Learning objectives:
(a) state the symbols of the elements and formulae of the compounds mentioned in the
syllabus.
(b) deduce the formulae of simple compounds from the relative numbers of atoms
present and vice versa
(c) deduce the formulae of ionic compounds from the charges on the ions present and
vice versa
(e) construct chemical equations, with state symbols, including ionic equations
(g) define relative molecular mass, Mr, and calculate relative molecular mass (and
relative formula mass) as the sum of relative atomic masses
(j) calculate stoichiometric reacting masses and volumes of gases (one mole of gas
occupies 24 dm3 at room temperature and pressure); calculations involving the idea of
limiting reactants may be set
(Knowledge of the gas laws and the calculations of gaseous volumes at different
temperatures and pressures are not required.)
(k) apply the concept of solution concentration (in mol/dm3 or g/dm3) to process the
results of volumetric experiments and to solve simple problems (Appropriate guidance
will be provided where unfamiliar reactions are involved.)
6 The scent of bananas is due to the chemical compound called isopentyl acetate.
The formula of this compound is C7H14O2.
(c) A gas jar contains 32.5 g of isopentyl acetate. How many molecules of isopentyl
acetate are there in the jar? [1]
