11. A sulphate salt of Group 2 element of the Periodic Table is a white, soft substance, which can be moulded into different shapes by making its dough. When this compound is left in open for some time, it becomes a solid mass and cannot be used for moulding purposes. Identify the sulphate salt and why does it show such a behavior? Give the reaction involved.

Solution :
1. Substance                          Action on Litmus paper

Dry HCl gas                                  No change

Moistened NH3 gas                      Turns red to blue

Lemon juice                                  Turns blue to red

Carbonated soft drink                   Turns blue to red

Curd                                              Turns blue to red

Soap solution                                Turns red to blue

2. The acid present in ant sting is methanoic acid (formic acid). The chemical formula is HCOOH. To get relief one should apply any available basic salt e.g., baking soda (NaHCO3) on it.

3. Egg shells contain calcium carbonate. When nitric acid is added to it, carbon dioxide gas is evolved. The reaction can be given as

CaCO3 + 2HNO3 --------> Ca (NO3)2 + H2O + CO2

4. The chemical formula of baking powder is sodium hydrogencarbonate (NaHCO3). Whereas, that of washing soda is sodium carbonate (Na2CO3.10H2O) Sodium hydrogencarbonate on heating gives CO2 gas which will turn lime water milky whereas no such gas is obtained from sodium carbonate.

2NaHCO3 ---He---at-→ Na2CO3 + H2O + CO2

Na2CO3.10H2O ----He---at→ Na2CO3 + 10H2O

5. Baking powder (NaHCO3), salt A is commonly used in bakery products. On heating it forms sodium carbonate (Na2CO3), B and CO2 gas, C is evolved. When CO2 gas is passed through lime water it forms calcium carbonate (CaCO3), which is slightly soluble in water making it milky.

A — NaHCO3 B — Na2CO3 C — CO2 gas

6. In the manufacture of sodium hydroxide, hydrogen gas and chlorine gas (X) are formed as by–products. When chlorine gas (X) reacts with lime water, it forms calcium oxychloride (bleaching powder) Y. The reactions are

2NaCl (aq) + 2H2O(l) ------> 2NaOH (aq) + Cl2 (g) + H2(g) here, X---------> Cl2 (Chlorine gas)

Ca (OH)2 (s) + Cl2 (g) > CaOCl2 (s) + H2O here, Y —> Calcium oxychloride (bleaching powder)

7. When zinc reacts with dilute solution of strong acid, it forms salt and hydrogen gas is evolved.

Zn + 2HCl ----> ZnCl2 + H2

When a burning splinter is brought near the mouth of the test tube, the gas burns with a pop sound.

8. (a) Baking soda is sodium hydrogencarbonate. On heating, it is converted into sodium carbonate which is bitter to taste

2NaHCO3 ⎯⎯He⎯at⎯→ Na2CO3 + H2O + CO2

(b) Baking soda can be converted into baking powder by the addition of appropriate amount of tartaric acid to it.

(c) The role of tartaric acid is to neutralise sodium carbonate and cake will not taste bitter.

9. The gas evolved at anode during electrolysis of brine is chlorine (G) When chlorine gas is passed through dry Ca(OH)2 (Y) produces bleaching powder (Z) used for disinfecting drinking water.

Ca(OH)2 + Cl2 ------> CaOCl2 + H2O

Since Y and Z are calcium salts, therefore X is also a calcium salt and is calcium carbonate.

CaCO3 + 2HCl -------> CaCl2 + CO2 + H2O Ca(OH)2 + CO2 ---------à CaCO3 + H2O

10. Sodium hydroxide (NaOH) is a commonly used base and is hygroscopic, that is, it absorbs moisture from the atmosphere and becomes sticky.

The acidic oxides react with base to give salt and water. The reaction between NaOH and CO2 can be given as 2 NaOH + CO2 ---------> Na2CO3 + H2O

11. The substance which is used for making different shapes is Plaster of Paris. Its chemical name is calcium sulphate hemihydrates (CaSO4 . ½H2O). The two formula unit of CaSO4 share one molecule of water. As a result, it is soft.

When it is left open for some time, it absorbs moisture from the atmosphere and forms gypsum, which is a hard solid mass.

CaSO4 . ½H2O + 3/2H2O ---------> CaSO4. 2H2O

Plaster of Paris Gypsum

(Soft) (Hard mass) (Sulphate salt)

Class 09 Atoms and Molecules Numerical Problem based on Law of chemical Combination(Solved)

Class 09 Atoms and Molecules Numerical Problem based on Law of chemical Combination Law of conservation of mass Law of constant proportion Empirical formula 1. If 10 grams of CaCO 3 on heating gave 4.4g of CO 2 and 5.6g of CaO, show that these observations are in agreement with the law of conservation of mass.(Based on Law of conservation of mass) Solution:  Mass of the reactants = 10g ;  Mass of the products = 4.4 + 6.6g = 10g Since the mass of the reactants is equal to the mass of the products, the observations are in agreement with the law of conservation of mass. 2. 1.375 g of cupric oxide was reduced by heating and the weight of copper that remained was 1.098g.  In another experiment 1.179 g of copper was dissolved in nitric acid and the resulting copper nitrate was converted into cupric oxide by ignition . The weight of cupric oxide formed was 1.476 g. which law of chemical combinations does this data state? Solution: in first experiment: Copper oxide = 1....
