"He found himself on a desolate plain."

It's not grammar, but spelling. The term plane can mean a flat surface or level, while the noun plain (plains) refers to a flat landscape. And it's not likely that an airplanewould be described as desolate, although it might seem empty without passengers.

Which word is wrong 'A packet of chips were found on the bench'.?

Packet is singular, so a packet was found on the bench, because the subject and verb have to agree in number (both singular, or both plural). Therefore, the word were is wrong. It would be correct to say "Some chips were found on the bench", because then you have agreement between the plural chips and verb were.
