Q

What are the benefits for sustainability of developing chemical processes with a high atom economy?

A
  1. Less waste product produced, therefore less waste product is needed to be disposed of in the environment
  2. Lower energy demands for reaction conditions are cheaper to run and better for the environment
  3. Non-renewable sources are better for the environment

Q

What are the ideal ways in which gases behave?

A
  1. They are in continuous motion
  2. No intermolecular forces experienced
  3. Exert a pressure when they collide with each other or container
  4. No kinetic energy is lost in the collisions
  5. When temperature increases, kinetic energy of gases increases

Q

Does 100% yield mean 100% atom economy and why?

A
  • No
  • Even if all reactants are converted into products, not all products of the reaction will be the desired product

Q

What are the 4 common state symbols?

A
(s) = solid
(L) = liquid
(aq) = aqueous
(g) = gaseous
20
Q

How do you calculate the mass of 1 mole of the element?

A

mass = mol x mr

21
Q

0°C is equal to how much kelvin (K)?

A

273 K

22
Q

What does the concentration of a solution mean?

A

It is the amount of solute dissolved in 1 dm3 of solvent

23
Q

How do you rearrange the ideal gas equation to work out volume

A

V = (nRT) / P

24
Q

What is a substitution reaction?

A

A substitution reaction is one where some atoms from one reactant are swapped with atoms from another reactant - it forms at least two products.

25
Q

What do the terms concentrated and dilute mean?

A

Concentrated = large amount of solute per dm3 of solvent

Dilute = small amount of solute per dm3 of solvent

26
Q

What does the percentage yield mean?

A

The efficiency of which reactants are converted into products

27
Q

What is a species in a chemical reaction?

A

Any particle that takes a part in a reaction

28
Q

What are the reasons for not obtaining 100% yield?

A
  1. Reaction may be at equilibrium
  2. The reactants may be impure
  3. Side reactions could occur
  4. Reactants or products may be lost when transferring
  5. Loss of products during seperation and purification
29
Q

What is the ideal gas equation

A

pV = nRT

30
Q

How is atom economy calculated

A

(mr of desired product / sum of all the mr of all the products) x 100

31
Q

Why do different gas particles occupy the same volume?

A

The gas particles are very spread out, hence individual differences have no effect

32
Q

How is percentage yield calculated?

A

(actual amount of product / theoretical amount of product ) x 100

33
Q

What does a low atom economy mean and why is it not ideal?

A
  • Low atom economy means there are waste products produces
  • It costs money to separate the desired product from the waste products and more money to dispose of the products safely
  • Less sustainable, many raw materials are in limited supply. Raw materials come from renewable sources and are better for the environment than materials from non-renewable sources.
34
Q

How do you convert moles into grams?

A

mass = moles x mr

35
Q

Define molar gas volume

A

The volume per mole of gas molecules

36
Q

How do you calculate moles when concentration and volume are given?

A

moles = concentration x volume

37
Q

What is a standard solution?

A

A solution of known concentration

38
Q

How do you calculate moles when mass and mr are given?

A

Moles = mass / mr

39
Q

What is the equation to calculate solution concentration?

A

concentration = moles / volume

40
Q

What is the theoretical yield?

A

Theoretical yield is the mass of product that should be made in a reaction if no chemicals are lost in the process

41
Q

Describe the steps taken to prepare a standard solution

A
  1. Weigh the solute
  2. In a beaker dissolve the solute using the solvent
  3. Pour the solution into a volumetric flask
  4. Rinse the beaker using the solution and add it to the flask
  5. Add solvent to the flask carefully until it reaches the graduation line
  6. Mix the solution thoroughly to ensure complete mixing
