FINAL 11 EXAM FINALLY DONE WITH CHEM Flashcards
:O
Mole Ratio
ratio between the amount of moles of any two compounds involved in a chemical reaction
Excess reactant
the reactant is left after the reaction has stopped, not all reactants have been consumed in reactions
Limiting reactant
the reactant runs out first in a reaction, limits product formed
Mol Ratio equation steps
- write balanced equation
- write variable values under equation
- calculate number of known moles using n = m/M
- find the number of unknown moles using mole ratios
- Calculate mass of unknown using the formula m = n x M
Aliquot
small measured amount of homogenous liquid that is added to a solution of unknown concentration
Titre
total volume of solution delivered by burette to reach endpoint
Equivalence
the point in which the reaction occurs (neutralisation/titration occurs)
Endpoint
the point in which a change in colour is observed that indicates titration is complete
PH Curve
also called a titration curve, a group showing the pH change during titration, x-axis volume of titrant, y-axis pH of solution
Concordant
when the volume of two or more titres are similar in quantity
Meniscus
the curve seen at the top of a liquid in response to its container
Volumetric flask
used to prepare standard solution
Pipette
(used to accurately measure aliquot)
Burette
used to accurately measure known volumes of solution known as titre
Volumetric analysis steps
- write a balanced equation
- write variables
- calculate known moles using n = CV
- use mole ratio o find unknown moles
- calculate the unknown concentration using C = n/V
Strong acid
readily donates a proton
Weak acid
partially donates a proton
Acid
donates a proton
Base
accepts/retrieves a proton
Neutral
equal OH- and H+
pH
measure of acidity produced of H
Colorimetry colours absorbed vs colour of sample solution
(I don’t know if you need to learn this)
violet - green/yellow
violet/blue - yellow
blue - orange
Calibration curve x and y axis
x - Concentration
y - Absorbance
Oxidation reaction
a substance loses electrons
Reduction reaction
a substance gains electrons
Reducing agent
a substance that loses electrons and causes reduction
Oxidising agents
a substance that gains electrons and causes oxidation
