Topic C3 - Quantitative Chemistry Flashcards
How do you work out isotopes?
Neutrons + Protons
How many electrons fill up each shell?
1st = 2 2nd = 8 3rd = 8
What does one mole = ?
6.02 x 10^23
particles of a substance
The number of a moles in a sample =
Mass of that element or compound
——————————————————
Relative Formula Mass
What is a mole?
A unit we use to measure the amount of chemical we have.
What is Avogrados Constant?
6.02 x 10^23
Relative formula mass =
All atomic mass values added together for all the atoms in its formula
e.g CO2
Carbon = 12 Oxygen = 16. Oxygen x2 = 32
12+32 = 44 = relative formula mass
Relative formula mass symbol?
M r
Relative Atomic Mass symbol
A r
Can atoms be created or destroyed in a chemical reaction?
No
In chemical reaction what happens to the total mass of the reactants and products?
They will both be the same.
MASS IS CONSERVED
How could there be a decrease in mass during a chemical reaction?
If a gas is made during the reaction and escapes the vessel
It’s mass is no longer accounted for.
How could there be an increase in mass during a chemical reaction?
If a gas from the air is a reactant. And so it’s mass is added to the mass in the vessel.
What do balanced equations tell us about moles?
How many moles of each substance take part in the reaction.
Concentration definition
Amount of substance dissolved in a certain volume of solution.
What happens to concentration when you increase the amount of solute?
Concentration increases when amount of solute increases.
What happens too concentration when the volume of solvent is increased?
Concentration decreases when the volume of solvent increases.
What is the formula for concentration?
Concentration
=
Mass of solute ————————— Volume of solvent
What is MASH?
Metal + acid —> salt + hydrogen
What is MASH but with metal carbonate?
Metal carbonate + acid
—>
salt + water + carbon dioxide
What is PANIC?
Positive
Is
Anode
Negative
Is
Cathode
Limiting reactant definition
A reactant that gets completely used up in a reaction, so limits the amount of product formed.
How can the mass of the product be worked out with the limiting reactant.
1) write a balanced equation for reaction
2) divide limiting reactant mass by its relative formula mass to find the no. Of moles
3) use balanced equation to find the number of moles of the product
4) multiply that number of moles by the relative formula mass of the product to work out its mass
What 2 ways can pH be measured?
1) Universal Indicator - gives a pH colour
2) pH probe - gives accurate value of the pH
