Chemical calculations Flashcards
Naming Compounds
oxygen + iron –> ???
Iron oxide
non-metal + metal –> metal - non metal
Two element compounds end in…?
ide
Three element compounds containing oxygen end in…?
ate
How to tell number of atoms in a formula?
It’s literally the small numbers lol noob gay
Salt is also named…?
Uhh dude, that would be salt?
That’s what I said, sodium chloride
What are ionic compounds made up in?
Two parts:
positive metal ion
negative non-metal ion
How are all ionic compounds neutral?
Equal numbers of positive and negative charges
What’s the chemical formula for sodium hydroxide?
Uhh idk, NaOH?
How do u find the mass number?
Number at top of element
How do u find the atomic number?
Number at bottom of element
How do u find Mr? (molecule mass)
Add up mass numbers of the atoms (aka elements)
I guess just say
Add mass numbers of the singular element and multiply if more than 1 of em
How do u calculate % of mass of an element?
percentage composition
- Find the Mr of the compound
- Find percentage of certain element by:
Total amount of atoms of element/Total mass of compound x 100
= percentage of element
Balancing equations?
Reactants –> Products
Making sure both sides are balanced e.g.
2Li + 2HCl –> 2LiCl + H2
^^^ get it?
List 3 signs of chemical change
· Effervescing
· Changes in state
· Temperature changes (increases/decreases)
Define endothermic
Absorbs energy (decrease in temp)
