TYPING AND FORMATTING BY SANJAY KUMAR
INTRODUCTION
Chemistry is the science of substances, their properties, structures and their transformation. As all objects in the universe are made of matter. Chemistry is the branch of the science which deals with the study of material object. Study of chemistry is very interesting which covers various aspects of our culture and environment. All development in any science are based on scientific approach as in chemistry too. In order to achieve correct results, one has to rely upon the various skills connected with the measurements of quantities during a physical or chemical change. The degree of accuracy is closely linked with precision of the measuring instrument as well as on the skill of the person engaged in measurement. So we should be first familiar with some terminology used in chemistry.
Physical Property:
The property which can be measured without changing the chemical composition of the substance is known as physical property like mass, volume, density, refractive index etc.
Chemical Property:
The property which can be evaluated at the cost of matter itself is known as chemical property. For example combustible nature of hydrogen gas can be verified by burning of hydrogen. The sweet taste of sugar by consuming it.
Units for Measurement
All physical quantities have to be measured. The value of a physical quantity is expressed as the product of the numerical value and the unit in which it is expressed.
Fundamental Units:
Fundamental units are those units which can neither be derived from one another nor they can be further resolved into any other units.
The seven fundamental units of measurement in S.I. system.

Units and Dimensional Analysis: Conversion of Units
The simplest way to carry out calculations that involve different units is to use dimensional analysis. In this method a quantity expressed in one unit is converted into an equivalent quantity with a different unit by using conversion factor which express the relationship between units:
Original quantity ( conversion factor = equivalent quantity
(in former unit)
(in other unit)
This is based on the fact that ratio of each fundamental quantity in one unit with their equivalent quantity in other unit is equal to one
For example in case of mass
So 1 kg = 2.205 pond = 1000 gm
In this way any derived unit first expressed in dimension and each fundamental quantities like mass length time are converted in other system of desired unit to work out the conversion factor.
For example: How unit of work / energy i.e. joule, in S.I. system is related with unit erg in C.G.S system
Dimension of work = force ( displacement = MLT-2 ( L = ML2T-2
1 joule = 1 kg (1 metre)2 ( (1see)-2

Similarly we can deduce other conversion factor for other quantity in different unit by the dimensional analysis method
Another interesting example is the conversion of litre – atmosphere to joule (the SI unit of energy) by multiplying with two successive unit factors. Thus,

Exercise 1.
Vanadium metal is added to steel to impart strength. The density of vanadium is 5.96 g/cm2. Express this in S.I. units (kg/m3).
Matter
Anything that exhibits inertia is known as matter. The quantity of matter is its mass. e.g. chalk table.
CLASSIFICATION OF MATTER
This classification of matter is based upon chemical composition of various substances. According to this matter can be further divided into two types, pure substance and mixture. Mixtures are also of two types, homogenous mixtures and heterogeneous mixtures.
Matter
Pure Substance
Mixture
Element
Compound
Homogenous
Heterogeous
Elements:
The primary stuff present in all the substance is known as element, whose smallest unit is known as atom. Total 112 elements are known till date of which 92 are naturally occurring elements rest are results of artificial transmutation. There are 88 metals, 18 non metals and 6 metaloids.
Compound:
A non elemental pure substance is called a compound in which more than one atom of elements are linked by chemical bonds formed due to chemical reaction. The resulting molecule is a electrically neutral particle of constant continuous composition.
Mixture:
Mixtures are the aggregate of more than one type of pure substance whose chemical identity remains maintained even in mixtures. Their constituent ratio may vary unlike compound.
For example – sugar + water = sugar syrup, Gun-powder 75 % KNO3 10% sulphur + 15% carbon
There are two types of mixture (a) homogeneous (b) heterogenous
(a)Homogeneous mixtures are those whose composition for each part remains constant. For example aqueous and gaseous solution.
(b)Heterogeneous mixtures are those whose composition may vary for each and every part. For example soil, concrete mixtures.
LAWS OF CHEMICAL COMBINATION
In order to understand the composition of the compounds, it is necessary to have a theory which accounts for both qualitative and quantitative observations during chemical changes. Observations of chemical reactions were most significant in the development of a satisfactory theory of the nature of matter. These observations of chemical reactions are summarized in certain statements known as laws of chemical combination.
Law of conservation of mass:
For any chemical change total mass of active reactants are always equal to the mass of the product formed. It is a derivation of Dalton’s atomic theory ‘atoms neither created nor destroyed’.
Total masses of reactants = Total masses of products + Masses of unreacted reactants
Illustration2. 5.2 g of CaCo
3
EMBED Equation.3 hen heated produced 1.99 g of Carbon dioxide and the residue (CaO) left behind weighs 3.2g. Show that these results illustrate the law of conservation of mass.
Solution:
Weight of CaCo
3
EMBED Equation.3 taken = 5.2 g
Total weight of the products (CaO +CO
2
)= 3.20+ 1.99 = 5.19 g
Difference between the wt. of the reactant and the total wt. of the products
= 5.20 – 5.19 =0.01 g.
This small difference may be due to experimental error.
Thus law of conservation of mass holds good within experimental errors.
Law of constant composition
A chemical compound always contains same elements in definite proportion by mass and it does not depend on the source of compound.
For example

