This book has been printed on 60 G. S. M paper Printed by Offset at : (ii) PREFACE Where has chemistry come from ? Throughout the history of the human race, people have struggled to make sense of the world around them. Through the branch of science we call chemistry we have gained an understanding of the matter which makes up our world and of the interactions between particles on which it depends. The ancient Greek philosophers had their own ideas of the nature of matter, proposing atoms as the smallest indivisible particles.
However, although these ideas seems to fit with modern models of matter, so many other Ancient Greek ideas were wrong that chemistry cannot truly be said to have started there. Alchemy was a mixture of scientific investigation and mystical quest, with strands of philosophy from Greece, China, Egypt and Arabia mixed in. The main aims of alchemy that emerged with time were the quest for the elixir of life (the drinking of which would endue the alchemist with immortality), and the search for the philosopher’s stone, which would turn base metals into gold.
Improbable as these ideas might seem today, the alchemists continued their quests for around 2000 years and achieved some remarkable successes, even if the elixir of life and the philosopher’s stone never appeared. Towards the end of the eighteenth century, pioneering work by Antoine and Marie Lavoisier and by John Dalton on the chemistry of air and the atomic nature of matter paved the way for modern chemistry. During the nineteenth century chemists worked steadily towards an understanding of the relationships between the different chemical elements and the way they react together.
A great body of work was built up from careful observation and experimentation until the relationship which we now represent as the periodic table emerged. This brought order to the chemical world, and from then on chemists have never looked back. Modern society looks to chemists to produce, amongst many things, healing drugs, pesticides and fertilisers to ensure better crops and chemicals for the many synthetic materials produced in the twenty-first century. It also looks for an academic understanding of how matter works and how the environment might be protected from the source of pollutants.
Fortunately, chemistry holds many of the answers ! (iii) Following the progressing trend in chemistry, it enters into other branches of chemistry and answers for all those miracles that are found in all living organisms. The present book is written after following the revised syllabus, keeping in view with the expectations of National Council of Educational Research & Training (NCERT). The questions that are given in each and every chapter can be taken only as model questions. A lot of self evaluation questions, like, choose the best answer, fill up the blanks and very short answer type questions are given in all chapters.
While preparing for the examination, students should not restrict themselves, only to the questions/problems given in the self evaluation. They must be prepared to answer the questions and problems from the entire text. Learning objectives may create an awareness to understand each and every chapter. Sufficient reference books are suggested so as to enable the students to acquire more informations about the concepts of chemistry. Dr. V.

Sodium chloride, NaCl, has a formula weight of 58. 44 amu (22. 99 amu from Na plus 35. 45 amu from Cl). NaCl is ionic, so strictly speaking the expression “molecular weight of NaCl” has no meaning. On the other hand, the molecular weight and the formula weight calculated from the molecular formula of a substance are identical. Solved Problem Calculate the formula weight of each of the following to three significant figures, using a table of atomic weight (AW): (a) chloroform CHCl3 (b) Iron (III) sulfate Fe2 (SO4)3. Solution a. 1 x AW of C = 12. 0 amu 1 x AW of H = 1. 0 amu 3 x AW of Cl = 3 x 35. 5 = 106. 4 amu Formula weight of CHCl3 = 119. 4 amu 1 The answer rounded to three significant figures is 119 amu. b. Iron(III)Sulfate 2 x Atomic weight of Fe = 2 x 55. 8 = 111. 6 amu 3 x Atomic weight of S = 3 x 32. 1 = 96. 3 amu = 399. 9 amu 3 x 4 Atomic weight of O =12×16= 192. 0 amu Formula weight of Fe2 (SO4)3 Problems for Practice Calculate the formula weights of the following compounds a. NO2 b. glucose (C6H12O6) f. PCl3 c. NaOH g. K2 CO3 d. Mg(OH)2 e. methanol (CH3 OH) The answer rounded to three significant figures is 4. 00 x 102 amu. 1. 2 Avogadro’s Number (NA)
The number of atoms in a 12-g sample of carbon – 12 is called Avogadro’s number (to which we give the symbol NA). Recent measurements of this number give the value 6. 0221367 x 1023, which is 6. 023 x 1023. A mole of a substance contains Avogadro’s number of molecules. A dozen eggs equals 12 eggs, a gross of pencils equals 144 pencils and a mole of ethanol equals 6. 023 x 1023 ethanol molecules. Significance The molecular mass of SO2 is 64 g mol-1. 64 g of SO2 contains 6. 023 x 1023 molecules of SO2. 2. 24 x 10-2m3 of SO2 at S. T. P. contains 6. 023 x 1023 molecules of SO2. Similarly the molecular mass of CO2 is 44 g mol-1. 4g of CO2 contains 6. 023 x 1023 molecules of CO2. 2. 24 x 10-2m3 of CO2 at S. T. P contains 6. 023 x 1023 molecules of CO2. 1. 3 Mole concept While carrying out reaction we are often interested in knowing the number of atoms and molecules. Some times, we have to take the atoms or molecules of different reactants in a definite ratio. 2 Eg. Consider the following reaction 2 H2 + O2 > 2H2O In this reaction one molecule of oxygen reacts with two molecules of hydrogen. So it would be desirable to take the molecules of H2 and oxygen in the ratio 2:1, so that the reactants are completely consumed during the reaction.
