SECTION C

18 More 63Cu atoms than 65Cu atoms 1

(a) (idea of more abundant 63Cu isotope - NOT just reference to peak heights)
(i)
(ii) Electron from electron gun / high speed electron / high energy electron 1
(accept electron gun fired at)
[NOT ‘bombarded with electrons]

knock electron off (Cu atom) / idea of loss of e– / appropriate equation 1

(Mark independently)
(iii) Identity of the ion = 63Cu2+or equivalent M1
[NOT 63.0 - penalise this error once only]

Explanation for the m/e value : m/e = 63/2 (=31.5) or equivalent M2

More energy needed to remove second electron OR63Cu2+ statistically less M3

likely to remove second electron
(Idea that not many 63Cu2+ ions formed OR explains why few areformed e.g.
more energy needed)

If 63Cu not given, can only award M2 & M3

 Notes on [If 65 used, lose M1 and M2]

[If mass number missing from identity but appears inexplanation,penalise M1

but allow M2 if earned]
(b) 105° (allow 104–106°) 1
(i) 4 electron pairs round O 1
tetrahedral (or 109°) 1
2 lone pairs repel more than bonding pairs 1
So that, angle < 109° (or less than tetrahedral angle) 1
(ii) hydrogen bonding 1
F more electronegative than H, thus will pulls electrons from H 1
(iii) Prediction >105° (or increases) 1
Explanation lone pair more like bonding pair

So that,does not repel so strongly 1

(c) (CH3)3N and (CH3)2NH have simple molecular structures. 1
(i)
Between molecules (CH3)3N are van der Waals forces and hydrogen bonding 1
between molecules of (CH3)2NH

hydrogen bonds are stronger than van der Waals forces. 1

(c) In polar solvent / water, HCOOH exists as single HCOOH molecules; RMM is 1
(ii) thus 46

In a non-polar solvent / benzene, two HCOOH molecules bond with each other 1
by hydrogen bond (to form dimer).
