= Introduction =&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In chemistry, you often need to connect the tiny world of atoms, molecules, ions, and formula units with quantities that you can actually measure in a laboratory. &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Molar mass&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is one of the most useful bridges between these two scales. It tells you the mass of one mole of a substance, while the [[English:Mole|mole]] gives you a fixed amount of particles. Together with a balanced [[English:Chemical equation|chemical equation]], these ideas let you calculate how much reactant is needed, how much product can form, how many particles are present, and what fraction of a compound&amp;#039;s mass comes from each element.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This aiMOOC is designed for &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Grades 9–10&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;. You will learn to read chemical formulas, use the [[English:Periodic table|periodic table]], calculate molar masses, convert among mass, moles, and particles, and solve introductory [[English:Stoichiometry|stoichiometry]] problems. You will also practice checking units, estimating whether an answer is reasonable, and explaining your reasoning clearly.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Periodic Table Of Elements.svg|700px|frameless|center]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The periodic table gives atomic-number and atomic-mass information for the elements. In school calculations, the listed standard atomic weight is commonly used as the numerical value of an element&amp;#039;s molar mass in grams per mole. Because standard atomic weights reflect isotope abundances, values for real samples can vary slightly in special cases.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{#ev:youtube|https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UL1jmJaUkaQ|500|center}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The video above gives a broad introduction to the mole, molar mass, balancing equations, and stoichiometric ratios. As you watch, note how every calculation connects a measurable quantity to an amount of particles.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
{{BR}}&lt;br /&gt;
== What Is a Mole? ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The [[English:Mole|mole]], symbol &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;mol&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, is the SI unit for [[English:Amount of substance|amount of substance]]. One mole contains exactly &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;6.02214076 × 10^23&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; specified elementary entities. These entities can be atoms, molecules, ions, electrons, or another clearly specified particle. This exact number is connected to the [[English:Avogadro constant|Avogadro constant]], N&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;A&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt; = 6.02214076 × 10^23 mol&amp;lt;sup&amp;gt;−1&amp;lt;/sup&amp;gt;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A mole works like a counting word. A dozen means 12 objects; a mole means 6.02214076 × 10^23 entities. The difference is that a mole is enormously larger because atoms and molecules are enormously small.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Avogadro&amp;#039;s number in scientific notation.svg|500px|frameless|center]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When solving school problems, you will usually use the rounded value &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;6.022 × 10^23 mol&amp;lt;sup&amp;gt;−1&amp;lt;/sup&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;. Keep enough significant figures to match the data in the problem.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Avogadro number cube visualisation.svg|500px|frameless|center]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This visualization helps you appreciate how large Avogadro&amp;#039;s number is. A mole is not a particular mass; the mass of one mole depends on which substance you are counting.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{BR}}&lt;br /&gt;
== Mole and Particle Conversions ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Use these relationships:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Number of particles = amount in moles × Avogadro constant&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
N = n × N&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;A&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Amount in moles = number of particles ÷ Avogadro constant&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
n = N ÷ N&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;A&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For example, 0.500 mol of carbon dioxide molecules contains:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
0.500 mol × 6.022 × 10^23 molecules/mol = &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;3.011 × 10^23 molecules&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Always identify the particle type. One mole of oxygen atoms is not the same sample as one mole of O&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt; molecules.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{BR}}&lt;br /&gt;
== The Mole in the SI System ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The modern SI defines the mole by fixing the Avogadro constant exactly. This makes the mole a precise counting unit rather than a unit tied to the mass of a particular sample.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Unit relations in the new SI planar.svg|500px|frameless|center]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For this course, the important practical idea is simple: a mole specifies a number of entities, while molar mass connects that amount to a measurable mass.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

= Understanding Molar Mass =&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{BR}}&lt;br /&gt;
== Definition and Unit ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[English:Molar mass|Molar mass]], symbol &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;M&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, is mass divided by amount of substance. In school chemistry it is usually expressed in &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;grams per mole&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; or &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;g/mol&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For an element, the molar mass in g/mol is numerically equal to the standard atomic weight commonly shown on the periodic table. Useful approximate values include:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# [[English:Hydrogen|Hydrogen]]: H ≈ 1.008 g/mol&lt;br /&gt;
