  • 1 MOL AT room temp

    24 dm cubes
  • atom economy
    useful product/total reactants *100
  • 2.06 *10 to the power of 23
    avagradros constant
  • habers process word equation
    nitrogen + hyrdogen <-> ammonia
  • equilibrium is reached faster when *3 

    higher temp and pressure and conc and using a catalyst
  • conditions for habers process
    200 atm 450 degrees and iron catalyst
  • 3 elements used in fertilizers
    phosphorus, pottasium, nitrogen
  • ammonia fertilizer reaction

    ammonia + nitric acid -> ammonium nitrate
  • describe preparation of ammonium sulfate in lab
    ammonia and dilute sulfuric react, it is small scale and takes a few stages
  • chemical reactions stop when
    reactant is used up
  • hydrogen and oxygen produce a voltage in a
    fuel cell, oxygen and hyrdogen pumped through electrodes electrolyte is an acid
  • 2 benefits of hydrogen fueld energy
    only water is to waste, continuous if reactants are supplied
  • two negatived of hydrogen fuel
    hard to transport, dangerous, expensive
  • what is aluminium used for and why
    aircraft, strong but low density
  • what is copper used for and why
    wires, conducts electricity well
  • what is gold used for and why
    jewlery, resistant to corrosion due to unreactivity
  • transition metals properties
    form coloured compounds, good catalysts, high melting points, high density
  • what is corrosion
    the destruction of a material by chemical reactions with substances in the enviroment
  • 3 ways rusting can be prevented
    painting, oils and grease, coating with plastic
  • what does aluminium have to prevent corrosion
    oxide coating, excludes reactants of rusting
  • what absorbs water vapour
    desiccant
  • what is sacrificial protection
    when the metal you want to protect is galvanised with a more reactive metal
  • what does electroplating do 

    improves apperance and excludes oxygen and water to prevent rusting
  • how is electroplating done
    metal you want to be plated at the cathode and the metal plating at the anode, the eletrolyte solution must contain ions from the metal which will form the outer coating, a DC power supply is connected
  • steel is a mixture of
    carbon and iron
  • low carbon steels are
    easily chaped
  • high carbon steels are
    used for cutting tools
  • rusting requires
    iron oxygen and water
  • concordant means
    within 0.2 cm3 of each other
  • phosphate rock + phosphoric acid =
    calcium phosphate
  • difference between a battery and a cell
    cell is one cell battery is multiple
  • positive of using fuel cells over batteries
    less pollutant, high efficiency and reliable
  • what causes metals to corrode

    oxygen reacts to form metal oxide
  • what is corrosion with a metal (the reaction)
    redox (metal loses electrons and oxygen gains electrons)
  • what metal is used for sacraficial protection of iron
    zinc
  • why is iron alloyes to form steel
    it is very brittle, makes it have more desirable qualities
  • what is magnallium

    alloy of magnesium and alluminium
  • what is magnalium used for

    lighter and stronger and more resistant to corrosion, cars and aircrafts
  • what is brass

    alloy of copper and zinc
  • what is brass used for

    hard and resistant to corrosion, decorative hardwares
