Chapter 2: The Components of Matter
1. Kaolinite, a clay mineral with the formula Al4Si4O10(OH)8, is used as a filler in slick-
paper for magazines and as a raw material for ceramics. Analysis shows that 14.35 g of
kaolinite contains 8.009 g of oxygen. Calculate the mass percent of oxygen in kaolinite.
A) 1.792 mass % D) 34.12 mass %
B) 24.80 mass % E) 55.81 mass %
C) 30.81 mass %
Ans: E Difficulty: M
2. Compound 1 has a composition of 46.7 mass % of element A and 53.3 mass % of
element B. A and B also form a second binary compound (compound 2). If the
compositions of the two compounds are consistent with the law of multiple proportions,
which of the following compositions could be that of compound 2?
A) 23.4 mass % A 76.6 mass % B D) 53.3 mass % A 46.7 mass % B
B) 30.4 mass % A 69.6 mass % B E) 73.3 mass % A 26.7 mass % B
C) 33.3 mass % A 66.7 mass % B
Ans: B Difficulty: M
3. What are the approximate carbon:hydrogen mass ratios in methane (CH4) and ethyne
(C2H2)?

mass/charge ratio. His results showed that
A) the mass/charge ratio varied with as the cathode material was changed.
B) the charge was always a whole-number multiple of some minimum charge.

10. Rutherford bombarded gold foil with alpha () particles and found that a small
percentage of the particles were deflected. Which of the following was not accounted
for by the model he proposed for the structure of atoms?
A) the small size of the nucleus
B) the charge on the nucleus
C) the total mass of the atom
D) the existence of protons
E) the presence of electrons outside the nucleus
Ans: C Difficulty: M
