30 Questions

Stoichiometry explores the relationship between substances in a chemical reaction.

True

Mole ratio is the ratio between the moles of different compounds in a chemical formula.

True

The empirical formula shows the simplest whole-number ratio of the atoms in a compound.

True

The molecular formula represents the actual number of atoms of each element in a molecule of the compound.

True

To determine the molecular formula from the empirical formula, you need the molar mass of the compound and the molar mass of the empirical formula.

True

Conversion between moles, particles, and grams involves multiplication by Avogadro's number or the molar mass.

True

The concentration of solutions is measured in mol/dm^3 and is calculated as Moles ÷ Volume.

True

Acid-base titration is a method to determine the concentration of an unknown solution using a known concentration solution.

True

Molar mass is expressed in grams per mole (g/mol) and is crucial for relating mass to the number of particles.

True

Limiting reactants involve writing and balancing the chemical equation and determining the amount of product formed from each reactant using stoichiometry.

True

Stoichiometry involves converting moles of reactants to moles of products using the mole ratios from the balanced chemical equation.

True

The limiting reactant in a chemical reaction is the one that produces the most amount of product.

False

The formula for percentage yield is: $Percentage Yield = \frac{Actual Yield},{Theoretical Yield} \times 100%$

False

In the example given, the theoretical yield of the reaction is 10 moles.

False

Percentage yield is a measure used in chemistry to determine the efficiency of a chemical reaction based on the actual yield compared to the theoretical yield.

True

Incomplete reactions, impurities, and experimental errors are some reasons for deviation from 100% yield in a chemical reaction.

True

Percentage yield is not an important concept in chemistry and is rarely used in practical applications.

False

The actual yield of a reaction is always higher than the theoretical yield.

False

The limiting reactant is determined by comparing the moles of product obtained from each reactant, and the one producing the least amount of product is the limiting reactant.

True

Achieving a high percentage yield is not an objective in chemical syntheses as it does not indicate the success or efficiency of the reaction.

False

Avogadro's number is approximately 6.022x10^23

True

The number of moles can be calculated using the formula n= Mass of substance / Molar mass of substance

True

Molar mass of a substance is expressed in grams per mole (g/mol)

True

The molar mass of carbon is approximately 12.01 g/mol

True

24 grams of carbon is approximately 1.998 moles of carbon

True

The mole concept helps chemists to link the mass of a substance to the number of particles it contains

True

A mole is a unit used to measure the volume of a substance

False

The number of particles in one mole of a substance is known as Avogadro's number

True

The mass of one mole of a substance can be calculated by adding the atomic masses of all the atoms in a molecule

True

The number of moles can be calculated using the formula n= Molar mass of substance / Mass of substance

False