Illustration 3. Ammonia contains 82.65 % N

and 17.65% H2. If the law of constant proportions is true, then the mass of zinc required to give 10 g Ammonia will be:
(A)8.265 g(B) 0.826 g

Solution:The mass of zinc required to give 10 g ammonia will be

Hence (B) is correct
Illustration 4. Irrespective of the source, pure sample of water always yields 88.89% mass of oxygen and 11.11% mass of hydrogen. This is explained by the law of:
(A)conservation of mass(B)constant composition
(C)multiple proportion(D)constant volume

Hence (B) is correct.
Illustration 5. 6.488 g of lead combine directly with 1.002 g of oxygen to form lead peroxide
2
(PbO)
. Lead peroxide is also produced by heating lead nitrate and it was found that the percentage of oxygen present in lead peroxide is 13.38 percent. Use these data to illustrate the law of constant composition.
Solution:Step 1: To calculate the percentage of oxygen in first experiment.
Weight of peroxide formed
= 6.488 + 1. 002 = 7.490 g.
7. 490 g of lead peroxide contain 1.002 g of oxygen
\
100 g of lead peroxide will contain oxygen
1.002
10013.38g
7.490
´=
i.e. oxygen present = 13.38%
Step 2: To compare the percentage of oxygen in both the experiments.
Percentage of oxygen in
2
PbO
in the first experiment = 13.38
Percentage of oxygen in
2
PbO
in the second experiment = 13.38
Since the percentage composition of oxygen in both the samples of
2
PbO
is identical, the above data illustrate the law of constant composition.
Illustration 6.Copper oxide was prepared by the following methods:
(a) In one case, 1.75 g of the metal were dissolved in nitric acid and igniting the residual copper nitrate yielded 2.19 g of copper oxide.
(b)In the second case, 1.14 g of metal dissolved in nitric acid were precipitated as copper hydroxide by adding caustic alkali solution. The precipitated copper hydroxide after washing, drying and heating yielded 1.43 g of copper oxide.
(c)In the third case, 1.45 g of copper when strongly heated in a current of air yielded 1.83 g of copper oxide. Show that the given data illustrate the law of constant composition.
Solution:Step 1: In the first experiment.
2.19 g of copper oxide contained 1.75 g of Cu.
\
100 g of copper oxide contained
1.75
10079.91g

=´=
Step 2: In the second experiment.
1.43 g of copper oxide contained 1.14 g of copper.
\
100 g of copper oxide contained

.
Step 3: In the third experiment.
1.83 g of copper oxide contained 1.46 g of copper
\
100 g of copper oxide contained
1.46

