What is an element?
a substance made from one type of atom. It cannot be broken down into anything simpler by chemical means
What is an atomic number?
Number of protons in the nucleus of an atom
What is a mass number?
The number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom
What is an isotope?
Atoms of an element with different numbers of neutrons but the same number of protons
What is the Relative atomic mass? (Ar)
The mass of an atom of an element compared to the mass of an atom of a carbon. The relative atomic mass of carbon is defined as 12. This takes into account the abundance of all existing isotopes of that element.
What is the Relative formula mass?
The combined relative atomic masses of all the atoms in a formula. To find the relative formula mass of a chemical you just add up the relative atomic masses of the constituent atoms.
What is a mole?
An amount of substance containing 6x10 23 particles (atoms, molecules, ions). Note: One mole of a substance is equal to its relative atomic or formula mass in grams
What is the equation for moles?
Moles = mass/relative atomic mass
What is the molar volume of gasses?
1 moles of any gas occupies 24000cm3 at room temperature and pressure
What is the equation for #moles of gas?
moles gas = volume dm3/24
How do you convert from cm3 to dm3?
To convert cm3 to dm3 divide by 1000
What is thermal decomposition?
Breaking down by heat
What is the equation for the percentage yield?
Percentage yield = actual value/theoretic value x 100
What is an empirical formula?
Shows the simplest ratio of atoms present
What is the molecular formula?
Tells you the actual number of atoms in one molecule
What is the empirical and molecular formula of ethane?
Empirical formula - CH3
Molecular formula - C2H6
How do you convert from empirical to molecular formula?
To convert from empirical to molecular formula you need to know the Mr of the actual compound and then work out the Mr of the empirical formula
SO -
Actual Mr/Empirical Mr = multiplying factor
Now multiply each part of the empirical formula by the scale factor
How to calculate reacting mass calculations?
1) Write </ or ? on balanced equation
2) Find moles </ (=mass/Mr)
3) Find moles ? (use balanced equation)
4) Find mass? (= moles x Mr)
