4. Give the salient features of “Modern atomic theory”.
Modern Atomic Theory:
- An atom is no longer indivisible (after the discovery of the electron, proton and neutron).
- Atoms of the same element may have different atomic mass (discovery of Isotopes 17Cl35, 17Cl37
- Atoms of different elements may have same atomic masses (discovery of Isobars 20Ar40, 20Ca40).
- Atoms of one element can be transmuted into atoms of other elements. In otherwords, atom is no longer indestructible (discovery of artificial transmutation).
- Atoms may not always combine in a simple whole number ratio (Eg. Glucose C6H12O6 C:H:O = 6:12:6 or 1:2:1 and Sucrose C12H22O11 C:H:O = 12:22:11).
- Atom is the smallest particle that take part in a chemical reaction.
- The mass of an atom can be converted into energy (E=MC2).

2. Calculate the % of each element in calcium carbonate. (Atomic mass: C-12, O-16, Ca -40)
CaCO3.
Molar Mass of CaCO3 | = 1 (Ca) + 1 (C) + 3 (O) |
= 1 (40) + 1 (12) + 3 (16) | |
= 40 + 12 + 48 = 100 g. | |
% of Ca in CaCO3 | = Mass of Ca / Molar Mass of CaCO3 x 100 |

% of O in Al2(SO4)3
| = 3×4×16 / 342 × 100 = 192/342 × 100 = 56.14% |
4. Calculate the % relative abundance of B-10 and B-11, if its average atomic mass is 10.804 amu
Let 𝑎1, 𝑎2 be the % abundance of B-10 and B-11 respectively.
Mass of B-10, m1 | = 10 |
Mass of B-11, m2 | = 11 |
𝑎1+𝑎2 | = 100 |
𝑎1 | = 100 − 𝑎2 |
Average Atomic Mass of B | = 10.804 amu |
Average Atomic Mass | = m1 × a1 /100 + m2 ×a1/100 |
= 10 × (100−𝑎2)/100 + 11 x 𝑎2/100 | |
= 10 − 10𝑎2/100 + 11𝑎2/100 | |
10.804 | = 10 + 𝑎2/100 |
𝑎2/100 | =10.804 – 10 = 0.804 |
𝑎2 | = 0.804 × 100 = 80.4 % |
𝑎1 | = 100 − 80.4 = 19.6 % |
∴ % abundance of B-10 | = 19.6 % |
% abundance of B-11 | = 80.4% |
