Acids bases and salts

Cards (30)

  • Acid + Metal → Salt + Hydrogen
  • Acid + Base → Salt + Water
  • Acid + CarbonateSalt + water + carbon dioxide
  • Acid + alkali → Salt + water
  • Acid + ammoniaSalt
  • Hydrochloric acid = HCl (aq)
  • Sulfuric acid = H2SO4
  • Nitric acid = HNO3 (aq)
  • A salt is a compound formed when an H+ in an acid is replaced with a postive (metal) ion
  • A hydrated salt has water within its structure
  • Anhydrous salt contains no water molecules
  • Water of crystallisation is when molecules are trapped in a lattice (crystal)
  • A base is a solution that accepts protons
    · A base that is soluble in water is an alkali
    · Alkali form OH- ions in water
  • An acid releases H+ ions when added to water. A proton donor
  • Strong acids fully dissociate when disolved in water
  • Weak acids partiallly dissociate when dissolved in water
    · This means that a strong acid produces more H+ ions has a lower pH than a weak acid with the same concentration
  • Molecular formula = the actual number of atoms of each element in a molecule, a multiple of the emperical formula
  • Emperical formula = the simplest whole number ratio of atoms of each element in a compound
  • Number of moles of a substance = Mass of a substance / Mr of substance
  • Molar mass is the mass of one mole of a substance in grams.
  • Moles = Number of particles/6.02x10^23
  • Relative isotopic mass = The mass of one isotope compared to 1/12 the mass of carbon 12
  • Relative atomic mass = The mean mass of an atom of an element compared to 1/12th the mass of an atom of carbon-12
  • Mass number = number of protons + number of neutrons in an atom of an element
  • Atomic number = number of protons in an atom of an element.
  • Isotope = Atom of the same element with a different number of neutrons but the same number of protons
  • PV = nRT
    · P = Pressure pa
    · V = vol cm
    · n = Number of moles
    · R = Gas constant Jmol-1k-1
    · T = temprature kelvin
  • Moles = Volume of gas / Volume of container x 24
  • Moles = Volume x concentration
  • Number of molesof gas = volume of gas / 24
