How to calculate relative formula mass (Mr)?
Add all the relative atomic masses (Ar) together.
How to calculate the percentage mass of an element in a compound?
Ar * number of atoms of that element / Mr of the compound * 100
What is a mole and how much is one mole?
An amount of a substance. One mole = Ar of the element)
What is the Avogadro constant?
6.02 * 10^23
How to calculate the number of moles?
Mass (g) / Mr
What’s a limiting reactant?
The reactant that’s used up in a reaction.
How to calculate volume of gas?
Mass of gas / Mr of gas * 24
Definition of concentration?
The amount of a substance in a certain volume of a solution.
What are the 2 equations for concentration?
Mass of solute / volume of solvent
OR
Number of moles of solute / volume of solvent
What are titrations?
Experiments that let you find the volume of 2 solutions that are needed to react together completely.
Equation to transfer mol/dm^3 to g/dm^3?
Mass = moles * Mr
What is atom economy?
Percentage of reactants forming useful products.
How to calculate atom economy?
Relative formula mass (Mr) of desired product / relative formula mass (Mr) of all reactants * 100
What does 100% atom economy mean?
All atoms in the reactants are desired products.
Positives of 100% atom economy?
Less waste
More profitable
