Atomic Structure, Analysis And Quantitative Chemistry Flashcards
The total number of protons and neutrons in an atom is called…
Its mass number.
Define isotope
Atoms of the same element but have a different number of neutrons.
Calculate relative formula mass
Add the relative atomic masses together.
What is paper chromatography used for?
Detecting artificial colours.
What is gas chromatography used for?
Allows the separation of a mixture of compounds.
How can you identify the substance in chromatography?
The time taken to travel through the column and the colours.
The number of peaks on the output of a gas chromatography indicates…
The number of compounds present.

Empirical formula
Find each mass. Find each atomic number. Divide the mass with the atomic numbers. Find the ratio. Write the formula e.g 2NO3
Molar mass
Add masses together.