But atoms and molecules are so small in size that is not possible to count them individually. In order to overcome these difficulties, the concept of mole was introduced. According to this concept number of particles of the substance is related to the mass of the substance. Definition The mole may be defined as the amount of the substance that contains as many specified elementary particles as the number of atoms in 12g of carbon – 12 isotope. (i. e) one mole of an atom consists of Avogadro number of particles. One mole One mole of oxygen molecule One mole of oxygen atom One mole of ethanol = = = = 6. 23 x 1023 particles 6. 023 x 1023 oxygen molecules 6. 023 x 1023 oxygen atoms 6. 023 x 1023 ethanol molecules In using the term mole for ionic substances, we mean the number of formula units of the substance. For example, a mole of sodium carbonate, Na2CO3 is a quantity containing 6. 023 x 1023 Na2CO3 units. But each formula unit of Na2CO3 contains 2 x 6. 023 x 1023 Na+ ions and one CO32ions and 1 x 6. 023 x 1023 CO32- ions. When using the term mole, it is important to specify the formula of the unit to avoid any misunderstanding. Eg. A mole of oxygen atom (with the formula O) contains 6. 23 x 1023 Oxygen atoms. A mole of oxygen molecule (formula O2) contains 6. 023 x 1023 O2 molecules (i. e) 2 x 6. 023 x 1023 oxygen. Molar mass The molar mass of a substance is the mass of one mole of the substance. The mass and moles can be related by means of the formula. 3 Mass Molar mass = ____ mole Eg. Carbon has a molar mass of exactly 12g/mol. Problems Solved Problems 1. What is the mass in grams of a chlorine atom, Cl? 2. What is the mass in grams of a hydrogen chloride, HCl? Solution 1. The atomic weight of Cl is 35. 5 amu, so the molar mass of Cl is 35. 5 g/mol. Dividing 35. 5 g (per mole) by 6. 23 x 1023 gives the mass of one atom. 35. 5 g Mass of a Cl atom = __________ 6. 023 x 1023 = 5. 90 x 10-23 g 2. The molecular weight of HCl equal to the atomic weight of H, plus the atomic weight of Cl, (ie) (1. 01 + 35. 5) amu = 36. 5 amu. Therefore 1 mol of HCl contains 36. 5 g HCl 36. 5 g _________ Mass of an HCl molecule = 6. 02 x1023 = 6. 06×10-23g Problems For Practice 1. What is the mass in grams of a calcium atom, Ca? 2. What is mass in grams of an ethanol molecule, C2H5OH? 3. Calcualte the mass (in grams) of each of the following species. a. Na atom b. S atom c. CH3Cl molecule d.
Na2SO3 formula unit 1. 3. 1 Mole Calculations To find the mass of one mole of substance, there are two important things to know. 4 i. How much does a given number of moles of a substance weigh? ii. How many moles of a given formula unit does a given mass of substance contain. Both of them can be known by using dimensional analysis. To illustrate, consider the conversion of grams of ethanol, C2H5OH, to moles of ethanol. The molar mass of ethanol is 46. 1 g/mol, So, we write 1 mol C2H5OH = 46. 1 g of C2 H5OH Thus, the factor converting grams of ethanol to moles of ethanol is 1mol C2H5OH/46. 1g C2H5OH.
To covert moles of ethanol to grams of ethanol, we simply convert the conversion factor (46. 1 g C2H5OH/1 mol C2H5OH). Again, suppose you are going to prepare acetic acid from 10. 0g of ethanol, C2H5OH. How many moles of C2H5OH is this? you convert 10. 0g C2H5OH to moles C2H5OH by multiplying by the appropriate conversion factor. 1 mol C2H5OH 10. 0g C H OH x _____________ 2 5 46. 1 g C2H5OH = 0. 217 mol C2H5 OH 1. 3. 2 Converting Moles of Substances to Grams Solved Problems 1. ZnI2, can be prepared by the direct combination of elements. A chemist determines from the amounts of elements that 0. 654 mol ZnI2 can be formed. Solution The molar mass of ZnI2 is 319 g/mol. (The formula weight is 319 amu, which is obtained by summing the atomic weight in the formula) Thus 319 g ZnI2 0. 0654 mol ZnI x __________ 2 1 mol ZnI2 = 20. 9 gm ZnI2 5 Problems for Practice 1.

