Q47 2025 Empirical Formula Calculation
Quantitative analysis of an organic compound (X) shows following % composition. mathrmC:14.5\% quad mathrmCl:64.46\% quad mathrmH:1.8\% The empirical formula mass of the compound (X) is mathrmx times 10^-1. The value of mathrmx is: (Given molar mass in mathrmg\,mol^-1 of C: 12, H: 1, O: 16, Cl: 35.5)
Numerical Answer. Answer: 1655 to 1655

Solution

### Step 1: Determine Oxygen Percentage The total percentage must equal 100%. The remaining composition corresponds to Oxygen: \%mathrmO = 100 - (14.5 + 64.46 + 1.8) = 100 - 80.76 = 19.24\% ### Step 2: Calculate Molar Ratios Divide each mass percentage by its respective atomic weight: - mathrmC: frac14.512 = 1.208 - mathrmCl: frac64.4635.5 = 1.815 - mathrmH: frac1.81 = 1.800 - mathrmO: frac19.2416 = 1.202 ### Step 3: Find Simple Integer Ratio Divide by the lowest ratio value (1.202): - mathrmC: frac1.2081.202 approx 1 rightarrow times 2 = 2 - mathrmCl: frac1.8151.202 approx 1.5 rightarrow times 2 = 3 - mathrmH: frac1.8001.202 approx 1.5 rightarrow times 2 = 3 - mathrmO: frac1.2021.202 = 1 rightarrow times 2 = 2 Thus, the empirical formula is mathrmC_2mathrmH_3mathrmCl_3mathrmO_2. ### Step 4: Compute Mass Empirical formula mass calculation: textMass = (2 times 12) + (3 times 1) + (3 times 35.5) + (2 times 16) textMass = 24 + 3 + 106.5 + 32 = 165.5\,mathrmg\,mol^-1 Expressing in the requested format: 165.5 = 1655 times 10^-1 Rightarrow x = 1655 ### Pattern Recognition Sees: Multi-element empirical calculation. Trap: Forgetting to compute Oxygen by missing that the percentages do not sum to 100% initial value. ### Evaluation Rubric / Model Answer null ### Chapter Mix Class 11 Chemistry: Some Basic Concepts of Chemistry
Q48 2025 Molarity of Solutions
The molarity of a 70\% (mass/mass) aqueous solution of a monobasic acid (X) is \_\_\_\_\_mathrmM (Nearest integer) [Given : Density of aqueous solution of (X) is 1.25mathrmg\,mathrmmL^-1 Molar mass of the acid is 70mathrmg\,mol^-1]
Numerical Answer. Answer: 12.5 to 13.5

Solution

### Related Formula Molarity formula based on mass percentage (w/w) and density (d): textMolarity = frac\%(w/w) times d times 10textMolar Mass of solute ### Step 1: Substitute Values Given values: \% = 70, d = 1.25\,mathrmg\,mL^-1, textMolar Mass = 70\,mathrmg\,mol^-1. textMolarity = frac70 times 1.25 times 1070 = 1.25 times 10 = 12.5\,mathrmM Rounding to the nearest integer gives 13 (or 12.5 as written in standard templates; let us provide 13 matching nearest integer constraints). ### Pattern Recognition Sees: Conversion of mass percentage to molarity tracking. Shortcut: Using the classic shortcut formula frac\% times d times 10M simplifies the arithmetic immediately. ### Evaluation Rubric / Model Answer null ### Chapter Mix Class 11 Chemistry: Some Basic Concepts of Chemistry
Q33 2025 Mole Concept - Number of Atoms
Among 10^-9text g (each) of the following elements, which one will have the highest number of atoms ? Element: Pb, Po, Pr and Pt
  • A. Po
  • B. Pr
  • C. Pb
  • D. Pt

Solution

### Related Formula The number of atoms in a given mass of an element is calculated using: textNumber of atoms = fractextMass (g)textMolar Mass (g/mol) times N_A ### Core Logic Since the mass (10^-9text g) is identical for all samples, the number of atoms is inversely proportional to the molar mass of the element: textNumber of atoms propto frac1textMolar Mass ### Step 1: Molar Mass Values Comparison Let us check the molar masses of the listed elements: * textMolar Mass of Po approx 209text g/mol * textMolar Mass of Pr approx 141text g/mol * textMolar Mass of Pb approx 207text g/mol * textMolar Mass of Pt approx 195text g/mol ### Step 2: Conclusion Praseodymium (Pr) has the least molar mass (141text g/mol), meaning it will yield the maximum total number of atoms for the specified mass sample. ### Pattern Recognition Shortcut: Equal mass given ightarrow Lighter atoms mean more atoms per gram. Find the element with the lowest atomic mass value from the choices. ### Evaluation Rubric / Model Answer null ### Chapter Mix Class 11 Chemistry: Some Basic Concepts of Chemistry
Q48 2025 Concentration Terms
Fortification of food with iron is done using mathrmFeSO_4cdot 7H_2O. The mass in grams of the mathrmFeSO_4cdot 7H_2O required to achieve 12mathrm~ppm of iron in 150mathrm~kg of wheat is _______. (Nearest integer) [Given: Molar mass of Fe, S and O respectively are 56, 32 and 16mathrm~g~mol^-1]
Numerical Answer. Answer: 9 to 9

Solution

### Related Formula textppm = fractextMass of solute (g)textTotal mass of solution/mixture (g) times 10^6 ### Core Logic Let the required mass of pure iron be wmathrm~g. The total mass of the wheat mixture is 150mathrm~kg = 150 times 10^3mathrm~g. Applying the parts-per-million concentration condition: 12 = fracw150 times 10^3 times 10^6 implies 12 = w times 6.666 w = frac12 times 150 times 10^310^6 = 1.8mathrm~g text of Iron Now, determine the molar mass of the complete green vitriol salt crystal template, mathrmFeSO_4 cdot 7H_2O: M = 56 + 32 + (4 times 16) + (7 times 18) = 56 + 32 + 64 + 126 = 278mathrm~g~mol^-1 Set up a stoichiometric mass balance proportion to find the total salt mass w_1: textMoles of Fe = frac1.856 = fracw_1278 w_1 = frac1.8 times 27856 = frac500.456 approx 8.935mathrm~g Rounding off to the nearest integer value gives **9**. ### Pattern Recognition Always convert concentration metrics back to absolute molar mass equivalence values before distributing across full hydrated molecular templates. ### Evaluation Rubric / Model Answer null ### Chapter Mix Class 11 Chemistry: Some Basic Concepts of Chemistry
