However, ammonia does not react with water completely. Only very few hydroxide ions are formed. NH 3 (g) + H 2 O(l) NH 4 + (aq) + OH (aq) Hence aqueous ammonia contains both ammonia molecules and ammonium ions. 8

SO 2 (g) + NaOH(aq) NaHSO 3 (aq) 106 C Aqueous solution of ethanoic acid can conduct electricity. Hence ethanoic acid is an electrolyte. Ethanoic acid is a covalent compound when pure. Pure ethanoic acid consists of molecules. 107 D When dilute sulphuric acid reacts with calcium carbonate, insoluble calcium sulphate forms.

NH 3 (g) + water NH 3 (aq) + H 2 O(l) NH 3 (aq) NH 4 + (aq) + OH (aq) Thus aqueous ammonia contains ammonia molecules, water molecules and a few ammonium ions and hydroxide ions. 16

17 41 C In general, non-metals react with oxygen to form acidic oxides and metals react with oxygen to form basic oxides. Option A Calcium oxide is slightly basic. It reacts slightly with cold water to form calcium hydroxide, which is very slightly soluble. So, only a slightly alkaline solution is formed. CaO(s) + H 2 O(l) Ca(OH) 2 (s) Option C Potassium oxide is strongly basic. It dissolves in water to form potassium hydroxide solution. K 2 O(s) + H 2 O(l) 2KOH(aq) Hence the ph of the solution of potassium oxide is higher than that of calcium oxide. Options B and D Oxides of carbon and sulphur are acidic.

18 48 A 49 A The electrical conductivity of a solution, and hence the brightness of the bulb, is proportional to the concentration of mobile ions. Option Acid Remark Concentration of ions A 25 cm 3 of 0.5 mol dm 3 H 2 SO 4 (aq) H 2 SO 4 (aq) is a strong acid H 2 SO 4 (aq) 2H + (aq) + SO 2 4 (aq) 1.5 mol dm 3 B 25 cm 3 of 0.5 mol dm 3 HCl(aq) HCl(aq) is a strong acid HCl(aq) H + (aq) + Cl (aq) 1.0 mol dm 3 C 25 cm 3 of 0.5 mol dm 3 CH 3 COOH(aq) CH 3 COOH(aq) is a weak acid CH 3 COOH(aq) CH 3 COO (aq) + H + (aq) < 1.0 mol dm 3 D 25 cm 3 of 0.5 mol dm 3 NH 3 (aq) NH 3 (aq) is a weak alkali NH 3 (aq) + H 2 O(l) NH 4 + (aq) + OH (aq) < 1.0 mol dm 3 25 cm 3 of 0.5 mol dm 3 H 2 SO 4 (aq) have the highest concentration of mobile ions and thus will make the bulb the brightest. 50 C Options A, B and D During the reaction of hydrochloric acid and ethanoic acid with marble chips, marble chips would react with hydrogen ions in the acids. Option C CaCO 3 (s) + 2HCl(aq) Hydrochloric acid is a strong acid that completely dissociates in water. Ethanoic acid is weak acid that only partially dissociates in water. Therefore 1 mol dm 3 hydrochloric acid has a higher concentration of hydrogen ions than 1 mol dm 3 ethanoic acid does. The reaction rate between marble chips and ethanoic acid is thus lower and the reaction takes a longer time to complete. CaCO 3 (s) + 2CH 3 COOH(aq) CaCl 2 (aq) + H 2 O(l) + CO 2 (g) (CH 3 COO) 2 Ca(aq) + H 2 O(l) + CO 2 (g) According to the equations, 2 moles of HCl / CH 3 COOH require 1 mole of CaCO 3 for complete reaction. 100 cm 3 of 1 mol dm 3 hydrochloric acid and 100 cm 3 of 1 mol dm 3 ethanoic acid require the same number of moles of CaCO 3 for complete reaction. Hence the mass of marble chips left over would be the same for both acids. 51 A Carbonic acid is a weak acid that only partially dissociates in water. H 2 CO 3 (aq) 2H + (aq) + CO 3 2 (aq) The concentration of H 2 CO 3 (aq) is the highest in 0.10 mol dm 3 carbonic acid. 52 C Both nitric acid and hydrochloric acid are monobasic strong acids. HNO 3 (aq) HCl(aq) H + (aq) + NO 3 (aq) H + (aq) + Cl (aq) Therefore the concentration of hydrogen ions in 1.0 mol dm 3 nitric acid and 1.0 mol dm 3 hydrochloric acid is the same. 18

