What is the conservation of mass
The law of conservation of mass states that no atoms are lost or made during a chemical reaction so the mass of the products equals the mass of the reactants.
What is the limiting reactant
The reactant that is completely used up since it limits the amount of products formed
What is a mole
The mole is the unit for amount of substance. The symbol for the unit mole is mol.
What is a relative formula mass
The sum of the relative atomic masses of the atoms in the numbers shown in the formula.
What is the percentage yield
The percentage ratio of the actual yield of product from a reaction compared with the theoretical yield.
What is concentration
The amount of substance in a certain volume of solution
What is the actual yoeld
Amount of product actually produced by a feaction
What is atom economy
The measure of the amount of starting materials that end up as useful products
What is the theoretical yield
The maximum amount of product that could be produced from the given reactants assuming a complete reaction takes place
How to get the relative formula mass
Its mass number added to another
How to calculate the % mass of an element in a compound
Relative atomic mass x number of atoms of that element/relative formula mass times 100
Example to find the % mass of an element in a compound. Na2CO3.Finding sodium in it
Ar of sodium=23 Ar of carbon=12. Ar of oxygen=16
Relative formula mass=(2x23)+12+(3x16)=106
23x2/106 x100=43%
A mixture contains 20% iron irons by mass.What mass of iron chloride (Fecl2) would you need to provide the iron ions in 50g of the mixture? Example
Ar of Fe=56 Ar of cl=35.5
Mixutre of ion contains=10g of iron
56/56(2x35.5) x100=44.09%
10/44.09/100=23 g
What is percentage composition also know as?
Percentage mass
How to calculate relative atomic mass
Its a numbers mass number
How to calculate the number of moles
Mass in g (of an element or compound) / Ar or Mr(of the element or compound)
What is avogardos constant
the number of atoms, molecules, or ions in a mole of any substance (i.e., 6.02 × 10-23 per mol)
What is titration
a method for measuring the volumes of two solutions that react together
What is the end point
the point in a titration where the reaction is complete and titration should stop
What is burette
a long glass tube with a tap at one end and markings to show volumes of liquid; used to add precisely known volumes of liquids to a solution in a conical flask below it
What is the concordant
when you have two titration results that are within 0.1cm3 of each other. These precise results can then be used to
calculate an accurate mean
What is a bulb pipette
a glass tube used to measure accurate volumes of liquids
What is uncertainty
Range of measurements each side of the mean
How to calculate uncertainty
Calculate mean and then calculate range and the difference is the uncertainty.Make sure before you always add a +/-
