1. Option (3)
Ratio of sulphur and oxygen is fixed. This illustrates law of constant proportions.
2. Option (2)
Barium chloride and sodium sulphate react to produce barium sulphate and sodium chloride
according to the equation :
BaCl2 + Na2SO4 ⎯⎯→ BaSO4 + 2NaCl
xg 24.4 g 46.6 g 23.4 g
Let the mass of BaCl2 be x g. According to law of conservation of mass :
Total mass of reactants = Total mass of products
Total mass of reactants = ( x + 24.4) g
Total mass of products = (46.6 + 23.4) g
Equating the two masses x + 24.4 = 46.6 + 23.4
x = 46.6 + 23.4 – 24.4
x = 45.6 g
Hence, the mass of BaCl2 is 45.6 g

Law of constant composition states that no matter the source or amount of the compound, the
relative masses of the elements inside it are always the same like in water.
7. Option (1)
The law of constant composition says that the composition of compound always remains the
same irrespective of the fact where the compound is taken from.
8. Option (4)
The mass of oxygen given in the question is 13.6 grams
Molecular mass O2 = 32 g/mol
Rxn → 2C + O2→ 2CO …(1)
C + O2 → CO2 …(2)
13.6
Moles of O2 = = 0.425moles
32
From Rxn (i) using stoichiometry
1 mole of O2 reacts with 2 moles of C = 0.850 moles
Mass of carbon = 0.850×12 = 10.2 grams
Now in second reaction
1 mole C reacts with 1 mole O2 to gives 1 mole CO2
Moles of O2 = 0.850 = moles of carbon
Mass in grams = 0.850 × 32(molar mass of O2)
 27.2 grams
9. Option (2)
In chemistry, the law of multiple proportions states that if two elements form more than one

Answer 3 4 4 4 3 4 3 3

1. Option (3)
The molecular weights of a given mixture of gases are
Oxygen = 32
Hydrogen = 2
Methane = 16
Since masses are equal, assume mass as x.
So, By using formula

No. of moles = mass

Mwt.
x x x
nO2 = nH2 = nCHn =
32 2 16
Ratio 1 : 16 : 2
2. Option (4)
Gay Lussac’s law of gaseous volume is derived from experimental observations
3. Option (4)
In this reaction, N2 + 3H2→2NH3, the ratio of volume of N2, H2 and NH3 is 1:3:2.
This illustrates law of gaseous volume.
4. Option (4)
None of these because it is according to law of definite proportion.
5. Option (3)
According to the law of reciprocal proportion the weights of two elements combining with a fixed
amount of the third element will bear the same ratio in which they themselves react.
6. Option (4)
Law of reciprocal proportion is the correct option.

If two different elements combine separately with a fixed mass of a third element the ratio of the
masses in which they do so are either the same or a simple multiple of the ratio of the masses in which
they combine with each other.

7. Option (3)
Given,
12g C combines with 64g S to give CS2
12g C combines with 32 g O to give CO2
Also, 10g S combines with 10g O to give SO2
In CS2 C : S = 12 : 64 = 3 : 16
In CO2 C : O = 12 : 32 = 3 : 8
From, CS2 & CO2, S : O = 16 : 8 = 2 : 1
Also in SO2 S : O = 10 : 10 = 1 : 1
 2 : 1 is multiple of 1: 1
1 2
2 =
1 1
 Law of reciprocal proportions is illustrated here.
8. Option (3)
According to Gay Lussac’s law of gaseous volumes, gases combine or are produced in a chemical
reaction in a simple ratio by volume, provided that all gases are at the same temperature and
pressure.
In this
H2 + Cl2→ 2HCl
1 mole of H2 combined with 1 mole of Chlorine and 2 moles of Hydrogen chloride.
9. Gay Lussac’s law of gaseous volumes.
According to Gay Lussac’s law of gaseous volumes, gases combine or are produced in a chemical
reaction in a simple ratio by volume, provided that all gases are at the same temperature and
pressure.

10.

In CO2 % of C = 27.27
% of O = 100 – 27.27 = 72.73
27.27 g of ‘C’ combines with 72.73 g of ‘O’

Hence, 1g of ‘C’ combines with 72.73 = 2.67 of ‘O’

27.27
In CS2% of C = 15.79%

[20]  Digital
 Foundation JEE-NEET

CS2% of S = 84.21
15.79 g of C combines with 84.21 g of sulphur.
84.21
Hence, 1 g of C combines with g  5.33g
15.79
The ratio between oxygen of CO2 and sulphur of CS2 is
5.33
2/1
2.67
Now the ratio in which ‘S’ and ‘O’ combines is 1 : 1 this data illustrates law of reciprocal
proportions.

Answer 1

1. Option (2)
2 g atoms
Molar Mass of H2O = 18 g/mol
Given mass of H2O = 18 g
18g
No. of moles = = 1mole
18g/mol
1 mole of H2O contains 2 moles of ‘H’ atom i.e. 2 g atoms of hydrogen
2. Option (1)
0.02 g of H2
Molar Mass of CO2 = 44 g/mol
Given mass = 0.44 g
0.44 g
Moles of CO2 = = 0.01
44g/mol
1 mole of a gas at NTP occupies 22.4 L Volume
0.01 mole of CO2 occupies
= 0.01×22.4=0.224 L
0.02g
Now moles of H2 = = 0.01
2g/mol
So volume occupied by 0.1 moles of H2
= 0.01 × 22.4 = 0.224 L
3. Option (1)
Carbon dioxide
 1 mole of a gas occupies 22.4 L volume at STP 2.24 L volume is occupied by 4.4 g