19 Mixing 100 cm 3 of the nitric acid with 100 cm 3 of the hydrochloric acid would NOT result in a change in the concentration of hydrogen ions, i.e. would NOT result in a change in ph. 53 A When we describe acids as strong and weak, we are talking about the extent of their dissociation in water. When we talk about concentration, we are referring to the amount of an acid in a unit volume of solution. Sulphuric acid is a strong acid. Hence 0.1 mol dm 3 sulphuric acid is a dilute solution of a strong acid. 54 B The ph of NaCl(aq) is 7. Its ph remains constant upon dilution. 55 A During the reaction between magnesium and an acid, magnesium reacts with hydrogen ions in the acid. From the diagrams, it can be deduced that magnesium reacts more slowly with 0.1 mol dm 3 HA(aq). The concentration of hydrogen ions in 0.1 mol dm 3 HA(aq) is lower than that in 0.1 mol dm 3 HB(aq). Hence acid HA is probably weaker than acid HB. 56 A (3) Washing soda is hydrated sodium carbonate (Na 2 CO 3 10H 2 O). Its solution is alkaline, with a ph > A (2) and (3) When we describe acids as strong and weak, we are talking about the extent of their dissociation in water. When we talk about concentration, we are referring to the amount of an acid in a unit volume of solution. For example, 5 mol dm 3 nitric acid is a concentrated solution of a strong acid while 0.1 mol dm 3 nitric acid is a dilute solution of a strong acid. 58 A In general, non-metals react with oxygen to form acidic oxides and metals react with oxygen to form basic oxides. (1) and (2) Calcium oxide and magnesium oxide are slightly basic. They react with cold water to form hydroxides which are slightly soluble. Solutions with a ph > 7 are formed. CaO(s) + H 2 O(l) MgO(s) + H 2 O(l) Ca(OH) 2 (s) Mg(OH) 2 (s) 59 B (1) Hydrochloric acid is a strong acid while ethanoic acid is a weak acid. (2) The ph is a measure of the concentration of hydrogen ions in a solution. Therefore acid solutions of the same ph should have the same concentration of hydrogen ions. (3) Hydrochloric acid almost completely dissociates in water to give hydrogen ions and chloride ions. Ethanoic acid only partially dissociates in water, forming very few hydrogen ions. Hence hydrochloric acid and ethanoic acid having the same ph should have different concentrations. 60 C (1) Adding 1 mol dm 3 hydrochloric acid to the ethanoic acid makes the ethanoic acid more acidic, thus decreasing the ph of the ethanoic acid. (2) and (3) Solid sodium carbonate and magnesium react with the ethanoic acid, thus both will increase the ph of the ethanoic acid. 19

