theoretical mass
reasons for <100% yield
- reaction doesn’t go to completion
- side reactions
- reversible reactions
- loss of product during transfer
- impure reactants

K
What is an ideal gas?
- particles have no volume
- no attraction/repulsion between particles
- particles are identical and in continuous random motion
- collisions are elastic
concentration =
moles/volume
