Q1. 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
Ans:
Mass of reactants = 5.3 g + 6 g = 11.3 g
Mass of products = 2.2 g + 0.9 g + 8.2 g = 11.3 g
Mass of reactants = Mass of products
Therefore, the law of conservation of mass is proven.
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 3g of hydrogen gas?
Ans: Since hydrogen and oxygen combine in the ratio of 1:8 by mass, 3g of hydrogen gas will react completely with 24 g of oxygen gas.
Q3. Which postulate of Dalton's atomic theory is the result of the law of conservation of mass?
Ans: Dalton’s postulate that “atoms can neither be created nor destroyed,” is a result of the law of conservation of mass.
Q4. Which postulate of Dalton's atomic theory can explain the law of definite proportions?

Q1. Calculate the molecular masses of H2, O2, Cl2, CO2, CH4, C2H6, C2H4, NH3, CH3OH.
Ans:
Molecular mass of H2 = 2 × Atomic mass of H
= 2 × 1
= 2 u
Molecular mass of O2 = 2 × Atomic mass of O
= 2 × 16
= 32 u
Molecular mass of Cl2 = 2 × Atomic mass of Cl
= 2 × 35.5
= 71 u
Molecular mass of CO2 = Atomic mass of C2 × Atomic mass of O
= 12+ (2+16) = (12 + 32)u
= 44 u
Molecular mass of CH4= Atomic mass of C4 × Atomic mass of H
= 12+ (4 x 1)u = (12 + 4)u
= 16 u
Molecular mass of C2H6 = 2× Atomic mass of C6× Atomic mass of H
= (2 x 12 + 6 x 1)u = (24 + 6)u
= 30 u
Molecular mass of C2H4 = 2 x Atomic mass of C4 × Atomic mass of H
= (2 x 12 + 4 x 1)u = (24 + 4)u
= 28 u
Molecular mass of NH3 = Atomic mass of N3 × Atomic mass of H
= (14 + 3 x 1)u = (14 + 3)u
= 17 u
Molecular mass of CH3OH = Atomic mass of C3 × Atomic mass of H Atomic mass of O Atomic mass of H
= (12 + 3 x 1 + 16 + 1)u = (12 + 3 + 17)u
= 32 u
Q2. 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.
Ans:
(i) Formula unit mass of ZnO
= 65 + 16 = 81 u
(ii) Formula unit mass of Na2O
= 2 x 23 + 16 = 46 + 16 = 62 u
(iii) Formula unit mass of K2CO3
= 2 x 39 + 12 + 3 x 16
= 78 + 12 + 48 = 138 u
Q1. A 0.24 g sample of a 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.
Ans: Percentage of boron = (mass of boron / mass of the compound) x 100
= (0.096g / 0.24g) x 100
= 40%
Percentage of oxygen = 100 – percentage of boron
= 100 – 40
= 60%
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?
Ans: When 3.0 g of carbon is burnt in 8.00 g of oxygen, 11.00 g of carbon dioxide is produced.
Given that
3.0 g of carbon combines with 8.0 g of oxygen to give 11.0 of carbon dioxide.
Find out
We need to find out the mass of carbon dioxide that will be formed when 3.00 g of carbon is burnt in 50.00 g of oxygen.
Solution
First, let us write the reaction taking place here.
C + O2 → CO2
As per the given condition, when 3.0 g of carbon is burnt in 8.00 g of oxygen, 11.00 g of carbon dioxide is produced.
3g + 8g →11 g ( from the above reaction)
The total mass of reactants = mass of carbon + mass of oxygen
= 3g+8g
= 11g
The total mass of reactants = Total mass of products
Therefore, the law of conservation of mass is proved.
Then, it also depicts that carbon dioxide contains carbon and oxygen in a fixed ratio by mass, which is 3:8.
Thus, it further proves the law of constant proportions.
3 g of carbon must also combine with 8 g of oxygen only.
This means that (50−8) = 42g of oxygen will remain unreacted.
The remaining 42 g of oxygen will be left un-reactive. In this case, too, only 11 g of carbon dioxide will be formed.
The above answer is governed by the law of constant proportions.

(b) Molar mass of Sulphur molecule S8 = 8 x Mass of S = 8 x 32 = 256g
(c) Molar mass of Phosphorus molecule, P4 = 4 x Mass of P = 4 x 31 = 124g
(d) Molar mass of Hydrochloric acid, HCl = Mass of H+ Mass of Cl = 1+35.5 = 36.5g
