Quantitative Aspects Of Chemical Change Flashcards
The mole
The amount of substance having the same number of particles as there are atoms in 12g of carbon-12
Molar mass
The mass of one mole of a substance
Avogadro’s number
The number of particles present in one mole
Avogadro’s law
One mole of any gas occupies the same volume at the same temperature and pressure
Concentration
The amount of solute per litre of solution
Empirical formula
The simplest integral /whole number ratio in which different elements are combined
Theoretical yield
The amount of product we would expect to form as the results of doing calculations
Actual yield
The amount of product formed we actually do the experiment
Limiting reagent
A substance that is used up first in the chemical reaction
Percentage yield
The amount of product formed in the chemical reaction
STP
Standard temperature and pressure
