True

Question 9

Fill in the blank: In a balanced equation, the number of _____ of each element must be the same on both sides.

Answer 9

atoms

Question 10

What does the term ‘limiting reactant’ refer to?

Answer 10

The limiting reactant is the substance that is totally consumed in a chemical reaction, limiting the amount of product formed.

Question 11

Multiple Choice: Which of the following is a common unit for concentration? A) Molarity B) Kilograms C) Liters D) Moles

Answer 11

A) Molarity

Question 12

What is molarity (M)?

Answer 12

Molarity is the number of moles of solute per liter of solution.

Question 13

True or False: A 1 M solution of NaCl contains 1 mole of NaCl in 1 liter of solution.

Answer 13

True

Question 14

What is the formula to calculate molarity?

Answer 14

Molarity (M) = moles of solute / liters of solution.

Question 15

Fill in the blank: The process of converting between moles and grams involves using the _____ of the substance.

Answer 15

molar mass

Question 16

What is the significance of the coefficients in a balanced chemical equation?

Answer 16

Coefficients indicate the relative number of moles of each substance involved in the reaction.

Question 17

Multiple Choice: If 2 moles of A react with 3 moles of B, how many moles of C can be produced if the reaction is A + B → C? A) 1 B) 2 C) 3 D) 5

Answer 17

B) 2

Question 18

What is the purpose of a titration in quantitative chemistry?

Answer 18

Titration is used to determine the concentration of a solution by reacting it with a solution of known concentration.

Question 19

True or False: The endpoint of a titration is indicated by a color change.

Answer 19

True

Question 20

What is the formula for calculating percent yield?

Answer 20

Percent yield = (actual yield / theoretical yield) x 100.

Question 21

Fill in the blank: Theoretical yield is the maximum amount of product that can be formed based on the _____ of the limiting reactant.

Answer 21

stoichiometry

Question 22

What is the difference between empirical and molecular formulas?

Answer 22

The empirical formula shows the simplest ratio of elements, while the molecular formula shows the actual number of atoms of each element in a molecule.
