1. stoichemetric relationships! Flashcards
what is a homogenous mixture
uniform composition AND properties
heterogenous do NOT
given differing boiling points in a mixture, how would they be seperated?
fractional distillation
eg air
how to determine ionic equation
- write full chem eqn
- break down compounds into ions
- cancel repeated ions on each side
boiling vs evaporation?
boiling at specific temp – vapour pressure reaches external atmospheric pressure
evaporation only at surface + at temps BELOW boiling point
when given a graph of state change hwo to explain the flat parts (no change in temp)
no increase in kinetic energy or temp bc ALL THE ENERGY GOES INTO BREAKING BONDS
define the avogadro constant!
the number of particles equivalent to the RELATIVE ATOMIC MASS / MOLECULAR MASS of a substance in grams
what is the value of the avogardo constant
6.02 x 10^23 g/mol
what is avogadros constant used for
number of atoms / particles
define molar mass
one mole of a substance = same number of atoms in 12g of 12C
define relative atomic mass
weighted average mass of one atom compared to one twelfth of the mass of a carbon-12 atom
define relative isotopic mass
mass of a particular atom of an isotope compared to 1/12th the mass of a 12C atom
define isotopes
atoms of the same element with different number of neutrons
define relative atomic mass
weighted average mass of a molecule compared to 1/12th the mass of a 12C atom
define empirical formula
the simplest whole number ratio of the atoms of each element present in one molecule/formula unit of the compound
define percentage yield
how much of a particular product you get from reactants compared to max theoretical amt
actual vs theoretical yield
actual: mol/mass obtained experimentally
theoretical: mol/mass obtained thru mass creation
