Moles Flashcards
Mole
The amount of substance containing as many particles as there are C atoms in exactly 12g of C – 12
Avogadros constant
The number of particles per mole of a substance (6.02 x 10 23)
Molar mass
The mass per mole of a substance (gmol-1)
(Molecules/atoms/ions…interchangeable)
Particles =
Moles x Na (avogadro)
Moles (solid)
Mass/Mr
Moles (gas)
V/24
dm3
Cm3 -> dm3
/1000
Moles (solution)
c x v
(Dm3)
Molar gas volume (rule)
One mole of any gas occupies a volume of 24 dm3 at RTP and has a molar gas volume of 24.0dm3mol-1
Solution
Substances dissolved in a specific volume of water (solute in solvent )
Stoichiometry
Reacting molar ratios
(Numbers in balanced equation)
Atom Economy
Measure of the proportion of reactant atoms that become part of the desired product in the balanced chemical equation
Mr desired product/Total product Mr. (x100)
Addition reaction atom economy
Always 100% (add to 1 compound)
Benefits of high atom economy
-low waste - expensive to separate + dispose + environment effects
-reactants expensive
-limited raw materials - sustainability
-some catalysts developed to increase AE.
% yield
% To indicate how much product is made in reaction compared to how much could have been made
Actual/theoretical (x100)
