Amount of Substance

Moles

Avogadro Constant: One mole = 6.02 x1023 particles, easier way to count number of particles. As mole linked to carbon- 12. 1 mole in grams = relative atomic mass. • Number of atoms = 6.02 x1023 x molar mass. 0.12 moles of S8 molecules means need to multiply by 8 as...

Liquid- moles

1 cm3 = 1 ml. 1dm3 = 1000 cm3 . • Concentration: Unit mol dm-3 . It is the amount of solute, in moles, dissolved in each 1 dm3 of solution. • Calculating Moles with Volumes: Moles (mol) = Concentration (mol dm-3 ) x Volume (dm3 ). If in cm3 / 1000 = dm3 . Standard...
