Week 7
Introductory Message
For the facilitator:

This hybrid module was collaboratively designed, developed and evaluated by the
Development and Quality Assurance Teams of SDO TAPAT to assist you in helping the
learners meet the standards set by the K to 12 Curriculum while overcoming their personal,
social, and economic constraints in schooling.

As a facilitator, you are expected to orient the learners on how to use this module. You
also need to keep track of the learners' progress while allowing them to manage their own
learning. Furthermore, you are expected to encourage and assist the learners as they do
the tasks included in the hybrid module.

For the learner:

This hybrid module was designed to provide you with fun and meaningful opportunities for
guided and independent learning at your own pace and time. You will be helped to process
the contents of the learning resource while being an active learner.

The following are some reminders in using this hybrid module:

1. Use the module with care. Do not put unnecessary mark/s on any part of the hybrid
module. Use a separate sheet of paper in answering the exercises.

2. Don’t forget to answer Let’s Try before moving on to the other activities included in the
hybrid module.

3. Read the instruction carefully before doing each task.

4. Observe honesty and integrity in doing the tasks and in checking your answers.

5. Finish the task at hand before proceeding to the next.

6. Return this hybrid module to your teacher/facilitator once you are through with it.

If you encounter any difficulty in answering the tasks in this module, do not hesitate to
consult your teacher or facilitator. Always bear in mind that you are not alone.

We hope that through this material, you will experience meaningful learning and gain deep
understanding of the relevant competencies. You can do it!

 Let’s Learn

In actual life situations, pieces of matter are quantified by finding the mass or
by counting. Market vendors for instance, would rather sell mongo seeds by getting
the mass and eggs by counting. The option of quantifying goods is determined by
convenience. It is more appropriate to count the number off eggs rather than get their
mass. To measure these quantities, mass units such as kilogram or gram, or
counting units such as dozen or case are being used.

After going through this hybrid module, you are expected to:
Use the mole concept to express mass of substances; (S9MT-IIi-19)

1. differentiate molecular unit from formula unit and compute for the
molecular mass.

2. define mole and calculate for the number of moles of given compounds.

3. compute for the number of particles given the mass or no. of moles.

4. convert number of moles, mass, and number of particles from one

unknown to another.

Lesson

1 What’s in a Mole?

In the laboratory, the chemists measure out a chemical substance and react
it with another substance to form the desired amount of new product. In this case,
chemists want to know the number of atoms, ions, or molecules because these are
the ones that react with each other. But these things are too small and too many to
count individually so chemists use a unit called MOLE to count them by weighing.

5
 Let’s Recall

In the previous module you learned that the subscript in a formula of a

compound represents the number of atoms of the representative elements in the
compound.
Knowing the type of bond formed by some compounds will help us to
differentiate formula mass from molecular mass.
Formula mass is used for compounds that are made up of ions and have
primarily ionic bonding and molecular mass is used for compounds that are
composed of molecules and have primarily covalent bonding.

Activity 1

Directions: Identify whether the bond formed by the following compound is an

ionic or covalent. Answer the guide questions below.

________________1. NaCl (Table salt)

________________2. O2 (Oxygen gas)
________________3. CaCO3 (Calcium Carbonate)
________________4. C12 H22 O11 (Table sugar)
________________5. Na Br (Sodium bromide)

Guide Question:
1.What is ionic bond?
2.What is covalent bond?
3.How did you classify the above compounds?

 Let’s Elaborate

Formula mass or molecular mass is defined as the mass in grams of a mole

of a substance. It is the sum of the atomic masses (in amu) in the molecule. One
mole of a substance is equal to its formula mass expressed in grams.

