Quantitive Flashcards
What is the relative molecular mass of an element?
The relative molecular ass of a substance is the sun of the masses of all the atoms present in the formula of that element or compound - Mr
How do you calculate the percentage of an element in a compound?
% of an element =
Mass of the element in the compound / Relative Formula Mass X 100
What is a mole?
The relative formula mass of a substance in grams is known as the mole of the substance.
How many particles are in one mole of a substance.
One mole of a substance is 6.02 X 10 (to the power of 23) particles of the substance. It is obtained by weighing out the RAM or RFM in grams
What is the equation for Moles:
Moles = Mass of a substance / RAM or RFM
mass in grams always
What is the equation to find the Mass of a substance?
Mass = Moles X Ar or Mr
Why can we interpret chemical reactions quantitatively?
As no atoms are made or lost
