Chapter 3 - Relative Formula Mass Flashcards
What is the Relative formula mass?
The relative formula mass is the amount of atomic mass it has each substance.
An example is: SiO2
32+(16*2)= 64
Moles???
Is the chemical amount measured in moles. The symbol fo this is mol.
1 mol of this substance is te relative formula mass in grams
Eg~ Silicon = 32g
Triangle for moles
Mass of grams (m) = Number of moles (n) * Molar mass (M or Mr)
Triangle for Moles in concentration?
Concentration of solution (c) = number of moles (n) ÷ volume (v)
Concentration of solution is measured in = mol dm-3
Volume is measured in = dm3
How to convert from dm3 to cm3 and opposite?
From dm3 to cm3 = * 1000
From cm3 to dm3 = ÷ 1000
What is percentage yield?
Theoretical yield:
If you take 10 penalties, what is the maximum you can score = 10
Theoretical theory
If you only score 8, what is your percentage= 80%
Percentage yield
What is the atomic economy?
The atomic economy is the mass of product you want want as a % of the mass of all the products you make.
An example:
CuO + H2SO4 —> CuSO4 + H2O
V V V V
79.5 98 159.5 + 18
Triangle for calculating gas volume
Volume (v) = Number of moles (n) ÷ 24
Or.
Volume (v) = number of moles (n) * 24
What are titrations?
Titration, also known as titrimetry, is a common laboratory method of quantitative chemical analysis that is used to determine the concentration of an identified analyte. Since volume measurements play a key role in titration, it is also known as volumetric analysis.