Converting Grams of Substances to Moles In the preparation of lead(II)chromate PbCrO4, 45. 6 g of lead(II)chromate is obtained as a precipitate. How many moles of PbCrO4 is this? The molar mass of PbCrO4 is 323 g/mol (i. e) 1 mol PbCrO4 = 323 g PbCrO4 Therefore, 45. g PbCrO4 x 1 mol. PbCrO4 ___________________________ 323 g PbCrO4 = 0. 141 mol PbCrO4 Problems for Practice 1. Nitric acid, HNO3 is a colourless, corrosive liquid used in the manufacture of Nitrogen fertilizers and explosives.

Calculation of the Number of Molecules in a Given Mass Solved Problem How many molecules are there in a 3. 46 g sample of hydrogen chloride, HCl? Note: The number of molecules in a sample is related to moles of compound (1 mol HCl = 6. 023 x 1023 HCl molecules). Therefore if you first convert grams HCl to moles, then you can convert moles to number of molecules). Solution 3. 46g HClx 1 mol HCl 36. 5g HCl x 6. 023 x 10 23 HClmolecul es 1 mol HCl = 5. 71 x 1022 HCl molecules Problems for Practice 1. How many molecules are there in 56mg HCN? 2. a. b. c. Calculate the following Number of molecules in 43g NH3 Number of atoms in 32. g Br2 Number of atoms in 7. 46 g Li 1. 4 Calculation of Empirical Formula from Quantitative Analysis and Percentage composition Empirical Formula “An empirical formula (or) simplest formula for a compound is the formula of a substance written with the smallest integer subscripts”. For most ionic substances, the empirical formula is the formula of the compound. This is often not the case for molecular substances. For example, the formula of sodium peroxide, an ionic compound of Na+ and O22-, is Na2O2. Its empirical formula is NaO. Thus empirical formula tells you the ratio of numbers of atoms in the compound.
Steps for writing the Empirical formula The percentage of the elements in the compound is determined by 7 suitable methods and from the data collected, the empirical formula is determined by the following steps. i. Divide the percentage of each element by its atomic mass. This will give the relative number of moles of various elements present in the compound. ii. Divide the quotients obtained in the above step by the smallest of them so as to get a simple ratio of moles of various elements. iii. Multiply the figures, so obtained by a suitable integer of necessary in order to obtain whole number ratio. v. Finally write down the symbols of the various elements side by side and put the above numbers as the subscripts to the lower right hand of each symbol. This will represent the empirical formula of the compound. Solved Problem A compound has the following composition Mg = 9. 76%,S = 13. 01%, 0 = 26. 01, H2O = 51. 22, what is its empirical formula?

Example The molecular formula of acetylene, C2H2 is equivalent to (CH)2, and the molecular formula of benzene, C6H6 is equivalent to (CH)6. Therefore, the molecular weight is some multiple of the empirical formula weight, which is obtained by summing the atomic Weights from the empirical formula. For any molecular compound. Molecular Weight = n x empirical formula weight. Where `n’ is the whole number of empirical formula units in the molecule.
The molecular formula can be obtained by multiplying the subscripts of the empirical formula by `n’ which can be calculated by the following equation Molecular Weight _____________________ n = Empirical formula Weight Steps for writing the molecular formula i. Calculate the empirical formula ii. Find out the empirical formula mass by adding the atomic mass of all the atoms present in the empirical formula of the compound. iii.

Stoichiometry Stoichiometry is the calculation of the quantities of reactants and products involved in the chemical reaction. It is the study of the relationship between the number of mole of the reactants and products of a chemical reaction. A stoichiometric equation is a short scientific representation of a chemical reaction. Rules for writing stoichiometric equations i. In order to write the stoichiometric equation correctly, we must know the reacting substances, all the products formed and their chemical formula. ii. The formulae of the reactant must be written on the left side of 12 rrow with a positive sign between them. iii. The formulae of the products formed are written on the right side of the arrow mark. If there is more than one product, a positive sign is placed between them. The equation thus obtained is called skeleton equation. For example, the Chemical reaction between Barium chloride and sodium sulphate producing BaSO4 and NaCl is represented by the equation as BaCl2 + Na2SO4 > BaSO4 + NaCl This skeleton equation itself is a balanced one. But in many cases the skeleton equation is not a balanced one. For example, the decomposition of Lead Nitrate giving Lead oxide, NO2 and oxygen.
