Q1.
Matthew measured the pH of different soils.

(a) Tick one box in each row to show if each soil is acidic, neutral or alkaline.

soil pH of soil acidic neutral alkaline

A 4.5

B 5.5

C 6.3

D 7.0

E 7.8

(b) A hydrangea is a flowering plant. Matthew notices that the

colour of hydrangea flowers is different for plants grown in
different places.

He records the colour of the flowers on each plant.

His results are shown in the table below.

colour of flowers
pH
soil

blue violet light pink dark pink

A 4.5

B 5.5

C 6.3

D 7.0

E 7.8

Look at Matthew’s results.

Do his results support the statement that the colour of hydrangea flowers depends
on pH?

(d) Matthew wants to find out if the colour of blue hydrangea flowers depends on
inherited factors or environmental factors.
The flowers were growing in soil of pH 4.5.
He plants them in soil of pH 6.3.

Complete the table below to show the colours of the new flowers in soil of pH 6.3
(i) if the colour is due to inheritance
(ii) if the colour is due to the environment

Use the table above to complete the table below.

(b) In experiment 1, Molly put two beakers on a balance.

One contained 20 cm3 of hydrochloric acid.
The other contained 20 cm3 of sodium hydroxide solution.
The total mass was 163.5 g.

She poured the acid onto the sodium hydroxide. They reacted.

Why did the reading on the balance not change?
