Chemistry C2.3
  1. The Mass of Atoms
    1. Relative mass of protons and neutrons = 1
      1. Mass number = protons + neutrons
        1. Number of protons and electrons are always the same
      2. Isotopes - atoms of the same element with different number of neutrons
        1. Mass number is the top number
        2. Masses of Atoms and Moles
          1. Relative atomic mass (Ar)is used to compare atom masses
            1. Relative atomic mass = mass number
              1. Relative formula (Mr) = mass numbers added together
              2. Relative formula mass in grams is call one mole of that susbstance
                1. NaOH = 23 + 16 + 1 = 40 1 mole of NaOH = 40g
                2. Percentage and Formulae
                  1. Percentage = relative atomic mass / relative formula mass x100
                    1. % of carbon in CO2 = 12 + 16 +16 = 44 12/44 x100 = 27.3%
                      1. Empirical Formula - simplest ratio of atoms/ions in a compound
                        1. Divide mass of each element by its Ar and convert to simplest ratio
                          1. Formula of hydrocarbon that contains 80% carbon: Carbon = 80/12 = 6.67 Hydrogen = 20/1 = 20 6.67/6.67 = 1 20/6.67 = 3 Formula = CH3
                      2. Equations and Calculations
                        1. Balanced symbol equations show how many moles of a substance are used e.g. 2Mg + 02 = 2 moles of Mg and 1 O
                          1. 24 + 24 + 16 = 80g
                          2. 1g of Mg = 80/48 MgO 5g of Mg = 80/48 x 5 = 8.33g
                            1. You can work in moles or relative masses for calculations
                            2. Instrumental Analysis
                              1. Modern instrumental methods - quick, accurate, sensitive BUT expensive need training to use
                                1. Samples need to be separated for compounds to be identified - gas chromatography linked to mass spectrometer
                                  1. Comounds are split as travel at different speeds
                                  2. Mass spectrometer gives the relative molecular mass from its ion peak
                                  3. The Yield of a Chemical Reaction
                                    1. Yield - how much product you actually make
                                      1. Percentage yield - amount of product collected / maximum amount of product possible x 100
                                        1. 48g of Mg should give 80g of MgO so 2g of Mg should give 80/48 x 2 = 3.33 MgO Percentage Yield = 2.3/3.33 x 100 = 69%
                                          1. High yields conserve resources and reduce waste - should waste little energy - reduce pollution
                                          2. Reversible Reactions
                                            1. Can only occur if products of a reaction can react to make the original reactants
                                              1. Reversible reactions represented by double arrow
                                                1. Ammonium chloride can be heated, reactants formed cool to react and form ammonium chloride
                                                2. Analysing Substances
                                                  1. Food additives - to improve its qualities, can be natural or synthetic
                                                    1. Chemical analysis used to check safe additives have been used in food
                                                      1. Paper chromatography, mass spectrometry - methods
                                                      2. Paper chromatography - analyse artificial colours in food
                                                        1. Colours move different distances depending on their solubility