The skeletal equation for this reaction is Pb(NO3)2 > PbO + NO2 + O2 iv. In the skeleton equation, the numbers and kinds of particles present on both sides of the arrow are not equal. v. During balancing the equation, the formulae of substances should not be altered, but the number of molecules with it only be suitably changed. vi. Important conditions such as temperature, pressure, catalyst etc. , may be noted above (or) below the arrow of the equation. vii. An upward arrow (^) is placed on the right side of the formula of a gaseous product and a downward arrow (v) on the right side of the formulae of a precipitated product. viii.
All the reactants and products should be written as molecules including the elements like hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, fluorine chlorine, bromine and iodine as H2, O2, N2, F2, Cl2, Br2 and I2. 1. 5. 1 Balancing chemical equation in its molecular form A chemical equation is called balanced equation only when the numbers and kinds of molecules present on both sides are equal. The several steps involved in balancing chemical equation are discussed below. Example 1 Hydrogen combines with bromine giving HBr 13 H2 + Br2 > HBr This is the skeletal equation. The number of atoms of hydrogen on the left side is two but on the right side it is one.
So the number of molecules of HBr is to be multiplied by two. Then the equation becomes H2 + Br2 > Example 2 Potassium permanganate reacts with HCl to give KCl and other products. The skeletal equation is KMnO4 + HCl > KCl + MnCl2 + H2O + Cl2 If an element is present only one substance in the left hand side of the equation and if the same element is present only one of the substances in the right side, it may be taken up first while balancing the equation. According to the above rule, the balancing of the equation may be started with respect to K, Mn, O (or) H but not with Cl. There are L. H. S. R. H.
S K=1 Mn = 1 O =4 1 1 1 2HBr This is the balanced (or) stoichiometric equation. So the equation becomes KMnO4 + HCl > KCl + MnCl2 + 4H2O + Cl2 Now there are eight hydrogen atoms on the right side of the equation, we must write 8 HCl. KMnO4 + 8HCl > KCl + MnCl2 + 4H2O + Cl2 Of the eight chlorine atoms on the left, one is disposed of in KCl and two in MnCl2 leaving five free chlorine atoms. Therefore, the above equation becomes KMnO4+8HCl > KCl+MnCl2+4H2O+5/2 Cl2 Equations are written with whole number coefficient and so the 14 equation is multiplied through out by 2 to become 2KMnO4+16 HCl>2KCl+2 MnCl2+8H2O+5Cl2 1. 5. Redox reactions [Reduction – oxidation] In our daily life we come across process like fading of the colour of the clothes, burning of the combustible substances such as cooking gas, wood, coal, rusting of iron articles, etc. All such processes fall in the category of specific type of chemical reactions called reduction – oxidation (or) redox reactions. A large number of industrial processes like, electroplating, extraction of metals like aluminium and sodium, manufactures of caustic soda, etc. , are also based upon the redox reactions. Redox reactions also form the basis of electrochemical and electrolytic cells.
According to the classical concept, oxidation and reduction may be defined as, Oxidation is a process of addition of oxygen (or) removal of hydrogen Reduction is a process of removal of oxygen (or) addition of hydrogen. Example Reaction of Cl2 and H2S Oxidation H2S + Cl2 > Reduction In the above reaction, hydrogen is being removed from hydrogen sulphide (H2S) and is being added to chlorine (Cl2). Thus, H2S is oxidised and Cl2 is reduced. Electronic concept of oxidation and Reduction According to electronic concept, oxidation is a process in which an atom taking part in chemical reaction loses one or more electrons.
The loss of electrons results in the increase of positive charge (or) decrease of negative of the species. For example. Fe2+> Fe3+ + e- [Increase of positive charge] Cu> Cu2+ + 2e- [Increse of positive charge] 15 2HCl + S The species which undergo the loss of electrons during the reactions are called reducing agents or reductants. Fe2+ and Cu are reducing agents in the above example. Reduction Reduction is a process in which an atom (or) a group of atoms taking part in chemical reaction gains one (or) more electrons. The gain of electrons result in the decrease of positive charge (or) increase of negative charge of the species.
For example, Fe3+ + e- >Fe2+ [Decrease of positive charges] Zn2+ + 2e- > Zn [Decrease of positive charges] The species which undergo gain of electrons during the reactions are called oxidising agents (or) oxidants. In the above reaction, Fe3+ and Zn2+ are oxidising agents. Oxidation Number (or) Oxidation State Oxidation number of the element is defined as the residual charge which its atom has (or) appears to have when all other atoms from the molecule are removed as ions. Atoms can have positive, zero or negative values of oxidation numbers depending upon their state of combination.
