2 Energy Changes of Chemical Reactions 1. What is meant by: (b) an exothermic reaction an endothermic reaction. 2. A self-cooling can of beer has been developed. The beer is surrounded by an outer compartment containing a water gel. When the user activates a mechanism, the surrounding water quickly evaporates away, taking with it lots of heat energy from the liquid beer drink inside the actual can. Is this an example of an exothermic or an endothermic reaction? 3. Morven was investigating the reaction between magnesium and hydrochloric acid. As well as seeing bubbles of gas being released, she also noticed that the reaction mixture got hotter. Is the reaction exothermic or endothermic? Rates of Reaction 1. Marcy and Iain were investigating the time taken for 1.0 g of magnesium ribbon to react fully with 1.0 mol l -1 of hydrochloric acid at room temperature. They noted that the reaction took 130 seconds. Would the reaction be faster, slower or take the same time if the used: (b) (c) 1.0 g of magnesium powder. acid that has been stored in a fridge. 0.5 mol l -1 acid. 2. Three experiments were set up as shown. Each experiment is carried out at room temperature and the mass of magnesium is the same in each case. State and explain any differences in the rate of reaction between: (i) Experiment A and B (ii) Experiment A and C (b) Explain any difference in the reaction rate if experiment A was repeated at 50 O C. 2

Volume of hydrochloric acid (cm 3 ) Volume of Water (cm 3 ) Time/s Experiment Experiment Experiment State the volume of water the candidate should have used in (i) experiment 2 (ii) experiment 3 (b) Which experiment has the fastest rate of reaction. 5. Describe two ways to measure the rate of a reaction. You may wish to use diagrams to help with your description. 6. The graph below shows the rate of reaction between an excess of magnesium in a lump and 100cm 3 of 1 mol l -1 hydrochloric acid at 20 o C. a) How long did the reaction take to finish? b) How much gas was produced in the first minute? c) What was the final volume of gas produced? d) Copy the graph and on it draw another line showing the rate of reaction between an excess of magnesium in a lump and 100cm 3 of 1 mol/l hydrochloric acid at 40 o C. 3

Which graph represents the marble chips with the smaller particle size? What is the total change in mass during each reaction? 8. A student carried out three experiments involving the reaction of magnesium with dilute acid. They measured the volume of hydrogen given off. The same mass of magnesium and volume of acid were used each time. A curve obtained for experiment 1 is drawn on the graph. Copy the above graph and draw 2 curves on the same axes to show the curves that would be obtained for experiments 2 and 3. Label each curve clearly. 4

(d) Solution D has a ph of Do the following chemicals make acidic, alkaline or neutral solutions when they dissolve in water? sodium chloride (b) carbon dioxide (c) hydrogen chloride (d) potassium hydroxide 4. Acid rain has a ph value between ph 5.5 and ph 2 in some cases, the rain is as acidic as vinegar! The acidity of the rain depends upon the amount of acidic gases dissolved in it. When acid rain reaches streams and lakes, it makes them acidic. This may kill the water life, including any fish. When acid rain falls on the ground, it soaks into the soil and reacts with the minerals in the soil. This may prevent plants from taking up minerals such as iron, zinc and magnesium which they need for healthy growth. As a result, plants and even wellestablished trees may die. When acid rain falls directly onto plants, it may damage new shoots and leaves. This also prevents the plant from growing. When acid rain falls on buildings and other structures it also causes damage. The acid rain reacts with any carbonates contained in the rocks used for building. Acid rain also corrodes metals such as iron, weakening bridges and other large structures. Choose one of the effects of acid rain listed above, and research it in more detail. Produce a three-minute talk to give your class about your findings. 5. Describe the environmental impact of carbon dioxide. 6. Give two reasons why acids may be added to food. 11

12 7. Molly used a ph sensor to test different liquids. She dipped the probe of the sensor into each liquid and recorded the ph value in a table. Copy the table below and tick one box for each liquid to show whether it is acidic, neutral or alkaline. One has been done for you. liquid ph value acidic neutral alkaline alcohol 7 dilute hydrochloric acid 2 Distilled water 7 vinegar 3 sodium hydroxide solution 11 (b) Between each test Molly dipped the probe into distilled water. (i) Why did she do this? (ii) Which other liquid in the table could Molly use between tests to have the same effect as distilled water? (c) Molly put a piece of magnesium into a test-tube containing 20 cm 3 of vinegar. She put another piece of magnesium into a test-tube containing 20 cm 3 of dilute hydrochloric acid. (i) Molly thought that magnesium would react more vigorously with hydrochloric acid than with vinegar. What information in the table made Molly think this? (ii) How would Molly be able to tell if a more vigorous reaction took place with hydrochloric acid than with vinegar? 12

13 8. A scientist compared the acidity of four gases to see which gas might cause acid rain. She used four balloons to collect the gases. She then bubbled the gases, in turn, through a fresh sample of green, neutral, universal indicator solution. balloon containing gas universal indicator solution rubber tube Three of the gases caused the indicator to change colour. The scientist added drops of alkali to the indicator until the indicator changed back to green. Her results are shown in the table below. gases collected exhaust gases from a car change in colour of indicator number of drops of alkali needed to change the indicator back to green green to red 31 carbon dioxide green to red 160 air no change 0 human breath green to yellow 10 Use information in the table to answer part and part (b) below. (b) (c) Which gas dissolved to form the most acidic solution? Explain your choice. Which gas formed a neutral solution? Explain your choice. What effect does an alkali have on an acid? 13

14 9. A pupil used a sensor to record the change in ph of 10 cm3 of an acid solution when an alkali solution was added a little at a time. The concentrations of the alkali and acid solutions were fixed. His results are shown in the table below. volume of alkali added (cm3) ph of resulting mixture Use his results to draw a graph on a piece of graph paper. Label the axes. Plot the points. Draw a smooth curve. (b) Look at the graph. What would be the likely ph of the solution if the pupil added a further 2 cm3 of alkali solution? 14

15 10. Are ph balanced products really better for your skin? This is an exercise in planning. Many products now advertise the fact that they are ph balanced or match our skin ph of 5.5. Are these products really better for us, or is it just another advertising trick to get us to spend more money when a cheaper product would do the job just as well? This is a scientific question, because it can be investigated using an experiment. It is not easy to plan this type of investigation because: it involves using people rather than test tubes or apparatus the results would take a long time to gather it is difficult to make it a fair test. The following questions will help you to think about how you could set up a fair test. You probably won t be able to actually carry out the experiment, unless you have friends or family who are very patient! a) Would it be fair to test the product on only one person? Why not? b) How many people would you need to involve in your test to make sure you had a large enough sample? Would the age or gender be important? Suggest how you might choose a good scientific sample of people to be involved. c) Would everyone in the group try the ph balanced soap, or only some people? d) How do adverts try to show that hair treatments (e.g. dandruff shampoos) work? Could you use this method for soaps? e) How would you tell if one soap was better than another? Would it be good enough to rely on what the people using the soap told you? f) Would it matter if some people in the experiments thought that ph balanced products were better before they did the experiment? Explain your answer. g) When doctors try out a new medicine, they use a blind test. Some patients receive the medicine being tested and others get a similar pill or liquid without the drug in it (a placebo ). The patient does not know if they are taking the real medicine or the placebo. Could you use this method for the soap experiment? Explain whether or not you think it might work. h) In a double blind test, neither the doctor nor the patient knows which is the real medicine. Why do they set up a test like this? If you were doing the observations in the soap experiment, could you be trusted to be fair, or would it be better if you didn t know which soap was which until after you had collected your results? 15
