Avagrado’s number is the number of particles / atoms / molecules in one mole of any
substance. 6.02x10​23

2. How many atoms are there in one mole of any element?

6.02x10​23

3. If I had one mole of hydrogen molecules (H​2​), how many molecules would I have?

6.02x10​23

4. If I had one mole of hydrogen molecules (H​2​), how many atoms would I have?

1.204x10​24​ There are 6.01x10​23​ molecules and each molecule contains 2 atoms, so
(6.02x10​23​ x 2 atoms).

5. Define Ar and Mr

Ar - Relative atomic mass of an element (found on the periodic table)

Mr - Relative molecular mass (or formula mass), its the sum of the Ar’s of all the
atoms present in the substance

6. Write down the two formulas used to calculate moles.

Moles = mass/ Mr Moles = concentration x Volume/1000

7. How many moles are there in 10g of Fe?

moles = mass/Mr (or Ar) = 10/56 = 0.18

8. How many moles are there in 25g of CuSO​4​?

Mr of CuSO​4​ = 63.5 + 32 + (16x4) = 159.5


moles = mass/Mr = 25/159.5 = 0.16
9. What is the mass of 0.5 moles of Mg?

Revision of KS4
Calculations in Chemistry
for KS5
mass = moles x Mr (or Ar) = 0.5 x 24 = 12

10. What is the mass of 0.1 moles of NaCl?

Mr of NaCl = 23 + 35.5 = 58.5


mass = moles x Mr = 0.1 x 58.5 = 5.9
11. How many moles are there in 25cm​3​ of 0.1 mol/dm​3​ of NaOH

moles = ​vol x conc​ = (25 x 0.1) / 1000 = 2.5x10​-3


1000

12. What is the concentration of a 10cm​3 solution of HCl that contains 0.25moles

13. What is the maximum mass of calcium oxide that could be formed when 15g of
calcium carbonate is heated?

CaCO​3​ → CaO + CO​2

Mr of CaCO​3​ = 40+12+(16x3)= 100 Mr of CaO = 40+16 = 56


moles of CaCO​3​ = mass/Mr = 15/100 = 0.15 = moles of CaO
mass of CaO = moles x Mr = 0.15x56 = 8.4g (don’t forget the units)
14. What is the minimum mass of Magnesium that would need to be heated with an
excess of oxygen, to make 5g of Magnesium oxide?

2Mg + O​2​ → 2MgO

Ar of Mg = 24 Mr of MgO = 24+16= 40
moles of MgO = mass/Mr = 5/40 = 0.125 = moles of Mg (2:2 ratio)
mass of Mg = moles x Ar = 0.125 x 24 = 3g (don’t forget the units)
15. What volume of 0.1 mol/dm​3​ HCl would be needed to completely neutralise 15cm​3​ of
0.2 mol/dm​3​ KOH

HCl + KOH → KCl + H​2​O

moles of KOH= ​vol x conc​ = (15 x 0.2) / 1000 = 3x10​-3​ = moles of HCl
1000
vol of HCl= ​molesx1000​ = ​(3x10​-3​ x 1000) ​= 30cm​3
conc 0.1

16. Calculate the atom economy for Sodium chloride, NaCl

HCl + NaOH → NaCl + H​2​O

%Atom Economy =​ mass of desired product​ x100 = ​23+35.5 x 100 = 76.5%

oxygen?

Fe 14/56 = 0.25 0.25/0.25 = 1

Extension Questions

1. What is the maximum mass of Copper oxide that could be formed if 5g of Copper is
heated in an excess of oxygen?

2​Cu + O​2​ → ​2​CuO

Balance the equation first!


Ar of Cu = 63.5 Mr of CuO = 63.5+16 = 79.5
moles of Cu = mass/Ar = 5/63.5 = 7.9x10​-2​ = moles of CuO (2:2 ratio)
mass of CuO = moles x Mr = 7.9x10​-2​ x 79.5 = 6.3g
2. What mass of NaOH would be needed to make 25cm​3​ of a 0.2mol/dm​3​ solution?

moles of NaOH= ​vol x conc​ = (25 x 0.2) / 1000 = 5x10​-3

Revision of KS4
Calculations in Chemistry
for KS5
Mr of NaOH = (23+16+1) = 40
mass of NaOH = moles x Mr = 5x10​-3​x40 = 0.2g

3. A solution of sulfuric acid (H​2​SO​4​) has an unknown concentration. 25cm​3​ of the


solution of H​2​SO​4​ requires 23cm​3​ of 0.15mol/dm​3​ NaOH solution. Calculate the
concentration of the H​2​SO​4​.

H​2​SO​4​ + ​2​NaOH → Na​2​SO​4​ + H​2​O

First balance the equation!


moles of H​2​SO​4​= ​vol x conc​ = (23 x 0.15) / 1000 = 3.45x10​-3
1000

1 mole of H​2​SO​4​ reacts with 2 moles of NaOH
so moles of NaOH = moles of H​2​SO​4​ x 2 = 3.45x10​-3​x2 = 6.9x10​-3
conc of NaOH = ​moles x vol​ = 6 ​ .9x10​-3​ x 25 ​= 1.7x10​-4​mol/dm​3
1000 1000

4. When Magnesium is burnt in oxygen, magnesium oxide (MgO) is formed . Explain


(without any calculations) why the atom economy is 100%. Hint you will need to write
a balanced chemical equation.

2Mg + O​2​ → 2MgO

Total mass of the reactants and the products must be equal as matter cannot be
created or destroyed. As MgO is the only product it will have the same mass as the
total mass of the reactants.

5. What is the empirical formula of a compound containing 52.2% carbon, 13.0%


hydrogen and oxygen only.

% Oxygen = 100 - (52.2 + 13.0) = 34.8


C 52.2/12 = 4.35 4.35/2.175 = 2
H 13/1 = 13 13/2.175 = 6
O 34.8/ 16 = 2.175 2.175/2.175 = 1
Empirical formula = C​2​H​6​O
