Week 2 Flashcards
Limiting Reactant
The solution that is consumed first in a chemical reaction
Density
mass/volume
intensive property
independent of quantity of matter
Solute
substance present in smaller amounts (what is being dissolved)
Solvent
substance present in larger amount (does the dissolving)
Dilute solutions
small amount of solute compared to solvent
Concentrated Solutions
larger amount of solute compared to solvent
Concentration
amount of solute in a given amount of solution
Molarity
How concentration is measured
Molarity (formula)
M = amount of solute (in moles)/amount of solution (in L)
Density (units)
g/mol
Theoretical Yield (formula)
expected number of moles formed multiplied by the molar mass
Partial Pressure
Partial pressure = total pressure times Xi
Mole Fraction
xi = amount of moles/total amount of moles
(xi = ni/ntot
Percent Yield
actual yield/theoretical yield times 100%
