Avogadro constant
The number of atoms, molecules, or ions in a mole of any substance (6.02x10^-23 per mole)
Concentration
The amount of substance dissolved in a given volume of liquid
Limiting reactant
The reactant in a chemical reaction that when used up causes the reaction to stop
Mole
The amount of substance in the relative atomic or formula mass of a substance in grams
Relative atomic mass a
the average mass of the atoms of an element compared with carbon-12 (which is given a mass of exactly 12). The
average mass must take into account the proportions of the naturally occurring isotopes of the element
Relative formula mass M
The total relative atomic masses, sdded up in the ratio shown in the chemical formula of a substance
