5. The equivalent mass of a trivalent metal element is 9 g eq-1 the molar mass of its anhydrous oxide is

(a)  102 g

(b) 27 g

(c) 270 g

(d) 78 g 

Answer: (a) 102 g

Solution:

 Let the trivalent metal be M3+

 Equivalent mass = mass of the metal / valance factor

 9 g eq-1 = mass of the metal / 3 eq

 Mass of the metal = 27 g

 Oxide formed M2O3 ;

 Mass of the oxide = (2 x 27) + (3 x 16)

Answer: (c) 6.022 x 1020

Solution:

Weight of the water drop  =0.018 g

No. of moles of water in the drop=Mass of water / molar mass

=  0.018 / 18 = 10-3 mole

No of water molecules present in 1 mole of water= 6.022 x 1023

No. water molecules in one drop of water (10-3 mole)= 6.022 x 1023x 10-3

=6.022 x 1020

No. of moles of water present in 180 g

= Mass of water / Molar mass of water

= 180 g / 18 g mol-1 = 10 moles

One mole of water contains

= 6.022 x 1023 water molecules

10 mole of water contains = 6.022 x 1023 x 10 = 6.022 x 1024 water molecules

Answer: (a) NO

Solution:

7.5 g of gas occupies a volume of 5.6 liters at 273 K and 1 atm pressure Therefore,

the mass of gas that occupies a volume of 22.4 liters

=7.5g / 5.6 L = 30g

No of molesof ammonia

=Mass/Molar mass

=1.7g/ 17 gmol-1

=0.1 mol

No of molecules present in 0.1 mol of ammonia

= 0.1x 6.022 x1025= 6.022 x 1022

No of elec . n trons present in mol of ammonia

=10 x 6.022 x1022 =  6.022x1023

Solution:

No, of moles of oxygen=8 g/32 g

=0.25 moles of oxygen

No. of moles of sulphur dioxide=8 g / 64 g

=0.125 moles of sulphur dioxide

Ratio between the no. of molecules=0.25: 0.125

=2:1

 

20. What is the mass of precipitate formed when 50 ml of 8.5 % solution of AgNO3 is mixed with 100 ml of 1.865 % potassium chloride solution?

(a)  3.59 g

(b) 7 g

(c) 14 g

(d) 28 g 

Answer: (a) 3.59 g

Solution:

AgNO3 + KCl → KNO3 + AgCl

50 mL of 8.5 % solution contains 4.25 g of AgNO3

No. of moles of AgNO3 present in 50 mL of 8.5 % AgNO3 solution

=Mass / Molar mass

=4.25 / 170

=0.025 moles

Similarly, No of moles of KCl present in 100 mL of 1.865 % KCl solution

=1.865 / 74.5

=0.025 moles

So total amount of AgCl formed is 0.025 moles (based on the stoichiometry)

 Amount of AgCl present in 0.025 moles of AgCl

=no. of moles x molar mass

=0.025 x 143.5 = 3.59 g

 

21. The mass of a gas that occupies a volume of 612.5 ml at room temperature and pressure (250 c and 1 atm pressure) is 1.1g. The molar mass of the gas is

(b) 44 g mol-1

(c) 24.5 g mol-1

d) 662.5 g mol-1 

Answer: (b)   44 g mol-1

Solution:

No. of moles of a gas that occupies a volume of 612.5 mL at room temperature and pressure (25 0 C and 1 atm pressure)

=612.5 × 10-3  L / 24.5 Lmol-1

=0.025 moles

We know that,

Molar mass  =Mass / no. of moles

=1.1 g /0.025 mol = 44 g mol-1

Answer: (c) both (a) & (b)

Solution:

No. of moles of carbon present in 6 g of C-12 = Mass / Molar mass

=6/12 = 0.5 moles = 0.5 × 6.022 × 1023 carbon atoms. No. of moles in 8 g of methane = 8 / 16 = 0.5 moles

=0.5 × 6.022 × 1023 carbon atoms.

=2 × 0.25 × 6.022 × 1023 carbon atoms.
