1. Nitrogen may be combined with oxygen in proportion by mass of 1.75 g nitrogen to 1.00 g oxygen to form the gas nitrous oxide, N2O. The same elements may be combined in the ratio of 0.438g nitrogen to 1.00g oxygen. What is the atomic composition of the second compound?

a. NO(2)
b. NO
c. N(2)O
d. NO(3)

Answer: a. NO(2)
Molecular weight of Nitrogen= 28 g/mol
Molecular weight of Oxygen= 32 g/mol

In 0.438 g of Nitrogen there are 0.0156 moles =0.438/28
In 1 g of Oxygen there are 0.0313 moles =1/32

Therfore ratio of Nitrogen to Oxygen = 0.0156 : 0.0313
or 1 : 2

2. In an electrolysis experiment, a student plated silver onto an electrode, maintaining a current of 0.800 A for 46.0 min. What mass of silver was deposited?

a. 1.23 g
b. 2.47 g
c. 3.62 g
d. 3.10 g

Answer: b. 2.47 g

Charge (in Coulombs)= Current (in Amperes ) x time ( in seconds)
Therefore charge= 2208 Coulomb =0.8*46*60

1 mole of electron ...
