Chemistry 121 Formulas and Constants
Fahrenheit (K): \dfrac{9}{5}\left( °C+32\right)
Celsius (°C): \dfrac{5}{9}\left( °F-32\right)
Kelvin (K): °C+273
Kelvin → Celsius: K-273
Density: \dfrac{m}{V}
Units of Measurement
Physical Quantity | Name of Units | Abbreviation |
Mass | gram | g |
Length | meter | m |
Time | seconds | s |
Temperature | Celsius or Kelvins | °C or K |
Amount of a substance | mole | mol |
Volume | cubic centimeter or liter | cm³ or l |
1 amu = 1.66054\cdot 10^{-24}\ g
Atomic weight = \Sigma [(mass)(% fractional abundance)] for ALL isotopes
Percentage to decimal, multiply by 100
Decimal to percentage, divide by 100
Example of set up: amu = (mass)(% fractional abundance) + (mass)(% fractional abundance) + (mass)(% fractional abundance)
3 total isotopes in this example
Percent composition (% element) = [(# of atoms)(molecular weight)/ molar mass of the compound] x 100
Avogadro’s number = 6.02\times 10^{23} atoms or molecules
Percent yield = (actual yield/theoretical yield) x 100%