General Rules for assigning Oxidation Number to an atom The following rules are employed for determining oxidation number of the atoms. 1. The oxidation number of the element in the free (or) elementary state is always Zero. Oxidation number of Helium in He = 0 Oxidation number of chlorine in Cl2 = 0 2. The oxidation number of the element in monoatomic ion is equal to the charge on the ion. 3. The oxidaton number of fluorine is always – 1 in all its compounds. 4. Hydrogen is assigned oxidation number +1 in all its compounds except in metal hydrides. In metal hydrides like NaH, MgH2, CaH2, LiH, 16 etc. , the oxidation number of hydrogen is -1. . Oxygen is assigned oxidation number -2 in most of its compounds, however in peroxides like H2O2, BaO2, Na2O2, etc its oxidation number is 1. Similarly the exception also occurs in compounds of Fluorine and oxygen like OF2 and O2F2 in which the oxidation number of oxygen is +2 and +1 respectively. 6. The oxidation numbers of all the atoms in neutral molecule is Zero. In case of polyatomic ion the sum of oxidation numbers of all its atoms is equal to the charge on the ion. 7. In binary compounds of metal and non-metal the metal atom has positive oxidation number while the non-metal atom has negative oxidation number.
Example. Oxidation number of K in KI is +1 but oxidation number of I is – I. 8. In binary compounds of non-metals, the more electronegative atom has negative oxidation number, but less electronegative atom has positive oxidation number. Example : Oxidation number of Cl in ClF3 is positive (+3) while that in ICl is negative (-1). Problem Calculate the oxidation number of underlined elements in the following species. CO2, Cr2O72-, Pb3O4, PO43Solution 1. C in CO2. Let oxidation number of C be x. Oxidation number of each O atom = -2. Sum of oxidation number of all atoms = x+2 (-2) ? x – 4.
As it is neutral molecule, the sum must be equal to zero. ? x-4 = 0 (or) x = + 4 2. Cr in Cr2O72-. Let oxidation number of Cr = x. Oxidation number of each oxygen atom =-2. Sum of oxidation number of all atoms 2x + 7(-2) = 2x – 14 Sum of oxidation number must be equal to the charge on the ion. Thus, 2x – 14 = -2 17 2x = +12 x x = 12/2 = 6 Problems for Practice Calculate the oxidation number of underlined elements in the following species. a. MnSO4 Oxidation “A chemical process in which oxidation number of the element increases”. Reduction “A chemical process in which oxidation number of the element decreases”. Eg.
Reaction between H2S and Br2 to give HBr and Sulphur. Decrease of Oxidation Number (Br) +1 -2 H2S 0 Br2 > +1 -1 2HBr 0 S b. S2O3 c. HNO3 d. K2MnO4 e. NH4+ Oxidation and Reduction in Terms of Oxidation Number + + Increase of oxidation Number (S) In the above reaction, the oxidation number of bromine decreases from 0 to -1, thus it is reduced. The oxidation number of S increases from -2 to 0. Hence H2S is oxidised. Under the concept of oxidation number, oxidising and reducing agent can be defined as follows. i. Oxidising agent is a substance which undergoes decrease in the oxidation number of one of its elements. 18 ii.
Reducing agent is a substance which undergoes increase in the oxidation number of one of its elements. In the above reaction H2S is reducing agent while Br2 is oxidising agent. Solved Problem Identify the oxidising agent, reducing agent, substance oxidised and substance reduced in the following reactions. MnO2 + 4HCl > MnCl2 + Cl2 + 2H2O Solution Increase of Oxidation Number +4 MnO2 + -1 4HCl > +2 MnCl2 + 0 Cl2 +1 -2 + 2H2 O Decrease of oxidation Number As it is clear, manganese decrease its oxidation number from +4 to +2. Hence, MnO2 gets reduced and it is an oxidising agent. Chlorine atom in HCl increases its oxidation number from -1 to 0.
Thus, HCl gets oxidised and it is reducing agent. Balancing Redox reaction by Oxidation Number Method The various steps involved in the balancing of redox equations according to this method are : 1. Write skeleton equation and indicate oxidation number of each element and thus identify the elements undergoing change in oxidation number. 2. Determine the increase and decrease of oxidation number per atom. Multiply the increase (or) decrease of oxidation number of atoms undergoing the change. 3. Equalise the increase in oxidation number and decrease in oxidation number on the reactant side by multiplying the respective formulae with 19 uitable integers. 4. Balance the equation with respect to all atoms other than O and H atoms. 5. Balance oxygen by adding equal number of water molecules to the side falling short of oxygen atoms. 6. H atoms are balanced depending upon the medium in same way as followed in ion electron method. Let us balance the following equations by oxidation number method. MnO2 + ClStep 1 MnO2 + Cl- > Mn2+ + Cl2 + H2O Step 2 O. N. Decreases by 2 per Mn 2+ > Mn + Cl2 + H2O in acidic medium 4+ + MnO2 -1 Cl +2 Mn + Cl2 + H2O O. N. increases by 1 per Cl Step 3 Equalise the increase / decrease in O.
