10 cm³ of a gaseous hydrocarbon, \(C_xH_y\), was exploded with 100 cm³ of oxygen (an excess). After cooling to room temperature, the residual gas volume was 85 cm³. On passing this residual gas through aqueous potassium hydroxide, the volume decreased to 55 cm³. What is the molecular formula of the hydrocarbon?

D.C4H10
查看答案詳解收起答案詳解
解題
1. Analyze the residual gas components: After cooling to room temperature, the water vapor condenses to liquid of negligible volume. Thus, the 85 cm³ of residual gas consists of excess \(O_2\) and produced \(CO_2\). 2. Carbon dioxide absorption: Passing the gas through aqueous KOH absorbs \(CO_2\). The decrease in volume is the volume of \(CO_2\) produced: \(85 \text{ cm}^3 - 55 \text{ cm}^3 = 30 \text{ cm}^3\). 3. Excess oxygen: The remaining 55 cm³ of gas is the unreacted excess \(O_2\). 4. Reacted oxygen: The volume of \(O_2\) consumed during combustion is \(100 \text{ cm}^3 - 55 \text{ cm}^3 = 45 \text{ cm}^3\). 5. Stoichiometric ratio: The combustion equation of a hydrocarbon is: \(C_xH_y + (x + \frac{y}{4}) O_2 \rightarrow x CO_2 + \frac{y}{2} H_2O\) Ratio of hydrocarbon to \(CO_2\) = \(10 : 30 = 1 : 3\), so \(x = 3\). Ratio of hydrocarbon to reacted \(O_2\) = \(10 : 45 = 1 : 4.5\), so \(x + \frac{y}{4} = 4.5\). Substituting \(x = 3\) gives \(3 + \frac{y}{4} = 4.5 \Rightarrow \frac{y}{4} = 1.5 \Rightarrow y = 6\). Therefore, the formula is \(C_3H_6\).

查看答案詳解收起答案詳解
解題
1. Calculate the mass of water of crystallisation lost: \(4.93 \text{ g} - 2.41 \text{ g} = 2.52 \text{ g}\). 2. Calculate the molar mass of anhydrous \(MgSO_4\): \(M_r = 24.3 + 32.1 + (4 \times 16.0) = 120.4 \text{ g mol}^{-1}\). 3. Calculate the number of moles of anhydrous \(MgSO_4\): \(n(MgSO_4) = \frac{2.41 \text{ g}}{120.4 \text{ g mol}^{-1}} \approx 0.0200 \text{ mol}\). 4. Calculate the molar mass of \(H_2O\): \(M_r = (2 \times 1.0) + 16.0 = 18.0 \text{ g mol}^{-1}\). 5. Calculate the number of moles of water lost: \(n(H_2O) = \frac{2.52 \text{ g}}{18.0 \text{ g mol}^{-1}} = 0.1400 \text{ mol}\). 6. Find the mole ratio: \(x = \frac{n(H_2O)}{n(MgSO_4)} = \frac{0.1400}{0.0200} = 7\). Thus, the formula is \(MgSO_4 \cdot 7H_2O\).

Which statement best explains why the first ionisation energy of sulfur is lower than that of phosphorus?
A.Sulfur has a greater nuclear charge, which increases the shielding effect of the inner shell electrons.
B.The outermost electron in a sulfur atom is in a 3p orbital, whereas in phosphorus it is in a 3s orbital.
C.The sulfur atom has spin-paired electrons in one of its 3p orbitals, resulting in inter-electron repulsion.
D.Phosphorus has a stable half-filled 3p subshell, and its nuclear charge is larger than that of sulfur.
查看答案詳解收起答案詳解
解題
The electronic configurations of phosphorus and sulfur are: - P: \(1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 3s^2 3p^3\) - S: \(1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 3s^2 3p^4\)
In phosphorus, the 3p subshell is half-filled with one electron in each of the three 3p orbitals (no pairing). In sulfur, there are four electrons in the 3p subshell, meaning one of the 3p orbitals contains a pair of spin-paired electrons. The repulsion between these two paired electrons in the same orbital makes it easier to remove the outer electron from sulfur, resulting in a lower first ionisation energy than phosphorus.

