Quantitative Chemistry Flashcards
What is relative formula mass
All the relative atomic masses added together
what is Ar
- Relative atomic mass
- big number of an atom
- protons and neutrons added together
Formula of percentage mass of an element in a compound
%mass = Ar x number of atoms of that element/ Mr
What is Mr
Relative formula mass
Formula for moles
Moles = mass/Mr
The actual number of avogadro’s constant
6.02 x 10^23
What is the relevance of avogadro’s constant
- one mole of any substance is just an amount of that substance that contains avogadros number
- so one mole of anything is equal to 6.02 x 10^23 particles
How to do those really hard questions that ha to do with moles were they ask you to work out x or something
- mass of reactant and products should be the same so work out mass of products
- work out Mr of products
- work out moles of products
- then divide the moles by the smallest mole
- should give you whole numbers
- then you can balance equation
Relationship between amount of product formed and amount of limiting reactant
- directly proportional
- for example if. You halve the amount of limiting reactant, the amount of product formed will also halve
How to work out mass of product formed in a reaction by using the mass of the limiting reactant and the balanced equation
- Write out a balanced equation
- Work out Mr of the reactant an product you want
- Find out how many moles there are of the substance you know the mass of
- Use the balanced equation to work out how many moles there’ll be of the other substance
- Use number of moles to calculate the mass
Formula of concentration
Concentration (g/dm^3) = mass/ volume (dm^3)
What is 1dm^3 equal to in cm
1000cm^3
