LT 4.1 Types of Elements
_____LT 4.1 I can identify reactants and products in a chemical equation
2H2 + O2 2H2O
1. What are the reactants in the chemical equation above? a.
2H2 + O2
2. Explain your answer to #1. a. Any substance listed on the left hand side of an chemical equation is considered a reactant
3. In humans, glucose combines with oxygen to product carbon dioxide and water according to the chemical reaction below:
C: ___4______
O: _____8____
3. In question #1, what is the number 4 called and what does it mean/tell you? a. In question 1, the number 4 is called the coefficient. The coefficient tells you the number of moles you have of the molecule on the right of the number. In this case, you have 4 moles of CO2
3H2 + N2 2NH3
a. b. c. d. 5g 10 g 20 g 40 g
2. Explain how you chose your answer above. a. The law of conservation of mass states that the mass of the reactants is equal to the mass of the products. Therefore, the total mass of the products must be the same as the mass of the reactants. b. *NOTE: The total number of atoms in the reactants must also be the same
3. What does the conservation of matter tell us about a chemical reaction? a. The total number of elements in the reactants must equal the total number of elements in the products. This is how we are able to balance equations.
Fe + O2 Fe2O3
If the mass of the rust is 10,000 g and the pipe weighed 8,200 g, how much oxygen reacted with the pipe? How do you know? a. There would be 800g of oxygen that reacted with the pipe because 8,200g and 800g of oxygen would add up to a total of 10,000g
2. Why do chemists use the unit of a mole instead of a dozen? a. Atoms are very tiny. A mole is a very large number and is useful in counting large quantities of atoms.
3. How is Avogadros number defined? a. The number of atoms in 14.01 grams of Nitrogen b. The number of atoms in 12.01 grams of Carbon c. The number of atoms in 12.01 grams of Nitrogen d. Both a and b e. Both a, b and c 4. Explain your answer above a. Avagadro came up with the number for a mole by taking the mass of 1 gram of carbon which weighs 12.01 grams.
2. Which would you rather have, 1 mole of Hot Cheetos, or 6 x 1023 Hot Cheetos? Why? a. Answer may vary. Know that 1 mole = 6.02 x1023 There fore the amount is about the same. 1 exact mole would be more hot Cheetos than 6 x 1023
3. Write Avogadros number as two conversion factors. a. 6.02 x 1023 any substance = 1 mole b. 6 x 1023 of hydrogen = 1 g/mole (1g/mol is taken from the atomic mass of the periodic table)
2. You are given two cups. In cup A, there is 1 mole of water. In cup B, there are 18 g of water. Which cup has more water? Explain your answer. a. The cups of water are the same because 1 mole of water has a mass of 18 grams. This is true because if I add the molar mass of water, it will add up to 18 grams.
NOTE: For LT 4.10-4.12 Instead of setting up a T-chart for dimensional analysis, you can use this instead:
2. The average adult can breathe in 16 g of O2 in one breath. How many moles of O2 can they breathe in?
3. You just aced a test in a college class and your professor gives you two choices for a reward. You can either have a pencil made out of 2 moles of pure Silver (Ag) or a pencil made out of 210 g of pure Silver (Ag). Which one would you rather have? (Assume the molar mass of Silver to be 110 g/mol) a. Assuming I love silver and want to make money I would take the 2 moles of silver because 2 moles of silver has a greater mass than 210g of silver. (* Be sure to show work and know how to calculate)
2. The average adult can breathe in 12 x 1023 molecules of O2 in one breath. How many moles of O2 can they breathe in? a. Set up t-chart for dimensional analysis. b. 12x1023 atoms of O2 x 1mole/6.02x1023 atoms = _________________ moles of O2 3. You just won Royal of the Week and instead of getting a t-shirt, Wandera offers you two different prizes. You can either have 3 moles of a diamond or 24 x 1023 atoms of diamond. Remember, diamond is made out of pure Carbon. a. 18.06x1023 < 24 x 1023 atoms of diamond. I would rather have 24 x 1023 atoms of diamond than 3 moles of diamonds because I would get more diamonds
