Study Notes
Chemistry Fundamentals Overview
- Moles in chemistry are calculated using the formula n=Mass/Molar mass.
- Molar mass is expressed in grams per mole (g/mol) and is crucial for relating mass to the number of particles.
- Conversion between moles, particles, and grams involves multiplication by Avogadro's number or the molar mass.
- Stoichiometry explores the relationship between substances in a chemical reaction.
- Mole ratio is the ratio between the moles of different compounds in a chemical formula.
- Concentration of solutions is measured in mol/dm^3 and is calculated as Moles ÷ Volume.
- Acid-base titration is a method to determine the concentration of an unknown solution using a known concentration solution.
- The empirical formula shows the simplest whole-number ratio of the atoms in a compound.
- The molecular formula represents the actual number of atoms of each element in a molecule of the compound.
- 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.
- Calculating involving masses includes gathering mass data, converting masses to moles, determining the ratio of moles, and writing the empirical formula.
- Limiting reactants involve writing and balancing the chemical equation and determining the amount of product formed from each reactant using stoichiometry.
