The following questions are case-based questions. Each question has an i nternal choice and carries 4 (l+ 1+ ) marks
each. Read the passage carefully and answer the questions that follow.
29. An oxidation-reduction (r edox) reaction is a type of
chemical reaction that involves a transfer of
electrons between two species. An
oxidation-reduction reaction is any chemicaJ
reaction in which the oxidation number of a
molecule, atom or ion changes by gaining or losing
an elettron. Redox reactions are common and vital
to some of the b asic functions of life, including
photosynthesis, respiration, combustion and
corrosion or rusting. The oxidation state of an
element corresponds to the number of electrons
(e-) that an atom loses, gains, or appears to use
when joining with other atoms in compounds.
The Oxidation state of an individual atom is 0. The
total oxidation state of all atoms in : a neutral
species is 0 and in an ion is equal to the ion charge.
Group 1 metals have an oxidation state of + 1 and
group 2 an oxidation s tate of + 2.
The oxidation state of fluorine is - 1 in compounds.
Hydrogen generally has an oxidation s tate of+ 1in
compounds. Oxygen generally has an oxidation
state of - 2 in compounds. In binary m etal
compounds, group 17 clements have an oxidation
state of - 1, group 16 elements of - 2 and group 1~
elements of-3. The sum of the oxidation states LS
equal to 7.ero for neutral compounds and equal to
the charge for p olyatornic ion species.
Redox reactions are comprised of tw .J parts, a
reduced half and an oxidised half, that always
occur together.

(iii) Z~ rod is immersed in cuso,. solution. What

30. A total of four quantum numbers are used to
describe completely the movement and trajectories
of each electron within an atom. Each electron in
an atom has n unique set of quantum numbers;
according to the P:mli exclusion principle, no two
electron s con shore 1he same combination of four
qunntum numbers. Quantum numbers are .
Important becnuse they can be used to detenmne
the electron conngur:nion of an atom and the
probable location of the atom's electrons.
tn atoms, there are a total of four quantum
numbers: the principal quantum number (n), the
orbital angular momentum quantum number (/),
 the magnetic quantum number (m1) and the
electron spin quantum number{ms). The principal
quantum number (n ), describes the energy of an
electron and the most probable distance of the
electron from the nucleus. In other words, it refers
to the size of the orbital and the energy level an
electron is placed in.
The size of the atom and its atomic radius
increases. Because the atomic radius increases, the
electrons are farther from the nucleus. Thus, it is
easier for the atom to expel an electron because the
nucle~s does not have as strong a pull on it and the
ionisation energy decreases. We can designate a
principal quantum number (n) and a certain
subs hell by combining the value of n and the name
of the subs hell (which can be found using (1).
The s orbital, because the value of m1 can only be 0 ,
can only exist in one plane. The p-orbital, however,
has three possible because the value of m 1 and so, it
has three possible orientations of the orbitals,

KOH to give an alkene 'B', which reacts with Br2 to
