Stoichiometry Flashcards
the calculation in chemistry
stoichiometry
the top most number
atomic mass
mass of a single atom of an element
atomic mass
atomic mass is determined by the number of ________________ in its nucleus
protons and neutrons
unit of atomic mass
atomic mass unit (amu)
weighted are mass of all the naturally occurring isotopes of an element
average atomic mass
the atoms of all the same element with different numbers of neutrons, which gives them different masses
isotopes
takes into the account the abundance of each isotope
average atomic mass
how to calculate average atomic mass
- multiply the mass of each isotope in its abundance (as a decimal)
- add these values
ratio of the average atomic mass of an atom to one atomic mass unit
relative atomic mass
it has no unit
relative atomic mass
the number of particles in one mole of a substance
Avogrado’s Number
the amount of a substance that contains (6.022x10^23) particles
mole
can be atoms, ions, molecules, or electrons depending on the context
Avogrado’s Number
1 mole of an element, molecular compound, or ionic compound contains (6.022x10^23)
Avogrado’s Number
