What you'll learn

Chemical formulae and balanced equations, relative atomic and molecular mass, the mole, and calculations involving mass, gas volume, concentration, percentage yield and purity.

  • Chemical formulae are deduced from ratios or ionic charges
  • A balanced equation has the same number of each atom on both sides
  • Relative atomic mass and relative molecular/formula mass
  • The mole links particle count to mass
  • Gas volume at room temperature and pressure (r.t.p.)
  • Percentage mass of an element in a compound
  • Empirical formula is the simplest whole-number mole ratio
  • Molecular formula is a whole-number multiple of the empirical formula
  • The mole ratio from a balanced equation drives reacting-mass and reacting-volume calculations
  • Limiting reactant, concentration, percentage yield and percentage purity
