1. Write the number of significant figures in the given numbers:
i) 12600 ii) 500.0
2. Is it correct to regard the law of conservation of mass as the law of indestructibility of
matter? Why?
3. Why do compounds and not mixtures obey law of constant composition?
4. Why the energy of an electron taken as negative?
5. The general formula of a carbohydrate is Cx(H2O)y. 3.1 g of the carbohydrate on heating
in the absence of oxygen yields 1.24 g of carbon. The molecular mass of the
carbohydrate is 180. Calculate the molecular formula.
6. 50 cm3 of 0.2 M HCl is titrated against 0.1 M NaOH solution. The titration is after
adding 50 cm3 of NaOH. The remaining titration is completed by adding 0.5 M KOH.
What is the volume of KOH required for completing the titration?
7. Calculate the concentration of nitric acid in moles per litre in a sample which has a
density 1.41 g/ml and the mass percent of nitric acid in it being 69%.
8. 1 g of a mixture of calcium carbonate and magnesium carbonate gave on ignition 240 ml
of CO2 at STP. What is the percentage composition of the mixture?
9. Write short note on:
a) Black body radiations
b) Planck’s Quantum Theory
c) Atomic Spectra
10. When a photon of frequency 1 X 1015s-1 was allowed to hit a metal surface, an
electron having 1.988 X 1019J of kinetic energy is emitted out. Calculate the
threshold frequency of the metal. Show that an electron will not be emitted if a
photon with frequency 600 nm hits the metal surface.
11. Calculate the kinetic energy of a moving electron which has a wavelength of 4.8 pm.
12. 3 g of H2 react with 29 g of O2 to form H2O.
a) Which is the limiting reactant?

c) Calculate the amount of reactant left unreacted.
13. In order to find the strength of a sample of sulphuric acid, 10 g were diluted with
water and a piece of marble weighing 7 g was placed in it. When all the action has
ceased, the marble was removed, washed, dried and found to weigh 2.2 g. What was
the percentage of sulphuric acid?
14. Calculate the energy and frequency of the radiation emitted when an electron jumps
from n = 3 to n = 2 in a hydrogen atom.
15. a) From 220 mg of CO2, 1021molecules are removed. How many moles of CO2 are
left?
b) The density of a gaseous element is 5 times that of oxygen under similar
conditions. If the molecule is triatomic, what will be its atomic mass?
