Problem solving tutor Next This presentation is designed to develop your problem solving skills in quantitative chemistry. Working through the whole tutor program you will develop and use three techniques for problem solving. These have been called: 1. Knowing what you know (do this one first) 2. Tabulating the information (do this one second) 3. Storyboarding (do this one last) You are about to start: Knowing what you know

Some important points: You will need to use a calculator (or the calculator function on your computer/device). Do not use the keyboard to advance or go back through slides. Use the mouse/screen tap and the icons: Next Back Next

Knowing what you know and don’t know Question 2. An impure sample of zinc powder with a mass of 5.84 g was reacted with hydrochloric acid until the reaction was complete. The hydrogen gas produced had a volume of 1.53 dm 3. Calculate the percentage purity of the zinc. (assume 1 mol of gas occupies 24 dm 3 under the conditions used for the reaction) Next In the next slide you will be given a typical quantitative chemistry problem to solve. A very powerful technique is to sort the information into “what I know now”, “what I can immediately work out” and “what I have been asked for” – this will point the way through the calculation. You will do this sorting on screen here, but should do it in your head or on paper when you use this skill afterwards.
