Solution:
Given volume of O2 at,
Number of moles = \(\frac{\text { S.T.P. }}{\text { Molar volume at } \mathrm{S} . \mathrm{T} \cdot \mathrm{P}}\)
Molar volume at S.T.P = \(\frac { 46 }{ 23 }\) = 2 moles
Number of moles of oxygen = \(\frac{5.6}{22.4}\) = 0.25 mole of oxygen

Question 3.
Calculate the number of moles of a sample that contains 12.046 × 1023 atoms of iron?
Solution:
Number of moles = \(\frac{\text { Number of atoms of iron }}{\text { Avogadro’s number }}\)

= \(\frac{2.24}{22.4}=0.1 \mathrm{mole}\)
Number of moles = \(\frac{\text { Mass }}{\text { Molecular mass }}\)
Mass = No. of moles × molecular mass
Mass = 0.1 × 64
Mass of SO2 = 6.4 g.

Question 3.
1.51 × 1023 molecules of water

= 1.51 × 1023 / 6.023 × 1023 = 1 / 4 = 0.25 mole
Number of moles = \(\frac{\text { Mass }}{\text { Molecular mass }}\)
0.25 = mass / 18
Mass = 0.25 × 18
Mass = 4.5 g.

Question 4.
5 × 1023 molecules of glucose?
Solution:
Molecular mass of glucose = 180

= 18.069 × 1023 molecules.

Question 4.
Calculate the number of atoms of oxygen and carbon in 5 moles of CO2.
Solution:

  • 1 mole of CO2 contains 2 moles of oxygen.
  • 5 moles of CO2 contains 10 moles of oxygen
    Number of atoms of oxygen = number of moles of oxygen × Avogadro’s number
    = 10 × 6.023 × 1023 = 6.023 × 1024 atoms of Oxygen.
  • 1 mole of CO2 contains 1 mole of carbon
  • 5 moles of CO2 contains 5 moles of carbon
    No. of atoms of carbon = No.of moles of carbon × Avogadro’s number
    = 5 × 6.023 × 1023 = 3.011 × 1024 atoms of Carbon.

V. Calculation based on molar volume

Calculate the volume occupied by:
Question 1.
2.5 mole of CO2 at S.T.P.
Solution:
\(\begin{array}{l}{\text { Number of moles of } \mathrm{CO}_{2}=\frac{\text { Given volume at S.T.P }}{\text { Molar volume at S.T.P }}} \\ {\qquad 2.5 \text { mole of } \mathrm{CO}_{2}=\frac{\text { Volume of } \mathrm{CO}_{2} \text { at } \mathrm{S} . \mathrm{TP}}{22.4}}\end{array}\)
Volume of CO2 at S.T.P = 22.4 × 2.5 = 56 litres.

Question 2.
3.011 × 1023 of ammonia gas molecules?
Solution:
Number of moles = \(\frac{\text { Number of molecules }}{\text { Avogadro’s number }}\)
= 3.011 × 1023 / 6.023 × 1023
= 2 moles
Volume occupied by NH3 = number of moles × molar volume
= 2 × 22.4 = 44.8 litres at S.T.P.

Question 3.
14 g nitrogen gas?
Solution:
Number of moles = \(\frac { 14 }{ 28 }\) = 0.5 mole
Volume occupied by N2 at S.T.P = No. of moles × molar volume
= 0.5 × 22.4
= 11.2 litres.

VI. Calculation based on % composition.

Question 1.
Calculate % of S in H2SO4
Solution:
Molar mass of H2SO4 = (1 × 2) + (32 × 1) + (16 × 4)
= 2 + 32 + 64
= 98 g.
\(\begin{array}{l}{\% \text { of } \mathrm{S} \text { in } \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{SO}_{4}=\frac{\text { Mass of sulphur }}{\text { Molar mass of } \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{SO}_{4}} \times 100} \\ {\% \text { of } \mathrm{S} \text { in } \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{SO}_{4}=\frac{32}{98} \times 100}\end{array}\)
= 32.65 %.

Question 5.
Derive the relationship between Relative molecular mass and Vapour density.
Answer:
(i) The Relative Molecular Mass of a gas or vapour is the ratio between the mass of one molecule of the gas or vapour to mass of one atom of Hydrogen.

(ii) Vapour density is the ratio of the mass of a certain volume of a gas or vapour, to the mass of an equal volume of hydrogen, measured under the same conditions of temperature and pressure.
Vapour Density (V.D.) = \(\frac{\text { Mass of a given volume of gas or vapour at S.T.P }}{\text { Mass of same volume of hydrogen }}\).

(iii) According to Avogadro’s law, equal volumes of all gases contain equal number of molecules. Thus, let the number of molecules in one volume = n, then

(iv) V.D at STP = \(\frac{\text { Mass of “n’molecules of a gas or vapour at S.T.P }}{\text { Mass of ‘n’molecules of hydrogen }}\)
Cancelling ‘n’ which is common, you get
V.D = \(\frac{\text { Mass of } 1 \text { molecule of a gas or vapour at S.T.P. }}{\text { Mass of } 1 \text { molecules of hydrogen }}\).

(v) Since hydrogen is diatomic
\(\mathrm{V} . \mathrm{D} .=\frac{\text { Mass of } 1 \text { molecule of a gas or vapour at S.T.P. }}{\text { Mass of } 2 \text { atoms of hydrogen }}\).

(vi) By comparing the definition of relative molecular mass and vapour density we can write as follows.
\(\mathrm{V.D.}=\frac{\text { Mass of } 1 \text { molecule of a gas or vapour at S.T.P. }}{2 \times \text { Mass of } 1 \text { atom of hydrogen }}\)
Relative molecular mass (hydrogen scale) \(=\frac{\text { Mass of } 1 \text { molecule of a gas or vapour at STP. }}{\text { Mass of } 1 \text { atom of hydrogen }}\).

(vii) By substituting the relative molecular mass value in vapour density definition, we get
Vapour density (V.D.) = Relative molecular mass / 2
⇒ 2 × vapour density = Relative molecular mass of a gas.

Molar mass of Aluminium Sulphate = (27 × 2) + (32 × 3) + (16 × 12) = 54 + 96 + 192 = 342 g
% of Oxygen \(=\frac{192}{342} \times 100=56.14 \%\).

Question 4.
Calculate the % relative abundance of B – 10 and B – 11, if its average atomic mass is 10.804 amu.
Solution:
The average atomic mass of Boron = 10.804 amu.
% relative abundance of B – 10 = ?
% relative abundance of B – 11 = ?
Let the fraction of relative abundance of B – 10 = x
Let the fraction of relative abundance of B – 11 = y
x + y = 1
y = 1 –  x
Relative abundance = x (10) + (1 – x) (11) = 10.804 amu
⇒ 10x + 11 – 11x = 10.804 amu
⇒ 11 – x = 10.804 amu
⇒ -x = 10.804 – 11
⇒ -x = -0.196
⇒ x = 0.196
x = % abundance of B – 10 = 0.196 × 100 = 19.6 %
y = % abundance of B – 11 = 100 – 19.6 = 80.4 %
Percentage abundance of B – 10 = 19.6 %
Percentage abundance of B – 11 = 80.4 %.
