1
Q

What is the conservation of mass

A

The law of conservation of mass states that no atoms are lost or made during a chemical reaction so the mass of the products equals the mass of the reactants.

Q

How to calculate the maxiumum mass of a substance

A

Step 1. note what you know and what to calculate - you can ignore the other substances
Ignore the big numbers for the moment - we will use them later
Step 2. Calculate the moles of the substance that you know the mass of
Step 3. Use the ratio of moles from the balanced equation to work out the number of moles of the substance with unknown mass ratio of moles is 2: 2
So there will be 0.675 moles of MgO as well
Rearrange and calculate the answer

Q

How to calculate mass

A

33
Q

Calculation to calculate moles

A

Concentration x volume

34
Q

In a chemical reaction why do we not always obtain the mass of the product calculated

A

Gases from the air may react with the chemicals in the beaker, increasing the mass.
Gaseous products may escape from the beaker into the air, decreasing the mass.

35
Q

What is the yield

A

The amount of product obtained in a chemical reaction

36
Q

How to calculate percentage yield

A

Mass of product actually made/max theoretical mass of product x100

37
Q

Example question-Zinc reacts with copper sulfate to produce 30g of copper.The theoretical yield of copper is 35g.Calculate the percentage yield

A

Percentage yield=30/35 x100
85.7%

38
Q

A

Contributes to sustainable development
Saves costs

39
Q

How to calculate atom economy

A

40
Q

How to calculate volumes of gasses

A

43
Q

What is a titre

A

Volume of solution added from thr burette

47
Q

What volume does one mole of any gas occupy at room temperature and pressure?

A

24dm^3 or 24000 cm3

48
Q

How do we know usually if there is a gas

A

If the mass seems to change

49
Q

Explanation of when the mass increases

A

If the mass increases its probably because one of the reactants is a gas that is found in air and all the products are solid liquids or aqueous.

50
Q

when a mass increases what happens

A

Before the reaction the gas is floating around in the air.Its there but its not contained in the reaction vessel,so you cant account for its mass
When the gas reacts to form part of the product it becomes contained inside the reaction vessel so the total mass of the stuff increases

51
Q

Explanation of when the mass decreases

A

Due to one of the products being a gas and the reactants being solid liquids or aqueous

52
Q

When a mass decreases what happend

A

Before the reaction all the reactants are contained in the reaction vessel.

After if the vessel isnt enclosed then the gas can escape from the reaction vessel as irs formed.Its no longer contained in the reaction vessel so you cant account for its mass.The total mass of the stuff inside decreases

53
Q

How to calculate relative atomic masses

A

(Isotope 1 times abundance) +(isotope 2 times abundance) divided by 100

54
Q

What is the relative formula mass equal to

A

It is numerically equal to the mass of one mole of a substance in grams.

55
Q

How to calculate mass of a given number of moles

A

Mass=moles x relative formula mass

56
Q

What is a standard solution

A

A standard solution is one of known concentration

57
Q

How to increase the concentration of a aqueous solution

A

adding more solute and dissolving it in the same volume of its solution

evaporating off some of the water from the solution so you have the same mass of solute in a smaller volume of solution.
