CHEAT SHEET

Solving chemistry problems is a great way to master the various laws and calculations you encounter in a typical chemistry class. This Cheat Sheet provides some basic formulas, techniques, and tips you can refer to regularly to make solving chemistry problems a breeze (well, maybe not a breeze, but definitely easier).

A chemical equation shows what happens in a chemical reaction. As in any equation, the elements on the left side of the equation (the reactants) must equal the elements on the right (the products). Here are just a few things to remember when balancing chemical equations: Same elements in equal numbers: For an equation to be balanced, it must have the same number of each element on each side of the equation.
Acid-base reactions and their associated calculations play a primary role in many chemical, biological, and environmental systems. Whether you’re determining hydrogen ion concentration, [H+]; hydroxide ion concentration, [OH˗]; pH; or pOH, an equation and a calculator are important tools to have in your toolbox.

When completing a chemistry calculation, always write the number with the unit. Number, unit — it’s like having a first and last name. Consistently writing down the units allows you to see what cancels and helps you spot an error when units don’t cancel. For example, look at the following conversion from miles to kilometers.
Many people first encounter the following limits in a Calculus textbook when trying to prove the derivative formulas for the sine function and the cosine function. These results aren’t immediately obvious and actually take a bit of work to justify. Any calculus text should provide more explanation if you’re interested in seeing it!
The hyperbolic functions are certain combinations of the exponential functions ex and e–x. These functions occur often enough in differential equations and engineering that they’re typically introduced in a Calculus course. Some of the real-life applications of these functions relate to the study of electric transmission and suspension cables.
An electron configuration is a description of the relative locations of electrons in an atom or ion. Electron configurations are based primarily on three principles: the Aufbau principle, the Pauli exclusion principle, and the Heisenberg uncertainty principle. The most important thing to remember is that electrons fill orbitals from lowest energy to highest energy.
