Using chiral perturbation theory and the large-$N_c$ expansion, we obtain expressions for the $\eta'$ mass and $\eta - \eta'$ mixing in terms of low-energy chiral Lagrangian parameters. This is accomplished through an intermediate step of `matching' the topological susceptibility in the large-$N_c$ and chiral Lagrangian descriptions. By inserting the values of well-measured parameters we obtain predictions involving the the second order parameters $L_6,L_7$ and $L_8$. The prediction for $L_6$ is quite restrictive even after allowing for $1/ N_c$ corrections.
