Atomic masses

• L.O.
• Define the terms relative isotopic mass and
• relative atomic mass, based on the 12C scale
• Calculate the relative atomic mass of an
• element given the relative abundances of its
• isotopes
• Use the terms relative molecular mass and
• relative formula mass and calculate values
• from relative atomic masses.

4

• Prep-work
• Read on the mole .
• Write down definitions of NA , mole and molar
  mass.

5
Relative isotopic mass is the mass of an atom of
an isotope compared with one-twelfth of the mass
of an atom of carbon-12
6
Relative atomic mass, Ar, is the weighted mean
mass of an atom of an element compared with
one-twelfth of the mass of an atom of carbon-12

• A sample of Boron, Ar(B) 10.85, was analysed. It
  was found it contained 19.5 10B and another
  isotope. Calculate the mass number of the other
  isotope

Worked examples

• What is the relative atomic mass (Ar) of a
  mixture of 90 hydrogen-1 (1H) and 10 hydrogen-2
  (2H)?
• What is the relative atomic mass (Ar) of a
  mixture of 75 chlorine-35 (35Cl) and 25
  chlorine-37 (37Cl)?
• Calculate the Ar of
• 43 16O and 5718O
• 14 40Ca, 26 42Ca and 60 46Ca

• Relative molecular mass, Mr, is the weighted mean
  mass of a molecule compared with one-twelfth of
  the mass of an atom of carbon-12

13
Relative molecular mass, Mr

• This is the total mass of a given molecule
  calculated by adding together the relative atomic
  masses (Ar) of all of its atoms
• Worked examples
• Mr of H2O 2x 1 (H) 1x 16 (O) 18
• Mr of HCl 1x 1 (H) 1x 35.5 36.5

14
Work out the relative molecular masses of these
molecules

• CH4
• CO2
• HBr
• H2SO4
• CH2Cl2

15
Work out the relative molecular masses of these
molecules

• CH4
• CO2
• HBr
• H2SO4
• CH2Cl2

16
Relative formula mass

• Very large compounds such as NaCl and SiO2 are
  too big to work out the mass of the whole
  structure, so we only work out the basic unit
• Worked examples NaCl and SiO2

17

• Relative formula mass is the weighted mean mass
  of a formula unit compared with one-twelfth of
  the mass of an atom of carbon-12
