What is the relative atomic mass of an element?
The weighted average mass of an atom of an element, taking into account its naturally occurring isotopes, relative to 1/12th of the relative atomic mass of one C-12 atom.
What is the relative molecular mass of a molecule?
The mean mass of that molecule compared to 1/12th the relative atomic mass of an atom C-12.
What is Avogadro’s constant?
6.022 x10^23
What is the ideal gas equation?
PV = nRT
pressure (Pa) x volume (m3) = number of moles x temperature (K) x 8.31
What is empirical formula?
The formula which represents the simplest ratio of atoms of each element in a compound.
How do you find the molecular formula of a compound?
Relative molecular mass/relative mass of empirical formula
How do you find concentration given the number of moles and volume?
Number of moles/volume (dm3)
What is the stoichiometry of a reaction?
The ratio in which the reactants react, and products form.
What type of equation is formed by removing spectator ions?
Ionic equation
What is the formula for atom economy?
100 x (Mass of desired product/total mass of reactants)
What is the formula for the yield of a reaction?
100 x (Amount of specified product/theoretical maximum amount of product)
