Topic 2.1.3 Flashcards
What is the symbol for amount of substance?
n
What is the unit used to measure the amount of substance?
Mole
What does the Avogadro constant represent?
The number of atoms per mole of the Carbon-12 isotope
How to calculate the mass of one mole of the element?
Mass of one mole= relative atomic mass in grams
How to calculate moles when mass and molar mass are given?
-1
Moles(mol)=mass(g)/molar mass(gmol)
State avogadro’s law
Under the same temperature and pressure, one mole of any gas would occupy the same volume
How much volume does a gas occupy, at room temperature and pressure?
24dm3 or 24000cm3
Define molar gas volume
The volume per mole of gas molecules
Why do different gas particles occupy the same volume?
The gas particles are very spread out, hence individual differences has no effect
How to calculate moles when gas volume is given?
Moles(mol)= volume(dm3)/24
Or
Moles(mol)= volume(cm3)/24000
What are the ideal ways in which gases behave? (5)
- They are in continuous motion
- No intermolecular forces experienced
- Exert pressure when they collide with each other or container
- No kinetic energy is lost in the collisions
- When temperature increases, kinetic energy of gases also increase
Write down the ideal gas equation (in words and symbols, including the units)
pV=nRT
Pressure x volume = number of moles x gas constant x temperature
Pressure - Pa Volume - m3. Temp K
Gas constant - 8.314 Jmol-1
1 atmospheric pressure is equal to how many pascal?
1atm = 101325 pascal
0 degrees Celsius is equal to how many Kelvin?
273K
What does the concentration of a solution mean?
It is the amount of solute dissolved in 1dm3 of solvent
