AS-Chemistry- Work Sheet #1

1. Which one contains the highest number of oxygen atoms?


(a) 64.0 g of O2
(b) 3.00 mol of H2O
(c) 12.0x1023 O3 molecules
(d) 500 cm3 of 2.0 moldm-3 H2SO4 solution
(e) 48000 cm3 of CO2 gas at r.t.p.

2. Does 1 g of hydrogen molecules contain as many H atoms as 1 g of hydrogen atoms?

3. When heated, lithium reacts with nitrogen to form lithium nitride:


6Li(s) + N2 (g) 2Li3N (s)
What is the theoretical yield of Li3N in grams when 12.3 g of Li are heated with 33.6 g
of N2 ? If 5.89 g of Li3N is being produced, what is the percent yield of the reaction?

4. Consider production of F represented by the following equations:


4A + 5B 4C + 6D
2C + B 2E
2E + D F + G
What amount of A (in moles) must be used to produce 12 moles of F by the above
procedure, assuming an 80 percent yield in each step?

5. Lysine, an essential amino acid in the human body, contains C, H, O, and N. In one
experiment, the complete combustion of 2.175 g of lysine gave 3.94 g CO2 and 1.89 g
H2O. In a separate experiment, 1.873 g of lysine gave 0.436 g NH3.
(a) Calculate the empirical formula of lysine.
(b) The approximate molar mass of lysine is 150 g. What is the molecular formula of
the compound?

6. Air is a mixture of many gases. However, in calculating its “molar mass” we need
consider only the three major components: nitrogen, oxygen, and argon. Given that
one mole of air at sea level is made up of 78.08 percent nitrogen, 20.95 percent
oxygen, and 0.97 percent argon, what is the molar mass of air?

7. Chemical analysis of a gaseous compound showed that it contained 33.0 percent


silicon (Si) and 67.0 percent fluorine (F) by mass. At 35°C, 0.210 L of the compound
exerted a pressure of 1.70 atm. If the mass of 0.210 L of the compound was 2.38 g,
calculate the molecular formula of the compound. (1atm = 101325 Pa)

8. Calculate the volume of O2 required for the complete combustion of 7.64 dm3 of
acetylene (C2H2) measured at the same temperature and pressure.

2C2H2(g) + 5O2(g) 4CO2(g) + 2H2O(l)


9. A gaseous reaction takes place at constant volume and constant pressure in a cylinder
shown here. Which of the following equations best describes the reaction? The initial
temperature ( T1 ) is twice that of the final temperature ( T2 ).
(a) A B + C
(b) AB C + D
(c) A + B C + D
(d) A + B 2C + D

10. The concentration of Cu2+ ions in the water (which also contains sulfate ions)
discharged from a certain industrial plant is determined by adding excess sodium
sulfide (Na2S) solution to 0.800 dm3 of the water. The molecular equation is

Na2S(aq) + CuSO4(aq) Na2SO4(aq) + CuS(s)

Write the net ionic equation and calculate the molar concentration of Cu2+ in the water
sample if 0.0177 g of solid CuS is formed.
