Q

How do you find Mr

A

Add the atomic masses of the atoms in the molecule - don’t forget if there’s a small number below the element you need to multiply its atomic mass by that number

Q

How do you deduce the formula of a simple molecular compound from a model or diagram

A

count the atoms of each element, then write the chemical formula using the element symbols and subscripts to indicate the number of each ato

Q

How do you construct symbol equations with state symbols, including ionic equations

A

first write the balanced symbol equation, then add state symbols (s, l, g, aq) to indicate the physical state of each substance, and finally, for ionic equations, identify and represent only the ions that participate in the reaction

Q

Net ionic equations + spectator ions

A

1 - split all ions (in aqueous form)
2 - write out charge and state of all ions
3 - cross out ions which are equivalent on both sides of the reaction (theses are the spectator ions)
4 - ionic equation is everything left over

Q

Empirical formula

A
  • convert the given percentages or masses of elements into moles ( % or mass / atomic mass Ar )
  • divide each by the smallest number of moles to get a whole-number ratio
17

A

Hydrogen + salt

19
Q

Metal + oxide

A

Metal oxide

20
Q

24
Q

Law of conservation of mass

A

Mass cannot be created or destroyed

25
Q

Limiting and excess reagents

A

1 - calculate the number of moles
2 - compare as a ratio of moles : find the simplest ratio
3 - whichever is greater is the reagent in excess, other is limiting
