Aqueous sodium sulfate is used to prepare barium sulfate in a precipitation

reaction. Reactant: barium nitrate & sodium sulfate

Conc= mol/vol C= 0.55 mol/dm3
Mole= mass/mr (a) Calculate the maximum mass of barium sulfate that could be made.

[Mr: BaSO4, 233] Notice that the reactant : product is 1:1 mole ratio? Therefore the
Show your working. calculation is direct. No need to find which one is the limiting reagent.

Mole = c x v = 0.55 mol/dm3 x 0.02 dm3

Mole= 0.011 mol

Mass is therefore, mass= mole x Mr = 0.011 mol x 233 g/mol = 2.563 g = 2.56 g (3.s.f)

Maximum mass of barium sulfate = ________2_._56__________ g [2]
2.563 g (Make sure to use the real long value!!) is the theoretical amount. Meaning, if the reaction went perfectly 100
% well in the lab. But reality is not the 100 % perfect. That’s why we got 1.92 g instead.

(b) A mass of 1.92 g of dry barium sulfate is obtained.

Calculate the percentage yield of barium sulfate.

% yield= ( 1.92 g / 2.563 g ) x 100 = 74.9122 % = 74.9 %

(b) An excess of copper is added to 25.0 cm3 of 16.0 mol/dm3 HNO3.

Use this information, together with the equation, to calculate the volume of

NO2 formed. The gas volume is measured at room temperature and pressure.

Show your working and state the units. STEP 3: Volume of NO2= mole x 24 dm3

STEP 1: Find mole of HNO3 V (NO2): 4.8 dm3
v= 25.0 cm3 / 1000 = 0.025 dm3
C= 16 mol/dm3.
Since c= n/v, therefore n (HNO3) = c x v
n (HNO3) = 16 mol/dm3 x 0.025 dm3
n (HNO3) = 0.4 mol.

STEP 2: Find mole of NO2 using mole ratio

(c) When heated, Cu(NO3)2 decomposes to form CuO, NO2 and O2.

Construct the symbol equation for this reaction.

Cu= 1 [Tota:5]

N= 2

O= 6

How to balance?

1. Deal with the O on the LHS. Notice its 1+2+2 on the RHS? So add no. 2 infront

of CuO

2. Once you add the no. 2 on the RHS, you also add 2 infront of Cu(NO3)2

recount the no. of elements on the LHS.

You will get:

Cu=2

N=4

O=12.

3. Proceed to deal with the RHS. So add no. 4 infront of NO2. And you’re done.

Increasing pressure will favour the side with LESS moles.

3. Chlorine, bromine and iodine are non-metals in Group VII of the Periodic Table. [1]

Their molecules are diatomic.

(ii) In what physical state do the following elements exists at room

temperature and pressure? [2]

Bromine __l_iq_u_id______________________________________________
Iodine ____s_o_li_d______________________________________________

Concentration so, c (HCl)= 0.015 mol/dm3
(c) An aqueous solution of calcium hydroxide was titrated with 0.0150 mol/dm3

hydrochloric acid.

Ca(OH)2 + 2HCl CaCl2 + 2H2O

It required 6.00 cm3 of this aqueous hydrochloric acid to neutralise 20.0 cm3 of

the calcium hydroxide solution. V (HCl)= 6 cm3 & V (Ca(OH)2)= 20 cm3 VERY important.
Calculate the concentration in mol/dm3, of the calcium hydroxide solution.
Notice the unit of volume
STEP 1: Write down all the known values given is cm3? Yet in the
concentration given is dm3?
Ca(OH)2 HCl You need to convert cm3 to
c? c 0.015 mol/dm3 dm3 by dividing it with
n? n?
v 20 cm3 ÷ 1000= 0.02 dm3 v 6 cm3 ÷ 1000 = 0.006 dm3 10000.

