CHAPTER 3 Atoms and Molecules (10)
Case-based Type Questions:
Q1. The molecular mass of a substance is the sum of the atomic masses of all
the atoms in a molecule of the substance. It is therefore, the relative mass of a
molecule expressed in atomic mass unit (u). Depending upon the number of
atoms of same or different elements present in the molecule, it can be
monoatomic, diatomic, triatomic, tetra-atomic or polyatomic molecule. The
formula unit mass is calculated in the same manner as the molecular mass
calculated. It is a sum of the atomic masses of all atoms in a formula unit of
compound.
Read the passage carefully and answer the following questions:
i. Which of the following is an example of polyatomic molecule?
a. H2 b. O2 c. S8 d. Cl2
ii. The relative molecular mass of H 2O is
a. 23 u b. 18 u c. 10 u d. 40 u
iii. How many atoms of oxygen are present in a molecule of CuCO 3?
a. 3 b. 4 c. 5 d. 6
iv. What is the ratio by mass of the combining elements in the compound
ammonia?
a. 14:3 b. 14:2 c. 3:14 d. 2:14
v. What is the formula unit mass of CaCl2?
a. 110 u b. 94 u c. 111 u d. 115 u
Objective Type Questions:
Q2. Which of the following represents 12 u?
a. Mass of 1 hydrogen atom b. Mass of C-12 atom
c. Mass of O-16 atom d. 1/12th of mass of C-12 atom.
Q3. The chemical symbol for nitrogen gas is:
a. Ni b. N2 c. N+ d. N

Q4. Write the chemical formulae for the following:
i. Calcium oxide ii. Sodium nitrate
Q5. Define atomicity. Write the atomicity of the sulphur and phosphorus
molecules.
Q6. The atomic number of three elements A, B and C are 9, 10 and 13
respectively. Which of them will form a cation?
Q7. Calculate the formula mass of sodium carbonate (Na 2CO3.10H2O).
Long Answer Type Questions:
Q8. Explain law of conservation of mass.
Q9. Calculate the molecular mass of the following.
i. H2CO3 ii. C2H5OH iii. MgSO4
Q10. Differentiate between cation and anion.
Q11. Write the formulae for the following and calculate the molecular mass for
each one of them.
i. Quick lime ii. Baking powder iii. Calcium carbonate
iv. Potassium sulphate v. Hydrogen bromide vi. Common salt
Q12. Explain law of constant proportion with the help of an example.
Q13. Write the postulates of Dalton’s atomic theory.
CHAPTER – 8: MOTION (10)
Case-based Type Questions:
Q1. When an object moves in a circular path with uniform speed, its motion is
called uniform Circular motion. The direction of motion changed at every point
moving along the circular path.
Read the passage carefully and answer the following questions:
i. Which one of the following is most likely not a case of uniform circular
motion?
a. The motion of the earth around the sun.
b. The motion of a toy train on a circular track.
c. The motion of a racing car on a circular track.
d. The motion of hours’ hand on the dial of a clock.
ii. The train is moving on a track. Though the speed of a train is constant
the direction of Motion (or direction of speed) is changing
continuously. So, the train is exhibiting
a. Uniform motion
b. Decelerated motion
c. Non-Uniform motion
d. Accelerated motion
iii. A cyclist goes around a circular track once every 2 minutes. If the
radius of the Circular track is 105 metres, calculate his speed.
a. 5.5m/s b. 5.6m/s c. 5.7m/s d. 5.8m/s
iv. A particle is moving in a circular path of radius r. The displacement
after half a circle would be
a. Zero b. πr c. 2r d. 2πr
v. A sprinter is running along the circumference of a big sports stadium
with Constant speed. Which of the following do you think is changing
in this case?
a. The magnitude of acceleration produced
b. Distance covered by the sprinter per second
c. The direction in which the sprinter is running
d. The centripetal force acting on the sprinter
Objective Type Questions:
Q2. Which of the following statements is correct?
a. Both speed and velocity are same
b. Speed is scalar and velocity is vector quantity
c. Speed is vector and velocity is scalar quantity
d. d. None of these
Q3. What is the slope of the body when it moves with uniform velocity?
a. Positive b. Negative c. Zero d. May be positive or negative

a. b. c. d.
Q5. Assertion(A): An object may acquire acceleration even if it is moving at a
constant speed.
Reason(R): With change in the direction of motion, an object can acquire
acceleration.
a. If both Assertion and Reason are true and Reason is the correct
explanation of Assertion.
b. If both Assertion and Reason are true but Reason is not the correct
explanation of Assertion.
c. If Assertion is true but Reason is false.
d. If Assertion is false but Reason is true.
Q6. Assertion(A): Velocity versus time graph of a particle in uniform motion
along a Straight path is a line parallel to the time axis.
Reason(R): In uniform motion, the velocity of a particle increases as the square
of the Time elapsed.
a. If both Assertion and Reason are true and Reason is the correct
explanation of Assertion.
b. If both Assertion and Reason are true but Reason is not the correct
explanation of Assertion.
c. If Assertion is true but Reason is false.
d. If Assertion is false but Reason is true.
