For example, the equivalent weight of oxygen is 16.0/2 = 8.0 grams. For acid–base reactions, the equivalent weight of an acid or base is the mass which supplies or reacts with one mole of hydrogen cations (H +). For redox reactions, the equivalent weight of each reactant supplies or reacts with one mole of electrons (e −) in a redox ...
Potassium ferrioxalate contains the iron(III) complex [Fe(C 2 O 4) 3] 3−. In chemistry, iron(III) or ferric refers to the element iron in its +3 oxidation state. Ferric chloride is an alternative name for iron(III) chloride (FeCl 3). The adjective ferrous is used instead for iron(II) salts, containing the cation Fe 2+.
The bicarbonate ion (hydrogencarbonate ion) is an anion with the empirical formula HCO − 3 and a molecular mass of 61.01 daltons; it consists of one central carbon atom surrounded by three oxygen atoms in a trigonal planar arrangement, with a hydrogen atom attached to one of the oxygens.
Molecular weight (M.W.) (for molecular compounds) and formula weight (F.W.) (for non-molecular compounds), are older terms for what is now more correctly called the relative molar mass (M r). [8] This is a dimensionless quantity (i.e., a pure number, without units) equal to the molar mass divided by the molar mass constant .
A stoichiometric diagram of the combustion reaction of methane. Stoichiometry (/ ˌ s t ɔɪ k i ˈ ɒ m ɪ t r i / ⓘ) is the relationships between the masses of reactants and products before, during, and following chemical reactions.
Conversions between units in the metric system are defined by their prefixes (for example, 1 kilogram = 1000 grams, 1 milligram = 0.001 grams) and are thus not listed in this article. Exceptions are made if the unit is commonly known by another name (for example, 1 micron = 10 −6 metre).
The following chart shows the solubility of various ionic compounds in water at 1 atm pressure and room temperature (approx. 25 °C, 298.15 K). "Soluble" means the ionic compound doesn't precipitate, while "slightly soluble" and "insoluble" mean that a solid will precipitate; "slightly soluble" compounds like calcium sulfate may require heat to precipitate.
ion in ferric citrate (as in many iron(III) carboxylates) is reduced by exposure to light, [8] especially blue and ultraviolet, to Fe 2+ (ferrous) ion with concomitant oxidation of the carboxyl group adjacent to the hydroxyl, yielding carbon dioxide and acetonedicarboxylate: 2 Fe 3+ + R 2-C(OH)-CO − 2 → 2 Fe 2+ + R 2-C=O + H + + CO 2
