Conversions
The method for converting mL to L.
What is "divide by 1000"?
These compounds are made of only two elements: one metal and one nonmetal.
What are binary ionic compounds?
These malleable, ductile, electrically conductive elements are located on the left hand side of the stairstep line.
What are metals?
This gas law states the directly proportional relationship between volume and temperature.
What is Charles's Law?
This type of reaction has only one product.
What is synthesis?
The method for converting grams to moles.
What is "divide by the molar mass"?
These ions contain more than one element and have specific names that can be found on your Common Ions Sheet.
What are polyatomic ions?
These elements are located along the stairstep line.
What are metalloids?
This gas law examines the relationship between (unchanging) pressure, temperature, volume, and amount of a gas. It requires the use of a constant designated "R".
What is the Ideal Gas Law?
This type of reaction usually has to be catalyzed by the addition of heat or electricity.
What is decomposition?
The method for converting Celsius temperature to Kelvin.
What is "add 273.15"?
These compounds consist only of nonmetals and are named using prefixes which indicate the quantity of each element in the compound.
What are binary covalent compounds?
These kinds of elements bond to the same kind through the sharing of electrons. They tend to be insulators.
What are nonmetals?
This value of the Ideal Gas constant corresponds to units of moles, Liters, atm, and Kelvin.
What is 0.0821?
This type of reaction requires oxygen and usually produces carbon dioxide and water.
What is combustion?
The method for converting kPa to atm.
What is "divide by 101.3"?
These compounds require you to ascertain the charges, then balance them using subscripts.
What are ionic compounds?
These elements tend to have the highest electronegativities, with a few notable exceptions.
What are nonmetals?
In Boyle's Law, these two properties share an inverse relationship.
What are volume and pressure?
This type of reaction requires the use of the Activity Series to determine whether it will take place.
What is single replacement?
The method for converting psi to torr.
What is "divide by 14.7 and multiply by 760"?
Of the two types of acids, these do not contain oxygen and require you to add the prefix "hydro-" when naming them.
What are binary acids?
These elements are considered semiconductors: they selectively conduct electricity.
What are metalloids?
Give two sets of properties that are directly proportional to each other.
What are pressure and temperature; volume and amount in moles?
This type of reaction must produce a non-aqueous product in order to proceed.
What is a double replacement?
