QUESTION 2
2.1.1 The water that is stoichiometrically bound into a crystal. (2)
2.1.2 M(CaSO4)= 40+32 + (4×16) = 136( g.mol-1)
4 x 16
%(O) = x 100
136
%(O) = 47,059 (3)
2.1.3 40+32 + (4×16) + n(2+16) = 172
n = 2 (3)
2.2.1 the simplest ratio of atoms in a molecule. (2)
2.2.2 Elements C H O

(6)
Empirical formula : CH2O
2.2.3 OPTION 1
M (CH2O) = 12 + 2(1) + 16 = 30 g.mol-1
Therefore, the molecular formula is C2H4O2
OPTION 2
(CH2O)X = 60g.mol-1
(12 +2+16)X = 60
X = 2
(2)
Therefore, the molecular formula is C2H4O2 [18]

QUESTION 3
3.1.1 The amount of substance with the same number of particles as there are
atoms in 12 g carbon-12. (2)
3.1.2 m

n(O3) = = 0,0154 mol (3)
48
3.1.3 n(O2) = n(O3) = 0,0154 mol
V
n=
Vm
∴ V = (0,0154)(22,4) (3)
∴ V = 0,34 dm3
3.1.4 n(O2) = n(NO2) = 0,0154 mol
N
n
NA
N
0,0154 =
(6,02x1023 )
(3)
N(NO2) = 9,2708X 1021 molecules
3.2.1 One mole of any gas occupies the same volume at the same temperature
and pressure. (2)
3.2.2 n(H2): n(NH3) = 3:2
2
n(NH3) = 3 x 6 = 4 mol
(2)
3.2.3 V1 V2

QUESTION 4
m 150
4.1 n(Fe2O3) = M = 160 = 0,94 mol
n(Fe2O3) : n(Fe) = 1:2
n(Fe) = 0,94 x 2 = 1,88 mol
m
n=M
m
1,88 = 56
m(Fe) = 105,28 g (5)
4.2 actual yield
Percentage yield = × 100
theoretical yield
87,9
Percentage yield = ×100
105,28
Percentage yield =83.49 % (3)
