Q

mass spec method

A

sample is vaporised/ ionised to get positive ions, the ions are accelerated. heavier ions move slower and are harder to deflect so they are separated, depicted as mass to charge ratio. each ion reading adds to signal, greater abundance = greater signal

110
Q

dissociation in sulphuric acid equations

A

hydrogen atoms, as an H+ ion :
H2SO4 (aq) → H+ (aq)+ HSO4- (aq)
The resulting hso4- (aq) ions then only partially dissociate

titrations

A

technique to accurately measure the volume of one solution that reacts exactly with another solution

124
Q

titration uses

A

1) find the concentrations of a solution
2) identification of unknown substances
3) purity of a substance

125
Q

impurities can cause ….

A

harm eg. in medication

126
Q

preparing a standard soloutionn- equipment

A

a volumetric flask is used to make up a standard solution accurately

127
Q

standard solution

A

a solution of a known concentration

128
Q

preparing a standard solution - method

A

1)The solid is first weighed accurately

2)The solid is dissolved in a beaker using less distilled water than will be needed to fill the volumetric flask.

3)The last traces of solution are rinsed into the solution with more distilled water

4) the flask is then carefully filled to the graduation line by adding distilled water a drop at a time until the bottom of the meniscus is lines up exactly with the mark. Care at this stage is essential - if too much water is added the solution will be to dilute and must be prepared again

5) the volumetric flask is slowly inverted several times to mix the solution thoroughly, makes consistent results

129
Q

A

The solution of an acid is titrated against a solution of a base using a pipette and burette
