Unit 3-Quantites in Chemistry Flashcards
calculate molar mass
grams per mole
from the periodic table
law of definite proportions
steps
percent composition to mass to move to mole ratio to WNR to simplest formula
calculate the number of entities from mass
use the relationship
6.02x10^23 over 1 mol
molecular formula determination
take the simplest formula and find the grams per mole. divide the mass of the molecular formula by the mass of the simplest formula and multiply by the simplest formula to get the molecular formula
stoichiometry
using the mole concept and balanced chemical equation to solve problems
mass – mass problems
given the grams of one substance to find the grams of another substance using a balanced chemical equation
percentage yield
actual yield divided by theoretical yield multiplied by 100
actual yield
The amount measured in an experiment
theoretical yield
from stoichiometric calculations
why does something have a greater than 100% yield?
air could react with reagents
what would cause a yield less than 100?
spattering, impurities of reagents, loss through transfer, unideal conditions
limiting reagent problems
steps
- underlined the given and asked to find
- balance the chemical equation
- determine the moles of the given from the mass
- which is the limiting reactants? She was one given and multiply by the mall relationship from equation if the number is less that then not given is limited is more the other is limited
Continue steps with limited reactant!!!! - determine the number of moles of asked to find
- determine the mass of asked to find
- therefore statement
balancing equations
