Molar Mass |
Relative atomic masses of each element added in a molecule |
|
Moles No. Equation |
Mass / Molar Mass |
|
The total mass of reactants before a reaction are the same as the total mass after a reaction. This is because no ______ are created or destroyed during the reaction |
Atoms |
|

Neutralisation Reaction |
Acid + Alkali -------> Salt + Water |
|
Equipment Used in a Neutralisation Reaction |
Burette used to add the alkali Pipette used to measure the alkali using a pipette filler Conical Flask for the reaction to take place in
|
|
End Point |
When the acid and alkali neutralise each other |
|
Phenolphthalein (Colours in Acid and Alkali) |
Pink in Alkali Colourless in Acid |
|
Litmus (Colours in Acid and Alkali) |
Blue in Alkali Red in Acid |
|
Universal Indicator (Colours in Acid and Alkali) |
Contains several different indicators Displays a gradual change of colour, giving a more evident pH No. Not helpful in seeing the exact end point |
|
Titre |
The amount of alkali used to neutralise an acid |
|
Sodium Azide Reaction Products |
Sodium + Nitrogen |
|
Gas Syringe |
Gas-tight glass syringe that usually measures a volume of 100cm3 |
|
Measuring Gas Volumes |
Upturned measuring Cylinder in water connected to a delivering tube from the reaction. The gas from the reaction will collect in the cylinder to make the volume measurable. |
|
Magnesium + Hydrochloric Acid ------> |
Magnesium Chloride + Hydgrogen |
|
Limiting Reactant |
The reactant that runs out first stops the whole reaction, making it the limiting reactant. |
|
Moles of Gas = |
Volume of Gas/Molar Volume |
|
Reversible Reactions |
When a reaction can take place forward and backwards |
|
Equilibrium |
When the rate of the forward reaction is equal to the rate of the backwards reaction When the amount of product is equal to the amount of reactants, equilibrium will be reached One will be exothermic, the other will be endothermic Closed System |
|
Position of the Equilibrium |
If there is more reactants than products, the equilibrium is on the left If there is more products than reactants, the equilibrium is on the right |
|
Pressure Changes and Equilibrium |
If the pressure increases, the equilibrium moves to the side with the lower amount of gas molecules |
|
Temperature Changes and Equilibrium |
If the temperature increases, the equilibrium will move in the direction of the endothermic reaction as it will take in the heat. The reaction will speed up as the particles are receiving more energy with the excess heat. |
|
Uses of Sulfuric Acid |
Fertilisers Chemicals Processing Metal Ores Paper Production Oil Refining Making Polymers |
|
Raw Materials in the Contact Process |
Sulfur Water Oxygen |
|
Stage One of the Contact Process (With Symbol Equation) |
Sulfur burned in air to produce sulfur dioxide S + O2 -------> SO2 |
|
Stage Two of the Contact Process (With Symbol Equation) |

|
Stage Three of The Contact Process (With Symbol Equation) |
SO3 + H2O --------> H2SO4 |
|
Conditions of The Contact Process |
Vanadium Oxide (V3O5) 450 degrees (forward reaction is exothermic (greater yield achieved by a lower temperature) but the reaction would be too slow at a lower temperature)-Compromise Atmospheric Pressure
|
|
Ionisation in Strong Acids |
Strong acids ionise completely in solution to produce H+ Ions |
|
Ionisation in Weak Acids |
Weak Acids only partly ionise in solution, many molecules not producing H+ Ions Reaction is reversible |
|
Solutions Containing Ions in Electrolysis (The role of Ions) |
Ions are free to move and so carry the electricity from on electrode to the other. Acids containing H+ Ions therefore conduct electricity |
|
Electrical Conductivity |
Stronger acids have a higher electrical conductivity as they produce more H+ Ions then weaker acids, allowing more electricity to be conducted by the ions |
|
Limescale |
Deposit of Calcium Carbonate that coats the surface of different appliances that require a heating element |
|
Getting Rid of Limescale |
Weak acids will react with the limescale, removing it, without damaging the appliance |
|
Reaction Rate in Strong and Weak Acids |
Strong acids have a quicker reaction rate as they have more H+ ions which fully ionise in solution Weak acids have a slower reaction rate due to less H+ ions to ionise |
|
Volume of Gas Production in Weak Acids |
The same as strong acids as the equilibrium will eventually change, releasing more H+ ions to continue the reaction. The reaction rate is slower but the amount of gas produced is the same. |
|
Precipitation Reaction |
When two different solutions form together to form a solid precipitate. |
|
Lead Nitrate + Pottasium Iodide |
Potassium Nitrate + Lead Iodide |
|
Collision Frequency for Ions in Solution |
As ions are free to move when in solution, collision frequency is very fast. The reaction is really fast. |
