C4 : Quantitative Chemistry Flashcards

1
Q

Explain the meaning of a mole (2)

A
  • One mol of a substance is the amount fo substance that contains Avogadro’s number (6.02 x 10^23 particles)
  • one mole of any substance contains the same no. units as one mole of any other substance .

Q

describe the link between the mole and the relative atomic mass of the element. (3)

A
  • the value of the relative atomic mass of any element
  • is EQUAL to the mass of one mole of that substance
  • in grams.

Q

Why does increasing the concentration have an effect on the rate of reaction? (3)

A
  • a high concentration has MORE PARTICLES PER UNIT VOLUME
  • bc they are closer together
  • therefore more collisions

Q

titration METHOD?

A

1) USE PIPETTE AND PIPETTE FILLER to add VOL OF ALKALINE to conical flask - ADD INDICATOR TOO
2) use FUNNEL to add ACID INTO BURETTE of KNOWN CONC - record initial volume of acid in burette
3) Add acid into ALKALINE slowly and give regular SWIRLS - if near end point add slower
4) indicator changes colour if NEUTRALISED
5) Record FINAL VOL OF ACID IN BURETTE and use it along with INITIAL READING to calculate vol of acid to neutralise ALKALINE
6) REPEAT - RECORD MEAN