C.2 and 3 only
D.4 only
查看答案詳解收起答案詳解
解題
1. \(Na_2O\) reacts with water to form strongly alkaline sodium hydroxide (pH around 13-14). 2. \(Al_2O_3\) is insoluble in water and does not react or dissolve, so the water's pH remains close to 7 (neutral). 3. \(P_4O_{10}\) reacts vigorously with water to form phosphoric(V) acid, \(H_3PO_4\), which is a moderately strong acid. In this concentration, the pH is well below 3. 4. \(SO_3\) reacts violently with water to form sulfuric(VI) acid, \(H_2SO_4\), which is a strong acid that completely dissociates, giving a pH far below 3. Therefore, only 3 and 4 yield solutions with pH < 3.

解題
1. Calculate temperature rise: \(\Delta T = 28.2 - 21.5 = 6.7 \text{ °C} = 6.7 \text{ K}\). 2. Calculate the total mass of the mixture: \(m = 50.0 \text{ cm}^3 + 50.0 \text{ cm}^3 = 100.0 \text{ cm}^3 \rightarrow 100.0 \text{ g}\) (since density is 1.00 g cm⁻³). 3. Calculate heat released: \(q = m c \Delta T = 100.0 \text{ g} \times 4.18 \text{ J g}^{-1} \text{ K}^{-1} \times 6.7 \text{ K} = 2800.6 \text{ J} = 2.801 \text{ kJ}\). 4. Calculate the moles of water formed during neutralisation: \(n(H^+) = c \times V = 1.00 \text{ mol dm}^{-3} \times 0.0500 \text{ dm}^3 = 0.0500 \text{ mol}\). 5. Calculate standard enthalpy change of neutralisation per mole of water formed: \(\Delta H_{neut} = -\frac{q}{n} = -\frac{2.801 \text{ kJ}}{0.0500 \text{ mol}} = -56.02 \text{ kJ mol}^{-1}\) (exothermic, so negative). Thus, \(\Delta H_{neut} = -56.0 \text{ kJ mol}^{-1}\).

解題
1. The equilibrium constant, \(K_c\), of a reaction is only altered by a change in temperature. 2. The forward reaction is exothermic (\(\Delta H = -197 \text{ kJ mol}^{-1}\)). 3. According to Le Chatelier's principle, lowering the temperature will shift the equilibrium position to the right (the exothermic direction) to release heat and counteract the change. 4. Shifting to the right increases the equilibrium concentration of the products and decreases that of the reactants, which increases the value of \(K_c\).

A.\(2.40\text{ dm}^3\)
B.\(4.80\text{ dm}^3\)
C.\(1.20\text{ dm}^3\)
D.\(0.24\text{ dm}^3\)
查看答案詳解收起答案詳解
解題
Upon heating strongly, calcium carbonate decomposes according to the equation: \(\text{CaCO}_3(s) \rightarrow \text{CaO}(s) + \text{CO}_2(g)\) Therefore, \(0.10\text{ mol}\) of \(\text{CaCO}_3\) produces \(0.10\text{ mol}\) of \(\text{CO}_2\) gas. Sodium carbonate, \(\text{Na}_2\text{CO}_3\), is thermally stable at these temperatures and does not decompose. Thus, the total volume of gas released is: \(0.10\text{ mol} \times 24.0\text{ dm}^3\text{ mol}^{-1} = 2.40\text{ dm}^3\).
評分準則
1 mark for identifying that only calcium carbonate decomposes, calculating the moles of gas as 0.10 mol, and converting this to a volume of 2.40 dm³.

A.Silicon has the highest electrical conductivity of all the elements in Period 3 because of its giant covalent structure.
B.The melting points of the elements decrease continuously from sodium to argon across Period 3.
C.Phosphorus exists as \(\text{P}_4\) molecules and has a higher melting point than sulfur, which exists as \(\text{S}_8\) molecules.
D.Chlorine has a lower boiling point than sulfur because chlorine molecules (\(\text{Cl}_2\)) have fewer electrons than sulfur molecules (\(\text{S}_8\)).

