?
What is the mass of the following: Electron? Proton? Neutron?
E = 0.0005, P = 1, N = 1
1 of 15
what is the mass number?
The total number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom.
2 of 15
Do atoms of the same elment have the same mass number or atomic number?
Atomic number - this is the number of protons (and therefore electrons).
3 of 15
What are isotopes?
Atoms of the same element with different numbers of neutrons.
4 of 15
How do you work you the number of neutrons?
Minus the atomic number (no of protons) from the mass number (number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus)
5 of 15
How many protons, electrons and neutrons are there in the atom flourine?
E = 9, P = 9, N = 10
6 of 15
What is RAM?
Relative atomic mass - Ar
7 of 15
What is a mole?
The RAM of an elemnt in grams - eg a mole of sodium has a mass of 23g
8 of 15
What is RFM
Relative formula mass - Mr. This is all the RAM in a substance added together to find the total of the substance/compound etc.
9 of 15
Calculate the Mr of Calcium Chloride CaCl2
(Ca = 40) + (Cl = 35.5) + (Cl = 35.5) = 111
10 of 15
How do you work out the mass of a mole of any substance?
Work out the RFM and add grams at the end
11 of 15
How do we work out what percentage one element is of a compound?
1. Find the RFM 2. Divide the RAM of the substance you want to find by the RFM 3. Times by 100 + round if necessary
12 of 15
Find the percentage of carbon in CO2
1. RFM = 44 2. (RAM of carbon = 12 so..) 12/44 = 0.2727... 3. 0.273 x 100 = 27.3%
13 of 15
What is the empirical formula?
Simplest ratio of the atoms or ions in a compound. e.g CH3 or H2O
14 of 15
Find the empirical formula of the compound that contains 70% iron and 30% oxygen
Iron = 70/56 = 1.25, Oxygen = 30/16 = 1.875 Simplest ratio = 1.25/1.25 = 1 and 1.875/1.25 = 1.5 so Empirical formula = 1:1.5 = 2:3 so Fe2O3
