Test Review for Chapter Seven
Test Monday April 11
And that's all she wrote , folks!
- Make sure you can convert grams to moles and the reverse.
- There is one question that asks you to use Avogadro's number.
- Make sure you know what a double and single displacement reaction is.
- Don't forget to balance equations.
- Be careful and read questions carefully for units when working with a stiochiometric question.
- Make sure you can handle the percentage yield question both ways, both finding percentage yield and if given percentage yoild calculate the mass of produce produced.
- The standard limiting reagent question and one that asks you to just determine the limiting reagent.
- Have a look at questions 9, 11, 17,
Test Review for Chapter NineTest Monday April 25, May 9
- Completing reactions using work equations
- Completing reactions using formula then balancing the equation see page 340
- Find the concentration of a solution given mass and volume; units in mol/L
- Find the required number of grams required to make a given concentration at a fixed volume
- Finding the final concentration of a solution when two solutions of given concentration and volume are mised together
- Finding the mass of a precipitate formed when two solutions are mixed. In this type of problem a balanced equation is needed for mole ratios. A double displacement reaction usually occurs.
- Finding the mass or percentage by mass of a soluble salt dissolved in water by precipitating either the cation or anion of this salt. The mass of sample taken and mass of precipitate are usually given. Problem is writen as an experimental investigation
- Variation on the above may be used, such as find volume instead of mass in a solution.
Test Review for Acids Bases Chapter 10Test May 19
- Test format: true and false, multiple choice, short written answers, and problems
- The two theories of acids and bases: Arrhenius and Bronsted-Lowry theories
- Make sure you know the following terms or situations
- conjugate acid base pair
- The hydronium ion
- An amphoteric substance
- indiactor with examples
- end point and equivalence point
- pH and pOH and what the number mean
- strong and weak acid or base, how to tell them apart
- How to calculate the pH of a solution given the hydrogen ion concentration and
how to determie the concentration of a solution given the pH- Make sure you know your indicator colours
- Be able to write balanced equations for neutralization reaction
- Be able to solve a titration question to determine an unknown concentration. With this unknown concentration be able to convert it into a mole or mass value
- Be able to determine the volume of a titrant (concentration given) required to neutralize a given concentration of acid or base
- Be able to determine the amount of a concentrated acid (or baes) need to make a solution of required concentration. Similar to last chapter.
Test Review for Gas Laws Chapter 11 & 12Test May 26
- Test format: true and false, multiple choice, short written answers, and problems
- Know your gas laws as statements
- Boyle's Law
- Charles' Law
- Gay-Lussac's Law
- Dalton's Law of Partial Pressure
- Law of Combining Volumes Gay-Lussac's second law
- Avogadro's hypothesis
- Ideal Gas Law
- Make sure you know equations that relate to all of the above and the combined Gas Law equation
- Be able to solve questions using Gas Law equations
- Using the Ideal Gas Law equation (an equation of state) PV = nRT to solve questions
Know what molar volume and molar mass are in relation to this equation- Kinetic Molecular Theory; know the postulates that where given to you as a note
especially the KMT of pressure- You did two assignments; make sure you know what these assignments taught you
- Know how to convert Celcius to Kelvin and back again and never solve Gas Law problems in Celcius
- Macro properties of a gas
- STP and ASTP
- Know your constants
- 8.314 L·kPa/K·mol the Gas Law constant
- 22.4 L/mol the volume of 1 mol at STP
- 101.3 kPa STP pressure
- Oo C or 273 K STP temperature
- Working with the balanced equation: Gas Law stiochiometry, use the matrix set-up you were taught
Are the conditions at STP? if so use 22.4 L/mol in the data row
Conditions not at STP? solve for the number of moles then use PV = nRT to find the require volume
