Molarity Flashcards
Smallest component/substance that still retains certain properties
Atom or Element
A particle or compound that still has the chemical properties of that element.
Molecule
Two or more different elements.
Compound
What is 6.02 x 10^23?
Avagadro’s number
The weight, in grams, of 1 Avagadro’s number of atoms.
Atomic weight
1 mole of a compound =
- Number of grams equal to the atomic weight of an element
- Avagadro’s number
- 6.02 x 10^23 parents particles
The total weight, in grams, or a molecule or compound.
Molecular weight
What is the equation for solving for moles?
Moles = grams of compound divided by grams of molecular weight (Moles = G / GMW)
Another way to say atomic weight (use as units instead of g)
Gram atomic weight (GAW)
Another way to say molecular weight (use as units instead of g)
Gram molecular weight (GMW)
Moles of substance in 1 liter is referred to as ________.
Molarity
What is the formula for solving molarity problems?
molecular weight times molarity = grams divided by liter (gmw x M = g / L
What is the simplified formula for solving for molarity?
Molarity (M) = grams divided by molecular weight and then divided by liters (M = [g / gmw] / liters)
