Problem 1: Given that a compound is
60% Mg and 40% O, find the empirical
formula of this compound.
Problem 2: find the percent
composition of Cu and H2O in the
compound CuSO4 H2O copper
sulfate monohydrate
Problem 3: naturally occurring
Argon consists of thee isotopes Ar 36
constitutes 0.34% of all Argon atoms
in nature Ar 38 constitutes 0.07%
while the most abundant is Ar 40.
What is the atomic mass of argon?
Problem 4: calculate the oxygen
pressure in a mixture of 0.5 mole of

oxygen and 0.75 mol of nitrogen with

a total pressure of 40kPa.
Problem 5: in a certain experiment,
argon effuses from a porous cup at 4
mol/ minute. How fast(in mol/minutes)
would chlorine gas effuse under the
same condition?
Problem 6: on a space station a 10.0
L steel drum of oxygen gas at 25
degree celcius and 101.3 kPa pressure
springs a leak and 8g of gas escapes
before the leak is plugged. What is the
final pressure of the oxygen in the
drum at 25 degree celcius?
Problem 7:
K

find the mass of 1 mol of