20 61 A (1) SO 2 (g) will neutralize the dilute sodium hydroxide solution, making the solution less alkaline. Thus the ph of the solution will decrease. (2) NaCl(s) is neutral. It will NOT lower the ph of the dilute sodium hydroxide solution. (3) When NH 3 (g) dissolves in water, it reacts with water to give ammonium ions and hydroxide ions. It will NOT lower the ph of the dilute sodium hydroxide solution. 62 B (1) The electrical conductivity of a solution is proportional to the concentration of mobile ions. Hydrochloric acid is a strong acid while ethanoic acid is a weak acid. Therefore 1 mol dm 3 hydrochloric acid has a higher concentration of mobile ions than 1 mol dm 3 ethanoic acid does. Hence the electrical conductivity of 1 mol dm 3 hydrochloric acid is higher than that of 1 mol dm 3 ethanoic acid. (2) CH 3 COOH(aq) + NaOH(aq) CH 3 COONa(aq) + H 2 O(l) HCl(aq) + NaOH(aq) NaCl(aq) + H 2 O(l) According to the equations, 1 mole of CH 3 COOH / HCl requires 1 mole of NaOH for complete neutralization. 1 mol dm 3 ethanoic acid and 1 mol dm 3 hydrochloric acid of the same volume require the same number of moles of NaOH for complete neutralization. (3) For the neutralization between a strong acid and a strong alkali, the heat released is 57 kj for 1 mole of water produced. For neutralization in which either the acid or alkali or both are weak, the heat released is less than 57 kj for 1 mole of water produced. This is because some energy is consumed when the weak acid and weak alkali dissociate to give hydrogen ions and hydroxide ions before neutralization. Ethanoic acid is a weak acid while hydrochloric acid is a strong acid. Hence the temperature rise for the neutralization between 1 mol dm 3 ethanoic acid and NaOH(aq) is lower than that between 1 mol dm 3 hydrochloric acid and NaOH(aq). 63 C (1) NaOH(aq) is a strong alkali while NH 3 (aq) is a weak alkali. Hence 1 mol dm 3 NaOH(aq) is more alkaline than 1 mol dm 3 NH 3 (aq). The ph of 1 mol dm 3 NaOH(aq) is higher than that of 1 mol dm 3 NH 3 (aq). (2) The electrical conductivity of a solution is proportional to the concentration of mobile ions. NaOH(aq) is a strong alkali while NH 3 (aq) is a weak alkali. Therefore 1 mol dm 3 NaOH(aq) has a higher concentration of mobile ions than 1 mol dm 3 NH 3 (aq) does. Hence the electrical conductivity of 1 mol dm 3 NaOH(aq) is higher than that of 1 mol dm 3 NH 3 (aq). 20

21 (3) For the neutralization between a strong acid and a strong alkali, the heat released is 57 kj for 1 mole of water produced. For neutralization in which either the acid or alkali or both are weak, the heat released is less than 57 kj for 1 mole of water produced. This is because some energy is consumed when the weak acid and weak alkali dissociate to give hydrogen ions and hydroxide ions before neutralization. NaOH(aq) is a strong alkali while NH 3 (aq) is a weak alkali. Hence the temperature rise for the neutralization between 1 mol dm 3 larger than that between 1 mol dm 3 NH 3 (aq) and HCl(aq). NaOH(aq) and HCl(aq) is 64 D Carbon dioxide reacts with water to form carbonic acid. CO 2 (g) + H 2 O(l) H 2 CO 3 (aq) Carbonic acid is a weak acid. It only partially dissociates in water. H 2 CO 3 (aq) 2H + (aq) + CO 3 2 (aq) (1) The resulting solution contains mobile ions and thus conducts electricity better than water. (2) Carbonic acid undergoes neutralization with dilute sodium hydroxide solution. 65 D (2) Aqueous solution of citric acid can conduct electricity. Hence citric acid is an electrolyte. 66 A 67 D Very dilute nitric acid acts as a typical acid. It reacts with magnesium. When we describe acids as strong and weak, we are talking about the extent of their dissocation in water. When we talk about concentration, we are referring to the amount of an acid in a unit volume of solution. For example, 5 mol dm 3 nitric acid is a concentrated solution of a strong acid while 0.1 mol dm 3 nitric acid is a dilute solution of a strong acid. 68 C Adding 1 mol dm 3 NaCl(aq) to 50 cm 3 of 1 mol dm 3 HCl(aq) increases the total volume of the acid. Hence the concentration of hydrogen ions in the acid decreases. Thus the ph of the acid is affected. 69 D Ethanoic acid is a weak acid. The basicity of ethanoic acid is 1. 21