# [[English:Carbon|Carbon]]: C ≈ 12.011 g/mol&lt;br /&gt;
# [[English:Nitrogen|Nitrogen]]: N ≈ 14.007 g/mol&lt;br /&gt;
# [[English:Oxygen|Oxygen]]: O ≈ 15.999 g/mol&lt;br /&gt;
# [[English:Sodium|Sodium]]: Na ≈ 22.990 g/mol&lt;br /&gt;
# [[English:Chlorine|Chlorine]]: Cl ≈ 35.45 g/mol&lt;br /&gt;
# [[English:Calcium|Calcium]]: Ca ≈ 40.078 g/mol&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The exact precision you should use depends on the periodic table and data provided in your class.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{BR}}&lt;br /&gt;
== Molecules, Formula Units, and Chemical Formulas ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A chemical formula tells you how many atoms of each element are present in one particle or formula unit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In H&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;O, the subscript 2 means there are two hydrogen atoms for every one oxygen atom. In CaCl&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;, there is one calcium ion for every two chloride ions. In Ca(NO&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;3&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;)&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;, the outside subscript 2 multiplies the entire nitrate group, so the formula contains one Ca, two N, and six O atoms per formula unit.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Water molecule 3D.svg|450px|frameless|center]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The image above shows a water molecule. Its formula H&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;O tells you the atom ratio, while its molar mass tells you the mass of one mole of these molecules.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:NaCl crystal structure.png|500px|frameless|center]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Sodium chloride forms an ionic lattice rather than separate NaCl molecules. For ionic compounds, chemists commonly speak of &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;formula units&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;. The molar mass of NaCl is still found from its formula: one Na plus one Cl.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{BR}}&lt;br /&gt;
== How to Calculate Molar Mass ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Follow this method:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# Read the formula and count each type of atom.&lt;br /&gt;
# Find each element&amp;#039;s atomic mass on the periodic table.&lt;br /&gt;
# Multiply each atomic mass by the number of atoms of that element.&lt;br /&gt;
# Add the contributions.&lt;br /&gt;
# Write the final unit as g/mol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Example 1: Water, H&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;O&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hydrogen contribution: 2 × 1.008 = 2.016 g/mol&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Oxygen contribution: 1 × 15.999 = 15.999 g/mol&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
M(H&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;O) = 2.016 + 15.999 = &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;18.015 g/mol&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Example 2: Sodium chloride, NaCl&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
M(NaCl) = 22.990 + 35.45 = &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;58.44 g/mol&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Example 3: Calcium carbonate, CaCO&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;3&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
M(CaCO&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;3&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;) = 40.078 + 12.011 + 3 × 15.999&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
M(CaCO&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;3&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;) = &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;100.086 g/mol&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Example 4: Glucose, C&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;6&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;H&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;12&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;O&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;6&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
M(C&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;6&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;H&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;12&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;O&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;6&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;) = 6 × 12.011 + 12 × 1.008 + 6 × 15.999&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
M(C&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;6&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;H&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;12&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;O&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;6&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;) = &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;180.156 g/mol&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
This worked example shows how to obtain molar mass from a chemical formula and then use it to convert a measured mass into moles.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{BR}}&lt;br /&gt;
== Common Formula Mistakes ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Subscripts&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; are part of a substance&amp;#039;s chemical formula. Changing a subscript changes the substance. H&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;O and H&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;O&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt; are different compounds.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Coefficients&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; in front of formulas show how many particles or moles participate in a reaction. Changing a coefficient does not change the identity of the substance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Parentheses&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; matter. In (NH&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;4&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;)&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;CO&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;3&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;, the subscript 2 applies to both N and H inside the parentheses.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A good habit is to make a short atom-count table before multiplying atomic masses.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{BR}}&lt;br /&gt;
= Mass, Moles, and Particles =&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{BR}}&lt;br /&gt;
== The Mass-Mole Relationship ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The central equation is:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;n = m ÷ M&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
where:&lt;br /&gt;
n = amount of substance in mol,&lt;br /&gt;
m = mass in g,&lt;br /&gt;
M = molar mass in g/mol.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You can rearrange it to:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;m = n × M&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Example: How many moles are in 36.03 g of water?&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
n = 36.03 g ÷ 18.015 g/mol = &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;2.000 mol&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Notice how the grams cancel, leaving moles.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Example: What mass is 0.250 mol of NaCl?&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
m = 0.250 mol × 58.44 g/mol = &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;14.6 g NaCl&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; to three significant figures.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Analytical Balance.JPG|450px|frameless|center]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In a laboratory, a balance measures mass. Molar mass lets you convert that measured mass into an amount in moles.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{BR}}&lt;br /&gt;
