    Study Notes

    Conservation of Matter

    • Chemical equations are useful for interpreting chemical reactions.
    • Students will learn how to calculate percent yield and theoretical yield.
    • Students will learn to identify limiting and excess reagents.
    • The law of conservation of mass (or matter) states that the amount of matter before and after a reaction remains the same.

    Mole-to-Mole Conversion

    • The number of moles of a substance in a chemical reaction can be determined if the number of moles of another substance is known.
    • Mole conversion factors are based on the coefficients in a balanced chemical equation.
    • Example: 4NH₃ + 3O₂ → 2N₂ + 6H₂O

    Mole-to-Mass Conversion

    • Grams are a convenient unit for measuring reactants and products in a lab.
    • To convert between moles and grams, use the molar mass of the substance.
    • Example: How many grams of O₂ are needed to react with 8 moles of NH₃?

    Mass-to-Mass Conversion

    • This conversion is used when the mass of one substance is known, and the mass of another substance is needed.
    • Example: How many grams of O₂ are needed to react with 250 g of NH₃?

    Reaction Yield

    • Theoretical yield: maximum amount of product possible.
    • Actual yield: amount of product obtained in a lab.
    • Percentage yield: efficiency of a reaction, calculated as (actual yield / theoretical yield) * 100.
    • Limiting reactant: reactant that limits the amount of product.
    • Excess reactant: reactant present in excess of the limiting reactant.