1.83
=´=
Thus the percentage of copper in copper oxide derived from all the three experiments is nearly the same. Hence, the above data illustrate the law of constant composition.
Exercise 2.
5.06 g of pure cupric oxide (CuO), on complete reduction by heating in a current of hydrogen, gave 4.04 g of metallic copper. 1.3 g of pure metallic copper was completely dissolved in nitric acid and the resultant solution was carefully dried and ignited. 1.63 g CuO were produced in the process. Show that these results illustrate the law of constant proportions.
Exercise 3.
In an experiment, 2.4 g of iron oxide on reduction with hydrogen yield 1.68 g of iron. In another experiment 2.9 g of iron oxide give 2.03 g of iron on reduction with hydrogen. Show that the above data illustrate the law of constant proportions.
Exercise 4.
2.8 g of calcium oxide (CaO) prepared by heating limestone were found to contain 0.8 g of oxygen. When one gram of oxygen was treated with calcium, 3.5 g of calcium oxide were obtained. Show that the results illustrate the law of definite proportions.
Law of multiple proportion:
When two elements combine to form two or more than two different compounds then the different masses of one element B which combine with fixed mass of the other element bear a simple ratio to one another.
For example: Carbon forms two oxides in oxygen
Carbon monoxide

The ratio of masses of oxygen in CO and CO2 for fixed mass of carbon (12) is 16 : 32 = 1: 2.
Illustration 7. The law of multiple proportions is illustrated by the pair of compounds:
(A)sodium chloride and sodium bromide
(B)water and heavy water
(C)sulphur dioxide and sulphur trioxide
(D)magnesium hydroxide and magnesium oxide
Solution:
In SO2 32 gram of suphur react with 32 gram of oxygen. Similarly for SO3 fixed mass of sulphur (32 gram) react with 48 gram of oxygen. The ratio of oxygen’s mass = 32:48 = 2:3
Which support law of multiple proportions.
Hence (C) is correct answer.
Illustration 8.Carbon is found to form two oxides, which contain 42.9% and 27.3% of carbon respectively. Show that these figures illustrate the law of multiple proportions.
Solution:
Step 1: To calculate the percentage composition of carbon and oxygen in each of the two oxides
First oxideSecond oxide
Carbon42.9%
27.3%
(Given)
Oxygen57.1%
72.7%
(by difference)
Step 2:To calculate the weights of carbon which combine with a fixed weight i.e., one part by weight of oxygen in each of the two oxides.
In the first oxide, 57.1 parts by weight of oxygen combine with carbon = 42.9 parts.
\
1 part by weight of oxygen will combine with carbon
42.9

In the second oxide 72.7 parts by weight of oxygen combine with carbon = 27.3 parts.
\
1 part by weight of oxygen will combine with carbon
27.3

72.7
=
Step 3:To compare the weights of carbon which combine with the same weight of oxygen in both the oxides-
The ratio of the weights of carbon that combine with the same weight of oxygen (1 part) is 0.751: 0.376 or 2:1
Since this is a simple whole number ratio, so the above data illustrate the law of multiple proportions.
Exercise 5.
Metal M and chlorine combine in different proportions to form two compounds A and B. The mass ratio M : Cl is 0.895 : 1 in A and 1.791 : 1 in B. What law of chemical combination is illustrated?
Exercise 6.
By means of the following analytical results show that law of multiple proportions is true:
Mercurous chloride Mercuric chloride
Mercury = 84.92%
Mercury = 73.80%
Chlorine = 15.08%
Chlorine = 26.20%
Exercise 7.
1 g of a metal, having no variable valency, produces 1.67 g of its oxide when heated in air. Its carbonate contains 28.57% of the metal. How much oxide will be obtained by heating 1 g of carbonate?
Exercise 8.
Phosphorous and chlorine form two compounds. The first contains 22.54% by mass of phosphorous and the second 14.88% of phosphorous. Show that these data are consistent with law of multiple proportions.
Law of reciprocal proportion:
If two elements B and C react with the same mass of a third element (A), the ratio in which they do so will be the same or simple multiple if B and C reacts with each other.
The above law is the basis of law of equivalent masses, which will be described latter in details.

i.e. first ratio is integral multiple of second.
Illustration 9. One part of an element A combines with two parts of B (another element). Six parts of element C combine with four parts of element B. If A and C combines together, the ratio of their masses will be governed by:
(A)law of definite proportions(B)law of multiple proportions
(C)law of reciprocal proportions(D)law of conservation of mass
Solution:
B2B42

from this when A combined with C the ratio is A/C = 1/3
Hence (C) is correct.
Illustration 10. Hydrogen combines with chlorine to form HCl. It also combines with sodium to form NaH. If sodium and chlorine also combine with each other, they will do so in the ratio of their masses as
(A)23 : 35.5(B)35.5 : 23
(C)1 : 1(D)23 : 1
Solution:
1atom of hydrogen combined with 1 atom of chlorine and 1 atom of sodium. So when sodium react with chlorine the ratio is 1 : 1 by atom. While 23 : 35.5 by mass.
Hence (A) is correct.
Illustration 11.Copper sulphide contains 66.6% Cu, copper oxide contains 79.9% copper and sulphur trioxide contains 40% Sulphur. Show that these data illustrates law of reciprocal proportions.
Solution:
In copper sulphides
Cu : S mass ratio is 66.6 : 33.4
In sulphur trioxide
Oxygen : Sulphur (O:S) mass ratio is 60:40
Now in CuS

