ANSWER Elements are arranged in increasing atomic number from left to right/horizontally. Period 4 Group 1 M E The nuclei attraction towards the valence electron is weaker in E Thus, it is easier for E to lose electron/release electron to form positively charged ion J Group 18 elements are chemically unreactive / inert chemically 2.8.2 Q and T Forces of attraction between nucleus and valence electron in atom S is higher than those in atom R Thus, atomic radius of atom S is less than atomic radius of atom R

Sodium Hydroxide Hydrogen X Burning splint Red to blue Blue to blue/colorless 2 Na + 2 H2O 2 N OH + H2 SECTION B Aluminium ion = 2.8 Oxygen ion = 2.8 Noble gas This is because all elements in group 18 are stable and chemically unreactive The physical properties of elements in group 18: When down the group: Atomic radius increase When proton number increase, number of electron increase. Thus more shells are needed to fill in the electrons. When atomic size increase, forces of attraction between atoms is stronger. Thus more energy needed to overcome these forces. Atomic mass increase faster than the increase in atomic size Absence of mobile electrons since noble gases are stable

ANSWER P1 Relative atomic mass of an element is the number of times the mass of an atom is greater than 1/12 of the mass of a carbon-12 atom. P2 The relative mass of a carbon-12 atom is 12.000 P1 One mol is the quantity of a substance which contains the number of particles similar to the one found in 12.000 of carbon-12. P2 The number of particles forms a constant number called the Avogadro constant, NA, which is 6.02x1023 P1 Molar mass is the mass of a substance with 1 mol of particles P2 For example, molar mass of aluminium, Al, is 27g P1 Molar volume of a gas is the volume of 1 mol of gas under certain conditions P2 1 mol of any gas occupies 22.4dm3 at standard temperature and pressure (s.t.p). At room conditions, the volume of 1 mol of any gas is 24dm3. - No of moles of oxygen = 16/2(16) = 0.5 mol - Volume of oxygen = 0.5 x 24 = 12 dm3 - No of moles of carbon dioxide = 22/[12+2(16)] = 0.5 mol - Volume of carbon dioxide = 0.5 x 24 = 12 dm3 The volume of the two gases are the same because at the same temperature and atmospheric pressure, all gases occupy the same amount of volume Elements Mass No of moles Simplest ratio Carbon 0.48g 0.48/12 =0.04 0.04/0.01=4 Hydrogen 0.05g 0.05/1=0.05 0.05/0.01=5 Nitrogen 0.28g 0.28/14=0.02 0.02/0.01=2 Oxygen 0.16g 0.16/16=0.01 0.01/0.01=1

QUESTION c i ii d

ANSWER Substance P. Substance P has boiling point higher than melting point of naphthalene. Naphthalene is flammable and easily explodes when directly burned. From time t1 and t2, the naphthalene exists as liquid. The arrangement of its particles packed closely together but not in an orderly arrangement. As the temperature falls, the naphthalene molecules lose heat energy. Their movement slows down and they move closer to each other. At t2, the substance still in liquid state. The particles have very little energy and begin to move closer towards one another as it starts to freeze into solid. At t2 to t3, the naphthalene changes it state to solid form. Particles start to rearrange and packed closely together in an orderly manner. Naphthalene exists as both solid and liquid. The temperature remains constant until all the liquid changes to solid. This is because the energy released is the same as the energy lost to the surroundings during cooling. This constant temperature is the freezing point. At t3, all the liquid freezes into solid. The particles are now closely packed in an orderly manner. At t3 to t4, the naphthalene is now in solid state. The temperature falls again until it reaches room temperature. This because it lose heat energy and vibrate slower.
