Table
CT – award 1 mk for three titrations
- Award ½ mk for only two titrations done
- Award 0mk for only one titration done
D.P -1 mk
Accuracy - 1 mk
+ 0.2cm 3 award ½ mk
+ 0.1cm 3 award 1mk
Total = 3mks

a) Average volume of solution Q = 20.0cm3 (1mk)

b) i) Moles of solution Q used
20 x 0.125 = 0.0025 moles (1mk)
1000 (1mk)

ii) Na2CO3(s) + 2HCL(aq) → 2Nacl(aq) + CO2(g) + H2O(l) (1mk)

iii) Moles of Na2CO3 in 25cm3 of solution T

½ x 0.0025 = 0.00125 moles
(1mk) (1mk)

iv) Moles of Na2CO3 in 100cm3 of solution T

25cm3 → 0.00125 moles
Then 100cm3 = 0.000125 x 100 = 0.005 moles (1mk)
25 (1mk)

v) Moles of Na2CO3 in 50cm3 of the original solution P.

0.005 moles → 50cm3 of T
→ 250cm 3
250 x 0.005 = 0.025 moles
100 0.0125 mols
(1mk) (1mk)

c) i) Mass of Na2CO3 N grammes

= 0.0125 x 106g
= 2.65 (1mk)

ii) Concentration of Na2CO3 in solution P.

2.65g→ 250cm3
? →1000cm 3
2.65 x 1000 = 10.6g/ litre (1mk)
250
Molarity = 10.6 = 0.1M (1mk)

a) Graph of temperature against volume of sulphuric (VI) acid added during neutralization reaction.
Labeled axis with units - 1mk
Plotting - 1mk
Shape - 1 mk
Total - 3mks

b) Temperature change = 13.0oc (1/2 mk)

c) Volume of H2SO4 required for neutralization 40cm3 (1/2 mk)
d) Molar heat of neutralization
Heat change = MCѲ
= (50 + 40) x 42 x 13 J (1/2 mk)
= 90 x 42 x 13J
=4914J (1mk)
Moles of H2SO4 = 0.5 x 40 = 0.02 moles (1/2 mk)
= 0.02 moles → -4914J
= 1 mole → -4.914 = 245.7KJ/mol
0.02 (1/2 mk)
