Name some molecules containing more than four atoms. What are these called?
Molecules containing more than four atoms are called polyatomic molecules. Examples are : sulphur (S8), ethyl alcohol (C2H5OH), sugar (C12H22O11), a form of carbon called buckminsterfullerene (C60).
What is the mass of?
(a) 0.2 mole oxygen atoms.
(b) 0.5 mole of water molecules.
Calculate the number of molecules of sulphur (S8) present in 16 gm of solid sulphur.
Calculate the number of aluminium ions present in 0.56 gm of aluminium oxide.
Explain law of conservation of mass.
50 g of 10% lead nitrate is mixed with 50 g of 10% sodium chloride in a closed vessel. After the reaction has taken place, it was found that 6.83 g of lead chloride was precipitated. Besides, the reaction mixture contained 90 g water and sodium nitrate. Calculate the amount of sodium nitrate formed.
