What is the concentration formula?
The concentration formula is concentration = mass of solute ÷ volume of solution, measured in g/dm³. The Calculating Mass of Solute in Solutions notes cover this in full.
What are NPK fertilisers used for?
NPK fertilisers are formulations of salts containing nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium compounds, used to improve plant growth and agricultural productivity. The NPK fertilisers and their importance notes cover this in full.
What are the properties of transition metals?
Transition metals have three key features: they form ions with different charges, many of their compounds are coloured, and many transition metals and their compounds are useful catalysts. The Introduction to Transition Metal Properties notes cover this in full.
How do you calculate percentage yield?
Percentage yield = (actual mass ÷ theoretical mass) × 100. The Calculating Percentage Yield and Theoretical Mass notes cover this in full.
What is galvanising?
Galvanising is coating iron or steel with a thin layer of zinc to prevent rusting. The Sacrificial Protection and Galvanising notes cover this in full.
What is the Mr of ethanol?
The Mr of ethanol, C₂H₅OH, is 46. The Calculating and Applying Atom Economy notes cover this in full.
What units is concentration measured in?
The concentration of a solution is measured as mass per unit volume, in g/dm³ or g/cm³. The Calculating Mass of Solute in Solutions notes cover this in full.
What is corrosion?
Corrosion is the destruction of materials by chemical reactions with substances in the environment, measured by mass loss or structural damage over time. The Understanding Corrosion and Rusting Experiments notes cover this in full.
