The Mole Concept

• What is the equation to find the number of particles in a compound?

  moles x avogadro's constant
• What is the ideal gas equation?

  pV=nrT

  p - pressure = 101kPa at room pressure

  r - ideal gas constant = 8.314 j/mol/K

  T - temperature = 293K at room temperature

  V - volume
• What is atom economy?

  how well the atoms have been utilised
• What is the equation for atom economy?

  atom economy = sum of molar masses of desired products/sum of molar masses of all products x 100%
• What are the benefits for sustainability of developing chemical processes with a high atom economy?

  makes industrial processes more efficient

  preserves raw materials

  reduce waste
