Atomic Mass
- The mass of an atom expressed relative to C-12

Actual mass of C-12 is 1.9927 X 10
-23
grams not convenient
Relative mass = 12 amu
Example:
Person Actual Weight Relative Weight
1 100 lbs 8 amu
2 150 lbs 12 amu
3 200 lbs 16 amu
-better number (not as small) but still not useful since we
cant use just 1 atom
Isotope Percentage Mass of Isotope
Cu-63 69.17 62.929599 amu
Cu-65 30.83 64.927793 amu

What is the average weighted atomic
mass of sodium?
Avogadros Number - 6.022 x 10
23

-The number of atoms contained in the gram atomic mass
of an element
-more useful but ugly number again (too large)

Mole
- The amount of substance containing Avogadros
number of particles
-solves the problem useful quantity of substance
without ugly number


1 mole = 6.022 x 10
23
= Atomic Mass (g)

Ex 1. How many moles are in 24.7 g of nitrogen

Ex 2. How many atoms are in 2.1 moles of carbon

Ex 3. Determine the mass of 2.41 X 10
24
atoms of
magnesium
