= 26 g.
(b) Molar mass of Sulphur molecule
= 8 × 32
= 256 g.

= 4 × 31
(Atomic mass of Phosphorus)
= 124 g.

Which has more number of atoms:100 grams of Magnesium or 100 grams of Aluminium(Given: At mass of Mg=24 u, AL = 27 u)

Answer»

100 grams of magnesium:

1 mole of Mg atom = 6.022 × 1023 atoms

This means 24g of Mg has 6.022 × 1023 atoms

Then 100 g contains:

Number of Mg atoms = \(\frac{Given\,mass}{Molar\,mass}\)x 6.022 x 1023

Number of Mg atoms = \(\frac{100g}{24u}\)6.022 x 1023

Number of Mg atoms = 2.5 × 1024 atoms

100 grams of aluminium:

1 mole of Al atom = 6.022 × 1023 atoms

This means 27g of Al has 6.022 × 1023 atoms

Then 100 g contains:

Number of AI atoms = \(\frac{Given\,mass}{Molar\,mass}\)x 6.022 x 1023

Number of AI atoms = \(\frac{100g}{27u}\)6.022 x 1023

Number of AI atoms = 2.2 x 1024

Thus, 100g of magnesium has more atoms.

Formula of calcium hydroxide is Ca(OH)2 and zinc phosphate is Zn3(PO4)2. Then write the formula to calcium phosphate.  (OR) Formula of calcium hydroxide is Ca(OH)2 and zinc phosphate is Zn3(PO4)2. Then write the valencies of calcium and phosphate and then write the formula of calcium phosphate.

Answer»
  • Formula of calcium hydroxide is Ca(OH)2
  • From criss-cross method we know that the valency of calcium is 2 i.e., Ca+2 and hydroxide is 1 i.e., OH- .
  •  Formula of zinc phosphate is Zn3(PO4)2
  • Valency of Zn is 2 i.e., Zn+2 and valency of phosphate is 3 i.e., P\(O_4^{-3}\) . 
  • Now the formula of calcium phosphate according to criss-cross method is Ca3(PO4).

Answer»

(a).Molecular mass of hydrogen sulphide (H2S) 

= 2xH + 1xS = (2+32) u = 34u 

(b). Molecular mass of Carbon disulphide (CS2) = 1xC + 2xS = (12+2 x 32) u = 76 u

Predict the mass possessed by certain number of oxygen atoms which is equal to the number of molecules present 1g of hydrogen gas?

Answer»

Mass of oxygen atoms = number of molecules present 1g of hydrogen gas 

Number of molecules in 1g H2 = 1/2 mole 

⇒ 1/2×6.022 × 1023atoms 

⇒ 3.01 × 1023 

Thus, the mass possessed by certain number of oxygen atoms is 3.01 × 1023

17461.

Calculate the mass of 0.5 mole of N atoms.

Answer»

Given: 

Number of moles = 0.5 

Atomic mass of N = 14 u 

Molar mass of N = 14g/mol 

To calculate the mass, apply the formula:

Number of moles (n) = \(\frac{Molar\,(m)}{Molar\,mass\,(M)}\)

we can write:

Mass(m) = Number of moles (n) × Molar mass (M) 

Mass = 0.5 mol × 14g/mol 

Mass = 7g 

Thus, the mass of 0.5 mole of N atoms is 7g.

17462.

Calculate the number of aluminium ions present in 0.051 g of aluminium oxide. (Given: At. Mass of AL = 27 u)

Answer»

Given: At. Mass of AL = 27 u

Molar mass of aluminium oxide (Al2O3) = 2 × 27 + 3 × 16 = 54 + 48 = 102g

This means 102g of Al2O3 has 2 × 6.022 × 1023 molecules

Then 0.051g contains:

Number of Al3+ ions = \(\frac{Given\,mass}{Molar\,mass}\)x 2 x 6.022 x 1023

Number of Al3+ ions = \(\frac{0.051g}{102g}\)x 6.022 x 1023

⇒ Number of Al3+ ions = 6.022 x 1020

Thus.0.051 g of aluminium oxide contains 6.022 x 1020 aluminium ions.

17463.

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

Answer»

\(\frac{6.022\times 10^{23}}{256}\times 16\)

= 3.76 × 1022