STEP 2: Calculate the mole of HCl
n(HCl) = c x v
= 0.015 mol/dm3 x 0.006 dm3
=0.00009 mol [1 MARK]

STEP 3: Using mole ratio, calculate the
mole of Ca(OH)2

Ca(OH)2 : HCl [3]
1: 2

? : 0.00009 [Total: 7]
n( Ca(OH)2 ) = 0.00009 mol / 2 = 0.000045 mol [1 MARK]

STEP 4: Use the formula to calculate the concentration of Ca(OH)2
C( Ca(OH)2 ) = n/v = 0.000045 mol / 0.02 dm3 = 0.00225 mol/dm3 [ 1 MARK]

4. Diamond and graphite are two forms of carbon. Diamond and graphite are the allotropes
of carbon. Allotropy is the existence of an
element in two or more different forms in
the same physical state.

Weak intermolecular forces

-In diamond, the atoms are arranged tetrahedrally and in graphite, the atoms are arranged in layers
-In diamond, there is NO delocalised electrons and in graphite, graphite HAS delocalised electrons.
(a) (i) Describe two differences in the structure of diamond and graphite.

(ii) Explain, in terms of their structure, why graphite is soft but diamond is
hard.

__________________________________________________________ [2]

Graphite is soft because in graphite, the LAYERS can SLIDE due to WEAK FORCES between the layers. See your notes Topic 6

Diamond is hard because there is strong COVALENT bonding in ALL DIRECTIONS. Chemical reaction

(b) Tin is extracted by heating tin (IV) oxide, SnO2, with carbon in a furnace. (part 4) redox

NOTE: Reduction involves SnO2 + 2C Sn + 2CO

(i) loss of oxygen (ii) gain

in electron (iii) decrease
in oxidation number (i) How does this equation shows that tin (IV) oxide gets reduced?

This is already a hint. Meaning, in the overlap
they have 6 e-

(ii) Carbon monoxide has a triple covalent bond.
Draw the electronic structure of carbon monoxide. Show only the outer
electrons. This makes the dot-and-cross diagram simpler since you just look at the Group no.
which tells us the no. of valence electron (aka the outer shell electron)

KEY: electron

(iii) Carbon monoxide reacts with chromium to form chromium carbonyl.
The structure of chromium carbonyl is shown below.

This is a simple question asking you to first count
the number of each elements and then simplify it
(empirical formula).

There are times where you will be asked to do
Empirical calculations where the percentage
masses of each elements are given. But this
question is not that one. Its much simpler.

Write the empirical formula for chromium carbonyl.
____Cr_C_6_O_6_. _A_LL_O_W__:_C_r(_C_O_)_6 _____________________________________ [1]

Cr= 1 You cannot simplify the rest because Cr=1. [Total: 8]
C= 6 Hence, this is the empirical formula
O=6

Carbon is a reference for extraction. (Meaning only the elements 9
BELOW carbon can be EXTRACTED by using “carbon reduction”). How

to remember where Carbon is? The expensive LAPTOP, MAC BOOK.

5. Magnesium is a reactive metal. Remember, the reactivity series: PoSoCaMA(C)ZIL(H)CopSiGo

(a) Name the products formed when magnesium reacts with steam.

_M__a_gn_e_s_iu_m__o_x_id_e_a_n_d__h_yd_r_o_g_e_n______________________________________ [1]

Mg to Fe react with steam to form metal oxide & H2. Pb downwards no reaction.
(b) The equation shows the reaction which occurs when magnesium carbonate is

heated. “Carbonate” will always produce carbon

MgCO3 MgO +CO2 dioxide gas. Carbonate comes from
‘carbon’ and ‘ate’ which is oxygen.

This is a common question and you need to notice that there is only ONE reactant, which is being BROKEN DOWN into two or

more product. State the name given to this type of chemical reaction.

___d_ec_o_m__p_os_i_ti_o_n_________________________________________________ [1]

(c) A student compared the action of heat on three solid metal carbonates.
She heated each carbonate using the apparatus shown below. In each case,
she recorded the length of time taken for the limewater to turn milky.

The test for CO2 gas is using limewater. Limewater
turns milky.

(i) State one factor that must be kept constant if the speeds of reaction are

to be compared in a fair way.