Exercise 12.
Aluminium oxide contains 52.9% aluminium and carbon dioxide contains 27.27% carbon. Assuming the validity of the law of reciprocal proportions, calculate the percentage of aluminium in aluminium carbide.
Gay Lussac’s law of Combining Volumes:
At given temperature and pressure the volumes of all gaseous reactants and products bear a simple whole number ratio to each other.
For example

i.e. one volume of hydrogen reacts with one volume of chlorine to form two volumes of HCl gas. i.e. the ratio by volume which gases bears is 1:1:2 which is a simple whole number ratio.

PERCENTAGE YIELD
Reactants, often yield quantities of products that are less than those calculated from the balanced chemical equation.
Reason behind such discrepancy may be:
(i)Some of the reactants fail to undergo reaction due to lower amount at the end.
(ii)Some of the reactant follows other route of reaction resulting unexpected, undesired side product.
(iii)Some of the expected product recombines to form other undesired product or reverting toward reactant also known as backward reaction.
(iv)The total recovery, isolation of products is not possible due to some unavoidable reason.
So percentage yield is the ratio of actual yield (recovered) to theoretical yield multiplied by 100.

DALTON’S ATOMIC THEORY
By observing the laws of chemical combination discussed above, John Dalton (1808) proposed atomic theory of matter. The main points of Dalton’s atomic theory are as follows:
· Matter is made up of extremely small, indivisible particles called atoms.
· Atom of same substance are identical in all respect i.e. they posses same size, shape, mass, chemical properties etc.
· Atom of different substances are different in all respect i.e. they posses different shape, size, mass and chemical properties etc.
· Atom is the smallest particle that takes part in chemical reactions.
· Atom of different elements may combine with each other in a fixed, simple, whole number ratio to form compound atoms.
· Atom can neither be created nor destroyed i.e. atoms are indestructible.
Limitations
The main failures of Dalton’s atomic theory are:
· Atom was no more indivisible. It is made up of various sub(atomic particles like electrons, proton and neutron etc.
· It failed to explain how atoms of different elements differ from each other.
· It failed to explain how and why atoms of elements combine with each other to form compound atoms or molecules.
· It failed to explain the nature of forces that bind together different atoms in molecules.
· It failed to explain Gay Lussac’s law of combining volumes.
· It did not make any distinction between ultimate particle of an element that takes part in reaction (atoms) and the ultimate particle that has independent existence (molecules).
Modern Atomic theory or Modified Atomic Theory
· Atom is no longer supposed to be indivisible. Atom has a complex structure and is composed of sub(atomic particles such as electrons protons and neutrons.
· Atom of the same element may not be similar in all respects e.g. isotopes.
· Atom of different elements may be similar in one or more respects e.g. isobars.
· Atom is the smallest unit which takes part in chemical reactions.
· The ratio in which atoms unite may be fixed and integral but may not be simple. e.g. In sugar molecules
122211
CHO
, the ratio of C, H and O atoms is 12:22:11 which is not simple.
· Atom of one element can be changed into atoms of other element for e.g. transmutation.
· Mass of atom can be changed in energy.
2
E = MC
according to Eienstein mass energy relationship, mass and energy are inter(convertible. Thus atom is no longer indestructible.
Illustration 14. An important postulate of Dalton’s atomic theory is:
(A)an atom contains electrons, protons and neutrons
(B)atom can neither be created nor destroyed nor divisible
(C)all the atoms of an element are not identical
(D)all the elements are available in nature in the form of atoms
Solution:
The statement written in (B) is about law of mass conservation which is true for all chemical reaction.
Hence (B) is correct.
Atom: Atom is the ultimate electrically neutral, made up of fundamental particle (Electron, neutron, Proton) which shows the characteristic properties of the element and exist freely in a chemical reaction.
Molecules: A molecule is the smallest particle made up of one or more than one atom in a definite ratio having stable and independent existence e.g.
2223
H, O, N,He,HCl,CaCO
etc.
ATOMIC MASS AND MOLECULAR MASS
Atomic Mass: As atoms are very tiny particles, their absolute masses are difficult to measure. However it is possible to determine the relative masses of different atoms if small unit of mass is taken as standard (previously, this standard was mass of one atom of hydrogen and taken as unity. Later on it was
th
1/16
part of oxygen atom and now it is
th
1/12
part of C(12 atom).
The atomic mass of an element can be defined as the number which indicates how many times the mass of one atom of the element is heavier in comparison to the mass of one atom of hydrogen.

