17
Q

What will one mole of any substance have a mass in grams equal to

A

The relative formula mass

18
Q

How do you work out the number of moles in a compound

A

Mass in grams divided by formula mass

19
Q

How do you work out the mass of an element or compound

A

Number of moles multiplied by relative formula mass

20
Q

How do you work out mass concentration of a solution

A

Mass divided by volume

21
Q

How do you work out mole concentration

A

Mass concentration divided by formula mass

22
Q

How do you work out mass concentration using mole concentration

A

Mole concentration multiplied by formula mass

23
Q

What does hard area react with soap to form

A

Scum

24
Q

What do you have to do to get a lather with hard water

A

Use more soap

25
Q

What is hardness in water caused by

A

Calcium and magnesium ions

26
Q

What does calcium carbonate react with acid rain to form

A

Calcium hydrogencarbonate

27
Q

How do you remove temporary hardness and what is it caused by

A

It’s caused by calcium hydrogencarbonate

To remove it you can boil the water to from calcium carbonate (limescale)

28
Q

How can you remove permanent hardness

A

An ion exchange resin

Exchange of calcium and magnesium ions into sodium and hydrogen ions

29
Q

What is a resin

A

A solid polymer that’s insoluble in water

30
Q

What are titrations used for

A

To find out concentrations

31
Q

What does titrations also allow you to find out

A

How much acid is needed to neutralise a quantity of alkali

32
Q

When is the indicator phenolphthalein used

A

When there is a weak acid and a strong alkali

33
Q

When is the indicator methyl orange used

A

Strong acid and weak alkali

34
Q

How do you work out the number of moles in a titration

A

Concentration multiplied by volume

35
Q

How would you make a soluble salt from an insoluble reactant

A
Acid plus insoluble reactant 
Insoluble reactant such as metal carbonate or oxide 
Add together and leave to dissolve 
Filter to remove excess solid 
Heat to from crystallised salt
36
Q

How do you make soluble salts from a soluble reactant

A

Acid with an alkali
Alkali such as sodium ammonium or potassium hydroxide as they’re soluble
Must first carry out a titration to make sure the quantities are correct as you can’t tell when the reaction has finished
Add together and evaporate off to form a pure dry salt

37
Q

In what cases would you need to know what is present in a substance

A

Blood tests for general health,diagnose disease, alcohol

Water companies to check water purity

38
Q

Examples of insoluble bases

A

Metal carbonate

Metal oxide

39
Q

Examples of alkalis to produce a soluble reactant

A

Sodium , potassium, ammonium hydroxides

40
Q

When using an acid and a base to produce a soluble reactant why can’t you add excess alkali to ensure the reaction has finished (been neutralised)

A

Because the salt produced is soluble so can’t just filter out the excess
