Q

What’s the formula for finding the percentage mass of an element in a compound?

A

Relative atomic mass x number of atoms (of an element) divided by the relative formula mass (of whole compound) x 100

Q

Finding the empirical formula (step by step)

A
  1. List all the elements in the compound (usually two or three).
  2. Underneath them, write their experimental masses.
  3. Divide each mass by the relative atomic mass for the particular element.
  4. Turn the numbers into a ratio.
    By multiplying/dividing them by well chosen numbers.
  5. Get the ratio to its simplest form.

PRACTICE.

Q

Calculating the masses in reactions.

A
  1. Write out the balanced equation.
  2. Work out the relative formula mass- for the parts you need.
  3. Apply the rule- divide to get one, multiply to get all.
