1. Mole Conversion (stoichiometry) Performance Task
Purpose: Write the purpose after completing the lab.
Procedure: Conduct appropriate measurements and
calculations.
Data: Write each question. Record measurements and show all
calculations. Clearly label your answers with appropriate units.
Aluminum
1.What is the mass of one mole of aluminum?
2.What is the mass of an aluminum can?
3.Compare the mass of the aluminum can and one mole of
aluminum. Does the aluminum can contain more than, less
than or equal to one mole of aluminum?
4.How many moles of aluminum are in one aluminum can?
5.How many atoms of aluminum are in one aluminum can?
6.How many cans would you need to have one mole of
aluminum?
Sodium
1.What is the molar mass of sodium?
2.How many mg of sodium is in one serving of Frosted Flakes?
3.How many g of sodium are in one serving of Frosted Flakes?
4.How many moles of sodium are in one serving of Frosted
Flakes?
5.Extension: Healthy American adults should reduce their
sodium intake to no more than 2400 milligrams per day. This is
about 1¼ teaspoons of table salt (sodium chloride NaCl).
If 1 teaspoon salt = 2000 mg sodium, how many teaspoons
of salt would you need to get a mole of sodium?
Conclusion: Write a summary of your purpose, procedure, and
results. What did you learn from conducting these calculations?
