When 3.0g of carbon is burnt in 8.00 g oxygen, 11.00g of carbon dioxide is produced. What mass of carbon dioxide will be formed when 3.00g of carbon is burnt in 50.00g of oxygen? Which law of chemical combination will govern your answer.

Answer»

Solution :3.0g of carbon combines with 8.0 g of oxygen to give 11.0 of `Co_(2)`
If 3 g of carbon is BURNT in 50 g of oxygen, then 3g of carbon will react with 8 gofoxygen. The remaining 42 gofoxygen will be left un-reactive.
In this CASE also, only 1lg of CO, will be formed. The above answer is governed by the law of constant proportions.

What is catenation? How does carbon form catenated compounds?

Answer»

SOLUTION :Catenation is the binding of an element to itself or with other elements through covalent bonds to form open chain or closed chain compounds.
Carbon is the most COMMON element which undergoes catenation and forms long chain compounds. Carbon atom links repeatedly to itself through covalent bond to form linear chain, branched chain or ring STRUCTURE. This property of carbon itself is the reason for the presence of large NUMBER of organic carbon compounds. So organic chemistry deals with catenated carbon compounds.

Write the equilibrium expressions (K_(C )) for the decomposition of 2 moles of sulphur trioxide and relate it to K_(C ) of the reaction carried out with 1 mole and 4 moles of SO_(3), respectively.

Answer»

Solution :`K_(c )` value for the equilibrium REACTION `2SO_(3) implies 2SO_(2)+O_(2)` is
`K_(c_(1))`=([SO_(2)]^(2)[O_(2)])/(SO_(3)]^(2))`
`K_(c )` value for the equilibrium reaction `SO_(3) implies SO_(2)+(1)/(2)O_(2)` is
`K_(c_(2))=([SO_(2)][O_(2)]^(1/2))/([SO_(3)])`
`therefore_(c_(2))=K_(c_(1))^(2)`
`K_(c )` value for the equilibrium reaction `4SO_(3) implies 4SO_(2)+2O_(2)` is
`K_(c_(3))=([SO_(2)]^(4)[O_(2)]^(2))/([SO_(3)]^(4)`
`THEREFORE K_(c_(3))=sqrt(K_(c_(1)))`

Which has more number of atoms, 100 grams of sodium or 100 grams of iron ? (Given : atomic mass of Na = 23 u, Fe = 56 u.)

Answer»

Solution :23 g of Na (i.e., 1 MOLE) = `6.022 xx 10^(23)` atoms
`:.` 100G of Na = `(100 xx 6.022 xx 10^(23))/(23) = 26.18 xx 10^(23) = 2.618 xx 10^(24)` atoms .......(1)
56g of Fe (i.e., 1 mole) = `6.022 xx 10^(23)` atoms
`:.` 100 g of Fe =`(100 xx 6.022 xx 10^(23))/(56) = 10.75 xx 10^(23) = 1.075 xx 10^(24)` atoms .......(2)
From (1) and (2), 100 g of Na has more atoms than 100 g of Fe.

The rate for the reaction X to Y is studied at 25^(@)C by varying conditions of reaction.In experiment (i) the rate of reaction is found out to be 5xx10^(-2) mole L^(-1)s^(-1). In experiment (ii) the rate of reaction is found out be 8xx10^(-1) " mole " L^(-1)s^(-1). Account for the veriation in rate of reaction.

Answer»

Solution :RATE of reaction depends upon concentration, catalyst, etc., at a GIVEN temperature.
The more the initial concentration of reactant, the more is the rate of reaction. Since in experiment (ii), the rate is higher the initial concentration of X could be more.
Rate of catalysed reaction is greater than that of UNCATALYSED REACTIN. Since in experiment (ii) , the rate of reaction is higher a POSITIVE catalyst might have been used.