Example:

Calculate the formula mass of Glucose (C6 H12 O6)

In the formula (C6 H12 O6)there are 6 atoms of Carbon, 12 atoms of Hydrogen,
and 6 atoms of Oxygen. The atomic mass of each element is taken from the periodic
table and rounded off to the nearest tenths. The formula mass is calculated as
follows:

No. of atoms Atomic Mass Total Mass

In the formula for each element
12.0 amu
6 mol C X = 72.0 amu
Mol C

1.0 amu
12 mol H X = 12.0 amu
Mol H

16.0 amu
6 mol O X = 96.0 amu
Mol O

Formula mass of 1 𝐂𝟔 𝐇𝟏𝟐 𝐎𝟔 = 180 .0 amu

Step in solving for the formula mass of a compound

1.Look for the atomic mass from the periodic table of elements
2.Multiply it by the number of atoms of the element
3.Divide it by one mole
4.Add the total mass of each element

Mole is used to deal with very large numbers. In the SI system, the mole is the
amount of substance that contains as many entities as there are in exactly 12g
carbon -12. The number of atoms in 12g carbon-12 is experimentally determined to
be 6.02 x1023. This is called Avogadro’s number.

A pair is equal 2 two entities, a dozen is equal to 12 entities and a ream is equal
to 500 entities. But have you ever questioned yourself the number of particles
present in a gold bar or the particles present in water?
Elements and compounds are made up of tiny particles called atoms. Atoms are
too small and too many to count individually so chemists use a unit called mole to
count them by weighing. If you put together 6.02 x1023 basketballs, it will be as big
as the Earth or if you have 6.02 x1023 rice grains, it would cover the land masses of
7
the Earth to a depth of 75 meters. Can you guess how many particles are equal to
one mole?
Now that you have an idea on how big Avogadro’s number is, let us try to visualize
the number of particles in a given sample.

Using dimensional analysis approach, you will be able to convert the number of
moles to its equivalent amount in the number of particles.

1. How many molecules are there in 4.0 moles of CO2 ?

6.02 x 1023 molecules CO2

4.0 moles CO2 X = 2.41 x 𝟏𝟎 𝟐𝟒 molecules 𝐂𝐎𝟐
1 mole CO2

2. How many moles of Mg are in 1.25 x 1023 atoms?

1 mole Mg
1.25 x 1023 atoms X = 2 .08 moles Mg
6.02 x 1023 atoms

You have observed in the above example that although you have the same
number of items, different objects will have different masses. In the same way, one
mole of different substances always contains 6.02 x1023 particles but each of these
substances has a different mass.

Consult a periodic table of elements. Look for the atomic mass of hydrogen,
oxygen, carbon etc. You will observe that each element has its own mass different
from the others in the same way that different compounds have different masses.
Atomic mass of the element is the same numerical value with its molar mass. Molar
mass is the mass in grams of one mole of a compound.

8
Molar mass of some common compounds.
Compound Chemical Mass(g) Molar Mass
Formula (g/mol)
Water H2 O 18.02 18.02g/mol
Table Sugar C12 H22 O11 342.34 342.34g/mol

Sample Calculation

H2 O C12 H22 O11

1 x 16.00 g/mol = 16.00 g/mol 11 x 16.00g/mol =176.00 g/mol

2 x 1.01 g/mol = 2.02 g/mol 22 x 1.01g/mol = 22.22 g/mol

18 .02 g/mol 12 x 12.01g/mol = 144.12 g/mol

342.34 g/mol

Steps on how to compute the Molar Mass of a Compound

1. Look for the atomic mass of each element

2. Multiply its atomic mass to the subscript of each element
3. Add the product of each element
4. The sum is the molar mass of the component

Activity 4:

You have learned the connections and relationships among the mass, number
of moles and the molar mass of some substances, you can easily figure out its
amount in terms of its mass, the number of moles, and the number of particles.
The diagram demonstrates the relationship among the mass, number of particles,
number of moles of the different substances.

Number of
Molar mass Mole X Avogadro’s Number

/ molar mass X Avogadro’s Number Number of

Mass particles
/Avogadro’s Number X molar mass

The previous diagram illustrates that:

Number of moles = Mass ÷ Molar mass

Mass = Number of moles × molar mass
Number of particles = Number of moles × Avogadro’s number
