1.. Flashcards
homogeneous mixture
all components are the same phase.
- uniform composition and uniform properties
Heterogeneous mixture
the components are in different phases
- non-uniform composition
- varying properties
solid to liquid
melting
liquid to solid
freezing
liquid to gas
vaporization
gas to liquid

sublimation
convert number of particles to moles
divide by Avogadro number (6.02x10^23)
convert moles to number of particles
x Avogadro number (6.02x10^23)
triangle for converting between mass, moles and molar mass
How to find Empirical Formula
the simplest whole number ration of atoms/amount of each element present ina compound
1. fint the amount (mol) of each atom
2. find the smallest whole number ratios
3. use these values as subscripts
percentage composition by mass
mass of element in compound x 100/ Molar mass of compount
finding limiting reactant
- find the moles of both reactants
- divide each amount by the respective reactant’s coefficient
- the lowest value us the limiting reactant
calculate theoretical yield
- is what theoretically be produces under ideal conditions
1. determine the limiting reactant
2. use the molar ratios of the limiting rectant and the product to find the moles of the product
3. convert moles of product into mass
