Module 2: Amount Of Substance Atoms Ions And Compounds Flashcards
What is the structure of an atom
Protons and neutrons in nucleus and electrons in shells
What is the charge of a proton
+1
What is the charge of an neutron
0
What the charge of an electron
-1
What is the mass of a proton
1
What is the mass of a neutron
1
What is the mass of an electron
1/1836
What is the overall charge of an atom and why
Neutral because the total positive charge from protons is equal to the negative charge from electrons
Definition for a mole
Amount of substance containing as many particles as there are carbon atoms in exactly 12g of the C-12 isotope
definition for relative atomic mass
Weighted mean mass of an atom of an element compared to 1/12th of the mass of an atom if C-12
Definition for relative isotopic mass
Weighted mean mass of an atom of an isotope when compare to 1/12th mass of an atom of C-12
What molar mass
Mass mole of a substance (g mol-1)
Definition for relative molecular mass
Weighted mean mass of a molecule compared to 1/12 of the mass of an atom of C-12
What’s avogadros constant
Number of atom per mole of the C-12 isotope (6.02 x 10^23 )
How do you do a reacting mass calculation when given 1 mass
Whilst using balanced equation and correct units
1. Mole of known (mol = mass/mr)
2. Mole of unknown (mole ratio)
3. Mass of unknown (mass = mol x mr
What is the solid equation for moles
Mole= mass (g) / Mr
What is a limiting reagent
Substance in reaction which runs out first
How do you do a limiting reagent mass calculation when given 2 masses
Using balanced equation and correct units
1. Mol of both reagents (mol = mass/mr)
2. Find limiting reagent
3. Mol of unknown (mol ratio)
4. Mass of unknown (mass =mol x mr )
