Long quiz #2. Midterm

Answer should be in 2 decimal places only (2 digits after the decimal point). Include in your solution the atomic mass of
each element. (ex: C-12.01, H – 1.01, O – 15.99) Box your final answer.
A.
1. What is the mass percent of Sr in SrS rounded to two decimal places? (2pts)
𝑚𝑎𝑠𝑠 𝑜𝑓 𝑆𝑟
%𝑆𝑟𝑆 = 𝑚𝑎𝑠𝑠 𝑜𝑓 𝑆𝑟𝑆 × 100

87.62𝑔
= (87.62+32.064)𝑔 × 100

= 73.21% 𝑆𝑟

2. What is the mass percent of Cl in KClO3 rounded to two decimal places?(2pts)

𝑚𝑎𝑠𝑠 𝑜𝑓 𝐶𝑙
%𝐾𝐶𝑙𝑂3 = 𝑚𝑎𝑠𝑠 𝑜𝑓 𝐾𝐶𝑙𝑂 × 100
3

35.453𝑔
= (39.102+35.453+(15.994×3))𝑔 × 100

= 28.93% Cl

3.How many grams are in 0.15 mol of lead(II) nitrate?(2pts)

0.15 𝑚𝑜𝑙 𝑃𝑏(𝑁𝑂3 )2 (207.19 + (14.0067 × 2) + (15.9994 × 3 × 2))𝑔𝑃𝑏(𝑁𝑂3 )2

×
1 1𝑚𝑜𝑙 𝑃𝑏(𝑁𝑂3 )2

= 50.00 𝑔 𝑃𝑏(𝑁𝑂3 )2

4. How many atoms are in 30. g of Al?(3pts)

30 𝑔 𝐴𝑙 1 𝑚𝑜𝑙 𝐴𝑙 6.0022 × 1023 𝑎𝑡𝑜𝑚𝑠 𝑜𝑓 𝐴𝑙

× ×
1 26.9815𝑔 𝐴𝑙 1 𝑚𝑜𝑙 𝐴𝑙

= 6.7 × 1023 𝑎𝑡𝑜𝑚𝑠 𝑜𝑓 𝐴𝑙

B.1.
1. A 5.00 g sample of a compound consists of only chlorine and phosphorus. If it has 1.13 g of phosphorus, how many g
of chlorine would be present? (3pts)

5.00 g – 1.14 g of phosphorus = 3.87 g of chlorine

2. Refer to the given above, find the empirical formula of the chlorine and phosphorus compound.

1 𝑚𝑜𝑙 𝑜𝑓 𝐶𝑙 𝑎𝑡𝑜𝑚𝑠
3.87 𝑔 𝑜𝑓 𝐶𝑙 × 35.45 𝑔𝑟𝑎𝑚𝑠
= 0.1092 mol of Cl atoms
mol of Cl atoms
3. Get the ratio.

0.1092 𝑚𝑜𝑙 𝑜𝑓 𝐶𝑙 𝑎𝑡𝑜𝑚𝑠

= 2.99 atom of Cl
0.0365 𝑚𝑜𝑙

4. The resulting Empirical formula : PCl3

B. 2.
1. Determine the empirical formula of the compound. (3pts)

a.
1 𝑚𝑜𝑙 𝑜𝑓 𝐵
1.59 𝑔 𝑜𝑓 𝐵 × 10.81 𝑔
= 0.1563 mol of B atoms

1 𝑚𝑜𝑙 𝑜𝑓 𝐹
8.41 𝑔 𝑜𝑓 𝐹 × = 0.4427 𝑚𝑜𝑙 𝑜𝑓 𝐶𝑙 𝑎𝑡𝑜𝑚𝑠
18.9984 𝑔
b.
0.1563 mol of B atoms
= 1 𝑎𝑡𝑜𝑚 𝑜𝑓 𝐵
0.1563 mol
0.4427 𝑚𝑜𝑙 𝑜𝑓 𝐶𝑙 𝑎𝑡𝑜𝑚𝑠
