5. Gallium (Ga) consists of two naturally occurring isotopes with masses of 68.926 amu and
70.926 amu. Calculate the abundance of each isotope. The average atomic mass of Ga is
69.726 amu.

9. Combustion analysis of toluene, a common organic solvent, produces 5.86 mg of CO 2 and
1.37 mg of H2O. If the compound contains only carbon and hydrogen, what is its
molecular formula? Its molecular mass is 92 g/ mol.
12. In a certain experiment 2.50 g of NH3 reacts with 2.85 g of O2: 4NH3 + 5O2 4NO +
6H2O. Which reactant is the limiting reactant? How many grams of NO form? How much
excess reactant remains after the liming reactant is completely consumed?
13. Given 30.0 g benzene and 65.0 g bromine in the following reaction:
C6H6 + Br2 C6H5Br + HBr
If the actual yield of C6H5Br, bromobenzene, is 56.7 g, what is the percentage yield?

4. Percentage compositions:
a) benzoic acid, C7H6O2 mol wt. is:
7(12) + 6(1) + 2(16) = 84 + 6 + 32 = 122g
%comp. C (84/122) x 100 = 68.85%, H => (6/122) x 100 = 4.92%
O (32/122) x 100 = 26.23%
5. Let x be the fractional abundance of isotope 70.926-Ga. Then:
69.726 = 70.926x + 68.926(1-x) x = 0.8000/2 = 0.4000
% abundance of isotope 70.926 is 0.4000(100) = 40%
% abundance of isotope 68.926 is 60%.
6. (a) 0.005g H2O 1mole H2O = 2.77 x 10-4 mole = 3 x 10-4 mole
18gH2O

Divide smallest mole number into each calculated mole:
(c) NH3 is excess reactant. How much? 0.147mole (4/5)(0.089mole)= 0.147 0.071= 0.076
mole = 17g(0.076mol) = 1.29 grams excess NH3.
13. C6H6 + Br2 C6H5Br + HBr (30g benzene, 65g bromine gas)
C6H6 mol wt. is 78g; Br2 mol wt. is 160g; C6H5Br mol wt. is 157g
produce 60.38g of bromobenzene for a 100% yield. But since only 56.7g was
