Balancing Chemical Equation and Stoichiometry Flashcards
The substances undergoing reaction, and placed on the left
side
Reactant
The substances generated by the reaction, and placed on the right side
Product
Relative numbers of reactant and product species. A coefficient of one (1) is omitted.
Equation Coefficient
Atoms are neither created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction. T or F?
T
The mass of the reactants and the mass of the products are the same, because both contain exactly the same number of atoms of each kind present. T or F?
T
Involves using relationships between reactants and/or
products in a chemical reaction to determine desired
quantitative data.
STOICHIOMETRY
Sum of the atomic weights of the atom in a molecule
MOLECULAR WEIGHT
Sum of the atomic weights of the atom in a chemical formula. Generally reported for ionic compounds.
FORMULA WEIGHT
The amount of substance that contains as many entities as the number of atoms in exactly 12 grams of the 12C isotope of carbon.
MOLE
One mole of anything is equal to
6.02 x 10^23
Numerically equal to the atomic mass or molecular mass expressed in u (or amu).
