actual yeild
The amount of product obtained when you carry out experiment
Percentage yield equation
percentage yield = (actual yield / theoretical yield) x100
reasons why the yield is less than expected
- reaction may be incomplete so not all the reactants are used up - possibly because the reaction has not been left for long enough or the reaction may reach equilibrium
- some of the products are lost
- there may be other unwanted side reactions taking place
atom economy
mass of the product you want as a % of the mass of all the products you make
atom economy equation
atom economy = (Relative formula mass of useful product /sum of relative formula masses of all the reactants) x 100
% yeild
amount of product you actually make as a % of the amount you should theoretically make
% yeild
amount of product you actually make as a % of the amount you should theoretically make
How do you make a solution?
The solid is dissolved in distilled water and then made up to graduation mark before suffering and then shaking the flask
Concentration of a solution
The amount of solute dissolved in a state volume of solution
In centimetres cubed, how much is 1 decimetre cubed?
1000cm3 = 1dm3
How do you work out concentration in g/dm3?
concentration in g/dm3 =0.0164 g/in² mass of solute in g / volume of solution in dm3
how do u work out concentration in mol/dm3 (2 equations)
concentration in mol/dm3 = number of moles of solute / volume of solution in dm3
concentration in mol/dm3 = concentration in g/dm3 / RFM of solute
Acid-alkali Titration
Used to find the exact volume of an acid that neutralises a fixed volume of alkali or vice versa
method for an acid-alkali titration (CORE PRACTICAL)
- Rise a burette with hydrochloric acid to fill the burette with the acid
- Record initial volume of the acid in the burette
- Rinse pipette with sodium hydroxide solution then fill the pipette to the 25.0cm3 mark and empty the solution in a conical flask
- Add a few drops of methyl orange indicated to the flask on a white tile underneath the burette
- At the acid to the sodium hydroxide solution while swirling the flask
- When the indicator starts to change colour in the tip of the bureau and the sides of the floss with a small amount of distilled water from a wash bottle to ensure that all the acid is in the mixture and add the acid drop by drop until the end point is reached.
- Record the final volume of acid in the burette
- Repeat the experiment apart from the initial rinsing of the bureau and paper until concordant results are obtained.
concordant result
if the results are within 0.2cm3 of each other
End point
The point at which the indicator changes colour in an acid- base titration
Avogadros Law
If the temperature and pressure are the same equal volume of different gases contain an equal number of molecules?
Molar gas volume
The volume occupied by one mole of molecules of any gas (24dm3 at room temp and pressure)
amount of gas equation (at rtp)
moles of gas = volume of gas (dm3) / 24
How is ammonia manufactured?
Through the Haber process
Haber process
Process in which nitrogen and hydrogen reacts together in a reversible reaction
