29. Read the following passage and answer the questions as follow:- 4
The identity of a substance is defined not only by the types of atoms or ions it contains, but by the
quantity of each type of atom or ion. The experimental approach required the introduction of a new
unit for amount of substances, the mole, which remains indispensable in modern chemical science.
The mole is an amount unit similar to familiar units like pair, dozen, gross, etc. It provides a specific
measure of the number of atoms or molecules in a bulk sample of matter. A mole is defined as the
amount of substance containing the same number of discrete entities (atoms, molecules, ions, etc.) as
the number of atoms in a sample of pure 12C weighing exactly 12g. One Latin connotation for the
word “mole” is “large mass” or “bulk,” which is consistent with its use as the name for this unit. The
mole provides a link between an easily measured macroscopic property, bulk mass, and an extremely
important fundamental property, number of atoms, molecules and so forth. The number of entities
composing a mole has been experimentally determined to be 6.02214179 × 1023. 6.02214179 × 1023, a
fundamental constant named Avogadro’s number (NA ) or the Avogadro constant in honor of Italian
scientist Amedeo Avogadro. This constant is properly reported with an explicit unit of “per mole,” a
conveniently rounded version being 6.022×1023/mol. Consistent with its definition as an amount unit,
1 mole of any element contains the same number of atoms as 1 mole of any other element. The masses
of 1 mole of different elements, however, are different, since the masses of the individual atoms are
drastically different. The molar mass of an element (or compound) is the mass in grams of 1 mole of
that substance, a property expressed in units of grams per mole (g/mol).

a)A sample of copper sulphate pentahydrate contains 8.64 g of oxygen. How many grams of Cu is
present in the sample ?

b) The mass of oxygen gas which occupies 5.6 litres at STP could be:-
i)gram atomic mass of oxygen

 iv)half of the gram atomic mass of oxygen
c)What is the mass of one molecule of yellow phosphorus? (Atomic mass of phosphorus = 30)
30. Read the following passage and answer the questions that follow:- 4
▪ A total of four quantum numbers are used to describe the movement and trajectories of each electron
within an atom. The combination of all quantum numbers of all electrons in an atom is described by a
wave function that complies
▪ with the Schrodinger equation. Each electron in an atom has a unique set of quantum numbers;
according to the Pauli Exclusion Principle, no
▪ two electrons can share the same combination of four quantum numbers. Quantum numbers are
important because they can be used to determine the electronic configuration of an atom and the
probable location of the atom's electrons. Quantum numbers are also used to understand other
characteristics of atoms, such
▪ as ionisation energy and the atomic radius. In atoms, there are a total of four quantum
▪ numbers: the principal quantum number (n), the orbital angular momentum quantum number (l), the
magnetic quantum number (ml), and
▪ the electron spin quantum number (ms). The principal quantum number, n, describes the, energy of an
electron and the most probable distance of the electron from the nucleus. In other words, it refers to
the size of the orbital and the energy level in which an electron is placed in. The number of subshells,
or l, describes the shape of the orbital. It can also be used to determine the number of angular nodes.
The magnetic quantum number, ml, describes the energy levels in a subshell, and ms refers to the spin
on the electron, which can either be up or down.
(A) In which order, the energy of different subshells can be arranged for the given value of n? 1
(B) In dxy subshell, how many radial nodes are present??
(C) Name all the quantum number. Which quantum number represents the size and shape of the
subshell?
