AnswerLinkExplanations
31 Which formula represents copper(I) oxide?
(1) CuO     (3) Cu2O
(2) CuO2   (4) Cu2O2
3LinkCuO2-

2:1 ratio

32 At STP, a 7.49-gram sample of an element has a volume of 1.65 cubic centimeters. The sample is most likely
(1) Ta (3) Te
(2) Tc (4) Ti
4Linkd=m/v    7.49g/1.65cm3

then use Table S to  match up the element

33 Which element, represented by X, reacts with fluorine to produce the compound XF2?
(1) aluminum    (3) magnesium
(2) argon          (4) sodium
3LinkA

LinkB

X charge is 2+

group 2

2Linksame number of protons
35 As atomic number increases within Group 15 on the Periodic Table, atomic radius
(1) decreases, only
(2) increases, only
(3) decreases, then increases
(4) increases, then decreases
2Linkuse table S, more energy levels
36 Given the balanced equation representing a reaction:
CaO(s) + CO2(g) ==>CaCO3(s) + heat
What is the total mass of CaO(s) that reacts completely with 88 grams of CO2(g) to produce 200. grams of CaCO3(s)?
(1) 56 g       (3) 112 g
(2) 88 g       (4) 288 g
3Link200g-88g= 112g

conservation of mass

37 What is the empirical formula of a compound that has a carbon-to-hydrogen ratio of 2 to 6?
(1) CH3 (3) C3H
(2) C2H6 (4) C6H2
1Linkreduce the formula

2-6

1-3

38 Given the balanced equation representing a reaction:
H2(g) + Cl2(g) ==>2HCl(g) + energy
Which statement describes the energy changes in this reaction?
(1) Energy is absorbed as bonds are formed, only.
(2) Energy is released as bonds are broken, only.
(3) Energy is absorbed as bonds are broken, and energy is released as bonds are formed.
(4) Energy is absorbed as bonds are formed, and energy is released as bonds are broken.
3Linkreleased energy is a product, right of the arrow

bonds are broken then formed

39 Which solution has the highest boiling point at standard pressure?
(1) 0.10 M KCl(aq)
(2) 0.10 M K2SO4(aq)
(3) 0.10 M K3PO4(aq)
(4) 0.10 M KNO3(aq)
3Linkvan't Hoff find the one that breaks up into the most particles

KCl-2           K2SO4-3 

K3PO4 -4     KNO3 - 2

(1) 1.3 M    (3) 3.0 M
(2) 2.0 M    (4) 0.75 M
1Link52g/26g/mol= 2 moles

2 moles/1.5L= 1..3M