N by multiply MnO2 by 1 and Cl-1 by 2. MnO2 + 2 Cl- >Mn2+ + Cl2 + H2O Step 4 Balance other atoms except H and O. Here they are all balanced. Step 5 Balance O atoms by adding H2O molecules to the side falling short of oxygen atoms. MnO2 + 2Cl- > Mn2+ + Cl2 + H2O + H2O 20 Step 6 Balance H atoms by adding H+ ions to the side falling short of H atoms MnO2 + 2Cl- + 4H+ > Mn2+ + Cl2 + 2H2O Problems for practice Balance the following equations 1. Mg + NO3- > Mg2+ + N2O + H2O (in acidic medium) 3+ 2. Cr + Na2O2 > CrO4- + Na+ 3. S2- + NO3- > NO + S 4. FeS + O2 > Fe2O3 + SO2 (molecular form) 5. Cl2 + OH- > Cl- + ClO3- + H2O . 6 Calculations based on chemical equations Stoichiometric problems are solved readily with reference to the equation describing the chemical change. From a stoichiometric chemical equation, we know how many molecules of reactant react and how many molecules of products are formed. When the molecular mass of the substances are inserted, the equation indicates how many parts by mass of reactants react to produce how many parts by mass of products. The parts by mass are usually in kg. So it is possible to calculate desired mass of the product for a known mass of the reactant or vice versa. . 6. 1 Mass / Mass Relationship Example 1 Calculate the mass of CO2 that would be obtained by completely dissolving 10kg of pure CaCO3 in HCl. CaCO3 + 2 HCl > CaCl2 + H2O + CO2 100 kg x 10-3 44 kg x 10-3 100 kg of CaCO3 produces 44 x 10-3 kg of CO2 44 x 10-3 21 10 kg of CaCO3 produces = ________ x 10 100 x 10-3 = 4. 4 kg of CO2 Example 2 Calculate the mass of oxygen obtained by complete decomposition of 10kg of pure potassium chlorate (Atomic mass K=39, O=16 and Cl = 35. 5) 2KClO3 > 2 KCl + 3O2 Molecular mass of KClO3 = 39+35. 5+48=122. 5 Molecular Mass of O2 = 16 + 16 = 32.
According to the Stoichiometric equation written above (2 x 122. 5) x 10 kg of KClO3 on heating gives (3 x 32) x 10-3 kg of oxygen. -3 10kg of KClO3 gives = 2 x 122. 5 x 10-3 3 x 32 x 10-3 ____________ x 10 = 3. 92 kg of O2 Example 3 Calculate the mass of lime that can be prepared by heating 200 kg of limestone that is 90% pure CaCO3 CaCO3 > CaO + CO2 100 kg x 10-3 56 kg x 10-3 90 200 kg of 90% pure CaCO = 200 x ___ 3 100 = 180 kg pure CaCO3 100×10-3 kg of pure CaCO3 on heating gives 56 x 10-3 kg of Ca0 56 x 10-3 x 180 ____________ 180 kg of CaCO = 3 gives on heating = 100 x 10-3 100. 8 kg CaO 1. Methods of Expressing the concentration of solution 22 The concentration of a solution refers to the amount of solute present in the given quantity of solution or solvent. The concentration of a solution may be expressed quantitatively in any of the following ways. 1. Strength The Strength of a solution is defined as the amount of the solute in grams, present in one litre of the solution. It is expressed in g L-1. Strength Mass of solute in grams = _______________________ Volume of solution in litres X x 1000 = _______ V If X gram of solute is present in V cm3 of a given solution then Strength 2.
