Key equations and relationships Flashcards
Relationship between Mass Number (A), Number of Protons (p), and Number of Neutrons (n)
A = number of protons (p) + number of neutrons (n)
Atomic Mass
Atomic mass = Σn(fraction of isotope n) x (mass of isotope n)
Relationship between Density (d), Mass (m), and Volume (V)
d = m/V
Avogadro’s Number
1 mol = 6.0221421 x 1023 particles
The First-Order Rate Law
Rate = kN
The Half-Life Equation
k = rate constant
t1/2=0.693/k
The Integrated Rate Law
Nt= number of radioactive nuclei at time t
N0 = initial number of radioactive nuclei
ln (Nt/N0) = -kt

Temperature equation
K = ºC + 273.15
ºC = (ºF -32)/1.8
ºF = 1.8(ºC) + 32
0K = -273.15 ºC = -459.67 ºF