解題
Chlorine exists as diatomic \(\text{Cl}_2\) molecules, which contain 34 electrons per molecule. Sulfur exists as octatomic \(\text{S}_8\) molecules, which contain 128 electrons per molecule. The larger number of electrons in sulfur molecules leads to stronger instantaneous dipole-induced dipole (London dispersion) forces, resulting in a higher boiling point for sulfur and a lower boiling point for chlorine.
評分準則
1 mark for selecting option D, which correctly identifies that chlorine has weaker intermolecular forces than sulfur due to fewer electrons per molecule.

A.Concentration of \(\text{SO}_3(g)\) increases; \(K_c\) increases
B.Concentration of \(\text{SO}_3(g)\) decreases; \(K_c\) decreases
C.Concentration of \(\text{SO}_3(g)\) decreases; \(K_c\) remains constant
D.Concentration of \(\text{SO}_3(g)\) increases; \(K_c\) remains constant
查看答案詳解收起答案詳解
解題
According to Le Chatelier's principle, if the temperature of a system in dynamic equilibrium is increased, the equilibrium position shifts in the endothermic direction to absorb heat. Since the forward reaction is exothermic (\(\Delta H = -197\text{ kJ mol}^{-1}\)), the reverse reaction is endothermic. Thus, the equilibrium shifts to the left, which decreases the concentration of \(\text{SO}_3(g)\). Since temperature is the only variable that changes the value of \(K_c\), and the equilibrium has shifted to the reactants side, the value of \(K_c\) decreases.
評分準則
1 mark for identifying both that the concentration of sulfur trioxide decreases and the value of Kc decreases with an increase in temperature.

查看答案詳解收起答案詳解
解題
Step 1: Identify the volume of carbon dioxide produced. Passing the gas through aqueous \( \text{NaOH} \) absorbs the acidic oxide \( \text{CO}_2 \). \( \text{Volume of CO}_2 \text{ produced} = 50.0\text{ cm}^3 - 20.0\text{ cm}^3 = 30.0\text{ cm}^3 \). Since \( 10.0\text{ cm}^3 \) of hydrocarbon produced \( 30.0\text{ cm}^3 \) of \( \text{CO}_2 \), \( x = \frac{30.0}{10.0} = 3 \).
Step 2: Identify the volume of unreacted oxygen. The final remaining \( 20.0\text{ cm}^3 \) of gas must be the excess unreacted oxygen gas.
Step 3: Find the volume of oxygen that reacted. \( \text{Volume of O}_2 \text{ reacted} = 70.0\text{ cm}^3 - 20.0\text{ cm}^3 = 50.0\text{ cm}^3 \).
Step 4: Write the general equation for combustion and solve for \( y \): \( \text{C}_3\text{H}_y + (3 + \frac{y}{4})\text{O}_2 \rightarrow 3\text{CO}_2 + \frac{y}{2}\text{H}_2\text{O} \) Since 1 volume of hydrocarbon reacts with 5 volumes of \( \text{O}_2 \): \( 3 + \frac{y}{4} = 5 \implies \frac{y}{4} = 2 \implies y = 8 \).
Thus, the formula is \( \text{C}_3\text{H}_8 \).

解題
A is incorrect: Silicon is a metalloid with a giant molecular (covalent) structure, not metallic bonding. B is incorrect: Phosphorus has a simple molecular structure (\( \text{P}_4 \)), not a giant molecular structure. C is correct: Sulfur exists as \( \text{S}_8 \) rings, which contain more electrons than \( \text{P}_4 \) molecules. This results in stronger London dispersion (van der Waals') forces between molecules, giving sulfur a higher melting point than phosphorus. D is incorrect: Argon is monatomic with weak van der Waals' forces, giving it an extremely low melting point.
評分準則
1 mark: Correctly identify that sulfur's higher melting point than phosphorus is due to stronger intermolecular forces because of its larger molecular formula (S8 vs P4).

