(i) Compare the relative strengths of the two acids, HA(aq) and HB(aq), using the information given above. Your answer should include equations and calculations. (ii) Predict and compare, with reasons, what would be observed when two 5 g samples of calcium carbonate chips, CaCO3(s), are reacted, separately, with excess HA and HB. Molecule Polarity QUESTION Question: The Lewis structures for two molecules are shown. Ammonia, NH 3, is polar, and borane, BH3, is non-polar. Justify this statement. 1. Write an equation for HA [Remembering H3O + must be produced] HA + HO A + H3O +. Calculate H3O + for HA ph = 1.0 [H3O + ] = mol L 1 3. For HA link concentration of ions formed to level of dissociation AND compare to concentration of acid (are they the same?) 4. Write an equation for HB [Remembering H3O + must be produced] 5. Calculate H3O + for HB 6. For HB link concentration of ions formed to level of dissociation AND compare to concentration of acid (are they the same?) 7. For HA link observation of reaction to concentration of ions 8. then For HA link collision frequency to rate of reaction 9. For HB link observation of reaction to concentration of ions HA is a strong acid since it fully dissociates, as shown by concentration of hydronium ions in HA solution same as original concentration of HA (both mol L 1 ). HB + HO B + H3O + ph =. [H3O + ] = mol L 1 HB is a weak acid since it only partially dissociates; as shown by the concentration of hydronium ions in HB solution concentration is only mol L 1. Expect reaction to be more vigorous; rapidly produces gas / bubbles (CO ) since the concentration of hydrogen ions is high, there will be more frequent collisions resulting in a faster rate of reaction. Expect a slower reaction, taking longer to produce the same volume of gas since the concentration of hydrogen ions is low, 1. For the first molecule (name) state the types of bonds present (name atoms) and state whether they are polar (form a dipole) or non-polar due to electronegativity.. link electronegativity differences to sharing of electrons for your bond 3. state the shape of your molecule and link to being symmetrical or not and result in dipoles cancelling (or not) Each N-H bond in NH3 is polar / forms a dipole because the N and H atoms have different electronegativities. The electronegativity differences of the atoms means there is uneven sharing of the valence electrons (the electrons will spend more time around N than H causing N to be slightly negative and H to be slightly positive) The shape of the molecule (due to the presence of one non-bonding electron pair) is trigonal pyramidal which is asymmetrical, so the dipoles / bond polarities do not cancel. 4. link to final polarity of molecule The resulting NH3 molecule overall is polar. 5. For the second molecule (name) Each B-H bond in BH3 is polar / forms a dipole because the B and H atoms have state the types of bonds present different electronegativities. (name atoms) and state whether they are polar (form a dipole) or nonpolar due to electronegativity. 6. link electronegativity differences to sharing of electrons for your bond 7. state the shape of your molecule and link to being symmetrical or not and result in dipoles cancelling (or not) The electronegativity differences of the atoms means there is uneven sharing of the valence electrons (the electrons will spend more time around B than H causing B to be slightly negative and H to be slightly positive) The shape of the molecule is trigonal planar which is symmetrical, so the dipoles / bond polarities cancel. 10. then For HB link collision frequency to rate of reaction there will be less frequent collisions resulting in a slower rate of reaction. 8. link to final polarity of molecule The resulting BH3 molecule overall is non-polar. 30 3

These regions of negative charge repel each other as far away from each other as possible around the central C atom in a tetrahedral (base) arrangement, resulting in a o bond angle All of these regions of electrons are bonding, without any non-bonding regions, so the final shape of the molecule is tetrahedral. 5. for second molecule (name) state In each COCl molecule, there are three negative electron clouds / regions number of regions of negative charge around the central C atom. around the central atom (name central atom) 6. state the Valence shell electron pair repulsion (VSEPR) theory 7. state the base arrangement of negative regions and the bond angle they form These regions of negative charge repel each other as far away from each other as possible around the central C atom in a triangular / trigonal planar (base) shape, resulting in a 10 bond angle. ph calculations QUESTION 1 Question: In a solution of potassium hydroxide, KOH, the ph is found to be 1.8.

All of these regions of electrons are bonding, without any non-bonding regions, so the final shape of the molecule is trigonal planar. Both molecules have no non-bonding pairs but because CCl4 has 4 regions of negative charge around the central atom compared to the 3 regions that COCl has, then CCl4 has a smaller bond angle of o compared to the 10 bond angle of COCl STEP 1.

