QuestionAnswer
limiting reactant completely consumed in the reaction and limits the amount of product that can be made
excess reactant reactant that is not completely consumed
Is the limiting reactant present in the fewest number of moles, or the least amount of mass? moles
theoretical yield amount of product that can be made from the limiting reactant
percent yield the efficiency of a reaction
actual yield the amount that is actually produced
percent yield equation actual/theoretical x 100
molecular formula give the exact number of each type of element in a compound
empirical formula give the simplest ratio of elements in a compound
percent composition of mass list of the percent by mass of each element in a compound
limiting reactant completely consumed in the reaction and limits the amount of product that can be made
excess reactant reactant that is not completely consumed
Is the limiting reactant present in the fewest number of moles, or the least amount of mass? moles
theoretical yield amount of product that can be made from the limiting reactant
percent yield the efficiency of a reaction
actual yield the amount that is actually produced
percent yield equation actual/theoretical x 100
molecular formula give the exact number of each type of element in a compound
empirical formula give the simplest ratio of elements in a compound
percent composition of mass list of the percent by mass of each element in a compound
What inherent relationships are contained in chemical formulas? number of atoms and molecules and moles of atoms and molecules
What are the steps in determining the empirical formula from percent composition? 1. assume 100 gram sample 2. convert grams to mole of each element 3. use # of moles as subscripts in empirical formula, dividing each subscript by the smallest subscript 4. convert any fractions to whole numbers
molar mass the sum of the masses of all the atoms in the empirical formula
combustion analysis a way to figure out what elements are in a substance by burning it and measuring what comes out
What type of solvent do polar molecules dissolve in? polar solvents
hydration polarity allowing water to attract ions and pull them from their crystal structure
dissociation separating the ions from ionic compounds
What are chemical reactions that occur between substances dissolved in water? aqueous solutions
solute part of a solution that is being dissolved
solvent part of a solution that dissolves the solute
When molecular compounds dissolve in water, what do they dissociate into? individual compounds
When ionic compounds dissolve in water, what do they dissociate into? ions
dilute solutions amount of solute is small relative to the amount of solvent
concentrated solutions large amount of solute relative to the amount of solvent
unsaturated solutions contains less solute than the maximum amount that can dissolve at a given temperature
saturated solutions contains the maximum amount of solute that can dissolve in a solvent at a given temperature
supersaturated solutions solution that contains more dissolved solute than it should be able to hold at that temperature
precipitate a solid that forms and separates out of a solution during a chemical reaction
solubility maximum amount of a solute that can dissolve in a given amount of solvent at a specific temperature and pressure
dilution reducing the concentration of a solute in a solution by adding more solvent
nonelectrolytes substance that dissolves in water but does not form ions
electrolytes substances that dissolve in water to produce ions, allowing the solution to conduct electricity
strong electrolytes substance that completely dissolves into ions when dissolved in water
weak electrolytes substance that dissolved in water but only partially ionizes
precipitation reaction chemical reaction in which two aqueous ionic solutions are mixed and an insoluble solid forms
formula unit equation standard balanced chemical equation written with complete, neutral chemical formulas
complete ionic equation shows all strong electrolytes as the ions they form in a solution
net ionic equation shows only the ions and molecules that actually participate in the chemical reaction
synthesis type of chemical reaction in which two or more simple substances combine to form a single, more complex product
decomposition chemical reaction in which one compound breaks down into two or more simpler substances
single replacement reaction in which one element replaces another element in a compound
double replacement reaction in which two ionic compounds in aqueous solution exchange ions, forming two new compounds
acids substances increase the concentration of hydrogen ions (H⁺ or H₃O⁺) in aqueous solution
bases substances that produce hydroxide ions (OH⁻) in water or accept protons (H⁺)
strong acids HCL, HBr, Hl, HNO3, HClO3, HClO4, H2SO4
strong bases LiOH, NaOH, KOH, RbOH, CsOH, Ca(OH)2, Sr(OH)2, Ba(OH)2
acid anhydrides non‑metal oxide that reacts with water to form an acid
basic anhydrides metal oxide that reacts with water to form a base
neutralization reaction acid–base reaction in which an acid donates H⁺ and a base donates OH⁻, and the two combine to form water
tritation laboratory technique used to determine the concentration of an unknown solution by reacting it with a solution of known concentration
oxidation-reduction reactions reactions in which electrons are transferred from one species to another
oxidation loss of electrons by an atoms, ion, or molecule
reduction gain of electrons by an atom, ion, or molecule

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.
