Scientists can observe this byusing a glass smoke chamber.● Smoke consists of large particles thatcan be seen using a microscope.● In the smoke chamber, the smokeparticles move around randomly dueto collisions with air particles.3 Diffusionsabcdeftapecardboardfine stainless steel wiremagnifying glass1/ 2 mm scaleview through magnifyingglassg oil droph waxed sticksi wax-coated trayj lycopodium powderk oil patchl microscopem removable lidn windowo lampp glass rod for converginglightq glass smoke chamberr glass diffusion tubes liquid bromine capsulet rubber stopperu tapv bromine capsulew rubber tubex point at which pressure isapplied to break capsuleis the spreading out of onesubstance through another due to therandom motion of particles.● The diagram illustrates how scientistsuse a diffusion tube to observe this.Initially the color of the substance isstrongest at the bottom of the tube.● After a period of time, as a result ofdiffusion, the particles of thesubstance mix with air particles, andthe color becomes uniform down thelength of the tube.© Diagram Visual Information Ltd.● Diffu sion20ATOMIC STRUCTUREKey wordsanodeAvogadro’sconstantelectrolysisFaraday constantmoleDetermination ofAvogadro’s constantDetermination of Avogadro’s constantaDefining Avogadro’sconstantcon stan t is the number ofparticles in a m ole of a substance.

Thenumber of atoms in a weighed sampleis then related to the current tocalculate Avogadro’s constant.cdIllustrating the Procedure© Diagram Visual Information Ltd.● Thediagram illustrates the electrolysisof copper sulfate. To calculateAvogadro’s constant, the researcherweighs the rod to be used as thean ode before submerging the twocopper rods in copper sulfate. Shethen connects the rods to a powersupply and an ammeter (aninstrument used to measure electriccurrent). She measures and recordsthe current at regular intervals andcalculates the average amperage (theunit of electric current).
Once sheturns off the current, she weighs theanode to see how much mass was lost.Using the figures for anode mass lost,average current, and duration of theelectrolysis, she calculates Avogadro’sconstant.efabcdefpower supply with ammeterrheostathardboard or wooden electrode holdercopper rod cathodecopper rod anodecopper sulfate solution21The moleATOMIC STRUCTUREKey words1 Defining a mole6.023 × 10 23 particles1 particle –x amuatomionmolaritymolemolecule1 Defining a molex grams● Because2 Moles of gas(71 g) Cl 2(44 g) CO2H2 (2 g)22.4 litersN2 (28 g)atom s, ion s, and m olecu leshave very small masses, it is impossibleto count or weigh them individually.
Asa result, scientists use m oles in achemical reaction.● A mole is the amount of substancethat contains as many elementaryentities (atoms, molecules, ions, anygroup of particles) as there are atomsin exactly 0.012 kilogram of carbon-12.This quantity is Avogadro’s constant(6.023 x 1023 mol-1).● The significance of this number is thatit scales the mass of a particle inatomic mass units (amu) exactly intograms (g).● Chemical equations usually imply thatthe quantities are in moles.2 Moles of gas● One(16 g) CH4O2 (32 g)3 Molaritymole of any gas occupies22.4 liters at standard temperature andpressure, (which is 0 º C andatmospheric pressure).● The diagram shows the mass in gramsof one mole of the following gases:chlorine ( Cl 2), carbon dioxide ( CO2),methane ( CH4 ), hydrogen ( H2),nitrogen ( N2), and oxygen ( O2).3 Molarity(127 g) FeCl 2(95 g) MgCl 2(233 g) BaSO4NaOH (40 g)1 literCa(NO3) 2 (164 g)KBr (119 g)is concerned with theconcentration of a solution.
