Percent by mass (%) = (mass of solute / total mass) x 100%
Mole fraction (Xi) = (number of moles of i / total number of moles)
Percent by volume (% v/v) = (volume of solute / total volume) x 100%
Molality (m) = (number of moles of solute / kg solvent)
Parts per million (ppm) = (number of parts of solute / 1,000,000 parts of solution)
Molarity (M) = (number of moles of solute / liters solution)
Solutions are homogeneous mixtures that have uniform composition throughout the mixture.
Stoichiometry is the quantitative relationship between reactants and products.
Normality (N) = (equivalents of solute / liter solution)
The concentration of a solution is determined by dividing the amount of solute present by the volume of the solution.
The law of conservation of matter states that matter cannot be created or destroyed.
The law of conservation of mass states that matter cannot be created or destroyed during chemical reactions.
Mass percent = (mass of solute / mass of solution) x 100%
A balanced equation shows equal numbers of atoms on both sides of an equation.
Concentration can be expressed as mass percent, mole fraction, molality, ppm, or molarity.
Concentration can be expressed as mass/volume or mole/volume.
Homogenous mixture - A substance composed of two or more substances mixed together so thoroughly that they appear to have no visible boundaries between them.
Stoichiometry refers to the quantitative relationships between the amounts of substances involved in a reaction.
Atomic number = # protons + # neutrons
Chemical equations are used to represent chemical reactions, with reactants shown on the left side and products on the right side separated by an arrow.
A balanced equation shows equal numbers of atoms on both sides, while an unbalanced equation does not have equal numbers of atoms on both sides.
Stoichiometry refers to the quantitative relationships between reactants and products in chemical reactions.
Limiting reagent is the substance whose moles run out first when all reactants have been consumed.
Chemical equations are used to represent chemical changes, with reactants listed above the arrow and products below it.
An unbalanced equation does not have equal numbers of atoms on both sides of the equation.
Heterogenous mixture - A substance made up of two or more different types of particles which do not mix well together.
Solutions are homogeneous mixtures with uniform composition throughout the mixture.
In a chemical reaction, the total amount of matter remains constant but changes its composition.
Balancing chemical equations involves adjusting the coefficients until both sides contain equal numbers of each type of atom.
The coefficients in front of formulas indicate how many atoms of each element are present in one formula unit.
The periodic table is organized by increasing atomic number (proton count).
The law of conservation of matter states that matter cannot be created nor destroyed, only transformed from one form into another.
Isotopes are different forms of the same element with the same atomic number but different mass numbers.
Colloid - A heterogeneous mixture where the dispersed phase is larger than 1 nm but smaller than 1 micrometer.
Mass is conserved during a chemical reaction.
In a chemical reaction, the total mass of all elements present at the beginning is equal to the total mass of all elements present at the end.
Colloid - A heterogeneous mixture where the dispersed phase is larger than 1 nm but smaller than 1 micrometer.
