1. In a reaction, 5.3 g of sodium carbonate reacted with 6 g of ethanoic acid. The products were 2.2 g of carbon dioxide, 0.9 g water and 8.2 g of sodium ethanoate. Show that these observations are in agreement with the law of conservation of mass.

Sodium carbonate + ethanoic acid → sodium ethanoate + carbon dioxide + water

Answer

In the given reaction, sodium carbonate reacts with ethanoic acid to produce sodium ethanoate, carbon dioxide, and water.
Sodium Carbonate + Ethanoic acid → sodium ethanoate + carbon dioxide + water

Mass of sodium carbonate = 5.3 g (Given)
Mass of ethanoic acid = 6 g (Given)
Mass of sodium ethanoate = 8.2 g (Given)
Mass of carbon dioxide = 2.2 g (Given)
Mass of water = 0.9 g (Given)

Now, total mass before the reaction = (5.3 + 6) g
= 11.3 g

And, total mass after the reaction = (8.2 + 2.2 + 0.9) g
= 11.3 g

∴ Total mass before the reaction = Total mass after the reaction

Hence, the given observations are in agreement with the law of conservation of mass.

2. Hydrogen and oxygen combine in the ratio of 1:8 by mass to form water. What mass of oxygen gas would be required to react completely with 3 g of hydrogen gas?

Answer

It is given that the ratio of hydrogen and oxygen by mass to form water is 1:8.

Then, the mass of oxygen gas required to react completely with 1 g of hydrogen gas is 8 g.

Therefore, the mass of oxygen gas required to react completely with 3 g of hydrogen gas is 8 x 3 g = 24 g.

1. Calculate the molecular masses of H2, O2, Cl2, CO2, CH4, C2H6, C2H4, NH3, CH3OH.

Answer

► Molecular mass of H2= 2 x Atomic mass of H
= 2 x 1
= 2 u

► Molecular mass of O2= 2 x Atomic mass of O
= 2 x 16
= 32 u

► Molecular mass of Cl2= 2 x Atomic mass of Cl
= 2 x 35.5
= 71 u

► Molecular mass of CO2= Atomic mass of C + 2 x Atomic mass of O
= 12 + 2 x 16
= 44 u

► Molecular mass of CH4= Atomic mass of C + 4 x Atomic mass of H
= 12 + 4 x 1
= 16 u

► Molecular mass of C2H6= 2 x Atomic mass of C + 6 x Atomic mass of H
= 2 x 12 + 6 x 1
= 30 u

► Molecular mass of C2H4= 2 x Atomic mass of C + 4 x Atomic mass of H
= 2 x 12 + 4 x 1
= 28 u

► Molecular mass of NH3= Atomic mass of N + 3 x Atomic mass of H
= 14 + 3 x 1
= 17 u

► Molecular mass of CH3OH= Atomic mass of N + 3 x Atomic mass of H
= 12+ 4 x 1+16
= 32 u

2. Calculate the formula unit masses of ZnO, Na2O, K2CO3, given atomic masses of Zn = 65 u, Na = 23 u, K = 39 u, C = 12 u, and O = 16 u.

Answer

► Formula unit mass of ZnO = Atomic mass of Zn + Atomic mass of O
= 65 + 16
= 81 u

► Formula unit mass of Na2O = 2 x Atomic mass of Na + Atomic mass of O
= 2 x 23 + 16
= 62 u

► Formula unit mass of K2CO3= 2 x Atomic mass of K + Atomic mass of C + 3 x Atomic mass of O
= 2 x 39 + 12 + 3 x 16
= 138 u

1. If one mole of carbon atoms weighs 12 gram, what is the mass (in gram) of 1 atom of carbon?

Answer

One mole of carbon atoms weighs 12 g (Given)
i.e., mass of 1 mole of carbon atoms = 12 g
Then, mass of 6.022 x 1023 number of carbon atoms = 12 g
Therefore, mass of 1 atom of carbon = 12 ÷ (6.022 × 1023)
= 1.9926 x 10-23 g

2. Which has more number of atoms, 100 grams of sodium or 100 grams of iron (given, atomic mass of Na = 23 u, Fe = 56 u)?

