How to find the mass when concentration is given?
Mass = concentration (g/dm3) x volume (dm3)
4
New cards
dm3 to cm3
1 dm3 = 1000 cm3
5
New cards
Covert cm3 to dm3
divide by 1000

How to calculate the mass of the product when you are given the limiting reactant?

By using the mass of the limiting reactant and the balanced reaction equation.

\

1. write out the balanced formula


2. Work out relative formula masses (Mr) of the reactants and products
3. Find out how many moles there is in the substance you want
4. Use the balanced equation to workout how many moles there will be of the other substance.
5. use the number of moles to calculate the mass

New cards
Why is one reactant always in excess?
To make sure all the other reactant is completely used up.
10
New cards
What is the limiting reactant?
The reactant which is completely used up is called the limiting reactant because it limits the amount of products.
11
New cards
Number of particles in a substance
Moles x Avogadro’s number
12
New cards
What is the conservation of mass?
no atoms are lost or made during a chemical reaction so the mass of the product is the mass of the reactants.

How do you calculate the percentage mass of an element from a compound ?

You calculate the RFM of the specific compound asked and divide it by the RFM of the whole element/reaction (whole side basically)