解題
1. Identify element \(\text{X}\): An oxide in Period 3 that is a white solid and reacts with both acids and bases (amphoteric) is aluminium oxide, \(\text{Al}_2\text{O}_3\). Therefore, \(\text{X}\) is aluminium (\(\text{Al}\)) and \(\text{Y}\) is aluminium oxide (\(\text{Al}_2\text{O}_3\)).
2. Evaluate the statements:
- Option A: Aluminium is a metal and conducts electricity in both solid and liquid states due to its delocalised valence electrons. (Incorrect)
- Option B: Aluminium chloride (\(\text{AlCl}_3\)) undergoes hydrolyses in water to form an acidic solution with a pH of about 3. (Incorrect)
- Option C: Aluminium oxide has a giant ionic lattice structure with significant covalent character, not a giant covalent structure. (Incorrect)
- Option D: The element immediately to the left of aluminium is magnesium. Magnesium (\(1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 3s^2\)) has a higher first ionisation energy than aluminium (\(1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 3s^2 3p^1\)) because the outer electron of aluminium is in a \(3p\) orbital, which is higher in energy and more shielded than the \(3s\) orbital of magnesium.

查看答案詳解收起答案詳解
解題
1. Analyze each option using Le Chatelier's principle:
- Option A: The forward reaction is exothermic (\(\Delta H = -197\text{ kJ mol}^{-1}\)). Increasing the temperature shifts the equilibrium in the endothermic (reverse) direction to absorb the added thermal energy. This decreases the yield of \(\text{SO}_3\). (Incorrect)
- Option B: Decreasing the volume increases the overall pressure. The system shifts in the direction of fewer gas molecules to reduce the pressure. There are 3 moles of gaseous reactants and 2 moles of gaseous products. Therefore, the equilibrium shifts to the right, increasing the yield of \(\text{SO}_3\). (Correct)
- Option C: Adding a catalyst increases the rate of both forward and reverse reactions equally. It does not alter the position of the equilibrium or change the yield. (Incorrect)
- Option D: Removing oxygen (\(\text{O}_2\)) decreases the concentration of a reactant, causing the system to shift to the left to replace the lost reactant. This decreases the yield of \(\text{SO}_3\). (Incorrect)

解題
1. Shaking with concentrated aqueous \(\text{NaOH\)} removes \(\text{CO}_2\) gas by absorption. The volume of \(\text{CO}_2\) produced = \(90\text{ cm}^3 - 30\text{ cm}^3 = 60\text{ cm}^3\). 2. The remaining 30 cm\(^3\) of gas is unreacted oxygen. The volume of oxygen reacted = \(120\text{ cm}^3 - 30\text{ cm}^3 = 90\text{ cm}^3\). 3. Use the mole ratio of gas volumes (Avogadro's hypothesis): \(\text{C}_x\text{H}_y + (x + y/4)\text{O}_2 \rightarrow x\text{CO}_2 + y/2\text{H}_2\text{O}\). Ratio of volumes reacting/produced: \(\text{C}_x\text{H}_y : \text{O}_2 : \text{CO}_2 = 20 : 90 : 60 = 1 : 4.5 : 3\). 4. Therefore: \(x = 3\). From oxygen stoichiometry: \(x + y/4 = 4.5 \Rightarrow 3 + y/4 = 4.5 \Rightarrow y = 6\). The molecular formula is \(\text{C}_3\text{H}_6\).

1. Since the oxide \(Y\) reacts with water to form an acidic solution (turns blue litmus red), \(Y\) must be an acidic oxide of a non-metal that is soluble in water. 2. Silicon dioxide (\(\text{SiO}_2\)) is an acidic oxide but is insoluble in water, so it does not affect litmus. 3. Aluminium oxide (\(\text{Al}_2\text{O}_3\)) is amphoteric, insoluble, and reacts with both acids and bases. 4. Sodium oxide (\(\text{Na}_2\text{O}\)) is basic, reacting with water to form an alkaline solution (\(\text{NaOH}\)) which would turn red litmus blue. 5. Phosphorus reacts with oxygen to form phosphorus(V) oxide (\(\text{P}_4\text{O}_{10}\)), which is a soluble acidic oxide. It reacts vigorously with water to form phosphoric(V) acid, turning blue litmus red, and reacts with bases but not acids. Thus, element \(X\) is phosphorus.

