 Section A Industrial Chemistry (Answer ALL parts of the question in answer book labeled with ‘Industrial Chemistry’.)

1.(a) A chemical R is made by reacting chemical P with chemical Q in a reversible reaction. P, Q and R are all gases
under the reaction conditions.
Research chemists wanted to know the optimal conditions to use in the manufacture of product R. They carried out
a series of identical reactions under different conditions of temperature and pressure. The percentage conversion of
reactant P at equilibrium was shown in the table below.

Pressure (atm) Temperature (C) % of P being converted

350 16

10 450 12

550 8

350 29

20 450 21
550 11

350 49
40 450 34

550 18

(i) Use the data in the above table,

1). account for the effect of increasing pressure on the percentage of reactant P being converted. (1 mark)

2). find out which is the larger one, “ the total number of moles of reactants P and Q ”
or “ the number of moles of product R ”. Explain how you reach for your conclusion. (2 marks)

(ii) Deduce, with reason, whether the reaction is exothermic or endothermic. (2 marks)

(iii) The greatest yield in the production of product R operate at 40 atm and 350 C. However, the industrial plant
operate at 20 atm and 450 C. Explain why the operating conditions are lower than the experimental one.
(2 marks)

(iv) Operating conditions employed should have a conversion of reactant P of 21%. In the manufacture, using these
conditions, it was found that only 11% conversion was achieved. However, the conversion percentage resumes
to 21% when a substance is added. What is that substance? (1 mark)

1.(b) The chloroalkali industry can provide the raw material, hydrogen, for the manufacture of methanol.

(i) With the help of a chemical equation, explain how hydrogen is produced in the chloroalkali industry. (2 marks)

(ii) Write an equation for the manufacture of methanol that consumes hydrogen. (1 mark)

(ii) The steammethane reforming is commonly used to make syngas for the production of methanol.
Suggest TWO advantages of using syngas as the raw materials to produce methanol over obtaining hydrogen
from the chloroalkali industry. (2 marks)

1.(c) Experiments were carried out to study the kinetics of the following reaction at 180C:
2 ICl(g)  H2(g)  I2(g)  2 HCl(g)   
The following results were obtained.

Initial concentration ( mol dm )

2 0.30 0.01 6.60 x 10
3 0.45 0.02 1.98 x 10

(i) Deduce the order of the reaction with respect to both ICl(g) and H2(g), and hence write the rate equation
for the reaction. (3 marks)

(ii) Calculate the rate constant, k, for the reaction at 180C. (1 mark)

(iii) Sketch a graph to show how the rate of the reaction changes with increasing concentration of ICl(g) gas. (1 mark)

(iv) The following mechanism was proposed for the reaction:

Step 1 ICl(g)  H2(g)  HI(g)  HCl(g)
Step 2 ICl(g)  HI(g)  HCl(g)  I2(g)
Based on this mechanism, sketch a labelled energy profile. (2 marks)

 Section B Analytical Chemistry (Answer ALL parts of the question in answer book labeled with ‘Analytical Chemistry’.)

2.(a) The table below shows some reactions of an organic compound A (C8H8O).

Reaction Observation

Reaction with Br2 in trichloroethane in the dark No observable change

Reaction with dinitrophenylhydrazine Yellow precipitate is formed

Explain the possible functional group(s) that may be present in compound A. (2 marks)

(b) Compound X, with relative molecular mass of 76, has the following composition by mass :
C : 31.6% H : 5.3% O : 63.1%
The infrared and mass spectra of compound X are given below.

2020DSECHEM 24
 (i) Deduce the molecular formula of compound X. (2 marks)

(ii) From the given spectral information and the molecular formula obtained in (i), deduce the structural formula
of compound X. Give also the formulae of the species corresponding to m/z of 31 and 45 in the mass spectrum.

(iii) Suggest chemical tests to confirm the functional groups present in compound X.
State clearly the reagents and conditions used and the expected observations for the tests. (4 marks)

(c) Chlorine bleach contains hypochlorite ions (OCl) as the active ingredient.
A student conducts an experiment to determine the amount of hypochlorite ions in a sample of bleaching solution and
the procedure is as follows:

Step 1: 25.0 cm3 of the bleaching solution is diluted to 250.0 cm3 with distilled water.

Step 2: 25.0 cm3 of the diluted bleaching solution is transferred into a conical flask.

Step 3: Excess amount of dilute sulphuric acid and potassium iodide solution are added to the 25.0 cm3
diluted bleaching solution.

Step 4: The mixture is then titrated with 0.100 M sodium thiosulphate solution, Na2S2O3(aq), until the end point
is reached.

(i) In step 3, when dilute sulphuric acid and potassium iodide solution are added to the bleaching solution,

(I) what will be observed?

(II) write a chemical equation for the reaction.

(III) explain why the sulphuric acid and potassium iodide must be in excess.
(3 marks)

(ii) In step 4,

(I) suggest a suitable indicator for the titration.

(II) what is the colour change at the end point of the titration?
(2 marks)

(iii) If 18.50 cm3 of the 0.100 M sodium thiosulphate is required for the titration, calculate the concentration of the
hypochlorite ions in the bleaching solution. (3 marks)