4.4
So 22.4 L volume is occupied by −  22.4 = 44 g
2.24
The gas is carbon dioxide.

4. Option (1)

(2) nCO = 11.2 = 0.5mol
2
22.4
No. of molecules = 0.5 NA
22g
(3) nCO2 = = 0.5mol
44g
0.5N A
No. of molecules =
3
22.4  103
(4) nCO2 = = 1mol
22400
No. of molecules = NA
So, 0.1 mole of CO2 gas has the smallest number of molecules.
5. Option (2)
Molar mass is mass of 1 mole of a substance expressed in grams.
6. Option (1)
11.2cm3
nN2 = = 0.005
22400cm3
Number of atoms = 0.0005×2×NA = 0.001 NA
0.015g
nNO = = 0.0005
30g/mol
Number of atoms = 0.0005×2× NA = 0.001 NA
Hence 11.2 cm3 of N2 and 0.015 g of NO contain equal number of atoms.
7. Option (2)
Gram atomic mass of Cu = 63.5
No. of moles of 0.635 of Cu
= 0.635 = 0.01
63.5
No. of Cu atoms in one mole = 6.02×1023
No. of Cu atoms in 0.01
mole = 0.01 × 6.02 × 1023 = 6.02 × 1021
8. Option (1)
Mol. Wt. of CH4 = 16
No. of moles in 1.6 g = 0.1
No. of molecules in 1.6 g = 0.1×6.02×1023
Each molecule contains 6+4=10 electrons
No. of electrons present in 1.6g

10. Option (1)
Molar mass of SO2Cl2 is
32 + (2 ×16) + (35.5×2)

11. Option (1)
3.0115×1024
 1 mole of CaCO3 = 100 g
Number of protons in 100 g (1 mole) of CaCO3

So, Number of protons in 10 g of CaCO3
= 50  10
100
= 5 moles of protons
= 5 × 6.02 × 1023
= 3.01×1024 protons
12. Option (4)
One mole of Nitrogen(N2) = 28 g
= 6.02×1023 molecules
Half a mole of oxygen (O2) = 16 g
= 3.01×1023 molecules
Hence one mole of nitrogen and half a mole of oxygen does not weigh same.

Answer key

Question 1 2 3
Answer 1 4 4

1. Option (1)
9.8 m
Let n1 and n2 be the number of moles of water and H2SO4 respectively then-
n2
X water = = 0.85
n1 + n 2
1000g
Now n1 = = 55.55
18g
Mole fraction of H2SO4 = 1-0.85 = 0.15
n2
 0.15 =
n1 + n 2
n2
0.15 =
55.55 + n2
n2 = 0.15 n2 + 8.3325
0.85 n2 = 8.3325
n2 = 9.8
Molality of H2SO4 solution means the number of moles of H2SO4 present in 1000 g of H2O
 Molality = 9.8 m
2. Option (4)
0.08 N
Normality = Molarity × n (Valency factor)
for H2SO4
n=2
 N = 0.04 × 2
N = 0.08
3. Option (4)
0.9 N
Normality = Molarity × n (Valency factor)
for H3PO4
n=3
 N = 0.3 × 3
N = 0.9

4. Mass of NaOH = 4 g
Molar Mass of NaOH = 40 g/mol
Number of moles of NaOH
4g
= = 0.1mol
40g
Mass of H2O = 36 g
Molar mass of H2O = 18 g/mol
36g
Number of moles of H2O = = 2mol
18g
Mole fraction of water
Number of moles of H2O
=
No. of moles of water+No. of moles of NaOH
2 2
= = = 0.95
2 + 01 2.1
Mole fraction of NaOH
Number of moles of NaOH
=
No. of moles of NaOH+No. of moles of water

= 0.1 = 0.1 = 0.047

2 + 01 2.1
Mass of solution = mass of water + mass of NaOH = 36 + 4 g = 40 g
Volume of solution = 40×1 = 40 mL
(Since density of solution is = 1 g mL–1)
Molarity of solution
= Number of moles of solute
Volume of solution in litre
0.1 mole NaOH
= = 2.5M
0.04L
5. If we look at the given reaction we can identify that only two of the H + ions of H3AsO4 react
with NaOH to form the product. Therefore, the two ions are 2 equivalents. In order to find the
normality, we will apply the given formula.
N = Molarity (M) × number of equivalents
N = 1.0 × 2 (replacing the values)
Therefore, normality of the solution
= 2.0.
6. a. N = 0.1381 mol/L × (1 eq/1mol)
= 0.1381 eq/L = 0.1381 N
b. N = 0.0521 mol/L × (3 eq/1mol)
= 0.156 eq/L = 0.156 N

7. According to Normality equation

Na × Va = Nb × Vb
Na × (25.00 mL) = (0.1718N) (28.12 mL)
Therefore, the concentration of citric acid = 0.1932 N  0.20 N

8. According to Normality equation

N1V1 + N2V2 + N3V3 = NRVR
10 × 50 + 12 × 25 + 5 × 40 = NR × 1000
500 + 300 + 200 = NR × 1000
NR = 1
Hence, the normality of resulting solution is 1.
9. According to Normality equation
N1 V1 = N2 V2
N1 = Normality of H2
SO4 = 0.5 × 2 = 1 N
V1 = Volume of H2SO4
N2 = Normality of copper (II) carbonate

= = 0.5  2 N
123.5
V2 = Volume of copper (II) carbonate
= 1000 ml

So, 1.00  V1 = 0.5  2  1000

123.5
Therefore, V1 = 8.09 mL.
10. Normality = Molarity × n (Valency factor)
 N1V1 + N2V2 = N3(V1 + V2)

(0.2×100) + (0.2×2×500) = N3 (100 + 500)

20 + 200 = N3 × 600
220
N3 = = 0.366 N.
600
