  • Quantative Chemistry
    • Relative Formula Mass
      • All of the relative atomic masses added together
        • How heavy an atom is compared with the mass of an atom of carbon 12 - usually the mass number
      • One mole
        • Number of moles is the mass in g/Mr
    • Percentage by mass
      • At x number of atoms / Mr  x100
    • Empirical Formula
      • Simplest ratio of the number of atoms in the molecule
      • 1) list all elemnts in compound
        • 2) write percentage over relative formula/atomic mass
          • 3) use the answer of the first fraction to get 1 then use the answer to the 2nd fraction over the answer to the 1st fraction
            • This will give you the ratio, simplify if needed
    • Calculating Masses
      • 1) write out the balanced equation
        • 2) write the molar ratio
          • 3) use the formula n=m/mr
            • 4) substitute into the molar ratio
              • 5) rearrange the equation to get the mass
    • Percentage yield
      • Shows the overall success of the experiment
        • percentage yield = amount of product produced / minimum amount of product possible   x100
      • Amount of product you get is the yield
        • Why you don't get 100% yield
          • impurities in reaction
          • other products being producd
          • residue loss to surroundings
          • reversible reactions
            • reaction can go both ways, never converted to products
