Q

Converting to different units

A

King Henry Died By drinking chocolate milk
K H D B d c m

B= grams, meters, liters
B is the base
ex) 1056 cm -> ? m
You start at c and then you need to go to B in order to do this you move the decimal point to the left 2 places...
meaning 1056cm = 10.56 m

Q

% composition

A

use atmoic mass formula but replace % with x

ex) atomic mass (63.546) = ( y x mass [62.9296]) + ( {1 - x} x mass [64.9278])

to find 2nd % composition must subtract original answer by 1
ex) 1-0.6915

Q

Empirical Formula Steps

A

1) change % to grams (same value)
2) convert grams to mols with molar mass
3) divide by smallest number of mols
4) multiply the values found to get a whole #
