3. Key Terms

MoleThe SI unit for amount of substance; contains exactly 6.022 × 10²³ particles.
Avogadro's Number6.022 × 10²³ — the number of particles in one mole of a substance.
Molar MassThe mass of one mole of a substance, measured in g/mol.
Limiting ReagentThe reactant that is completely consumed first, limiting the amount of product formed.
Empirical FormulaThe simplest whole-number ratio of atoms in a compound.
Molecular FormulaThe actual number of atoms of each element in a molecule of a compound.
