C4 and C7 Flashcards
What is avogadro’s constant
6.02x10^23
Calculation for number of moles
Mass (g)/relative atomic mass or relative formula mass
What is a mole
The relative formula mass in grams of a substance
What do balanced symbol equations tell you
The number of moles of substances involved in a chemical reaction
Equation work out the concentration in g/dm3
Amount of solute(g) / volume of solution (dm3)
x1000 if trying to find out cm3
What does it mean if a solution is more concentrated
It has more solute in the same volume of solution than a less concentrated solution
What is an exothermic reaction
When heat energy is given out (temp goes up)
What is an endothermic reaction
Heat energy is transferred in (temp goes down)
Examples of exothermic reactions
Combustion, neutralisation and oxidation
Examples of endothermic reactions
Photosynthesis and thermal decomposition
What solution is used in reusable warmers
Crystalisation of a supersaturated solution
What kind of reaction is bond making
Exothermic
RR-foRming bonds Releases energy
What kind of reaction is bond breaking
Endothermic
BB- Breaking bonds aBsorbs energy
After calculating how can you tell if the reaction is exothermic or endothermic
If the number is negative it means it is an exothermic reaction and if positive it means it us an endothermic reaction
What is activation energy
The minimum amount of energy required for a chemcial reaction to occur
