Question 10

A student needs to prepare 250.0 mL of 0.100 M NaCl solution from a 1.00 M NaCl stock solution. What volume of stock solution is required?

Accepted Answer

$$M_1V_1 = M_2V_2$$ 
$$V_1$$ = \frac{M_2V_2}{$$M_1$$} = \frac{0.100 	imes 250.0}{1.00} = 25.0\ \mathrm{mL}$$

Question 11

Which of the following is a molecular compound?

Accepted Answer

CO$$_2$$

Question 12

Balance the following equation: 
$$\mathrm{C_2H_6} + \mathrm{O_2$} \rightarrow \mathrm{CO_2$} + \mathrm{H_2O}$$

Accepted Answer

$$2\ \mathrm{C_2H_6} + 7\ \mathrm{O_2$} \rightarrow 4\ \mathrm{CO_2$} + 6\ \mathrm{H_2O}$$

Question 13

How many molecules are present in 0.250 mol of water?

Accepted Answer

$$0.250 	imes 6.022 	imes 10$$^{23}$$ = 1.51 	imes 10$$^{23}$$ molecules

Question 14

A reaction requires 0.500 mol of H$$_2$$ and excess O$$_2. $$How many grams of H$$_2$$ are needed? (Molar mass H$$_2 = 2.02 g/$$mol)

Accepted Answer

$$0.500 	imes 2.02 = 1.01 g$$

A 5.00 g sample of a compound contains 2.00 g of nitrogen and 3.00 g of oxygen. What is the percent by mass of oxygen?

Accepted Answer

$$\frac{3.00}{5.00} 	imes 100 = 60.0\%$$

Question 16

Which of the following conversions is set up correctly to convert 25.0 inches to centimeters? (1 inch = 2.54 cm)

Accepted Answer

$$25.0\ \mathrm{in} 	imes \frac{2.54\ \mathrm{cm}}{1\ \mathrm{in}}$$
