2. NATURE OF MATTER:
a. Solid – Particles are held very close to each other in an orderly fashion and
not much freedom of movement. Have definite volume & definite shape.
b. Liquids – Particles close to each other & can move around. Definite volume
but not definite shape, take shape of container.
c. Gases – Particles are far apart as compared to those present in solid or liquid
states movement is easy & fast. Neither definite volume not definite shape, परू े
container को occupy कर लेता है l
heat heat
Solid Liquid Gas
cool cool
(ii)Chemical Properties:
a. Require chemical change to occur
b. Eg: acidity, basicity, combustibility (हवा में जलना) अब इसमें chemical reaction
होगा और components के state भी change हो सकते हैं l
Volume:
a. Has units of (length)3 – m3
b. In laboratory smaller volumes are used, hence often denoted in cm3 or dm3
4. UNCERTAINTY IN MEASUREMENT:
(i)Scientific Notation: 232.508 can be written as 2.32508 × 102
0.00016 can be written as 1.6 × 10-4
(ii)Multiplication & Division:
Eg: 5.6 × 105 × 6.9 × 108 = (5.6 × 6.9) (105+6)
= 38.64 × 1013
= 3.864 × 1014
∴ in multiplication powers add up
Eg: 2.7 × 10-3 / 5.5 × 104 = 2.7/5.5 × 10-3-4 = 0.4909 × 1013 = 3.864 × 1014
(iii)Addition & Subtraction: to add or subtract हमे 10 का power equal करना होगा eg:
(i) 6.65 × 104 and 8.95 × 103
To add 6.65 × 104 + 8.95 × 103 = (6.65 + 0.895) × 104 = 7.545 × 104
(ii) 2.5 × 10-2 – 4.8 × 10-3 = (2.5 – 0.48) × 10-2 = 2.02 × 10-2
For approximation
अगर c ≤ 5 रहा तो a को 10 मे l
→ b is also c/d order of magnitude
Eg: in 1.28 × 107 , 7 is order of magnitude
(v)Dimensional Analysis: To convert units from one system to another factor label
method or unit factor method or dimensional analysis is used.
अगर inch को cm मे करना हैं तो 2.54 cm/1 inch से 2.54/1 inch से multiply करदो
अगर inch को cm मे करना हैं तो 1 inch/2.54 cm से 2.54/1 inch से multiply करदो
1 m/100 cm = 1 = 100 cm/1m as 1L = 1000cm3
1 day/24 h = 1 = 24h/1day
a. One atomic mass unit is defined as a mass exactly equal to one – twelth
the mass of one carbon–12.
d. Today amu has been replaced by ‘u’ which is known as unified mass.
Molecular Mass:
Sum of atomic masses of the elements present in a molecule.
Molar Mass:
The mass of one mole of a substance in grams is called its molar mass.
(substance के एक mole का mass grams में )
9. PERCENTAGE COMPOSITION:
Mass % of an element = mass of that element in the compound × 100
Molar mass of the compound
Step 1 Write down the correct formulas of reactants and products. Here, propane
and oxygen are reactants, and carbon dioxide and water are products. C3H8 (g) + O2
(g) → CO2 (g) + H2O(l) unbalanced equation
Step 2 Balance the number of C atoms: Since 3 carbon atoms are in the reactant,
therefore, three CO2 molecules are required on the right side.
C3H8 (g) + O2 (g) → 3CO2 (g) + H2O (l)
Step 3 Balance the number of H atoms: on the left there are 8 hydrogen atoms in the
reactants however, each molecule of water has two hydrogen atoms, so four
molecules of water will be required for eight hydrogen atoms on the right side.
C3H8 (g) +O2 (g) → 3CO2 (g) + 4H2O (l)
Step 4 Balance the number of O atoms: There are 10 oxygen atoms on the right side
(3 × 2 = 6 in CO2 and 4 × 1= 4 in water). Therefore, five O2 molecules are needed to
supply the required 10 CO2 and 4 × 1= 4 in water). Therefore, five O2 molecules are
needed to supply the required 10 oxygen atoms.
C3H8 (g) +5O2 (g) → 3CO2 (g) + 4H2O (l)
Step 5 Verify that the number of atoms of each element is balanced in the final
equation. The equation shows three carbon atoms, eight hydrogen atoms, and 10
oxygen atoms on each side.
All equations that have correct formulas for all reactants and products can be
balanced. Always remember that subscripts in formulas of reactants and products
cannot be changed to balance an equation.
Problem 1.3 Calculate the amount of water (g) produced by the combustion of
16 g of methane.
