define relative mass
it is the ratio of the mass of one particle to 1/12 the mass of an atom of carbon-12.
define isotopes
they are atoms of the same element with the same number of protons but different number of neutrons
define relative isotopic mass of an isotope
it is the ratio of the mass of one atom of the isotope to 1/12 of an atom of carbon-12.
define relative atomic mass of an element
it is the ratio of the average mass of an atom in the isotopic mixture to 1/12 the mass of an tom of carbon-12.
define relative molecular mass of a molecule
it is the ratio of the average mass of a molecule to 1.12 the mass of an atom of carbon-12.
what is the relative formula mass for ionic compounds.
it is the sum of Ar of every atom present in its formula unit.
how many dps do we leave Ar in
1 dp
define molar mass
it is the mass of 1 mole of substance.
what is Avogadro’s Law?
it states that equal volumes of all gases under the same conditions of temperature and pressure contain the same numer of molecules/atoms.
mole ratio = volume ratio
define molar volume
it is the volume occupied by 1 mole of the gas.
what is the molar volume at stp and at rtp?
stp: 22.7 dm^3 mol^-1.
rtp: 24.0 dm^3 mol^-1
what remains constant after dilution? What is the formula to use for dilution questions?
no. of moles of solute remain constant.
formula: CoVo = C1V1
what to take note of during volumetric analysis
a portion of a solution may be taken out of the original volume to conduct reaction. normally its 25.0/250 cm^3.
either have to x10 or /10 by in working.