== A Conversion Map ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You can organize many problems using this path:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;mass ⇄ moles ⇄ particles&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To move from mass to moles, divide by molar mass.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To move from moles to mass, multiply by molar mass.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To move from moles to particles, multiply by Avogadro&amp;#039;s constant.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To move from particles to moles, divide by Avogadro&amp;#039;s constant.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Example: How many molecules are in 9.01 g of water?&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
First convert mass to moles:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
9.01 g ÷ 18.015 g/mol ≈ 0.500 mol&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then convert moles to molecules:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
0.500 mol × 6.022 × 10^23 molecules/mol ≈ &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;3.01 × 10^23 molecules&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This two-step approach is safer than trying to memorize a separate formula for every possible conversion.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{BR}}&lt;br /&gt;
== Dimensional Analysis ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[English:Dimensional analysis|Dimensional analysis]] uses conversion factors so that unwanted units cancel. A conversion factor is a ratio equal to one, such as:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
18.015 g H&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;O / 1 mol H&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;O&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
or&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1 mol H&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;O / 18.015 g H&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;O&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Choose the orientation that cancels the unit you start with.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For example:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
9.01 g H&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;O × 1 mol H&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;O / 18.015 g H&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;O × 6.022 × 10^23 molecules / 1 mol H&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;O&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The units g and mol cancel, leaving molecules.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{BR}}&lt;br /&gt;
= Chemical Equations and Stoichiometry =&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{BR}}&lt;br /&gt;
== Why Equations Must Be Balanced ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A chemical equation represents a chemical reaction. Because atoms are rearranged rather than created or destroyed in ordinary chemical reactions, the number of atoms of each element must be the same on both sides.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For example:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;2 H&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt; + O&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt; → 2 H&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;O&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The coefficients 2 : 1 : 2 tell you that two moles of H&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt; react with one mole of O&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt; to form two moles of H&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;O.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{#ev:youtube|https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TUuABq95BBM|500|center}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When balancing equations, change &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;coefficients only&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;. Never change subscripts to make an equation balance, because doing so changes the chemical substances.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{BR}}&lt;br /&gt;
== Stoichiometric Ratios ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[English:Stoichiometry|Stoichiometry]] studies quantitative relationships among reactants and products. The coefficients in a balanced chemical equation provide mole ratios.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:IUPAC definition for stoichiometry.png|500px|frameless|center]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
From:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2 H&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt; + O&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt; → 2 H&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;O&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
you can write valid mole ratios such as:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2 mol H&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt; / 1 mol O&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2 mol H&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;O / 2 mol H&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2 mol H&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;O / 1 mol O&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The ratio you choose depends on which substance you know and which substance you want to find.&lt;br /&gt;

== Solving a Mass-to-Mass Stoichiometry Problem ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Use this reliable sequence:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# Balance the chemical equation.&lt;br /&gt;
# Convert the given mass to moles.&lt;br /&gt;
# Use the coefficient ratio to convert moles of the known substance to moles of the wanted substance.&lt;br /&gt;
# Convert the wanted moles to the required unit, often grams.&lt;br /&gt;
# Check units, significant figures, and whether the result is reasonable.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Example: What mass of water forms from 4.032 g of H&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;, assuming excess O&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;?&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Balanced equation:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
2 H&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt; + O&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt; → 2 H&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;O&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
M(H&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;) = 2.016 g/mol&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
M(H&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;O) = 18.015 g/mol&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Step 1: 4.032 g H&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt; ÷ 2.016 g/mol = 2.000 mol H&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Step 2: The coefficient ratio H&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt; : H&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;O is 2 : 2, so 2.000 mol H&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt; forms 2.000 mol H&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;O.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Step 3: 2.000 mol H&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;O × 18.015 g/mol = &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;36.03 g H&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;O&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;

