ASSIGNMENT

1. How many grams per mL of NaCl are contained in a 0.250 M solution? (Formula weight= 58.44
g/mol)

2. Calculate the normality of the solutions containing 5.267g/L K2Cr2O7 (the Cr is reduced to Cr3+).
(FW=294.19 g/mol)

3. How many mL of concentrated HCl, 38.0% (wt/wt), density 1.19g/mL, are required to prepare 1L
of a 0.100 M solution? (Formula weight HCl=36.46 g/mol).

4. Calculate the mass of magnesium oxide possible if 2.40 g Mg reacts with 10.0 g O2 (AW of Mg=
24.3 g/mol; MgO = 40.3 g/mol)

5. Potassium chlorate decomposes upon slight heating in the presence of a catalyst according to the
reaction below:
2KClO3 (s) → 2KCl (s) + 3O2 (g)

In a certain experiment, 40.0 g KClO3 is heated until it completely decomposes. What is the
theoretical yield of oxygen gas? The experiment is performed and the oxygen gas is collected and
its mass is found to be 14.9g. What is the percent yield for the reaction? (Molar mass
KClO3=122.55g/mol; Molar mass O2=32.00g/mol).

6. Consider the following reaction:

3NH4NO3 + Na3PO4 → (NH4)3PO4 + 3NaNO3

Assuming we started with 30.0 g of ammonium nitrate and 50.0 g of sodium phosphate,
[FW of NH4NO3= 80.05 g/mol ; Na3PO4= 163.94 g/mol ; (NH4)3PO4= 149.08 g/mol ; NaNO3=
84.99 g/mol ]

(a) which reactant is limiting?

(b) what is the mass of each product that can be formed?
(c) if 16.9 g of ammonium phosphate are formed in the reaction, what is the percentage yield of
this reaction?
(d) what mass of the excess reactant is left over?

7. A and B react as follows: A + B 2C. The equilibrium constant is 5.0 x 106. If 0.40 mol of A
and 0.70 mol of B are mixed in 1L, what are the concentrations of A, B and C after reaction?

8. The following data is given at a certain temperature:

(1) 2N2 (g) + O2 (g) 2N2O (g) K1 = 1.2 x 10-35

(2) N2O4 (g) 2NO2 (g) K2 = 4.6 x 10-3
(3) ½N2 (g) + O2 (g) NO2 (g) K3 = 4.1 x 10-9
