C4 Flashcards
what is molar mass
relative formula mass of a substance in g (g/mol)
what is the standard atom
carbon-12
what is avogadro constant
23
6.02 x 10
what is the equation for calculating number of miles
Ar or Mr
what is a limiting reactant
the reactant that gets used up first in a reaction (not in excess)
what is percentage yield
how much product is made compared with how much could’ve been made (100%)
what factors affect yield
products being left behind in apparatus
reversible reactions not going to completion
some reactants produce unexpected reactions
losses in separating products from reaction mixture
what is the equation for calculating % yield
mass of product produced
—————————- X100
max mass of product
possible
what is the equation for calculating atom economy
RFM of desired products from equation ------------------------- X100 sum of RFM of the reactants from equation
when is 10% atom economy achieved
when all atoms in reactants are in products
what is the equation for calculating concentration in (g/dm3)
vol of solution (dm3)
how many cm3 is 1dm3
1000cm3
what is the equation for calculating the mass of a solute in g
concentration (g/dm3) X volume of solution (dm3)
what is a titration used for
to measure accurately what volumes of acid and alkali react completely together
what is an acid/base indicator used for in a titration
to mark the end of the reaction because when the solution changes colour, it had been neutralised