Molarity (M) Molarity of a solution is defined as the number of gram-moles of solute dissolved in 1 litre of a solution Molarity No. of moles of solute = ______________________ Volume of Solution in litres X __________ x = Mol. mass 1000 _____ V If `X’ grams of the solute is present in V cm3 of a given solution, then, Molarity Molarity is represented by the symbol M. Molarity can also be calculated from the strength as follows Molarity Strength in grams per litre _______________________ = Molecular mass of the solute 23 Example A 0. 1M solution of Sugar, C12H22O11 (mol. mass = 342), means that 34. g of sugar is present in one litre (1000 cm3) of the solution. 3. Normality Normality of a solution is defined as the number of gram equivalents of the solute dissolved per litre of the given solution. Number of gram-equivalents of solute Normality = ______________________________ Volume of Solution in litre If X grams of the solute is present in V cm3 of a given solution, then, Normality = X ________ x Eq. mass 1000 mL _______ V Normality is represented by the symbol N. Normality can also be calculated from strength as follows Strength in grams per litre ______________________ Normality = Eq. ass of the solute Example A 0. 1N (or decinormal) solution of H2SO4 (Eq. mass = 49), means that 4. 9 g of H2SO4 is present in one litre (1000 cm3) of the solution. 4. Molality (m) Molality of a solution is defined as the number of gram-moles of solute dissolved in 1000 grams (or 1 kg) of a Solvent. Mathematically, Molality Number of moles of solute = _______________________ Mass of solvent in kilograms “If X grams of the solute is dissolved in b grams of the solvent”, then 24 Molality X 1000g ________ x _____ = Mol. mass bg Molality is represented by the symbol ‘m’. Example A 0. 1m Solution of glucose C6H12O6 (Mol. ass = 180), means that 18g of glucose is present in 1000g (or one kilogram) of water. 5. Mole Fraction Mole fraction is the ratio of number of moles of one component (Solute or Solvent) to the total number of moles of all the components (Solute and Solvent) present in the Solution. It is denoted by X. Let us suppose that a solution contains 2 components A&B and suppose that nA moles of A and nB moles of B are present in the solution. Then, nA Mole fraction of A, XA = _______ nA + nB ….. (1) nB ________ …… (2) Mole fraction of B, XB = nA + nB Adding 1 & 2 we get, nA XA + XB = nA+nB + nA+nB nB = nA+nB nA+nB
Thus, sum of the two mole fractions is one. Therefore, if mole fraction of one component in a binary solution is known, that of the other can be calculated.

Suppose substance A in solution reacts with substance B. If you know the volume and concentration of a solution of B that just reacts with substance A in a sample, you can determine the amount of A.
Titration is a procedure for determining the amount of substance A by adding a carefully measured volume of a solution of A with known concentration of B untill the reaction of A and B is just completed. Volumetric analysis is a method of analysis based on titrations. Law “Equal volume of equinormal solutions exactly neutralise the other solution having same concentration and volume”.

Equivalent masses can be determined by the following methods: Hydrogen displacement method This method is used to determine the equivalent mass of those metals such as magnesium, zinc and aluminium which react with dilute acids and readily displace hydrogen. Mg + 2HCl Zn + H2SO4 2Al + 6HCl MgCl2 + H2 ZnSO4 + H2 2AlCl3 + 3H2 From the mass of the metal and the volume of hydrogen displaced, the equivalent mass of the metal can be calculated. Problem 1 0. 548 g of the metal reacts with dilute acid and liberates 0. 0198 g of hydrogen at S. T. P. Calculate the equivalent mass of the metal. . 548 g of the metal displaces 0. 0198 g of hydrogen 30 The mass of the metal which will displace 1. 008 g of hydrogen = 1. 008 x 0. 548 ___________ g of metal 0. 0198 The equivalent mass of the metal = 27. 90 g equiv-1 Oxide Method This method is employed to determine the equivalent mass of those elements which readily form their oxides eg. magnesium, copper etc. Oxide of an element can be formed by direct method or by indirect method. Magnesium forms its oxide directly on heating 2Mg + O2 > 2 MgO In the case of copper, its oxide is obtained in an indirect manner i. e. copper s dissolved in concentrated nitric acid and the copper(II) nitrate formed after evaporation is strongly heated to give copper (II) oxide. Cu + 4HNO3 > Cu(NO3)2 + 2H2O + 2 NO2 2Cu(NO3)2 > 2CuO + 4 NO2 + O2 Calculations Mass of the element taken Mass of oxygen = w1 g = (w2-w1) g Mass of the oxide of the element = w2 g (w2 – w1) g of oxygen has combined with w1 g of the metal. w1 ______ x 8 ? 8 g of oxygen will combine with w2 – w1 This value represents the equivalent mass of the metal. Problem 2 0. 635 g of a metal gives on oxidation 0. 795g g of its oxide. Calculate the equivalent mass of the metal. 31 Mass of the metal oxide = 0. 95g Mass of the metal = 0. 635g Mass of oxygen = 0. 795 – 0. 635 = 0. 16g 0. 16 g of oxygen has combined with 0. 635 g of a metal ? 8 g of oxygen will combine with 8 x 0. 635 ???? = 31. 75 of the metal 0. 16 Equivalent mass of the metal = 31. 75g equiv-1 Chloride Method The equivalent mass of those elements which readily form their chlorides can be determined by chloride method. For example, a known mass of pure silver is dissolved completely in dilute nitric acid. The resulting silver nitrate solution is treated with pure hydrochloric acid when silver chloride is precipitated. It is then filtered, dried and weighed.
