Q 1. In a reaction, 5.3 g of sodium carbonate reacted with 6 g of acetic acid. The
products were 2.2 g of carbon dioxide, 0.9 g water and 8.2 g of sodium acetate. Show
that these observations are in agreement with the law of conservation of mass.
sodium carbonate + acetic acid → sodium acetate + carbon dioxide + water
Answer:
Given, the reaction
sodium carbonate + acetic acid → sodium acetate + carbon dioxide + water
5.3g 6g 8.2g 2.2g 0.9g
Now,
Total Mass on the Left Hand Side = 5.3g + 6g = 11.3g
Total Mass on the Right Hand Side = 8.2g + 2.2g + 0.9g = 11.3g
As Mass on the LHS is equal to RHS, the observation is in agreement with the law of
conservation of mass.
Q 2. Hydrogen and oxygen combine in the ratio of 1:8 by mass to form water. What
mass of oxygen gas would be required to react completely with 3 g of hydrogen gas?
Answer:
Given:
Hydrogen and oxygen combine in the ratio of 1:8 by mass to form water.

Now,
For every 1 g of Hydrogen, 8 g of oxygen is needed for the reaction to take place.
Therefore, for 3 g of Hydrogen, the mass of oxygen needed = 8 * 3 = 24 g.
Hence, 24 g of Oxygen is needed to complete a reaction with 3 g of Hydrogen.
Q 3. Which postulate of Dalton’s atomic theory is the result of the law of conservation of
mass?
Answer:
The postulate of Dalton’s atomic theory is the result of the law of conservation of mass
is
"Atoms can neither be created nor can be destroyed".
Q 4. Which postulate of Dalton’s atomic theory can explain the law of definite
proportions?
Answer:
The postulate of Dalton’s atomic theory can explain the law of definite proportions is
"The relative number and kinds of atoms are equal in given compounds."

Q 1. Define the atomic mass unit.
Answer:
An atomic mass unit is a unit of mass used to express the weight subatomic particles,
where one unit is equal to exactly one-twelfth the mass of a carbon-12 atom.
Q 2. Why is it not possible to see an atom with naked eyes?
Answer:
We can't see the atom with the naked eye because they are minuscule in nature. they
are measured in the nanometres. Also, except for noble gases, all-atom do not exist
independently.they exist in the form of any compound.

=24u+ 4u
= 28u.
The molecular mass of :
= Atomic mass of Nitrogen + 3 * Atomic mass of Hydrogen
= 14u+ 3 * 1u

Q 2. When 3.0 g of carbon is burnt in 8.00 g oxygen, 11.00 g of carbon dioxide is
produced. What mass of carbon dioxide will be formed when 3.00 g of carbon is burnt in
50.00 g of oxygen? Which law of chemical combination will govern your answer?
Answer:
3.0 g of carbon combines with 8.0 g of oxygen to give 11.0 of carbon dioxide.
So, by the law of definite proportions,
When 3.00 g of carbon is burnt in 50.00 g of oxygen, only 8.00 g of oxygen will be used
to produce 11.00 gram of carbon dioxide. The remaining 42.00 g of oxygen will remain