Answer

Atomic mass of Na = 23 u (Given)
Then, gram atomic mass of Na = 23 g
Now, 23 g of Na contains = 6.022 x 1023 g number of atoms
Thus, 100 g of Na contains = 6.022 x 1023 / 23 x 100 number of atoms
= 2.6182 x 1024 number of atoms

Again, atomic mass of Fe = 56 u (Given)
Then, gram atomic mass of Fe = 56 g

Now, 56 g of Fe contains = 6.022 x 1023 g number of atoms
Thus, 100 g of Fe contains = 6.022 x 1023 / 56 x 100 number of atoms
= 1.0753 x 1024 number of atoms

Therefore, 100 grams of sodium contain more number of atoms than 100 grams of iron.

1. A 0.24 g sample of compound of oxygen and boron was found by analysis to contain 0.096 g of boron and 0.144 g of oxygen. Calculate the percentage composition of the compound by weight.

Answer

Total mass of Compund = 0.24 g (Given)
Mass of boron = 0.096 g (Given)
Mass of oxygen = 0.144 g (Given)


Thus, percentage of boron by weight in the compound = 0.096 / 0.24 x 100%
= 40%

And, percentage of oxygen by weight in the compound = 0.144 / 0.24 x 100%= 60%

2. When 3.0 g of carbon is burnt in 8.00 g oxygen, 11.00 g of carbon dioxide is produced. What mass of carbon dioxide will be formed when 3.00 g of carbon is burnt in 50.00 g of oxygen? Which law of chemical combinations will govern your answer?

Answer

3.0 g of carbon combines with 8.0 g of oxygen to give 11.0 of carbon dioxide.

If 3 g of carbon is burnt in 50 g of oxygen, then 3 g of carbon will react with 8 g of oxygen. The remaining 42 g of oxygen will be left un-reactive.
In this case also, only 11 g of carbon dioxide will be formed.
The above answer is governed by the law of constant proportions.

Answer

(a) 32 g of oxygen gas = 1 mole
Then, 12 g of oxygen gas = 12 / 32 mole = 0.375 mole

(b) 18 g of water = 1 mole
Then, 20 g of water = 20 / 18 mole = 1.111 mole

(c) 44 g of carbon dioxide = 1 mole
Then, 22 g of carbon dioxide = 22 / 44 mole = 0.5 mole

9. What is the mass of:

(a) 0.2 mole of oxygen atoms?
(b) 0.5 mole of water molecules?

Answer

(a) Mass of one mole of oxygen atoms = 16 g
Then, mass of 0.2 mole of oxygen atoms = 0.2 x 16g = 3.2 g

(b) Mass of one mole of water molecule = 18 g

Then, mass of 0.5 mole of water molecules = 0.5 x 18 g = 9 g

10. Calculate the number of molecules of sulphur (S8) present in 16 g of solid sulphur.

Answer

1 mole of solid sulphur (S8) = 8 x 32 g = 256 g
i.e., 256 g of solid sulphur contains = 6.022 x 1023 molecules
Then, 16 g of solid sulphur contains = 6.022 x 1023 / 256  = 16 molecules
= 3.76375 x 1022 molecules

11. Calculate the number of aluminium ions present in 0.051 g of aluminium oxide.
(Hint: The mass of an ion is the same as that of an atom of the same element. Atomic mass of Al = 27 u)

Answer

mole of aluminium oxide (Al2O3) = 2 x 27 + 3 x 16
= 102 g
i.e., 102 g of Al2O3= 6.022 x 1023molecules of Al2O
3 Then, 0.051 g of Al2O3contains = 6.022 x 1023 / 102 x 0.051 molecules
= 3.011 x 1020 molecules of Al2O
3
The number of aluminium ions (Al3+) present in one molecule of aluminium oxide is 2.

Therefore, the number of aluminium ions (Al3+) present in 3.011 x 1020molecules (0.051 g ) of aluminium oxide (Al2O3) = 2 x 3.011 x 10
20 = 6.022 x 1020
