Q

What are compounds?

A

Compounds are made of two or more elements chemically combined. The properties of the compiunds can be different from the elements that form them

Q

Give me an example of elements that form a compound

A

When you join Sodium and Chlorine to form Salt.
Reactive metal + poisonous gas = consumable salt

Q

What happens in mixtures?

A

Elements and compounds bond with each other. However, it is a physical bond. They are not chemically bonded and retain their individual properties

Q

What are the two types of mixtures?

A
  • Homogeneous: uniform composition and properties (salt + water)
  • Heterogeneous: non-uniform composition. It has visibly different substances (sand + water)

Q

why is the conversion of solid to liquid an endothermic reaction?

A

Endothermic reactions are the ones absorb energy from the surroundings. The jump from solid to liquid at a molecular level makes the particles move faster (have more kinetic energy) so energy is needed to so this shift.

Q

What is needed to break bonds?

A

Energy is always needed to overcome the forces of attraction between the particles. This breaking happens when there is a chenge of state (eg. solid - liquid - gas)

Q

What happens during chemical reactions?

A

As atoms cannot be created or destroyed, they are redistributed during a chemical reaction. Therefore, the reaction must be balanced, there should be equal amounts of atoms in each side of a written equation.

Q

What are moles?

A

Moles are a unit for measurment used to measure the amount of atoms in a particle.
As atoms are too small to count, moles are used.

16
Q

Determine the molar ratios in the following equation: 2H2 + O2 = 2H20

A
  • O2:H2O - 1:2, for every mol of oxygen reacted, 2 mols of water are produced
  • H2:H2O - 1:1, for every hydrogen reacted, a water molecule is produced
17
Q

What are the two types of formulas?

A
  • Molecular shows actual number of atoms (full version) C6H12O2
  • Empirical shows the simplified version C3H6O
18
Q

How do you find the empirical formula given the percentage composition?

A
  1. Check that the percentages sum up to 100
  2. Assuming that 100% = 100g, divide each percentage by its relatiove atomic mass to find the moles of each element ((n=m/M)
  3. divide the moles by the simplest integrer satio to get the number of atoms of each element in the empirical formula.
19
Q

How do you find the molecular formila given mass and the empirical formula?

A
  1. Calculate the molecular mass of the empirical formula
  2. Compare it (^) with the actual mass of the compound. Find the common ratio
  3. Multiplu the empirical formula with this ratio
20
Q

How is the percentage yield calculated?

A

Percentage yield= (experimental/ theoretical) x100
* Experimental yield: the yield produced in an experiement
* Theoretical yield: the yiel expected theoretically, assuming all the limiting reactant is converted into products

The yield gained in an experiment is often lower in an experiment due to errors with method

21
Q

What are the limiting and excess reactants?

A
  • Limiting reactant is completely used during the reactant
  • Excess reactants are what remains after the reaction is finished
22
Q

How is the limiting reactant determined?

A
  1. Convert the masses to moles
  2. Divide the moles by the ratio coefficients
  3. The reactant with the smaller number is the limiting reactant
23
Q

What are gases?

Properties and two types

A

Gases do not have definite shape
* Ideal gases are gases without properties that interact with other molecules of gas
* Real gases are the ones found in nature with certain physical and chemical properties that are interacting with other gases (what happens in nature)

24
Q

Combined gas laws

A

(P1 V1)/T1 = (P2 V2)/T1
* P and V are inversely proportional (curved line)
* T and V or P are directly proportional (straight line)

25
Q

Ideal Gas Equation

In DB but wtvr

A

PV=nRT
* Pressure
* Volume
* Moles
* Universal Gas Constant (DB)
* Temperature

is it the difference in temperature or just the temperature?

26
Q

How are solutions made?

A

Adding a solute (salt) to a solvent (water)

27
Q

Different types of solutions

A
  • Diluted: more solvent
  • Concentrated: more solute
28
Q

How to convert from cm^3 to L?

only conversions needed are cm^3 - dm^3 and dm^3 to L but wtvr

A
  • cm^3 - dm^3 (:10^3)
  • dm^3 = L
29
Q

How to calculate a concentration?

A

Concentration= amount of solute/ volume of solution
* (mol or g)/ dm^3

30
Q

How to calculate density?

A

density (g/L or kg/m^3) = mass/ volume

31
Q

List five apparatus for volumetric analysis and explain their function.

A
  1. Beaker: large volume and open top. not for precise measurements
  2. Conical flask: used in titrations to swirl due to its shape
  3. measuring cylinder: long and thin used for precise measurements
  4. volumetric flask: measures specific measurements very precisely. Used to create standard solutions (-o)
  5. burette: used to deliver a precise volume during a titration
32
Q

What is a titration used for? Name the two main components.

A

A titration is used to find the concentration of an unkown solution with a solution with a known concentration
* The solution with the unkown concentration is called analyte
* The solution with the known concentration is called titrant