Thus from the masses of the metal and its chloride, the equivalent mass of the metal can be determined as follows : Calculations Mass of the metal = w1 g Mass of the metal chloride = w2 g Mass of chlorine = (w2 – w2) g (w2 – w1) g of chlorine has combined with w1 of the metal 35. 46 g of chlorine will combine with 35. 46 x w1 _________ g of the metal (w2 – w1) This value gives the equivalent mass of the metal. Uses of volumetric laws If the volume of the acid is represented as V1, the normality of the acid as N1, volume of base as V2 the normality of the base as N2, then from the law of volumetric analysis it follows that V1 x N1 = V2 x N2 32
All volumetric estimations are based on the above relationship. If any three quantities are known, the fourth one can readily be calculated using the above expression. 1. 8. 3 Equivalent mass of acid, base, salt, oxidising agent and reducing agent Acids contain one or more replaceble hydrogen atoms. The number of replaceble hydrogen atoms present in a molecule of the acid is referred to its basicity. Equivalent mass of an acid is the number of parts by mass of the acid which contains 1. 008 part by mass of replaceble hydrogen atom. Equivalent= mass of an acid molar mass of the acid __________________________ No. f replaceble hydrogen atom (or) = molar mass of the acid ___________________ basicity of the acid For example, the basicity of sulphuric acid is 2. Equivalent mass of H2SO4 Molar mass of H2SO4 = ????????? 2 98 = ___ = 49 2 2. Equivalent mass of the base Equivalent mass of a base is the number of parts by mass of the base which contains one replaceable hydroxyl ion or which completely neutralises one gram equivalent of an acid. The number of hydroxyl ions present in one mole of a base is known as the acidity of the base. Sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, ammonium hydroxide are examples of monoacidic bases.
Calcium hydroxide is a diacidic base 33 In general, molar mass of the base __________________ equivalent mass of a base = acidity of the base Equivalent mass of KOH = 56 /1 = 56 3. Equivalent mass of a salt Equivalent mass of a salt is a number of parts by mass of the salt that is produced by the neutralisation of one equivalent of an acid by a base. In the case of salt like potassium chloride, the salt formed by the neutralisation of one equivalent of an acid by a base. KOH + HCl > KCl + H2O Therefore, the equivalent mass of the salt is equal to its molar mass. 4.
Equivalent mass of an oxidising agent The equivalent mass of an oxidising agent is the number of parts by mass which can furnish 8 parts by mass of oxygen for oxidation either directly or indirectly. For example, potassium permanganate is an oxidising agent.

Determination of Molecular Mass Victor-Meyer’s Method Principle In this method a known mass of a volatile liquid or solid is converted into its vapour by heating in a Victor-Meyer’s tube. The vapour displaces its own volume of air. The volume of air displaced by the vapour is measured at the experimental temperature and pressure. The volume of the vapour at s. t. p is then calculated. From this the mass of 2. 24 x 10-2m3 of the vapour at S. T. P. is calculated. This value represents the molecular mass of the substance. 35 1. Sample tube 2. Liquid of boiling point higher than that of the volatile substance 3. Victor-Meyer tube 4.
Outer jacket Figure 1. 1 Determination of molecular mass by victor-Meyers method The apparatus consists of an inner Victor-Meyer tube, the lower end of which is in the form of a bulb. The upper end of the tube has a side tube which leads to a trough of water. The Victor-Meyer tube is surrounded by an outer jacket. In the outer jacket is placed a liquid which boils at a temperature at least 30 K higher than the boiling point of the volatile substance under study. A small quantity of glass wool or asbestos fiber covers the bottom of the Victor-Meyer tube to prevent breakage when the bottle containing the substance is dropped in.
Procedure The liquid in the outer jacket is allowed to boil and when no more air escapes from the side tube, a graduated tube filled with water is inverted over the side tube dipping in a trough full of water. A small quantity of the substance is exactly weighed in a small stoppered bottle and quickly dropped in the heated Victor-Meyer tube and corked immediately. The bottle falls on the asbestos pad and its content suddenly changes into vapour, blow out the stopper and displace an equal volume of air which collects in the graduated tube.
The volume of air in the graduated tube is measured by taking it out by closing its mouth with the thumb and dipping 36 it in a jar full of water. When the water levels outside and inside the tube are the same, the volume of air displaced is noted. The atmospheric pressure and laboratory temperature are noted. Calculations Mass of the volatile substance = Volume of air displaced Laboratory temperature wg = Volume of vapour = V1 m3 = T1 K Let the atomospheric pressure be P Pressure of dry vapour = Atomospheric pressure – aqueous tension at.
