RAM, RMM, moles and avogrados constant Flashcards
What is the RAM? (relative atomic mass)
The relative atomic mass is the average mass of an ELEMENT compared to 1/12th the mass of a single carbon 12 atom.
True or false; does every element have multiple isotopes?
False, ALMOST all of them do.
What is the equation for relative atomic mass?
RAM= average mass of one atom of an element/ mass of one atom of ¹²C
What is RMM? (relative molecular mass)
The relative molecular mass is the average mass of a MOLECULE compared to 1/12th the mass of a single carbon 12 atom.
What is the equation for relative molecular mass?
RMM= average mass of one molecule x 12/ mass of one atom of ¹²C
What is the RFM? (relative formula mass)
It is used for ionic compounds as they dont exist in molecules.
What is the symbol for relative atomic mass?
Aᵣ
What is the symbol for relative molecular mass?
Mᵣ
What is the symbol for relative formula mass?
Mᵣ
What is Avogrados constant written as?
6.022x10²³
Define Avogrados constant.
It is the number of atoms in 12g of carbon 12
Define mole.
It is the amount of substance that contains 6.022x10²³
What equation links moles, mass and Mᵣ
number of moles= mass/ Mᵣ
What are the units for Moles, Mass and Mr/Ar?
Mass= g
Mr/Ar= g mol-1
Moles= mol
What equation links mass of 1 mol, mass of 1 atom and avogrados constant?
Mass of 1 mol= mass of 1 atom or molecule x avogrados constant