But this law is not applicable to lighter element like boron, carbon, silicon. To obtain correct atomic mass of element first of all equivalent mass of the element is known by any other method and their atomic mass = eq. weight ( valency
In which valency has whole number value which can be deduced by dividing approximate by equivalent mass.

(ii)Cannizzaro’s methods
If an element has several compound with other same or different elements of known atomic mass then the compound that has minimum presence of former element indicate the atomic mass of former element.

(iii)Law of Isomorphism
When two or more compound forms similar type of crystals or able to form mixed crystals, they are known as isomorphs. For examples: MgSO4.7H2O, ZnSO4.7H2O and FeSO4.7H2O are isomorphs of each other as their crystals posses same shape.
According to Mitscherlich [year 1819].
The valency of elements that are similarly placed to that of other elements in their isomorphs are always same.
In the above example Fe, Zn and Mg have same valency [2] and equal ratio of water molecule in each isomorphs.
If equivalent mass of one element is known then atomic mass can be calculated by knowing the valency of other isomorphs key element.
Illustration 18. Which pair of the following substances is said to be isomorphous?
(A)White vitriol and blue vitriol(B)Epsom salt and Glauber’s salt
(C)Blue vitriol and Glauber’s salt(D)White vitriol and Epsom salt
Solution:
Epsom salt (MgSO4.7H2O) and White vitriol (ZnSO4.7H2O) contains divalent cation Mg2+ and Zn2+ and same number of water molecules as water of crystallization which hold criteria for isomorphism.
Hence (D) is correct.
Exercise 16.
White vitriol (hydrated sulphite) is isomorphous with MgSO4.7H2O. White vitriol contains 22.95% zinc and 43.9% of water of crystallization. Find the atomic mass of zinc.
Exercise 17.
Two oxides of metals A and B are isomorphous. The metal A whose atomic mass is 52, forms a chloride whose vapour density is 79. The oxide of the metal B contains 47.1% oxygen. Calculate the atomic mass of B.
(iv)Atomic mass from vapour density of a chloride:
The following steps are involved in this method
· Vapour density of chloride of the element is determined
· Equivalent mass of the element is determined
Let the valency of the element be x. The formula of its chloride will be

EMPIRICAL FORMULA
It is the formula which expresses the smallest whole number ratio of the constituent atom within the molecule. Empirical formula of different compound may be same. So it may or may not represent the actual formula of the molecule. It can be deduced by knowing the weight % of all the constituent element with their atomic masses for the given compound.
For example: C6H12O6, CH3COOH, HCHO
All have same empirical formula CH2O, but they are different.
The empirical formula of a compound can be determined by the following steps:
· Write the name of detected elements in column-1 present in the compound.
· Write the corresponding atomic mass in column-2.
· Write the experimentally determined percentage composition by weight of each element present in the compound in column-3.
· Divide the percentage of each element by its atomic weight to get the relative number of atoms of each element in column-4.
· Divide each number obtained for the respective elements in step (3) by the smallest number among those numbers so as to get the simplest ratio in column-5.
· If any number obtained in step (4) is not a whole number then multiply all the numbers by a suitable integer to get whole number ratio. This ratio will be the simplest ratio of the atoms of different elements present in the compound. Empirical formula of the compound can be written with the help of this ratio in column-6.