Solution:
The balanced equation for the combustion of methane is :
CH4 (g) + 2O2 (g) → CO2 (g) + 2H2O (g)
(i)16 g of CH4 corresponds to one mole.
(ii) From the above equation, 1 mol of CH4 (g) gives 2 mol of H2O (g).
2 mol of water (H2O) = 2 × (2+16) = 2 × 18 = 36 g
1 mol H2O = 18 g H2O ⇒ 18 g H2O/1 mol H2O = 1
Hence, 2 mol H2O × 18 g H2O / 1mol H2O = 2 × 18 g H2O = 36 g H2O
Problem 1.4
How many moles of methane are required to produce 22g CO2 (g) after
combustion?
Solution
According to the chemical equation,
CH4 (g) + 2O2 (g) → CO2 (g) + 2H2O (g)
44g CO2 (g) is obtained from 16 g CH4 (g). [∴1 mol CO2 (g) is obtained from 1
mol of CH4 (g)]
Problem 1.5
50.0 kg of N2 (g) and 10.0 kg of H2 (g) are mixed to produce NH3 (g). Calculate
the amount of NH3 (g) formed. Identify the limiting reagent in the production of
NH3 in this situation.
Solution:-
A balanced equation for the above reaction is written as follows :
Calculation of moles :
N2(g) + 3H2 (g) ⇌ 2NH3 (g) moles of N2
= 17.86×102 mol
Number of moles of H2
But we have only 4.96×103 mol H2. Hence, dihydrogen is the limiting reagent in
this case. So, NH3 (g) would be formed only from that amount of available
dihydrogen i.e., 4.96 × 103 mol
Since 3 mol H2 (g) gives 2 mol NH3 (g)
4.96×103 mol H2 (g) × 2 mol NH3(g)/ 3 mol H2g
= 3.30×103 mol NH3(g)
3.30×103 mol NH3 (g) is obtained.
If they are to be converted to grams, it is done as follows :
1 mol NH3 (g) = 17.0 g NH3 (g)
3.30 × 103 × mol NH3 (g) × 17.0g NH3 (g)/ 1 mol NH3 (g)
= 3.30 × 103 × 17g NH3 (g)
= 56.1 × 103 g NH3
= 56.1 kg NH3
11. REACTIONS IN SOLUTIONS:
(i) Mass percent:
Problem 1.6
A solution is prepared by adding 2 g of a substance A to 18 g of water.
Calculate the mass per cent of the solute.
Eg: If we have 1 mol of NaOH and हमे 0.2M का solution बनाना है 1M NaOH मतलब 1
mol of NaOH, 1 litre solution में अब 0.2 M solution हमे 0.2 moles NaOH के चाहिए 1 litre
solution में 0.2 moles तो अब हमे 0.2 moles NaOH लेने होंगे और solution को 1 litre का
बनाना होगा l
1 mole is present in 1L or 100 ml
Then 0.2 mol is present in ? → = 1000ml/1mol × 2 mol = 200ml
Thus, 200 ml of 1 M NaOH are taken & enough water is added to dilute it to make it
1 litre.
इसी को हम और एक method से calculate कर सकते हैं l
Method calculate
M1V1 = M2V2
0.2 M × 1000ml = 1.0 M × V2
V2 = 0.2 M × 100 ml /1.0 M = 200 ml
Problem 1.7
Calculate the molarity of NaOH in the solution prepared by dissolving its 4 g in
enough water to form 250 mL of the solution.
Solution:-
Since molarity (M)
= no.of moles of solute/volume of solution in litres
= mass of NaOH/molar mass of NaOH/0.250L
= 4g/40g/0.250L = 0.1mol/0.250L
= 0.4 mol L-1
= 0.4 M
(iv) Molality (m): Defined as number of moles of solute present in 1kg of solvent.
Problem 1.8
The density of 3 M solution of NaCl is 1.25 g mL–1. Calculate the molality of
the solution.
Solution:-
M = 3 mol L-1
Mass of NaCl in 1 L solution = 3 × 58.5 = 175.5 g
Mass of 1L solution = 1000 × 1.25 = 1250 g (since density = 1.25 g mL–1)
Mass of water in solution = 1250 –75.5 = 1074.5 g
Molality = No. of moles of solute/Mass of solvent in kg
= 3 mol/1.0745 kg
= 2.79 m
Often in a chemistry laboratory, a solution of a desired concentration is
prepared by diluting a solution of known higher concentration. The solution of
higher concentration is also known as stock solution. Note that the molality of
a solution does not change with temperature since mass remains unaffected
with temperature.
