Where:
n=number of atoms of element
Example: Find the percentage of Sodium in Sodium Chloride ()
Steps:
1. Find the atomic mass units (amu) of each element in the compound (on periodic table)
= 22.98977 amu
Cl= 35.453 amu
2. Find molecular weight by adding together the atomic mass units of each element

3. Calculate the percentage of Sodium by using the percent composition formula above
% = 

The Mole Concept:
Sections 3.1, 3.2, 3.4, 3.5 in text
Mole (mol)- an amount of substance that contains any elementary entity (atoms,
molecules, etc.) as there are atoms in exactly 0.012 kilograms (12 grams) of carbon-12
o Avogadro’s number- 6.022 x  the number of atoms found in carbon-12
Amount” in the definition
*KNOW FOR THE TEST: One mole = 6.022 x  molecules or atoms
ex: 6.022 x  molecules = 1 mole
o 12.01 amu = Carbon = 12.01 grams per mol (g/mol)
o “amu” (atomic weight) = “grams per mole” (g/mol)
Molar mass- mass in grams of a substance

Mass to mole conversions
Example 1: If there are 0.375 moles of Argon… how many grams of Argon is this?
Steps:
1. Find Argon on the periodic table to find molar mass
Molar mass of Argon = 39.948g
2. Use conversion equation to convert moles to grams
