Module 1 - 1.1.2 Moles and Equations Flashcards
What is a mole?
One mole of a substance is the amount of the substance that has the same number of particles as 12.0000g of Carbon- 12.
How many particles are in a mole?
6.02 x 10^23 - Avogadro’s Constant
Number of moles =
Number of particles you have DIVIDED BY Number of particles in a mole (6.02 x 10^23)
Molar mass x Number of moles =
Mass of substance.
How do you find the volume (dm^3) of a gas at room temperature and pressure?
Number of moles x 24
What is an empirical formula?
The simplest whole number ratio of atoms in a compound.
What is the molecular formula?
This formula shows the actual amount of atom in a molecule e.g Decadane = C(10)H(22)
Name all four state symbols.
(s) - solid
