Homework Statement
On a recent chemistry exam, there were 15 multiple choice problems. I missed one of them. I was certain that I was right on every problem, except one problem that I guessed on. After comparing my test with the test of other students, though, I apparently guessed correctly on that one problem. So, one of those questions that I was sure about is apparently incorrect. Which question did get wrong?
The Attempt at a Solution
- Which of the following combination of names and formulas is incorrect?
- sodium hydroxide -- NaOH
- iron(III) chloride -- [itex]FeCl_2[/itex]
- potassium permanganate -- [itex]KMnO_4[/itex]
[*]lithium carbonate -- [itex]LiCO_3[/itex] I said it should be [itex]Li_2CO_3[/itex] - nitric acid -- [itex]HNO_3[/itex]
- How many significant figures are in the value 0.0003060000?
I said 7. - Which of the following element/family names is incorrect?
- Na = Alkali metal
- F = Halogen
[*]Ba = Transition Metal I said that Ba is not a transition metal - H = Non-metal
- Xe = Noble gas
- When the equation [itex]C_4H_{10}+O_2\rightarrow CO_2+H_2O[/itex] is balanced with the smallest set of integers, the sum of the coefficients is:
I thought it should be balanced as: [itex]2C_4H_{10}+13O_2\rightarrow 8CO_2+10H_2O[/itex], 2+13+8+10=33 - Superman comes from the planet Krypton. If you have 0.00789 g of the gaseous element Krypton, how many moles does this represent?
I said: .00789 g / 83.8 g/mol = [itex]9.41 x 10^{-5}[/itex] - When the equation [itex]C_5H_6N_2OS+O_2\rightarrow CO_2+H_2O+N_2+SO_2[/itex] is balanced with the smallest set of integers, the sum of the coefficients is:
I thought it should be balanced as: [itex]C_5H_6N_2OS+7O_2\rightarrow 5CO_2+3H_2O+N_2+SO_2[/itex] = 1+7+5+3+1+1=18 - The anesthetic... The compound is packaged as a 10% solution (by mass) in water.

- An isotope, X, of a particular element has an atomic number of 6 and a mass element of 14. Therefore,
- Succinic acid occurs in fungi and lichens. Its empirical formula is [itex]C_2H_3O_2[/itex] and its molar mass is 118.1 g/mol. What is its molecular formula?
- Which one of the following combinations of names and formulas of ions is incorrect?
- Which combination represents a [itex]^{57}Fe^{2+} ion?
- Pepto-Bismol... contains 300 mg of bismuth subsalicylate, [itex]C_{21}H_{15}Bi_3O_{13}[/itex] per tablet. What is the molar mass of this compound?
