22
Q

Explain these properties of gases: Volume, amount, temp, pressure

A

Volume= the amount of space it takes up.

Amount= number of particles measured in moles

Temp= determined by average speed of particles

Pressure= number of collisions between particles and walls of container

23
Q

What are the 4 gas laws relating amount, pressure, volume, and temp?

A

&= directly proportional

Amount & Volume
Volume & Temp
Temp & pressure

Volume and Pressure are not &

24
Q

What is the ideal gas equation?

A

PV=nRT

P- pressure (Pa)
V- Volume (m3)
n- number of moles
R- gas constant (JK-1 mol-1)
T- temp (Kelvin)

25
Q

A

KPA> x1000> Pa

26
Q

What is 1Nm-1 equal to?

A

1Pa

27
Q

Define Percentage Yield

A

How efficient the reaction is at converting reactants into products

28
Q

How do you calculate theoretical yield?

A
  1. Balance
  2. Identify limiting reactant
  3. Find moles of limiting reactant
  4. Find amount (moles or mass) of desired product
29
Q

What is the % yield equation?

A

% yield= Actual yield / Theoretical yield.
x 100

30
Q

What does a high % yield mean for cost?

A

Lower economic and environmental costs

31
Q

To find the theoretical yield, you need to find the limiting reactant, how?

A
  1. Turn the given mass into mol
    mass/ Mr
  2. Use the mole ratio
32
Q

Define percentage atom economy

A

The percentage of reactants that end up in the desired product, compared to waste products

33
Q

What is the % atom economy equation?

A

% atom economy = Mr desired products / total Mr of all reactants

x 100

34
Q

What are the 4 steps to working out a titration calculation?

A
  1. Balance equation
  2. Calculate how many moles reacted for the solution with a known conc.
    mol= vol x conc
  3. Use the mole ratio to calculate the amount of the other solution that reacted
  4. Use this amount, along with the initial volume to calculate the unknown conc.
    conc= mol / vol
35
Q

What is a titration used for?

A

To find the amount of solute in solution, to then find conc

36
Q

Example of a neutralisation reaction

A

Acid + Base –> Salt + Water

37
Q

How do you calculate purity?

A

% Purity= mass of solute / total mass of substance
x 100

38
Q

What is the empirical formula?

A

The simplest whole number ratio of elements in a compound

39
Q

How do you work out the empirical formula?

A
  1. Work out ratio of moles or atoms
    - if given mass, change to moles
    -if given a %, switch to mass 75%=75g
    then to moles
  2. Simplify
    -divide by the smallest number and convert to whole numbers

(the number after the decimal e.g 0.5, its equivilent fraction, 1/2, times by denominator , x2)

40
Q

You have the decimals:
.5
.33
.66
.25
.75

What are there equivilent fractions

A

.5 = 1/2
.33= 1/3
.66=2/3
.25=1/4
.75=3/4

41
Q

Define molecular formula

A

The actual number of atoms of each element in a compound

42
Q

How do you find molecular formulas?

A
  1. Find empirical formula
  2. Find relative forula mass
  3. Find correct multiple
  4. Times empirical by multiple

Multiple?
Mr / formula mass

43
Q

How would you find the percentage of water in a hydrated salt? e.g MgSO4 . yH20

A

y(18.0) / molar mass of salt + (y x 18.0)
x100

where y= moles of water
18.0= molar mass of water
