Malachite has the formula Cu2CO3(OH)2. What percentage by mass of malachite is copper?
-
Solution
Percentage by mass of copper in malachite
= \(\frac{2 \times 63.5}{221}\) =57.5%
In Haber process 30 litres of dihydrogen and 30 litres of dinitrogen were taken for reaction which yielded only 50% of the expected product.What will be the composition of gaseous mixture under the aforesaid condition in the end?

Solution
Percentage of Se in peroxidase anhydrase enzyme is 0.5% by weight (at. wt. of Se = 78.4) then minimum molecular weight of peroxidase anhydrase enzyme is
-
Solution
0.5 g of Se = 100 g enzyme
78.4 g of Se = \(\frac{11}{0.5}\) × 78.4 = 1.568 × 104 g enzyme
Specific volume of cylindrical virus particle is 6.02 × 10–2cc/gm.whose radius and length 7 Å & 10 Å respectively.If NA= 6.02 × 1023, find molecular weight of virus

Haemoglobin contains 0.334% of iron by weight. The molecular weight of haemoglobin is approximately 67200. The number of iron atoms (at. wt.of Fe is 56) present in one molecule of haemoglobin are
-
Solution
Mass of iron in 100 g haemoglobin = 0.334 g
∴ In 67200 g haemoglobin, mass of iron
=\(\frac{67200 \times 0.334}{100}\) = 672 × 0.33g∴ The number of Fe atoms in one molecule of haemoglobin
= \(\frac{672 \times 0.334}{56}\) = 4
The density of 0.5 M glucose solution is 1.0900 g ml–1. The molality of the solution is
-
Solution
Mass of 1 L (= 1000 ml)solution =1000 × 1.090 = 1090g
Mass of glucose in 1L = 0.5 × 180 = 90 g.
Mass of water = 1090.0 g – 90.0 g= 1000 g
Hence, molality = \(\frac{0.5 \times 1000}{1000}\) = 0.5
Percent by mass of a solute (molar mass = 28 g) in its aqueous solution is 28. Calculate the mole fraction (X) and molality (m)of the solute in the solution.

Solution
Ratio of Cp and Cv of a gas ‘X’ is 1.4. The number of atoms of the gas ‘X’ present in 11.2 litres of it at NTP will be
-
Solution
Cp/ Cv= 1.4 shows that the gas is diatomic.
22.4 litre at NTP = 6.02 ×1023 molecules
11.2 L at NTP = 3.01 × 1023 molecules
= 3.01 × 1023 × 2 atoms = 6.02 × 1023 atoms
A metal oxide has the formula Z2O3. It can be reduced by hydrogen to give free metal and water. 0.1596 g of the metal oxide requires 6 mg of hydrogen for complete reduction. The atomic weight of the metal is
