Steel nail Metal T wire Sodium nitrate solution+ a little potassium hexacyanoferrate solution
Observation after No dark blue colour. Dark blue colour formed. two days Steel nail does not rust. Steel nail rusts. Table 1 A student carried out two experiments to investigate the effect of metals R and T towards rusting. The observations obtained are shown in Table 1. Compare both experiments and explain the observations. (6m)
Answers: (a) A process of changing metal atoms into their positive ions by losing of electrons in the presence of air(oxygen), electrolyte and water, and metals that are less electropositive than the metal that corrode. (2m) (b)i. Water droplet Cathode
iron
O 2 (g) + 2H 2 O(l) + 4e - → 4OH Anode
Fe(s) → Fe 2 + (aq) + 2e
(2m) ii. Steel rusts in the presence of water and air. (2m) iii.- The air layer at the edge of the water droplet is thinner than the center causing the concentration of dissolved oxygen higher at the edge. (1m) - The edge of the water droplet acts as cathode and the center of the water droplet acts as anode. - At anode : Fe(s) → Fe 2 + (aq) + 2e (1m) 2+ Iron metal corrodes to form Fe ion through oxidation by losing electron. (1m) - The electron released at anode flows to cathode. (1m) - The water and oxygen molecule receive electron and produce OH − ion by reduction. (1m) - At cathode: O 2 (g) + 2H 2 O(l) + 4e → 4OH (aq) (1m) − 2+ - OH ion combines with Fe ion to form iron(II) hydroxide which is a green solid. (1m) - Then iron(II) hydroxide is oxidised by oxygen in the air to hydrated iron(III) oxide ( Fe 2 O 3 .2H 2 O ) or rust. Fe(OH) 2 (s) Oxidised → Fe 2 O 3 .2H 2 O(s) (1m) rust
(c) In experiment I, metal R is more electropositive than steel. - This causes metal R corrode through oxidation by losing electron to become metal R ion. (1m) - Therefore, the steel nail will be protected from corroding. (1m) - Hence iron(II) ion will not be produced and steel will not rust. (1m) - In experiment II, steel is more electropositive than metal T. (1m) - This causes steel nail corrode through oxidation by releasing electron to become iron(II) ion. (1m) - Iron(II) ion react with potassium hexacyanoferrate(III) to produce dark blue precipitate and changed to rust by the air. (1m) - Metal T is protected from corrosion. (1m) Maximum: 6 marks

(6m) 3 −3 (c) 5.0 g of zinc powder is left to react with 50 cm of 0.2 mol dm sulphuric acid. Calculate the maximum volume of hydrogen gas produced? [Relative atomic mass: Zn,65; Molar volume of gas: 24 dm 3 mol -1 at room condition] (4m)
Answers: (a) The method of preparation of soluble salt by acid : - Reaction between acid and alkali. (1m) Example: The reaction between hydrochloric acid and sodium hydroxide produces sodium chloride solution. - HCl(aq) + NaOH(aq) → NaCl(aq) + H 2 O(l) (1m) - Reaction between acid and metal oxide. (1m) Example: The reaction between copper(II) oxide and sulphuric acid to produce copper sulphate solution. CuO(s) + H 2 SO 4 (aq) → CuSO 4 (aq) + H 2 O(l) (1m) - Reaction between acid and reactive metal. (1m) Example: The reaction between zinc and sulphuric acid produces zinc sulphate solution. - Zn(s) + H 2 SO 4 (aq) → ZnSO 4 (aq) + H 2 (g) (1m) - Reaction between acid and metal carbonate. (1m) Example: The reaction between nitric acid and copper carbonate produces copper(II) nitrate salt. - 2HNO 3 (aq) + CuCO 3 (aq) → Cu(NO 3 ) 2 (aq) + CO 2 (g) + H 2 O(l) (1m) (b)i.- The pH value represents the acidity strength for any acidic solution that is closely + related to the concentration of H + ion or hydroxonium ion, H 3 O which exist in solution. (1m) + - The concentration of H ion depends on the degree of ionisation of acid when dissolves in water. (1m) ii.- Dilute hydrochloric acid is a strong acid which has a complete ionisation in water when dissolves in water. (1m) + - This is because the HCl molecule will dissociate completely to form H and Cl − ions. HCl(aq) → H + (aq) + Cl - (aq) (1m) - Therefore, the concentration of H + ion in HCl solution is higher and the pH value is low. (1m) + - Ethanoic acid is a weak acid that ionises partially to produce H ions and its anions. (1m) - This causes the pH value for weak acid is high. (1m) - Strong acid has a lower pH value than weak acid because it has a higher concentration of H + ion than the concentration of H + ion in weak acid of the same concentration. (1m) (c)- Zn(s) + H 2 SO 4 (aq) → ZnSO 4 (aq) + H 2 (g) (1m) - Number of moles of H 2 SO 4 reacted MV 50 × 0.2 = = = 0.01 mole (1m) 1000 1000 - From the equation, 1 mole of sulphuric acid reacted will release hydrogen gas of 0.01 x 24 dm 3 =0.24 dm 3 (1m)

(10m)
Answers: (a) Heat of neutralisation is the heat released when one mole of H + ion from the acid neutralises one mole of OH − ion from the alkali to form one mole of water. (1m) (b)- Figure 2(a) is an exothermic reaction that releases heat. (1m) - Heat is released during the formation of bond. (1m) - The total energy released depends on the strength of bond (1m) - In an exothermic reaction, the total energy released for the formation of bond is higher than the total energy absorbed for the breaking of bond. (1m) - Hence heat is released to the surrounding. (1m) - Figure 2(b) is an endothermic reaction that absorbs heat. (1m) - Heat is absorbed during the breaking of bond (1m) -In an endothermic reaction, the total energy absorbed for the breaking of bond is higher than total energy released for the formation of bond.
