(1. On the second floor of Kent Laboratory a chemistry student in 111B finds
that 15.20 g of nitrogen will react with 17.37 g, 34.74 g, or 43.43 g of
oxygen to form three different compounds: (a) Calculate the ratio of the
mass of oxygen to the mass of nitrogen for each compound and (b) Explain
briefly how the numbers in part (a) support the atomic theory.
Why was it necessary for separation techniques and methodsof chemical analysis to be developed before the laws of definitecomposition and multiple proportions could be formulated?
2.) Suppose you're attempting to measure the density of a liquid that is highly volatile (it evaporates
quickly). If you first measure the volume and then several minutes later you measure the mass of the
liquid will the measured density be higher than the true value, lower than the true value, or the true
density of the liquid. [It helps to understand this problem with the density equation.]