This video extends the same process to mass-to-mass calculations and introduces the idea of a limiting reactant.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{BR}}&lt;br /&gt;
== Limiting Reactant as an Extension ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When two reactants are both given, one may run out first. The reactant that is consumed first is the [[English:Limiting reagent|limiting reactant]], and it determines the maximum amount of product that can form.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A safe method is to calculate how much product each reactant could form separately. The reactant that predicts the smaller amount of product is limiting.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For Grades 9–10, focus first on understanding the logic rather than memorizing a shortcut. A balanced equation tells you the required mole ratio; the actual starting amounts tell you whether one reactant is in excess.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{BR}}&lt;br /&gt;
= Percent Composition and Formula Calculations =&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{BR}}&lt;br /&gt;
== Percent Composition by Mass ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The percent by mass of an element in a compound is:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;percent by mass = element&amp;#039;s mass contribution in one mole ÷ compound molar mass × 100%&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For water:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hydrogen contribution = 2.016 g/mol&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
M(H&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;O) = 18.015 g/mol&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hydrogen percent = 2.016 ÷ 18.015 × 100% ≈ &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;11.19%&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Oxygen percent = 15.999 ÷ 18.015 × 100% ≈ &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;88.81%&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The percentages should add to about 100%, allowing for rounding.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{BR}}&lt;br /&gt;
== Empirical Formula as an Enrichment Topic ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
An [[English:Empirical formula|empirical formula]] gives the simplest whole-number ratio of atoms in a compound. If percent composition is given, you can imagine a 100 g sample so each percentage becomes the same number of grams. Then:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# Convert each element&amp;#039;s mass to moles.&lt;br /&gt;
# Divide all mole amounts by the smallest.&lt;br /&gt;
# Convert the ratios to small whole numbers if necessary.&lt;br /&gt;
# Write the empirical formula.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
This is an extension of the same central idea: &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;mass → moles → particle ratio&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{BR}}&lt;br /&gt;
= Concentration Calculations =&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{BR}}&lt;br /&gt;
== Amount Concentration ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In solution chemistry, [[English:Molar concentration|amount concentration]] is often written:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;c = n ÷ V&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
where c is concentration in mol/L, n is amount in mol, and V is solution volume in liters.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If 0.250 mol of NaCl is dissolved to make 0.500 L of solution:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
c = 0.250 mol ÷ 0.500 L = &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;0.500 mol/L&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You can combine this with molar mass. For example, if a problem gives mass instead of moles, first calculate n = m ÷ M, then use c = n ÷ V.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{BR}}&lt;br /&gt;
= Significant Figures, Units, and Reasonableness =&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{BR}}&lt;br /&gt;
== Units as a Built-In Error Check ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Units are not decoration. They help you decide which operation to use.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you calculate:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
g ÷ g/mol&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
the grams cancel and mol remains.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you calculate:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
mol × g/mol&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
moles cancel and grams remains.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If your final unit does not match what the question asks for, revisit your conversion factors.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{BR}}&lt;br /&gt;
== Significant Figures ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Measured quantities have limited precision. A common school rule is that multiplication and division results should usually have the same number of significant figures as the least precise measured input. Exact counting numbers and defined conversion factors do not limit significant figures.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Do not round too early. Keep extra digits during intermediate steps and round once at the end.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{BR}}&lt;br /&gt;
== Estimation and Reasonableness ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Before trusting a calculator result, estimate.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If water has a molar mass of about 18 g/mol, then 36 g should be about 2 mol. A result of 0.002 mol or 2000 mol would clearly signal an error.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If NaCl has a molar mass near 58 g/mol, then half a mole should have a mass near 29 g.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Estimation catches misplaced decimal points, inverted conversion factors, and incorrect powers of ten.&lt;br /&gt;

How many moles are in 29.22 g NaCl?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
n = 29.22 g ÷ 58.44 g/mol = &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;0.5000 mol&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
N = 0.250 mol × 6.022 × 10^23 formula units/mol&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
N ≈ &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;1.51 × 10^23 formula units&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
M(CO&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;) = 12.011 + 2 × 15.999 = 44.009 g/mol&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
n = 44.0 g ÷ 44.009 g/mol ≈ 1.00 mol&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
N ≈ 1.00 mol × 6.022 × 10^23 molecules/mol&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

A mole contains exactly { 6.02214076 × 10^23 } specified entities. Molar mass is usually expressed in { grams per mole } in school chemistry. To calculate a compound&amp;#039;s molar mass, you add the atomic-mass contributions from { every element } in its formula. To convert grams to moles, you divide the sample mass by the { molar mass }. To convert moles to a number of particles, you multiply by the { Avogadro constant }. A chemical equation must be { balanced } before its coefficients are used as mole ratios. In a stoichiometry calculation, the balanced coefficients provide the { mole ratio } between substances. Checking units and making an estimate help you judge whether a result is { reasonable }.&lt;br /&gt;
