Q1. In a reaction, 5.3 g of sodium carbonate reacted with 6g of ethanoic acid. The products were 2.2g of carbon dioxide, 0.9g water and 8.2g of sodium ethanoate. Show that these observations are in agreement with the law of conservation of mass.
Answer:
sodium carbonate + ethanoic acid → sodium ethanoate + carbon dioxide + water
Mass of Sodium carbonate = 5.3g
Mass of ethanoic Acid = 6g
Mass of Sodium ethanoic acid = 8.2g
Mass of water = 0.9g
We knock that according to the law of conservation of mass-
Mass of reactants = Mass of products
5.3g + 6g = 8.2g + 2.2g + 0.9g
11.3g = 11.3g
Hence, the given observations are satisfied the law of conservation of mass.
Q2. 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: Given ratio of Hydrogen and Oxyden - 1:8
It means- 1g of Hydrogen gas required 8g Oxygen to reaction with Hydrogen
Therefore, 3g of Hydrogen gas required = 3 x 8 = 24g
So, 24g Oxygen is required to react completely with Hydrogen gas.
Q3. Which postulate of Dalton’s atomic theory is the result of the law of conservation of mass?
Answer: The second postulate of Dalton's atomic theory is the result of the law of conservation of mass.
That is as follow-
"Atoms are indivisible particles, which can neither be created nor be destroyed in a chemical reaction".
Q4. Which postulate of Dalton’s atomic theory can explain the law of definite proportions?
Answer:
The sixth postulate of Dalton's atomic theory explains the law of definite proportions.
That is as follow-
"The ralative number and kind of atoms in a given compound remains constatnt".

Q1. Define the atomic mass unit.
Answer:
An atomic mass unit or amu is one twelfth of the mass of an unbound atom of carbon -12 isotope. This is approximetely 1.67377 x 10 -27 kilogram (kg).
The relative atomic mass of the atom of an element is defined as the average mass of the atom, as compared to 1/12th the mass of one carbon-12 atom.
Atomic mass unit is abbreviated as 'amu' but on IUPAC latest recommendation, it is writen as 'u'.
Q2. Why is it not possible to see an atom with naked eyes?
Answer: Atoms are very small tiny particles. It is so small that can not be seen with a nacked eyes. Also, an another reason - the atom of an element does not exist independently.

Q1. 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: Boron and oxygen compound —> Boron + Oxygen

Q2. 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 combination will govern your answer?
Answer: The reaction of burning of carbon in oxygen may be written as:
It shows that 12 g of carbon bums in 32 g oxygen to form 44 g of carbon dioxide. Therefore 3 g of carbon reacts with 8 g of oxygen to form 11 g of carbon dioxide. It is given that 3.0 g of carbon is burnt with 8 g of oxygen to produce 11.0 g of CO2. Consequently 11.0 g of carbon dioxide will be formed when 3.0 g of C is burnt in 50 g of oxygen consuming 8 g of oxygen, leaving behind 50 – 8 = 42 g of O2. The answer governs the law of constant proportion.

(c) 10 moles of sodium sulphite (Na2S03)?
Answer: (a) Mass of 1 mole of nitrogen atoms = 14 g
(b) 4 moles of aluminium atoms
Mass of 1 mole of aluminium atoms = 27 g
∴ Mass of 4 moles of aluminium atoms = 27 x 4 = 108 g
(c) 10 moles of sodium sulphite (Na2SO3)
Mass of 1 mole of Na2SO3 = 2 x 23 + 32 + 3 x 16 = 46 + 32 + 48 = 126 g

Q8. Convert into mole.
(a) 12 g of oxygen gas
(b) 20 g of water
(c) 22 g of Carbon dioxide.
Answer: (a) Given mass of oxygen gas = 12 g
Molar mass of oxygen gas (O2) = 32 g
Mole of oxygen gas 12/32 = 0.375 mole
(b) Given mass of water = 20 g
Molar mass of water (H2O) = (2 x 1) + 16 = 18 g
Mole of water = 20/18 = 1.12 mole
(c) Given mass of Carbon dioxide = 22 g
Molar mass of carbon dioxide (CO2) = (1 x 12) + (2 x 16)
= 12 + 32 = 44 g
∴ Mole of carbon dioxide = 22/44 = 0.5 mole
Q9. What is the mass of:
(a) 0.2 mole of oxygen atoms?

Molar mass of water molecules = 2 x 1 + 16= 18 g .
Mass of H2O = 18 x 0.5 = 9 g
