27
Moles
a standard scientific unit for measuring large quantities of an atoms, molecules (6.02 × 1023)
28
Concentration
The amount of solute contained within a given volume. C = n/V - C: concentration (M or mol dm-3 or mol L-1) - n: amount of substance (mol) - V: volume of the solution (dm3 or L)
29
Subscripts
The number on the lower right of a element or compound. This shows how many atoms are in a element or compound.
30
Excess reactant
the substance that takes part in the reaction and has extra amount needed to react
31
Coefficient ( in a balanced equation)
The number in front of a substance. The number shows you the ratios of molecules / atoms of each and the ratio of moles.
32
Reactant
The starting substance(s). The original substance before changing due to any chemical reactions.
33
Percent Yield
The ratio of the actual yield to the theoretical yield
34
Dilution
The action of making the liquid more dilute (example: add more water or any solvent into the solution)
35
Empirical formula
a formula that shows the ratio of elements present in the compound.
36
Limiting reactant
The reactant/substance which would totally be comsumed when the chemical reaction is complete