解題
(a) (i) - The increase in mass of the drying agent is due to water: \(m(\text{H}_2\text{O}) = 1.44\text{ g}\). - Mass of H in the sample = \(1.44 \times \frac{2 \times 1.008}{18.016} = 0.161\text{ g}\) (or \(1.44 \times \frac{2}{18} = 0.160\text{ g}\)). - The increase in mass of the sodium hydroxide is due to carbon dioxide: \(m(\text{CO}_2) = 2.64\text{ g}\). - Mass of C in the sample = \(2.64 \times \frac{12.011}{44.01} = 0.720\text{ g}\).
(ii) - Mass of oxygen in the sample = \(1.20 - (0.720 + 0.160) = 0.320\text{ g}\). - Moles of C = \(\frac{0.720}{12.0} = 0.060\text{ mol}\). - Moles of H = \(\frac{0.160}{1.0} = 0.160\text{ mol}\). - Moles of O = \(\frac{0.320}{16.0} = 0.020\text{ mol}\). - Dividing by the smallest number of moles (0.020): \(\text{C} : \text{H} : \text{O} = 3 : 8 : 1\). - Empirical formula is \(\text{C}_3\text{H}_8\text{O}\).
(ii) - Moles of \(\text{MCO}_3 = \text{moles of } \text{CO}_2 = 0.01395\text{ mol}\). - \(M_{\text{r}}\text{ of } \text{MCO}_3 = \frac{1.18\text{ g}}{0.01395\text{ mol}} = 84.6\text{ g mol}^{-1}\) (or \(84.3\text{ g mol}^{-1}\) if using \(0.0140\text{ mol}\)). - \(A_{\text{r}}\text{ of M} = 84.6 - (12.0 + 3 \times 16.0) = 84.6 - 60.0 = 24.6\). - The metal M is magnesium (\(\text{Mg}\), actual \(A_{\text{r}} = 24.3\)).

Extrapolate your lines to determine the theoretical maximum temperature rise, \(\Delta T\), at the 4th minute. Show your extrapolation clearly on the graph. Determine: - Initial temperature at 4th minute (from extrapolation) = ............ \(^\circ\text{C}\) - Maximum temperature at 4th minute (from extrapolation) = ............ \(^\circ\text{C}\) - Temperature rise, \(\Delta T\) = ............ \(^\circ\text{C}\)
**(c) Calculations** 1. Calculate the heat energy, \(q\) (in J), released during the reaction. (Assume the specific heat capacity of the mixture is \(4.18\text{ J g}^{-1}\text{ K}^{-1}\) and its density is \(1.00\text{ g cm}^{-3}\)). 2. Calculate the number of moles of \(\text{CuSO}_4\) in \(25.0\text{ cm}^3\) of FB 3. 3. Calculate the enthalpy change, \(\Delta H\), in \(\text{kJ mol}^{-1}\), for this reaction. Include the correct sign.
**(d) Evaluation** Suggest one modification to the experimental apparatus that would reduce heat loss, and explain how it achieves this.

**(a) Method and Results:** Sample temperature readings: - Minute 0: 21.0 °C - Minute 1: 21.0 °C - Minute 2: 21.0 °C - Minute 3: 21.0 °C - Minute 4: [Addition of Zn] - Minute 5: 39.5 °C - Minute 6: 41.5 °C - Minute 7: 41.0 °C - Minute 8: 40.5 °C - Minute 9: 40.0 °C - Minute 10: 39.5 °C
**(b) Graph and Extrapolation:** Plot temperature vs time. Draw a horizontal best-fit line through the points from 0 to 3 minutes. Draw a straight line of cooling through points from 5 to 10 minutes, and extrapolate both lines to the 4th minute. Using sample data: - Extrapolated initial temp at 4 min = \(21.0\ ^\circ\text{C}\) - Extrapolated maximum temp at 4 min = \(42.5\ ^\circ\text{C}\) - \(\Delta T = 42.5 - 21.0 = 21.5\ ^\circ\text{C}\).
**(d) Evaluation:** Modification: Place a lid on the plastic cup OR wrap the plastic cup in insulating material like cotton wool or use nested plastic cups. Explanation: This reduces heat transfer by convection/conduction to the surroundings, making the measured temperature rise closer to the theoretical value.
