Module 1 Flashcards
What is a isotope
Istopes are atom with the same number of proton but different number of neutrons
Why do isotopes have similar chemical properties but do not have similar physical properties
Isotopes have similar chemical properties because they have the same electronic structure but they have varying physical properties because they have different masses
What is the the definition of relative isotopic mass
Relative isotopic mass is the mass of one isotope compared to on twelfth of the mass of one atom of carbon -12
What is the definition of the relative atomic mass
Relative atomic mass is the weighted mean mass of one atom compared to one twelfth of the mass of one atom of carbon -12
What is the definition of relative molecular mass
Relative molecular mass is the average mass of a molecule compared to one twelfth of the mass of one atom of carbon -12
What group element produces 1+ ion and also what element that aren’t this particular group produce 1+ ions
Group 1
Hydrogen
Silver
Gold
What group element produce 3+ charge and what is the transition metal with a 3+ charge
Group 3
Iron (lll)
what group and compund produce a 3-
group 5
phosphate
what group and compounds produce -2 ions
group 6
carbonate
sulfate
what group and compound produce a -1 ion
group 7
nitrate
hydroxide
what is a specator ion
ions that are not changing state or not changing oxidation number
what is a mole
the mole is the amount in grams that has the same number of particles as there are atoms in 12 grams of carbon -12
what is relative atomic mass
relative atomic mass is the average mass of one atom compared to one twellth of mass of one arom of carbon -12
what is molar mass and what are the units
molar mass is sthe mass in grams of 1 mole of a substance and is given the unit g mol -1
what is molar gas volume
this is the volume of 1 mole of a gas at a goven tempature and pressure
what is empircal formula
An empirical formula is the simplest ratio of atoms of each element in the compound.
what is avogadro constant
is the value 6.023 x 10^23 which is the number atom in 12g of carbon -12.one mole of any substance has 6.023x10^23 atom of that substance
how do you calculate empircal formula
Step 1 : Divide each mass (or % mass) by the atomic mass of the element
Step 2 : For each of the answers from step 1 divide by the smallest one of those numbers.
Step 3: sometimes the numbers calculated in step 2 will need to be multiplied up to give whole numbers. These whole numbers will be the empirical formula.
What is the definition of molecular formula
A molecular formula is the actual number of atoms of each element in the compound.
what is the equation to calculate concentraion
mol/volume
what is volume measured in
dm^3
what is a solution
solution is a mixture formed when a solute dissolve in a solvent
what is ionic bonding
Ionic bonding is the electrostatic force of attraction
between oppositely charged ions formed by electron transfer.
what infulence the strength of ionic bonding
Ionic bonding is stronger and the melting points higher when the ions are smaller and/ or have higher charges.
what are the property of ionic compounds
*High melting points - There are strong electrostatic attractive forces between the oppositely
charged ions in the lattice
*Non conductor of electricity when solid- The ions are held together tightly in the lattice and can not
move so no charge is conducted
*Good conductor of electricity when in solution or molten – The ions are free to move when in
solution and molten. Charge can be carried
Typical Physical properties of Ionic Compounds
* They are usually soluble in aqueous solvents.
what is a covalent bond
covalent bond is the strong electrostatic attraction between a
shared pair of electrons and the nuclei of the bonded atoms
what is a dative /co-ordinate bond
A dative covalent bond forms when the
shared pair of electrons in the covalent bond
come from only one of the bonding atoms. A
dative covalent bond is also called co-ordinate
bonding.
what is the structure of a ionic compound
giant ionic lattice
