Class 9 Science - Chapter Atoms and Molecules NCERT Solutions | What are polyatomic ions? Give examples.

Convert into mole.

(a) 12 g of oxygen gas
(b) 20 g of water
(c) 22 g of carbon dioxide.

In a reaction, 5.3 g of sodium carbonate reacted with 6 g of ethanoic acid. The products were 2.2 g of carbon dioxide, 0.9 g water and 8.2 g of sodium observations are in agreement with the law of conservation of mass.

sodium carbonate + ethanoic acid → sodium ethanoate + carbon dioxide + water

Write down the formulae of
(i) sodium oxide
(ii) aluminium chloride
(iii) sodium suphide

(i) H₂S molecule and
(ii) PO₄^3- ion?

Calculate the molecular masses of H₂, O₂, Cl₂, CO₂, CH₄, C₂H₆, C₂H₄, NH₃, CH₃OH.

A 0.24 g sample of compound of oxygen and boron was found by analysis to contain 0.096 g of boron and 0.144 g of oxygen. Calculate the percentage composition of the compound by weight.

Calculate the number of aluminium ions present in 0.051 g of aluminium oxide.
(Hint: The mass of an ion is the same as that of an atom of the same element. Atomic mass of Al = 27 u)

Calculate the formula unit masses of ZnO, Na₂O, K₂CO₃, given atomic masses of Zn=65 u, Na=23 u, K=39 U, C=12 u and O=16 u.

State the universal law of gravitation.

Which of the following are matter?

Chair, air, love, smell, hate, almonds, thought, cold, cold-drink, smell of perfume.

A force of 7 N acts on an object. The displacement is, say 8 m, in the direction of the force (Fig. 11.3). Let us take it that the force acts on the object through the displacement. What is the work done in this case?

What is meant by a pure substance?

How does the sound produced by a vibrating object in a medium reach your ear?

What are canal rays?

State any two conditions essential for good health.

How is our atmosphere different from the atmospheres on Venus and Mars?

Who discovered cells, and how?

A pair of bullocks exerts a force of 140 N on a plough. The field being ploughed is 15 m long. How much work is done in ploughing the length of the field?

The kinetic energy of an object of mass, m moving with a velocity of 5 m s^-1 is 25 J. What will be its kinetic energy when its velocity is doubled? What will be its kinetic energy when its velocity is increased three times?

Write the formula to find the magnitude of the gravitational force between the earth and an object on the surface of the earth.

Helium atom has an atomic mass of 4 u and two protons in its nucleus. How many neutrons does it have?

Amit buys few grams of gold at the poles as per the instruction of one of his friends. He hands over the same when he meets him at the equator. Will the friend agree with the weight of gold bought? If not, why? [Hint: The value of g is greater at the poles than at the equator.]

Calculate the force of gravitation between the earth and the Sun, given that the mass of the earth = 6 × 10²⁴ kg and of the Sun = 2 × 10³⁰ kg. The average distance between the two is 1.5 × 10¹¹ m.

A force of 7 N acts on an object. The displacement is, say 8 m, in the direction of the force (Fig. 11.3). Let us take it that the force acts on the object through the displacement. What is the work done in this case?

When do we say that work is done?

What are the differences between the mass of an object and its weight?

An object of mass 1 kg travelling in a straight line with a velocity of 10 m s^-1 collides with, and sticks to, a stationary wooden block of mass 5 kg. Then they both move off together in the same straight line. Calculate the total momentum just before the impact and just after the impact. Also, calculate the velocity of the combined object.
