Module 2 Chemical Equations and the Mole Concept Flashcards
the SI unit to denote the amount of substance
mole
s the amount of substance that contains as many elementary particles as in 0.12 kg of carbon-12.
mole
Avogadro’s number
mole of pure substance is 6.022 x 1023 entities
mass of 1 mole of units of a substance and is numerically equal to the atomic mass of an element
molar mass (1g = 6.022x10^23 amu)
is the sum of the amu in the molecule
molecular mass
no. of moles =
mass/molar mass
no. of molecules (or atoms) =
no. of moles x Avogadro’s no.
is a representation of a chemical reaction using the chemical formulas of the reactants and products
balanced chemical equation
a chemical equation that is balanced will always reflect the law of ____- and law of _____ because atoms are indestrcutuble
law of conservation of mass and the law of conservation of atom
is the starting material that is totally consumed when the chemical reaction is completed.
limiting reagent
sig fig rules:
- all nonzeros are significant
- middle zeros
- trailing zeros w decimals
- leading zeros are never significant
- trailing zeros w/o decimals
