Calculate the number of molecules of sulphur (S8) present in 16 g of solid sulphur.
Molar mass of S8 = 8 x 32 = 256 g
256 g = 6.022 x 1023 no. of molecules of S8
No. of molecules present in 16 g of solid sulphur = 6.022x1023 / 256 x 16 = 0.376 x 1023
= 3.76x1022
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

A stone of 1 kg is thrown with a velocity of 20 m s-1 across the frozen surface of a lake and comes to rest after travelling a distance of 50 m. What is the force of friction between the stone and the ice?
What are the desirable agronomic characteristics for crop improvements?
An athlete completes one round of a circular track of diameter 200 m in 40 s. What will be the distance covered and the displacement at the end of 2 minutes 20 s?
We know that many human activities lead to increasing levels of pollution of the air, water-bodies and soil. Do you think that isolating these activities to specific and limited areas would help in reducing pollution?
