2. Questions for Short Answers

i. Write down the chemical formula of barium nitride.
The chemical formula of barium nitride is Ba₃N₂.
Explanation: Barium (Ba) is an alkaline earth metal with a +2 oxidation state, and nitride (N) is a nonmetal with a -3 charge. To balance the charges, three barium ions combine with two nitride ions, forming Ba₃N₂.


ii. Find out the molecular formula of a compound whose empirical formula is CH₂O and its molar mass is 180.
Step 1: Calculate the molar mass of the empirical formula (CH₂O).
Molar mass of CH₂O = 12 (C) + 2(1) (H) + 16 (O) = 30 g/mol.

Step 2: Determine the ratio of the molecular formula to the empirical formula.
Ratio=Molar mass of compound / Molar mass of empirical formula=180/30=6.

Step 3: Multiply the empirical formula by the ratio.
Molecular formula = (CH2O)6=C6H12O6 = C₆H₁₂O₆.
The molecular formula of the compound is C₆H₁₂O₆ (glucose).


iii. How many molecules are present in 1.5 g H₂O?
Step 1: Calculate the molar mass of water (H₂O).
Molar mass = 2(1) + 16 = 18 g/mol.

Step 2: Find the number of moles in 1.5 g of H₂O.
Moles = Mass/Molar mass=1.5/18=0.0833 mol

Step 3: Calculate the number of molecules using Avogadro’s number (6.022×1023 molecules/mol)
Number of molecules = 0.0833×6.022×1023=5.02×1022
Thus, there are approximately 5.02×1022


iv. What is the difference between a mole and Avogadro’s number?

  • Mole: A mole is a unit in chemistry that represents a quantity of substance. One mole of any substance contains the same number of particles (atoms, molecules, or ions) as there are in 12 g of carbon-12.
  • Avogadro’s Number: Avogadro’s number is a constant that defines the number of particles in one mole of a substance. It is equal to 6.022×1023 particles/mol

Difference: The mole is a quantity (like a dozen), while Avogadro’s number provides the specific count of particles in one mole.

Balanced chemical equation:
Cu+2H₂SO₄→CuSO₄+SO₂+2H₂O


3. Constructed Response Questions

i. Different compounds will never have the same molecular formula but can have the same empirical formula. Explain.

  • The empirical formula represents the simplest whole-number ratio of elements in a compound, whereas the molecular formula shows the exact number of atoms of each element in a molecule.
  • Example: Acetic acid (C₂H₄O₂) and glucose (C₆H₁₂O₆) have the same empirical formula (CH₂O), but their molecular formulas are different.
  • Explanation: Compounds with different molecular structures can share the same empirical formula because the molecular formula is a multiple of the empirical formula.

ii. Write down the chemical formulas of the following compounds.

  1. Calcium phosphate: Ca₃(PO₄)₂
  2. Aluminium nitride: AlN
  3. Sodium acetate: CH₃COONa
  4. Ammonium carbonate: (NH₄)₂CO₃
  5. Bismuth sulphate: Bi₂(SO₄)₃

iii. Why does Avogadro’s number have immense importance in chemistry?
Avogadro’s number (6.022×1023 is essential in chemistry because:

  • It allows chemists to calculate the number of particles in a given mass of substance.
  • It is crucial for determining stoichiometric relationships in chemical reactions, enabling precise calculations for reactants and products.

iv. When 8.657 g of a compound were converted into elements, it gave 5.217 g of carbon, 0.962 g of hydrogen, and 2.478 g of oxygen. Calculate the percentage of each element present in this compound.
Step 1: Calculate the total mass of the compound.
Total mass = 5.217+0.962+2.478=8.657 g

Step 2: Calculate the percentage of each element.

  • Carbon: 5.2178.657×100=60.3%
  • Hydrogen: 0.9628.657×100=11.1%
  • Oxygen: 2.4788.657×100=28.6%

  4. Reaction conditions: Specify the conditions such as temperature, pressure, or the use of catalysts if required for the reaction.

ii. Explain the concepts of Avogadro’s number and mole.
