Zinc sulphate contains 22.65% Zn and 43.9% $H _2O$. If the law of constant proportions is true, then the mass of zinc required to give 40 g crystals will be:

  1. 90.6 g

  2. 9.06 g

  3. 0.906 g

  4. 906 g
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

$ZnSO _4-22.65\% Zn $ $43.9\% H _2O$


$100g$ crystal has $22.65$ $Zn$


$40g$ crystal has $x$ $Zn$

$x=\cfrac{40\times 22.65}{100}=\cfrac{906}{100}=9.06g$
Hence, mass of $Zinc$ required is $9.06g$.

3 volumes of hydrogen are required to combine with one volume of nitrogen to form 2 volumes of ammonia. When 1 mole of hydrogen is allowed to react with the mole of nitrogen, the two gases?

  1. Do not combine

  2. Combine and both the gases are used up completely

  3. 2/3 mole of nitrogen remains unreacted

  4. Some hydrogen remains uncombined
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

$3H _2+N _2\rightarrow 3NH _3$
So 3 moles of hydrogen produced 1 mole of ammonia
1 mole hydrogen produces $X$ moles of ammonia
$X=\dfrac{1\times 1}{3}=\dfrac{1}{3}$ moles
Hence option $C$ is correct.

If a mixture containing 3 moles of hydrogen and 1 mole of nitrogen is converted completely into ammonia, the ratio of initial and final volumes under the same temperature and pressure would be:

  1. 3 : 1

  2. 1 : 3

  3. 2 : 1

  4. 1 : 2

C Correct answer
Explanation

3 moles of hydrogen and 1 mole of nitrogen is convened completely into ammonia.

$3H _2+N _2\rightarrow 2NH _3$

Hence option C is correct.

So 4 volumes of reactants (3+1) and 2 volumes of products that is the ratio of initial and final is 2:1

If water samples are taken from the sea, rivers, clouds, lakes or snow, they will be found to contain hydrogen and oxygen in the ration of $1 : 8$. This clearly demonstrates the law of ?

  1. Chemical equilibrium

  2. Definite proportions

  3. Combining volumes

  4. The relation of elements in the periodic tables
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation
In chemistry, the law of definite proportion states that a given chemical compound always contains its component elements in a fixed ratio (by mass) and does not depend on its source and method of preparation. Since in all the water samples given, taken from the sea, rivers, clouds, lakes or snow, the hydrogen and oxygen ratio is constant, hence it clearly demonstrates the law of definite proportions.

Water will start comparing electrostatically,


$2H _2O \underset{electroysis}{\rightarrow} 2H _2+O _2$


These gases are hydrogen and oxygen.

A sample of pure water, irrespective of source, contains 88.89% oxygen and 11.11% hydrogen
by mass. The data supports the:

  1. law of conservation of mass

  2. law of constant composition

  3. law of multiple proportion

  4. law of reciprocal proportion
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

According to the law of constant composition in a given compound, the elements always combine in the same proportion as each other.

Water($H _{2}O$) molecule consists of two hydrogen atoms of relative mass 1 and one oxygen atom of relative mass 16. 

Therefore, the ratio in which 2 atoms of hydrogen and one atom of oxygen are combined is $1:8$ and will always be the same irrespective of the source of water.

Therefore, the correct option is $B$

When one mole each of CO and $O _2$ are made to react at STP, the total number of moles at an end of the reaction is:

  1. 1.5 moles

  2. 1 mole

  3. 4 moles

  4. 2 moles
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

$2CO + O _2 \rightarrow 2CO _2$


Initially, we have one mole of each CO and $O _2$.

1 mole of CO will react with 0.5 mole of $O _2$ to form 1 mole of $CO _2$.

the total no. of moles at the end of the reaction is 0.5 mole $O _2$ + 1 mole of CO$ _2$= 1.5 moles

Zinc sulphate contains $22.65$% $Zn$ and $43.9$% ${H} _{2}O$. If the law of constant proportions is true, then the mass of zinc required to give $40g$ crystal will be:

  1. $9.06g$
  2. $90.6g$
  3. $0.906g$
  4. $906g$

A Correct answer
Explanation
100g of crystals are obtained from = 22.65g of $Zn$

$\therefore $ 40 g of crystals are obtained from =$\frac { 22.65 }{ 100 } \times40$

= 9.06g

Which of the following statements is/are correct?

  1. A sample of $CaCO _3$ contains $Ca = 40\%,\ C = 12\%$ and $O= 48\%$. If the law of constant composition is true, then the mass of $Ca$ in $10$ g of $CaCO _3$ from another source is $4.0$ g.
  2. $12$ g of carbon is heated in vacuum and there is no change in the mass. This is the best example of the law of conservation of mass.

  3. Air is heated at constant pressure and there is no change in mass but the volume increases. This is the best example of the law of conservation of mass.
  4. $SO _2$ gas was prepared by (i) heating $Cu $ with conc. $H _2SO _4$ (ii) burning sulphur in oxygen (iii) reacting sodium sulphite $(Na _2SO _3)$ with dilute $H _2SO _4$. It was observed that is each case, $S$ and $O$ combine in the ratio of $1:1$. This data illustrates the law of constant composition.
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A,D Correct answer
Explanation

(A) A sample of $CaCO _3$ contains $Ca = 40\%$, $C = 12\%$ and $O= 48\%$. If the law of constant composition is true, then the mass of $Ca$ in $10$ g of $CaCO _3$ from another source is $\dfrac {40 \times 10 }{100}= 4.0 $ g


According to the law of constant composition, all samples of a given chemical compound have the same elemental composition by mass.
Hence, the statement A is true.

(B) $12$ g of carbon is heated in vacuum and there is no change in the mass. This is not the best example of the law of conservation of mass as there is no chemical transformation involved since there is a vacuum.
The Law of Conservation of Mass states that matter can be changed from one form into another, mixtures can be separated or made and pure substances can be decomposed but the total amount of mass remains constant.
Hence, the statement B is false.

(C) Air is heated at constant pressure and there is no change in mass but the volume increases. This is not the best example of the law of conservation of mass as there is no chemical transformation involved since there is a vacuum.

The Law of Conservation of Mass states that matter can be changed from one form into another, mixtures can be separated or made and pure substances can be decomposed but the total amount of mass remains constant.
Hence, the statement C is false.

(D) $SO _2$ gas was prepared by (i) heating $Cu$ with conc. $H _2SO _4$ (ii) burning sulphur in oxygen (iii) reacting sodium sulphite $(Na _2SO _3)$ with dilute $H _2SO _4$. It was observed that is each case, S and O combine in the ratio of $1:1$. This data illustrates the law of constant composition.

According to the law of constant composition, all samples of a given chemical compound have the same elemental composition by mass.

Hence, the statement D is true.
