    Topic: Chemical Equations and Calculations

    • Chemical Equations: Represent chemical reactions, showing reactants and products with their formulas and relative amounts.
    • Balancing Equations: Ensure the same number of each atom type on both sides of the equation, following the law of conservation of mass.
    • Stoichiometry: The calculation of reactant and product quantities in a chemical reaction using balanced equations.
    • Molar Mass: The mass of one mole of a substance (g/mol), calculated from its atomic weights.
    • Mole Concept: A mole (mol) is the amount of substance containing Avogadro's number (6.022 x 10²³) of particles.
    • Calculating Molar Mass: Determine the molar mass of a compound by summing the molar masses of its constituent atoms. Use the periodic table for atomic weights.
    • Mole Conversions: Relate moles of a substance to its mass (grams) or number of particles (atoms, molecules). Use the molar mass as a conversion factor.
    • Stoichiometric Calculations: Use balanced equations to find unknown quantities of reactants or products. Determine moles or mass of substances via mole ratios from the balanced equation.
    • Examples of Calculations: Use example calculations for various chemical reactions.
      • Example calculations involve finding the moles or grams of reactants or products in various chemical reactions. Look for moles to grams or grams to moles conversions in the notes. These are stoichiometry problems.