22 70 B Sulphuric acid is a strong acid because it almost completely dissociates in water. Ethanoic acid is a weak acid because it only partly dissociates in water. 71 B Solid citric acid does NOT react with magnesium because it does not contain hydrogen ions. The aqueous solution of citric acid shows typical properties of an acid while solid citric acid does not. 72 B A solution can conduct electricity due to the presence of mobile ions. When solid citric acid dissolves in water, some of the molecules dissociate to give ions. citric acid(aq) H + (aq) + citrate ion(aq) Hence an aqueous solution of citric acid can conduct electricity. 73 C The electrical conductivity of a solution is proportional to the concentration of mobile ions. NaOH(aq) is a strong alkali while NH 3 (aq) is a weak alkali. Therefore 1 mol dm 3 NaOH(aq) has a higher concentration of mobile ions than 1 mol dm 3 NH 3 (aq) does. Hence the electrical conductivity of 1 mol dm 3 NaOH(aq) is higher than that of 1 mol dm 3 NH 3 (aq). When ammonia gas dissolves in water, it reacts with water to give ammonium ions and hydroxide ions. However, ammonia does not react with water completely. Only very few hydroxide ions are formed. NH 3 (g) + H 2 O(l) NH 4 + (aq) + OH (aq) Hence there are many mobile ammonia molecules in aqueous ammonia. 74 C Both 1 mol dm 3 NaOH(aq) and 1 mol dm 3 NH 3 (aq) form a reddish brown precipitate with Fe 2 (SO 4 ) 3 (aq). 75 C CH 3 COOH(aq) + NaOH(aq) CH 3 COONa(aq) + H 2 O(l) HCl(aq) + NaOH(aq) NaCl(aq) + H 2 O(l) According to the equations, 1 mole of CH 3 COOH / HCl requires 1 mole of NaOH for complete neutralization. Hence 10 cm 3 of 1 mol dm 3 ethanoic acid and 10 cm 3 of 1 mol dm 3 hydrochloric acid require the same number of moles of sodium hydroxide for complete neutralization.

23 4 calcium; lead(ii); barium 5 lead(ii); silver True or false 6 T 7 F In neutralization, salt and water are the only products. However, potassium carbonate and dilute hydrochloric acid react to give a salt, carbon dioxide gas and water. Therefore the reaction is NOT a neutralization reaction. 8 T 9 F Heat is absorbed during the sublimation of iodine. Hence this is NOT an exothermic process. 10 F The reaction between dilute hydrochloric acid and dilute sodium hydroxide solution produces only one salt, sodium chloride. Sodium chloride is a normal salt. 11 T Sulphur dioxide would react with sodium hydroxide solution. SO 2 (g) + NaOH(aq) NaHSO 3 (aq) 12 T A molecule of sulphuric acid can produce two hydrogen ions. If dilute sulphuric acid is allowed to react with dilute sodium hydroxide solution, two kinds of salt can form. When one of the hydrogen ions is replaced, the salt formed is sodium hydrogensulphate (NaHSO 4 ). It is an acid salt. When both hydrogen ions are replaced, the salt formed is sodium sulphate (Na 2 SO 4 ). It is a normal salt. acid (sulphuric acid) acid salt (sodium hydrogensulphate) normal salt (sodium sulphate) H + H + SO 4 2 H + Na + SO 4 2 Na + Na + SO 4 2 replacing H + replacing H + Na + Na + (from sodium hydroxide solution) (from sodium hydroxide solution) 23

24 13 T A molecule of carbonic acid can produce two hydrogen ions. During the reaction between carbonic acid and dilute potassium hydroxide solution, the acid salt potassium hydrogen carbonate (KHCO 3 ) forms when one of the hydrogen ions is replaced. acid (carbonic acid) acid salt (potassium hydrogencarbonate) H + H + CO 3 2 H + K + CO 3 2 replacing H + K + (from potassium hydroxide solution) 14 F The ph of a salt solution may NOT be 7. Most acid salts give an acidic solution when dissolved in water. For example, sodium hydrogensulphate (NaHSO 4 ) solution is acidic. This is because the hydrogensulphate ion (HSO 4 ) can dissociate to give hydrogen ion. 15 F Some salts are formed from the neutralization between an acid and an insoluble metal hydroxide / an insoluble metal oxide. For example, copper(ii) oxide is an insoluble metal oxide. It reacts with dilute sulphuric acid to give copper(ii) sulphate and water. H 2 SO 4 (aq) + CuO(s) CuSO 4 (aq) + H 2 O(l) 16 F A few acid salts give alkaline solutions when dissolved in water. 17 T Ammonium compounds are soluble in water. 18 F Silver iodide is yellow in colour. 19 T Lead(II) nitrate solution gives a white precipitate with dilute hydrochloric acid. Pb 2+ (aq) + 2Cl (aq) PbCl 2 (s) 20 F Zinc chloride solution gives a white precipitate with sodium carbonate solution. NO gas is evolved in the reaction. ZnCl 2 (aq) + Na 2 CO 3 (aq) ZnCO 3 (s) + 2NaCl(aq) 21 F When dilute sulphuric acid reacts with lead, insoluble lead(ii) sulphate forms. The lead(ii) sulphate covers the surface of lead and prevents further reaction. 24

