Question 11.
Carbon form two oxides, the first contains 42.9% C and the second contains 27.3% carbon. Show that these are in agreement with the law of multiple proportions.
Answer:
In the first compound:
C = 42.9%
O = 100-42.9 = 57.1%
So, the ratio between the masses of C and O = 42.9:57.1 = 1:1.33
In the second compound:
C = 27.3%
O= 100-27.3= 72.7%
So, the ratio between the masses of C and O = 27.3 : 72.7= 1:2.66
Hence, the ratio of masses of oxygen which combines with a fixed mass of carbon is 1.33:2.66 or 1:2, a simple whole number ratio. This illustrates the law of multiple proportions.

Answer:
The reaction is represented as,
Plus One Chemistry Chapter Wise Questions and Answers Chapter 1 Some Basic Concepts of Chemistry 4
According to the equation, 96 g of oxygen is obtained from 245 g of KCIO3.
Hence mass of oxygen obtained from 50 g KCIO3 is \(\frac{96 \times 50}{245}=19.6 \mathrm{g}\)
According to the equation 245 g of KCIO3 gives 3 moles of O2 at STP which is 3 × 22.4 L = 67.2 L
Volume of oxygen liberated by 50g of KCIO3

Question 16.
Calculate the number of molecules present in

  1. 11g of CO2.
  2. 56 mL Of CO2 at STP.

Answer:
1. \(\frac{11}{44}\) = 0.25 mole
1 mole of CO2 contains 6.022 × 1023 molecules.
∴ 0.25 mole CO2 contains 6.022 × 1023 × 0.25
= 1.51 × 1023 molecules.

2. 56 mL = 0.056 L
\(\frac{0.056}{22.4}\) =0.0025 mole
= 6.022 × 1023 × 0.0025=1.5 × 1021 molecules

What mass of CaCO3 is required to react completely with 25 mL of 0.75 M HCl?.
Answer:
Mass of HCI in 0.25 mL 0.75 M HCl \(=\frac{36.5 \times 0.75 \times 0.25}{1000}=0.6844 \mathrm{g}\)

2. When two elements combine to form more than one compound the different masses of one of the elements combining with fixed mass of the other element bear a simple ratio. ,
eg. Carbon reacts with oxygen to form two compounds viz. CO and CO2. In CO mass ratio is 12:16. In CO2 mass ratio is 12:32. Then mass ratio between oxygen in the 2 compounds is 16:32 or 1:2 which is a simple whole number ratio. Hence, the law is verified.

a) Calculate the mass of 11.2 L of oxygen gas at STP.
b) Calculate the number of atoms present in the above sample.
2. 21 g of nitrogen gas is mixed with 5 g of hydrogen gas to yield ammonia according to the equation.
N2 + 3H2 → 2NH3
Calculate the maximum amount of ammonia that can be formed.
Answer:
1. a) Mass of 22.4 L oxygen at STP = 32 g
∴ Mass of 11.2 L oxygen at STP = 16 g
b) No. of atoms present in 16 g of O2
\(\frac{6.02 \times 10^{23}}{2}\) ×2 = 6.02 × 1023 atoms

2. N2 + 3H2 → 2NH3
1 mole N2 + 3 mole H2 → 2moles NH3
1 mole N2 requires 3 mol H2
i.e., 28g N2 requires 6 g H2
Hence, 21 g N2 requires \(\frac{6 \times 21}{28}\) = 4.5 g H2
21 g N2 reacts completely and 0.5g H2 remains unreacted.
Hence, N2 is the limiting reagent.

In air combustion is complete.
Hence, Amount of CO2 produced when 1 mole of carbon is burnt in air = 44 g

2. As only 16 g dioxygen is available it is the limiting reagent.
Hence, amount of CO2 produced = \(\frac{44}{32}\)×16 = 22 g

Chlorine is prepared in the laboratory by treating manganase dioxide (MnO2) with aqueous hydrochloric acid according to the reaction,
4HCl(aq) + MnO2(s) → 2H2O(l) + MnCl2(aq) + Cl2(g)
How many grams of HCl react with 5.0 g of manganese dioxide?
(Atomic mass of Mn = 54.94 u) (2)
Answer:
1 mol of MnO2, i.e., 54.94 + 32 = 86.94 g MnO2 react with 4 moles of HCl, i.e., 4 × 36.5 g = 146 g of HCl.
∴ Mass of HCl reacting with 5.0 g of MnO2
\(=\frac{146}{86.94} \times 5 \mathrm{g}=8.4 \mathrm{g}\)
