Q
What is a reaction pathway?
A
A sequence of reactions needed to produce a desired product
It is chosen based on factors such as atom economy and percentage yield etc
2
Q
What does avogadro’s law state?
A
When temperature and pressure stay the same equal volume of gases contain an equal number of molecules
3
Q
How is avogadros law useful?
A
It allows you to work out the volume ratios of substances in a chemical reaction by only knowing their molar ratio
4
Q
What is the molar volume?
A
The volume occupied by one mole of any gas at room temperature and pressure
24 dm3
5
Q
