Calculate the atomic mass(average) of chlorine using the following data:
%Natural Abundance | Molar mass | |
35Cl | 75·77 | 34·9689 |
37Cl | 24·23 | 36·9659 |
Calculate the amount of carbon dioxide that could be produced when
(i) 1 mole of carbon is burnt in air.
(ii) 1 mole of carbon is burnt in 16g of dioxygen.
(iii) 2 moles of carbon are burnt in 16g of dioxygen.
Calculate the mass percentage of different elements present in sodium sulphate (Na2SO4).
Molecular mass of sodium =23
Molecular mass of sulphur =32
Molecular mass of oxygen =16
