Stoichiometric relationships ibdp Flashcards
Characteristics of solids
- particles r close tgthr
- particles hv lower energy than in the 2 other states
- particles can only rotate & vibrate abt fixed positions
- strong foa btwn particles
Consequences of solids
- definite shape
- definite volume
- incompressible
- high density
Characteristics of Liquids
- particles r slightly further apart than in solids
- particles hv larger amts of energy than those in the solid state
- particles can move abt quite freely arnd one another while in close proximity
- moderate foa btwn particles(bcos some of the strong foa in the solid hv been broken)
Consequences of liquids
- indefinite shape
- definite volume
- negligible compressibility
- moderate to high density
Characteristics of Gases
- particles r far apart from one another
- particles hv much more energy than the othr 2 states
- particles can move rapidly, randomly and haphazardly into any space avail
- vry little foa btwn particles
Consequences of Gases
- indefinite shape(occupy whole container)
- indefinitie volume(affcted by temp & pressure)
- highly compressible
- low density
element
consists of only one type of atoms
compounds
consists of atoms of 2 or more diff elements bounded tgthr chemically in a fixed ratio
mixture
combination of 2 or more substances and can be separated by physical methods
homogenous mixture
two or more substances tht r evenly distributed throughout the mixture, resulting in the mixture hving an uniform composition n properties
heterogeneous mixture
two or more substances tht r not evenly distributed thruout the mixture, resulting in the mixture hving a non-uniform composition n varying properties
quantitatively a chemical eqn tells u
- the relative no. of molecules of the reactants n pdts
- the relative no. of moles(amts) of rctnts n pdts
- the relative masses of rctnts n pdts(multiply w Mr)
- the relative volumes of rctnts n pdts(if its gasesous)
number of moles=
mass(g)/Mr(g/mol)
no. of particles/ L(or NA)
Vol of gas/ 22.7dm3/mol(STP–>273K(0C) & 100kPa)
vol of gas/24,8dm3/mol(SATP–>298K(25C) & 100kPa)
conc (mol/dm3) x vol(dm3)
avagardo’s constant (L or Na)
number of constitutent particles per mole of a given substance, 6.02 x 10^23/mol
Molar mass
mass of substance in grams tht contains 1 mole of particles, g/mol
Ar
relative atomic mass, defined as the weighted average of the atomic masses of its isotopes and their relative abundance compared to 1/12 of the mass of C-12, NO UNITS!!
Mr
relative molecular mass, weighted average mass of a molecule compared to 1/12 of the mass of one atom of C-12, no units!!
density
mass per vol, si unit: kg/m3 but chemists usually use g/cm3
empirical formula
shows the kinds of atoms & their relative no.s in a substance in the smallest possible whole no. ratios
molecular formula
chemical formula tht indicates the actual no. of atoms of ech element in one molecule of the substance
headings for empirical formula table
no. of moles
divide by smallest no.
smallest mole no.
how to find molecular formula
molecular formula= n x empirical formula, n being relative molecular mass/relative mass of the empirical formula
combustion equation
CxHy(g) + (x + y/4)O2 (g) –> xCO2(g) + (y/2)H2O(l)
under satp and stp, water is liq hence the vol of water is negligble compared w the volumes of the other gases, from avogardo’s law, equal vol of gases under the same conditions of temp & pressure, contain equal no. of molecules. Hence the reacting molar ratio is = to the reacting ratio by vol
theoretical yield
qty of pdt calculated to form when all of the lr is consumed
actual yield
amt of pdt actually obtained–> diff frm theoretical yield bcos of diff in rctn conditions & presence of impurities–> give rise to deviation of actual yield frm theroetical yield
% yield
experimental yield/theoretical yield x 100%
conc (g/dm3)=
conc/molarity (mol/dm3) x molar mass(g/mol)
parts per million, ppm
one ppm is the no. of milligrams of solute per kg of sln, since 1mg= 10^-3g and 1kg=10^3g mass ratios(solute to sln) x 1 million(10^6) used for environmental pollution, eg co2 in air, a particular ion in seawater etc
standard sln
a sln w a known conc, usually made up of substance tht has high purity and stability. this is bcos it allows the substance to b accurately weighed, such tht an accurately known conc can b used reliably for the calibration of other standards, pepared using a volumetirc flask whr solvent is added to a high purity sample until the solvent rchs the calibrated mark on the flask
egs: ethanedioic acid, butanedioic acid, sodium hydrogencarbonate & anhydrous sodium carbonate. NaOH is not a gd primary standard bcos it absorbs atmospheric CO2
for redox titrations: sodium ethanedioate, potassium iodate(V) and potassium dichromate
sodium thiosulfate–> not a suitable pri stndrd bcos of its water of crystallisation
