ASSIGNMENT 1A

Question 1
(PO1, CO1)

If an automobile travels 225 miles with a gas mileage of 20.5 miles/gallon, determine the
kilograms of CO2 are produced. Assume that the gasoline is composed of octane, C8H18(l),
whose density is 0.69 g/mL. (1 gallon = 3.785 L)

Question 3
(PO1, CO2)

Determine whether each of the following sets of quantum numbers for the hydrogen atom
are valid. If a set is not valid, indicate which of the quantum numbers has a value that is not
valid:
a) n = 4, l = 1, ml = 2, ms = -1/2
b) n = 4, l = 3, ml = -3, ms = +1/2
c) n = 3, l = 2, ml = -1, ms = +1/2
d) n = 5, l = 0, ml = 0, ms = 0
e) n = 2, l = 2, ml = 1, ms = +1/2

Question 5
(PO1, CO2)

Smelting is a process to reduce metal oxides using carbon as reducing agent. In this
process, coke is mixed with roasted ore and heated at a high temperature in a furnace and
the coke reduces the metal oxides into free metal.