According to general assumptions reactants on left hand side and products (although they are informed as per experimental facts) on right hand side in corporating on arrow ( in the middle to indicate the progress of reaction [is forward] and = in the middle if equation is balanced, are written.
If any physical parameters to procure the desired reaction is necessary they are indicated in the middle along the arrow or equal sign like temperature, pressure, catalyst medium etc.
As atoms are neither created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction according to law of mass conservation, balanced chemical equation must contain equal no of atoms for each elements across the sign of equality maintaining right chemical formula for each component of reaction system.
A balanced equation is a statement of the both qualitative and quantitative relation between reactant and products involved in any chemical change.
We balance the equation by making the number of atoms of each element participating in the reaction the same as that appearing in the products. This can be accomplished by placing the required number stoichio-coefficient before each formula by taking consideration that subscripts in the formulas must not be altered.
Hit and Trial Method
This method as the name suggests, is not based on any definite procedure. However, the following guidelines may be helpful.
(i)Write the skeleton equation by mentioning the symbols and formulae of the reactants and products.
(ii)If an elementary gas like H2, O2 or N2 etc. appears on either side of the equation, write the same in the atomic form.
(iii)Select the formula which contains the maximum number of atoms and start balancing.
(iv)In case the above method is not convenient, then start balancing the atoms which appear the least number of times.
(v)Balance the atoms of the elementary gas in the last.
(vi)When the balancing is complete, convert the equation into molecular form.
The balancing of a chemical equation by the above method is illustrated by the following examples.
Illustration 32. A chemical equation is balanced according to the law of:
(A)multiple proportions(B)constant proportions
(C)reciprocal proportions(D)conservation of mass

CONCEPT OF LIMITING REAGENT
Limiting Reactant
The reactant which is totally consumed during the course of reaction and when it is consumed reaction stops.
The concept of limiting reactant is applicable to reaction other than monomolecular i.e., when more than one type reactant involved. For example
32
2KClO2KCl3O
¾¾®+
. These is no limiting reactant.
To determine the limiting reagent amount of all reactants and mole ratio of reactants must be known. If the ratio of moles of reactant A with respect to reactant B is greater than the ratio of the moles of A to moles of B for a balanced chemical equation then B is the limiting reactant.
All other terms like left (unused) mass of other reactant, amount of formed product can be known stoichiometrically by knowing the amount of limiting reactant.

(Where d = density of solution)
Parts per million parts (ppm): For every dilute solution, i.e., when a very small quantity of a solute is present in large quantity of a solution, the concentration of the solute is expressed in terms of ppm. It is defined as the mass of the solute present in one million (106) parts by mass of the solution. Thus for a solute A,

The pollution of the atmosphere is also reported in ppm but it is expressed in terms of volumes rather than masses, i.e. volume of the harmful gas (e.g. SO2) in cm3 present in 103 cm3 of the air.
(ii)Relationship between molarity (M) and molality (m): Molarity M means M moles of solute are present in 100 cc. of the solution. If density of the solution is d g/cc, mass of solution = 1000 f grams. Mass of solute = MM2g (M2 is mol mass of solute).

Prob 6.In an experiment, 2.4g of iron oxide on reduction with hydrogen yield 1.68g of iron. In another experiment 2.9g of iron oxide give 2.03g of iron in reduction with hydrogen. Show that these data, illustrate the law of constant composition.
Sol.In the first experiment
The mass of iron oxide = 2.4g
Mass of iron after reduction = 1.68
So mass of oxygen = Mass of oxide – Mass of iron
= 2.4 – 1.68 = 0.72
O: Fe = 0.72: 1.68 = 1:2.33
In second experiment mass of iron oxide = 2.9g
Mass of iron after reduction = 2.03g
Mass of oxygen = 2.9 – 2.03 = 0.87g
O : Fe = 0.87 : 2.03 = 1:2.33

MO
, find that of the second.
Sol.In the first oxide, oxygen = 27.6, metal = 100-27.6 = 72.4 parts by weight.
As the formula of the oxide is
34
MO
, this means 72.4 parts by wt. of metal = 3 atoms of metal and 4 atoms of oxygen = 27.6 parts by weight.
In the second oxide, oxygen = 30.0 parts by weight and metal = 100-30 =70 parts by weight.
But 72.4 parts by weight of metal = 3 atoms of metal
