Balanced in the terms of atoms of each element on either side |
|
What is the Mr or a compound |
Sum of the relative atomic masses of the atoms shown in the formula |
|
In a balanced chemical equation the sum of the Mr of the reactants= |
Sum of Ar of the products |
|
Why may some reactions appear to have a change in mass? |
A reactant or product could be a gas which it's mass has not been taken into account for |
|
How are chemical amounts measured? |

|
Formula for moles no. Particles |
Moles×avogadros constant=no . particles |
|
Mass mole and mr |
Mass=mole×mr |
|
How to work out reacting masses |
Balanced symbol equations Mr of each Mr taking into account amounts Convert to mass by adding units Scale to quantity needed by dividing |
|
Limiting reactants |
Use an excess of one to use up all of the other Reactant that is all used up is called the limiting reactant |
|
Why is it not always possible to obtain theoretical yield? |
Reaction is reversible Some product may be lost Some reactants may react in a unexpected way |
|
How do u calculate percentage yeild |
Mass of products÷maximum theoretical yeild mass of product×100 |
|
What's atom econemy |