In your answer, you should refer to the particles and the forces between the particles in both substances. (you will need to fill in the chart below correctly as part of the question and use the terms in your answer) Ions and Conductivity QUESTION Question: Some properties of three aqueous solutions A, B and C, of equal concentration are shown in the table below. It is known that the solutions are NH3(aq), HCl(aq) and NH4Cl(aq) Justify the identification of all three solutions. refer to both ph and electrical conductivity of the solutions link your answers to appropriate chemical equations. Substance Type of substance Type of particle Attractive forces between particles Cl (s) chlorine Molecular Molecules Weak intermolecular forces CuCl (s) copper chloride Ionic Ion Ionic bonds / electrostatic attraction 1. For the first substance (name). describe the structure of this type of substance using the terms above 3. explain how the bonding relates to the energy required to break bonds of your substance 4. link to the observation (state at room temperature) in your question for the first substance Chlorine is a molecular substance composed of chlorine molecules held together by weak intermolecular forces The weak intermolecular forces do not require much heat energy to break, so the boiling point is low (lower than room temperature); therefore chlorine is a gas at room temperature. 5. For the second substance (name) Copper chloride is an ionic substance. 6. describe the structure of this type It is composed of a lattice of positive copper ions and negative chloride ions of substance using the terms above held together by electrostatic attraction (ionic bonds) between these positive and negative ions. 7. explain how the bonding relates to the energy required to break bonds of your substance 8. link to the observation (state at room temperature) in your question for the first substance These are strong forces, therefore they require considerable energy to disrupt them and melt the copper chloride; hence copper chloride is a solid at room temperature. 1. Identify each solution as either A, B or C by linking to being a weak or strong acid or base and also to the ph. State requirements for conductivity 3. Solution A (ph 5.15) weak acid salt. Equation 1. [A salt will first dissociate fully into ions] Write equation AND link ions formed to conductivity and level of dissociation 4. Solution A (ph 5.15) weak acid salt. Equation.[One of the products of dissociation will further react as an acid] Write equation AND link ions formed to conductivity and level of dissociation (must form H3O + ions) 5. Solution B (ph 11.6) weak base. Write equation AND link ions formed to conductivity and level of dissociation (must form OH - ions) 6. Solution C (ph 1.05) strong acid. Write equation AND link ions formed to conductivity and level of dissociation (must form H3O + ions) Solution A with a ph of 5.15 is a weak acid (salt) and is NH4Cl(aq) Solution B with a ph of 11.6 is a weak base and is NH3(aq) Solution C with a ph of 1.05 is a strong acid and is HCl(aq) In order to conduct electricity there needs to be the presence of free moving charged particles. The more charged particles there are available the better conductivity there will be. Ions in solution provide the charged particle. NH 4Cl NH Cl NH4Cl(aq) is solution A: good conductor of electricity it fully dissociates in solution into ammonium and chloride ions, which conduct electricity. NH H O NH 3 + H 3O + Its ph (5.15) is that of a weak acid, as the ammonium ion is a weak acid and partially dissociates in water, producing hydronium ions. NH 3 + H O NH OH NH3(aq) is solution B: its ph (11.6) is that of a weak base as NH3 so it partially dissociates in water, producing hydroxide ions. It is a poor conductor of electricity as it is only partially dissociated into ions in water. The remaining NH3 molecules are neutral and do not conduct electricity. HCl + H O H 3O + + Cl HCl(aq) is solution C: low ph (1.05) is that of a strong acid, HCl fully dissociates in water, producing hydronium ions. It is a good conductor of electricity as it fully dissociates into ions in solution which conduct electricity. 4 9

