Purpose: To use the mole concept in the lab Materials: small beakers, eye droppers, teaspoon, graduated cylinder, balance Chemicals: Sulfur powder, aluminum foil of various sizes, copper wire, magnesium wire, powdered carbon, sodium chloride, sucrose For the following problems: A. Write a brief description of your procedure B. Collect data, keeping in mind your use of significant digits in measurement C. Use conversion factors to solve the problems PROBLEMS: 1. Determine the number of atoms present in a level teaspoon of aluminum powder A. I. Mass Teaspoon II. Mass Powder and Teaspoon III. Subtract Mass of Teaspoon IV. Convert Mass to Moles V. Convert Moles to Atoms B. Mass of Teaspoon: 2.1g Mass of Teaspoon & Powder: 5.47g Mass of Powder Alone: 3.37g C. Mass to Atoms: 3.37g Al . 1 mol Al . 6.02 * 1023 Atoms Al = 2.03 * 1024 = 0.7524 * 1023 = 7.52 * 1022 atoms 1 26.98g Al 1 mol Al 2.698 * 101

Concluding Statement: 1 teaspoon of Al has 7.52 * 1022 Atoms 2. Determine how many atoms of zinc are present in a 2.00cm2 piece of zinc metal (you cannot cut the foil) A. I. Mass Zinc II. Mass to Moles III. Moles to Atoms IV. Proportion of Areas to Atoms B. Mass of Zinc: 0.541g Area of Zinc: 3cm x 3cm

C. Mass to Atoms: 5.41 * 10-1 g Zn . 1 mol Zn . 6.02 * 1023 Atoms Zn = 3.26 * 1023 = 0.4985 * 1022 = 4.99 * 1021 atoms 1 65.39g Zn 1 mol Zn 6.539 * 101 4.99 * 1021 atom = x atoms 9cm2 2cm2 9x = 4.99 * 1021 * 2.00 * 100 9x = 9.98 * 1021 x = 1.11 * 1021

Concluding Statement: A 2.00cm2 piece of Zinc has 1.11 * 1021 atoms.

3. Determine what length of copper wire needed to provide 2.00 mol of copper. A. I. Mass Copper II. Measure Length of Copper III. Mass to Moles IV. Proportion of Moles to Length B. Mass of Copper: 1.608g Length of Copper: 13.0cm C.

Concluding Statement: 2.00 moles of copper wire would be about 1027.67cm long
