molecules these relationships can be used as conversion factors between amounts of constituent elements and molecules
like percent composition
