GRANDMA MOLE'S TOLL HOLE CHOCOLATE CHIP MOLE COOKIES
This mole activity is designed for chemistry students who want to have fun learning the mole while working in a teacher supervised food-prep classroom.
Ingredients:
0.200 moles of White Sucrose 
0.200 moles of Brown Sucrose 
118.295 cm^3 Butter (stick) 
2.5 ml or 0.5 tsp. of a substance that smells like Veratraldehyde
1 large CaCO_3 Protective Chambers (Use the albumen and protein filling only)
1 1/8 cups Gluten substitute 
0.0620 mol sodium chloride
0.0399 mol sodium bicarbonate 
1 cup of a chunky substance that smells like Cacao

Warning:
1) USE ONLY GROCERY STORE BOUGHT INGREDIENTS. NEVER USE ANYTHING FROM THE CHEMISTRY CLASSROOM OR CHEMICAL STORAGE AREA TO MAKE THESE COOKIES.
2) NEVER BRING, EAT, OR WORK WITH FOOD IN THE CHEMISTRY LAB.
3) NEVER USE CHEMISTRY LAB EQUIPMENT FOR MAKING FOOD. ONLY USE CLEAN MEASURING DEVICES FROM THE KITCHEN OR FOOD-PREP CLASSROOM.
Pre-Lab Classwork: 
20 marks	Before you can make the cookies, you must complete the following on a separate piece of paper and hand it in.  Show all calculations and include units.  
A) Use a reference to find the formula for sucrose, sodium chloride, and sodium bicarbonate.
B) Identify the proper IUPAC chemical name for sodium bicarbonate.
C) Use a reference to identify the common names for all of the ingredients except butter.
D) Convert moles of brown and white sucrose to grams and then into cups. 1 cup of sucrose = 205.404 g 
E) Convert moles of sodium chloride to grams and then to tsp. 1 tsp of sodium chloride = 7.25g
F) Convert moles of sodium bicarbonate to grams and then to tsp. 1 tsp of sodium bicarbonate = 6.70g
G) Determine what Kelvin’s are. Convert 463.71 Kelvin to Celsius and then to Fahrenheit to solve for oven setting 
[(K-273.15) X 9/5] +32 = ^0F
Procedure:
A) Using a wrapped stick of butter, carefully find the width and height (in cm) at the end of the stick. Use the formula, volume = length X width X height, and solve for the length of butter that you need. Measure that length, cut the stick of butter, and soften.
2 marks 	Record your calculation on a piece of paper with group members’ names and hand it in.
B) Beat softened butter, brown sugar, white sugar, vanilla and egg until creamy.
C) In a separate bowl, mix flour, baking soda and salt.
D) Gradually add the flour mixture into the creamy mixture while beating.
E) Stir in chocolate chips evenly throughout the dough.
F) Place spoonfuls of dough onto a cookie sheet. (smaller is better)
G) Bake at 463.71 KELVIN or ____ ^oF for 8 to 10 minutes.
3 marks	Put one cookie on a piece of paper with group members’ names and hand it in.
H) Eat the cookies when they are cool and thank the teacher for doing this awesome lab!