25 22 F Farmers neutralize acidic soil by adding quicklime. 23 T Ammonium sulphate gives an acidic solution when dissolved in water. 24 F Sodium hydroxide is highly corrosive. It is NEVER used as an active ingredient in antacids. 25 F A lot of heat is released when concentrated hydrochloric acid reacts with concentrated aqueous ammonia. This will cause skin burn. Furthermore, concentrated aqueous ammonia is corrosive. The hand should be washed immediately with plenty of water. Multiple choice questions 26 A Iron(III) hydroxide reacts with dilute hydrochloric acid to give iron(iii) chloride and water. The resulting solution is yellow-brown in colour. Fe(OH) 3 (s) + 3HCl(aq) FeCl 3 (aq) + 3H 2 O(l) 27 D Only Zn(OH) 2 dissolves in excess dilute sodium hydroxide solution due to the formation of a soluble complex salt. 28 B Insoluble CaCO 3 is formed in the reaction between solutions of Na 2 CO 3 and Ca(NO 3 ) D For the neutralization between a strong acid and a strong alkali, the heat released is 57 kj for 1 mole of water produced. For neutralization in which either the acid or alkali or both are weak, the heat released is less than 57 kj for 1 mole of water produced. This is because some energy is consumed when the weak acid and weak alkali dissociate to give hydrogen ions and hydroxide ions before neutralization.

Hence the temperature rise of the first mixture is half that of the second mixture, i.e. T T B For the neutralization between a strong acid and a strong alkali, the heat released is 57 kj for 1 mole of water produced. Expt.

Hence the two mixtures show the same temperature rise, i.e. T 1 T D For the neutralization between a strong acid and a strong alkali, the heat released is 57 kj for 1 mole of water produced. For neutralization in which either the acid or alkali or both are weak, the heat released is less than 57 kj for 1 mole of water produced. This is because some energy is consumed when the weak acid and weak alkali dissociate to give hydrogen ions and hydroxide ions before neutralization. Expt.

CuO(s) + H 2 SO 4 (aq) CuSO 4 (aq) + H 2 O(l) Copper(II) sulphate is soluble in water while copper is insoluble. Therefore copper can be separated from the mixture by filtration. 41 C Option A AgNO 3 (aq) forms a white precipitate (Ag 2 CO 3 ) with CO 3 2 (aq) ions. 2Ag + (aq) + CO 3 2 (aq) Ag 2 CO 3 (s) AgNO 3 (aq) also forms a white precipitate (Ag 2 SO 4 ) in concentrated solution of SO 4 2 (aq) ions. Option B Ba(NO 3 ) 2 (aq) forms a white precipitate with both SO 4 2 (aq) ions and CO 3 2 (aq) ions. Ba 2+ (aq) + SO 4 2 (aq) Ba 2+ (aq) + CO 3 2 (aq) BaSO 4 (s) BaCO 3 (s) Option C Fe(NO 3 ) 3 (aq) gives a precipitate with CO 3 2 (aq) ions, but NOT with SO 4 2 (aq) ions. Hence Fe(NO 3 ) 3 (aq) can be used to separate the anions SO 4 2 (aq) and CO 3 2 (aq). 42 D Option A Calcium carbonate gives gas bubbles with dilute sulphuric acid. However, it is insoluble in water. Option B Lead(II) sulphate does not give gas bubbles with dilute sulphuric acid. It is also insoluble in water. Option C Magnesium chloride does not give gas bubbles with dilute sulphuric acid. Option D Potassium carbonate is soluble in water and gives gas bubbles (carbon dioxide) with dilute sulphuric acid. 43 D Option A Calcium sulphate is insoluble in water.

