Chemistry [Chemical Formula - Gases] Flashcards
Emipirical Formula
simplest ratio of the number of atoms of the elements in a compound
Molecular Formula
the actual number of atoms of an element in a molecule of a compound
Formula Mass
sum of all the atomic masses
Molecular and Empirical ass
Mole

6.02x10^23 particles per mole
Molar Mass
mass of one mole of an atom, element, molecule, and other compounds
Molecular Mass
the mass of a molecule which is the combination of the atomic masses
Oxidation number
number of electrons atom can share, lose or gain
Percent Composition
the chemical composition can be expressed in terms of mass percent
