Chp 4 Stoichiometry Flashcards
What is a limiting reagent?
Reactant that is used up first in reaction (others are excess reagents)
How to find limiting reagent?
Grams to moles to moles; when asked for mass of limiting reagent with other thing, use moles to grams of given qtty
Difference between theoretical yield and actual yield?
Theoretical- all limiting reagent is reacted. MAX results
Actual- product that is realistically attained
How to calculate percent yield?
(Actual/Theoretical) • 100%
What is combustion look like?
—- + O2 -> H2O + CO2
What is the deal when wanting to find empirical formula of combustion reaction?
*Find g of C and H via stoichiometry
*find O by
g of O=g of samp - (gC+gH)
What’re the units of concentration?
mol/Liters
Look at gravimetric analysis in Notes **
Please just do it
Percent of a certain metal?
- Find percent of in the given compound product, multiply by actual mass of compound
- put answer over sample in problem.
Fundamentals of stoichiometry?
Balanced Eq.
GRAMS to MOLES to MOLES to GRAMS
What is concentration?
Mol/L