Option D Neutralization occurs when potassium hydroxide is mixed with dilute sulphuric acid. Heat is released. 44 B Copper(II) oxide is black in colour. When copper(ii) oxide is mixed with dilute sulphuric acid, a blue solution results. CuO(s) + H 2 SO 4 (aq) CuSO 4 (aq) + H 2 O(l) 28

PbCO 3 (s) + 2HNO 3 (aq) Pb(NO 3 ) 2 (aq) + H 2 O(l) + CO 2 (g) The resulting solution contains lead(ii) ions. The solution gives a white precipitate (lead(ii) chloride) with dilute hydrochloric acid. Pb 2+ (aq) + 2Cl (aq) PbCl 2 (s) 46 C Zinc reacts with dilute H 2 SO 4 (aq) (reactant X) to give a solution containing Zn 2+ (aq) ions. Zn(s) + H 2 SO 4 (aq) ZnSO 4 (aq) + H 2 (g) The solution gives a precipitate (ZnCO 3 (s)) with K 2 CO 3 (aq) (reactant Y). Zn 2+ (aq) + CO 3 2 (aq) ZnCO 3 (s) 47 A Calcium reacts with water to give calcium hydroxide and hydrogen. Ca(s) + 2H 2 O(l) Ca(OH) 2 (s) + H 2 (g) Calcium hydroxide is slightly soluble in water. Hence the clear solution contains calcium ions. It gives a white precipitate with sodium carbonate solution. Ca 2+ (aq) + CO 3 2 (aq) CaCO 3 (s) 48 B From Test 1, it can be deduced that solid X is a sulphate. A sulphate gives a white precipitate (barium sulphate) with barium nitrate solution. Ba 2+ (aq) + SO 4 2 BaSO 4 (s) From Test 2, it can be deduced that solid X contains aluminium ions rather than calcium ions. A solution containing aluminium ions gives a white precipitate (aluminium hydroxide) with dilute sodium hydroxide solution. The precipitate dissolves in excess alkali due to the formation of a complex salt. Al 3+ (aq) + 3OH (aq) Al(OH) 3 (s) + OH (aq) Al(OH) 3 (s) [Al(OH) 4 ] (aq) 49 C Lead(II) sulphate is an insoluble salt. It can be prepared by adding lead(ii) nitrate to dilute sulphuric acid. Pb 2+ (aq) + SO 4 2 (aq) PbSO 4 (s) 50 C Options A, B and D Oxides or hydroxides of copper, iron and zinc are insoluble bases. Sulphates of copper, iron and zinc are NOT prepared by an acid-alkali titration method. Option C Sodium sulphate can be prepared by reacting dilute sulphuric acid with dilute sodium hydroxide solution via an acid-alkali titration method. 51 D 29

30 As sulphuric acid was added, it removed both barium ions (by precipitation) and hydroxide ions (by neutralization). Ba(OH) 2 (aq) + H 2 SO 4 (aq) BaSO 4 (s) + 2H 2 O(l) At the equivalence point, all the barium ions and hydroxide ions had been removed. Hence the number of ions in the mixture falls until the equivalence point. After the equivalence point, the number of ions in the mixture rose as excess sulphuric acid was added. 52 C Option A Ammonium sulphate gives an acidic solution when dissolved in water. Farmers may add it to soil which has become too alkaline. 53 A 54 A Option C Slaked lime (calcium hydroxide) can neutralize the acidic waste. 55 B (2) This is NOT a neutralizaton reaction. In neutralization, salt and water are the only products. 56 A (1) Heat is released in neutralization reactions. (2) The product is sodium nitrate, a normal salt. (3) Sodium nitrate is an ionic compound. 57 C (1) When hydrogen chloride gas dissolves in water, almost all the hydrogen chloride molecules dissociate to give hydrogen ions and chloride ions. The solution formed contains mainly hydrogen ions (H + (aq)), chloride ions (Cl (aq)) and water molecules. HCl(aq) H + (aq) + Cl (aq) (2) A solution of hydrogen chloride in water can conduct electricity due to the presence of mobile ions. (3) A solution of hydrogen chloride and sodium hydroxide solution undergo a neutralization reaction when mixed. The reaction is exothermic. 58 D Iron reacts with dilute sulphuric acid to give iron(ii) sulphate solution and hydrogen gas. Fe(s) + H 2 SO 4 (aq) FeSO 4 (aq) + H 2 (g) 59 A (1) Heat would be released when concentrated sulphuric acid was mixed with water. (2) Dilute sulphuric acid and dilute aqueous ammonia underwent a neutralization reaction when mixed. Heat would be released. (3) A white precipitate (barium sulphate) appeared upon mixing dilute sulphuric acid and barium chloride solution. Ba 2+ (aq) + SO 4 2 (aq) BaSO 4 (s) 30
