Chemistry mock exam paper ( Chareen’s )

(1) Use gases from the box to answer these questions. Each gas
may be used once, more than once or not at all.

(a) II) Hydrogen have only one covalent bond while oxygen has 2 (
1 pi bond and one sigma bond)
IV) CO is a toxic gas and also CO is a colourless, odorless and water
insoluble gas. It is a power reducing agent. Hence, it is used in the
extraction of metals from their oxide's ores.

Lewis structure of Dot and cross structure of O2

(a) Ascorbic acid is pH is 2 so, if taken with food will slightly raise
the stomach's pH level. Ascorbate forms of vitamin C, which
average pH 7 to 8, in high dose are best taken after meals so as
not to dilute stomach acid.

(II)

In the Volumetrics flask as sodium hydroxide is present. The initial

colour of the solution would be yellow. But due to the addition of an
acid the solution is becoming acidic. At the endpoint. All the sodium
hydroxide molecules have completed reacted .Therefore, the solution
inside the volumetrics flask will be acidic. The colour change of Yellow
to pink will occur at the endpoint.
(c) The student does the experiment four times. The table shows his
results.

Volume in cm³ of acid added

21.80

21.50

21.35

21.40

Concordant results First of all, choose

one measurement as the standard and then find out the difference
between the standard. Measurement and the other measurement. Then
we have to cheque if the difference is 0.2 or less. It cannot be more than
0.2, that is why 21.80 is not the. Concordant results.

(1) Place ticks in the table to show which results are concordant within
0.2 cm³

The method you have followed for the next version is right, you have to
add the measurements and divide it by the number of measurements to
find the average. But it is wrong due to including 21.80 measurement
which is not a concordant measurement.

Part c second question.

When answering a question like this first of all. Highlight all the
measurements, such as the concentrations and the volume with their
respective name. In structure paper like this, it's better to underline them
the first time you're reading the question.

(b) A student is provided with a solution of sodium hydroxide, NaOH,

and a solution of 0.02 mol/dm³ ascorbic acid. She does a titration to find
the volume of the ascorbic acid that reacts with 25.0 cm' of the sodium
hydroxide.
Another student repeated the experiment and obtained a mean volume of
21.30 cm for ascorbic acid. Calculate the concentration, in mol/dm³, of
the sodium hydroxide solution.

Number of moles of ascorbic acid reacted. = 0.02 moldm-3 x 21.30

(cm3 to dm3 conversion

is important.)
= 4.26 x 10-4 mol
 From the chemical equation, we can observe that the same amount of
ascorbic acid reacted as the amount of sodium hydroxide. Therefore, the
number of modes of sodium hydroxide reacted would be 4.26 into 10 to
power minus four moles. As we have 25 cubic centimetre of volume
now, we can easily find the concentration of sodium hydroxide.

Concentration of NaOH= 4.26 x 10-4 mol

25x 10-3 dm3
= 0.1704 moldm-3.

3 (d) (I)
2H+ + 2e H2 (g)

(II) Answer to this question, I will give next week.

phenolphthalein consist of colourless in acidic media an pink
in alkaline medium. The ions in the solution are hydrogen
plus hydroxide ion and sulphate ion. To the positive electrode
hydroxide iron and sulphate ion will travel and to the
negative electrode hydrogen plus ions will travel.

(4) (II) When there is an increase in pressure, the equilibrium

will shift towards the side of the reaction with fewer moles of

gas. When there is a decrease in pressure, the

 equilibrium will shift towards the side of the reaction

with more moles of gas.

PC13(g) + Cl2(g) PCl5(g)\

In the left side there are two moles of gases while there is
only one mole of gas in the right side. Hence upon decrease
of pressure the point of equilibrium will shift to the left side.
The backward reaction is more favourable

Lithium donates one electron to attain the noble gas(helium)

configuration. At same time chlorine needs one electron to attain noble
gas(argon) configuration. Chlorine pulls one electron from lithium.

Lithium is in first group so it has one valence electron While chlorine

has 7 valence electrons. Therefore, in order to achieve Nobel electronic
configuration lithium will donate its valence electron while chlorine
will accept that electron and reach 8 valence electrons leading it to have
Nobel electronic configuration.
