🗑
Atomic Number   The number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus (aka proton number)  
🗑
Relative Atomic mass (Ar)   The average mass of an atom of an element, taking into account its naturally occurring isotopes, relative to 1/12 the relative atomic mass of an atom of carbon-12  
🗑
Relative Molecular mass (Mr)   The mass of a molecule compared to 1/12 the relative atomic mass of an atom of Carbon-12  
🗑
The Ideal Gas equation   PV=nRT  
🗑
Empirical Formula   The formula that represents the simplest ratio of atoms present in a compound.  
🗑
Molecular Formula   The actual number of atoms present in a compound  
🗑
Atom Economy   (Mass of desired product/Total mass of reactants)x 100  
🗑
Percentage Yield   The number of moles/grams of a specified product / theoretical max. no. of moles/grams of the product)x 100  
🗑
Electronegativity   The power of an atom to attract electron density in a covalent bond towards itself  
🗑
van der Waals   A type of intermolecular force of attraction that is caused by instantaneous dipoles and acts between all molecules and atoms  
🗑
Dipole-Dipole Force   An intermolecular force that results from the attraction between molecules with permanent dipoles  
🗑
Hydrogen Bonding   A type of intermolecular force in which a hydrogen atom covalently bonded to an electronegative atom interacts with another electronegative atom  
🗑
Intermolecular Forces   Weak forces occurring between molecules  
🗑
Displayed Formula   This shows every atom and every bond in a molecule  
🗑
Structural Formula   This shows the unique arrangement of atoms in a molecule in a simplified form, without showing all of the bonds  
🗑
Chain Isomer   Isomers that have the same molecular formula but different types of chains, i.e.linear and branched  
🗑
Positional Isomer   Isomers that arise due to different positions of side chains, substituents, functional groups, double bonds, triple bonds etc...on the parent chain  
🗑
Structural Isomer   Having the same molecular formula but different structural arrangement  
🗑
Homologous Series   a family of organic compounds, with the same functional group, but different carbon chain length  
🗑
Fractional Distillation   The process of heating and separating fractions that boil over a range of different temperatures  
🗑
Enthalpy Change   An energy (heat) change measured under stated conditions of temperature and pressure  
🗑
Standard enthalpy of formation   The standard/average enthalpy change when one mole of a substance is formed from its constituent elements under standard conditions  
🗑
Standard enthalpy of Combustion   The standard/average enthalpy change when one mole of a substance is burned completely in oxygen under standard conditions.  
🗑
Standard enthalpy of a reaction   The standard/average heat energy given out of taken in as a reaction proceeds  
🗑
Hess's Law   The enthalpy change for a chemical reaction is the same regardless of the route taken from reactants to products  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
