Answer the following Questions:
Q:1 Nacl has 58.5 amu as formula mass not the molecular mass justify it?
Ans: The Reason is an ionic compound does not exist in molecular form that is why
the sum of masses of individual ions makes up the formula mass when it is
expressed in grams it is known as gram formula. it is also known as gram mole or
simply mole.
Q:2 Differentiate between atom and ion?
Ans:
Atom Ion
1.It is the smallest particle of an element It is the smallest particle of an ionic
compound.
2. It is electrically neutral. It carries charge in gaseous state only.

3. It can or cannot exist independently. It cannot exist independently

4. It can take part in chemical reaction. It also undergoes a chemical reaction.

Q:3 Differentiate between Molecular ion and Free Radical?

Ans:
Molecular Ion
1. Molecular ions are formed by the
combination of elemental ions such as
H+ with neutral molecule.
2. It is formed by gain or loss of electron
by a molecule.
3.It is formed by the ionization of
molecules.
4. In molecular ion the protons and
electrons are not equal.
e.g CO+, N2+ ,O2+, CH4+
Free Radical
A free radical is an atom , which has an
un paired electron and bears no electrical
charge.
A free radical is a reactive specie which
does not exist independently.
When substance like halogens are
exposed to sunlight ,their molecules split
up into free radicals.
Free radicals are formed by the
hemolytic fission (equal breakage ) of
the bond between two atoms.
e.g Hº ,Cl°, Iº, CH3º
Q:4 Decribe how Avogadro’s number related the Mole of any substance?
Ans: Relation of Avogadro’s number to mole:
One mole of a substance = 6.022×1023atoms/molecules.
Number of moles of a substance = Number of molecules of a
substance/6.022×1023
Example:
One mole of hydrogen atoms = 6.022×1023atoms of hydrogen = 2amu
One mole of hydrogen molecules = 6.022×1023molecules (H2) =2amu
23
One mole of water=6.022×10 molecules of water= 18amu
Q:5 Calculate the total number of atoms in 1.0g of water?
Ans: Given mass of water= 1.0g
23
Molar mass of water= 18g=6.022×10 molecules
Number of atoms= No of moles ×NA
23
=1/18×6.022×10
23
Total no of atoms= 1/18×3×6.022×10
23
=1.0033×10
