What is an isotope
. Have same number of electrons but different number of neutrons
. Have same chemical properties because same electrons in outer shell
What is an ion
. A positively or negatively charged atom
What is relative atomic mass
. Average mass of an atom relative to 1/12th The mass of one atom of carbon 12
What is relative isotopic mass
. Mass of the isotope compare to 1/12 the mass of a carbon 12 atom
What is weighted mean mass
. Mr taking into account the relative abundance of isotopes
How do you calculate percentage by mass of an element
Percentage by mass = mass of element/mass of compound X 100
What is molar gas volume
. Volume occupied by one mole of gas, molar gas volume is dependent on temperature and pressure
What is a standard solution
. Always made using volumetric flask
. Is a solution of known concentration
What factors can affect percentage yield
. Reaction may not go to completion
. Reactants may not be pure
. Other reactions me occur which leads to byproduct
. Products may be left behind in the reaction vessel
. Separation of purification of the products may result in loss of some of the products
How do you calculate percentage yield
. Percentage yield = actual yield/theoretical yield × 100
How do you calculate percentage Atom economy
. Percentage Atom economy = MR (desired products)/MR (all products) × 100
What is a hydrated salt and an anhydrous salt
. Contains water of crystallisation
. Contains no water of crystallisation
What is empirical formula
. Simplest whole number ratio of atoms present in a compound
What is the molecular formula
. The actual number of atoms of each element in a molecule
What is an acid
. Proton donor
What is a strong acid
. Dissociate volume water into H plus ions Where is a weak acid or partially
What is a base
. Proton acceptor
What is an alkali
. Releases 0H minus ions in a solution
What is a salt
. When the H plus in an acid is replaced by a metal ion or an ammonium ion
How do you calculate percentage error
. Percentage error = total uncertainty/reading × 100
What is a concordant titre
. Title values within 0.1 cm³ of each other
What are oxidising and reducing agents
. A substance that is reduced in a redox reaction is known as an oxidising agent
. A substance that is oxidised in a redox reaction is known as a reducing agent
How do you calculate the number of electrons in a shell
. Electrons = 2 (shell number squared)
What is an orbital
. A region that can hold up to 2 electrons of opposite spins
