AQA A-Level Chemistry | Amount of Substance Study Guide & Exam Questions

Calculating empirical formula 1. % by mass
2. Divided by Ar
3. Divide by smallest




Calculate molecular formula Relative molecular mass divided by relative mass of empirical formula


equation for amount of moles (Avogadro constant) amount of moles = number of particles / Avogadro constant


4 reasons for lack of 100% percentage yield? loss by mechanical transfer, loss during separating technique, unwanted side
reactions, reaction not complete


units 1cm3 - 1ml
1dm3 - 1l
1dm3 - 1000cm3


what is titration an example of? volumetric analysis


2 reasons why conical flasks are used in titration? 1. can swirl reactant easily
2. sloped sides ensure solution can not spill out


what is the dilution factor? how is it calculated? the amount the original solution is diluted by.
new total volume/ volume of original solution added


what is the dilution factor of 25cm3 to 250cm3 10


what is important about the first titre? it should be rough and bigger than the two accurate titrations




what is a standard solution? a solution of known concentration


what should values be recorded to in a titration? 0.05cm3


what should two accurate titre values be? within 0.10cm3 of each other


how to convert from gdm-3 to moldm-3? gdm-3 multiplied by Mr

, AQA A-Level Chemistry | Amount of Substance Study Guide & Exam Questions

equation for percentage error? error of equipment/volume of solution


what kind of titration is phenolphthalein used for? a strong and weak acid-strong base


what is the colour of phenolphthalein in 3 solutions? acid - colourless
neutral - colourless
alkaline - pink


what is the colour of methyl orange in 3 solutions? acid - red
neutral - orange
alkaline - yellow


which solution goes in the conical flask? alkali




which solution goes in the burette? acid


what is the molar volume? 1 mole of a gas occupies a volume of 24dm3 at room temperature and pressure


equation for moles (gas) moles = volume / 24dm3


what three factors does the ideal gas equation relate? 1. as pressure increases, the volume of a gas decreases
2. as temperature increases, the volume of a gas increases
3. the amount of gas in moles is directly proportional to its volume


Ideal Gas Eqaution pV = nRT


How do you convert Celsius to Kelvin? K = C + 273


what is volume measured in ideal gas equation? m3


how to convert from m3, dm3, cm3 1m3 = 1000dm3 = 1000000cm3


what does percentage yield not take into account? any waste products