3 Writing Excellence answers to Equilibrium Concentration questions Equilibrium Concentration QUESTION Question: When acid is added to a yellow solution of chromate ions, CrO4 (aq), the following equilibrium is established. CrO4 (aq) + H + (aq) CrO7 (aq) + HO(l) yellow orange Analyse this equilibrium using equilibrium principles to explain the effect on the colour of the solution when: (i) more dilute acid is added AND when (ii) dilute base is added: 1. State the equilibrium principle When a change is made to a system that is at equilibrium, the system responds to reduce the effect of that change.. Describe the factor in your question AND Link the principle to how the system responds to increasing or decreasing concentration of reactants 3. Generally, explain which side of the equation is favoured (relate to reactants or products) by increasing or decreasing concentration 4. Specifically, for your reaction explain how you are increasing the concentration of reactants, AND link the direction of reaction that would be favoured 5. Describe how the system shift by increasing the concentration of reactants would affect which substances are made AND final observation. 6. Specifically, for your reaction explain how you are decreasing the concentration of reactants, AND link the direction of reaction that would be favoured 7. Describe how the system shift by decreasing the concentration of reactants would affect which substances are made AND final observation. The factor in the question above is concentration of reactants. If there is an increase in concentration of reactants, the system responds by increasing the rate products are made. If there is a decrease in concentration of reactants, the system responds by decreasing the rate products are made. An increase in concentration of reactants favours the forward reaction, and a decrease in concentration of reactants favours the reverse reaction. Adding dilute acid increases the concentration of the acid, one of the reactants, so the reaction moves in the forward direction and favours the products, therefore it will increase the rate that the added acid is used up More CrO7 (aq) would be produced and the solution would turn more orange. Adding base means that acid that reacts with the base is removed from the equilibrium (by neutralisation) and the concentration of the acid decreases. This will drive the equilibrium in the backwards direction and this favours the reactants to increase the rate of replacing the H + used up More CrO4 (aq), would be produced and the solution would turn more yellow. 8 5 Writing Excellence answers to Solids Conductivity (Ductility) questions Solids Conductivity (Ductility) QUESTION Question: Using your knowledge of structure and bonding, explain why, although both graphite and copper are good conductors of electricity, copper is suitable for electrical wires, but graphite is not. (note two properties to discuss) (you will need to fill in the chart below correctly as part of the question and use the terms in your answer) Substance Type of substance Type of particle Attractive forces between particles C(s) Graphite Covalent network Atom Covalent ( and weak intermolecular forces) Cu(s) copper metal Atom / cations and electrons Metallic bonds / electrostatic attraction 1. For the first substance (name) Graphite is a covalent network solid. describe the structure of this type composed of layers of C atoms covalently bonded to three other C atoms. The of substance using the terms above remaining valence electron is delocalised (ie free to move) between layers; 3. explain how the bonding relates to The delocalised electrons are able to carry an electrical charge the present of free moving charged particles to conduct electricity in your substance (property 1) 4. link to the observation Therefore graphite is able to conduct electricity (conductivity) in your question for the first substance 5. explain how the bonding relates to In graphite, the attractive forces holding the layers together are very weak and ductility in your substance (property are broken easily, so the layers easily slide over one another, ) 6. link to the observation (forming but the attraction is not strong enough to hold the layers together and allow it wires) in your question for the first to be drawn into wires or although the layers can slide due to weak forces, if substance graphite was to be made into a wire the very strong covalent bonds within the layers would have to be broken. Graphite cannot form wires. 7. For the second substance (name) Copper is a metallic substance 8. describe the structure of this type composed of copper atoms packed together. Valence electrons are loosely of substance using the terms above held and are attracted to the nuclei of the neighbouring Cu atoms ;ie the bonding is non-directional. 9. explain how the bonding relates to These delocalised valence electrons are free moving and can carry a charge the present of free moving charged particles to conduct electricity in your substance (property 1) 10. link to the observation Therefore copper is able to conduct electricty (conductivity) in your question for the second substance 11. explain how the bonding relates In copper, the non-directional metallic bonding holds the layers together, to ductility in your substance allowing it to be stretched without breaking. (property ) 1. link to the observation (forming Therefore Copper metal is malleable and can easily be drawn into wires since, wires) in your question for the as it is stretched out, second substance Writing Excellence answers to Equilibrium Pressure questions Equilibrium Pressure QUESTION Question: The two reactions shown in the following table are both at equilibrium. Compare and contrast the effect of increasing the pressure on both reactions, with reference to the equilibrium positions. 1. State the equilibrium principle When a change is made to a system that is at equilibrium, the system responds to reduce the effect of that change.. Describe the factor in your question AND Link increasing the principle to how the system responds [some questions will be decreasing] 3. Generally, explain which side of the equation is favoured (relate to moles) AND the general observations at visible and particle level. 4. Specifically, in reaction one describe number of moles in both sides of the equation AND link to which direction of reaction would be favoured (and observation) The factor in the question above is pressure. If there is an increase in pressure, the system responds by decreasing the pressure. This occurs by favouring the reaction, either forward or reverse direction, that produces fewer gas particles. Because there are now fewer particles hitting the sides of the container, there is less pressure. In Reaction One there are two moles of gas particles on each side of the equation. Because there are the same numbers of gas particles on both sides of the reaction, then a change in pressure will have no effect as neither reaction will be favoured. Writing Excellence answers to Endothermic and Exothermic questions Endothermic and Exothermic QUESTION Question: Pentane, C5H1, is a liquid at room temperature. It evaporates at 36.1 C in an endothermic process (i) Explain why the evaporation of pentane is an endothermic process. (ii) Draw, including labels, the energy diagram for the combustion of pentane, C5H1(l). Pentane combustion: C5H1(l) + 8O(g) 5CO(g) + 6HO(l) ΔrH º = 3509 kj mol 1 Include in your diagram the reactants, products, and change in enthalpy. 1. define an endothermic process An Endothermic process is one where heat / energy has been absorbed and the enthalpy of the products is higher than the reactants. For the substance (name) state the type of solid that it is 3. link state change (liquid to gas) to breaking bonds requiring energy 3. link state change to endothermic process 4. draw labelled diagram including labelled axis s, reactants HR, products HP and change in enthalpy H Pentane is a molecular solid made up of molecules held together by weak intermolecular bonds. Energy is required to change pentane from a liquid to a gas. The energy / heat is used to break weak intermolecular forces / bonds / attraction between pentane molecules. (not the strong covalent bonds between atoms in the molecule) Because energy is needed to be absorbed by the pentane to break the bonds then this process of evapouration is endothermic. 5. Specifically, in reaction two link number of moles in both sides of the equation to observation AND link to which direction of reaction would be favoured In Reaction Two however, there are four moles of gas particles on the reactant side of the equation and two moles of gas particles on the product side of the equation. Therefore, when there is an increase in pressure, the system would shift and favour the forward reaction 6. Describe how the system shift in reaction two would effect at particle level AND final observation. meaning there are now fewer gas particles overall and hence fewer gas particles hitting the sides of the container and therefore less pressure overall. 6 7

You may use diagrams in your justification. Potassium chloride is soluble in water while Silicon dioxide and copper are insoluble in water (you will need to fill in the chart below correctly as part of the question and use the terms in your answer) Substance Type of substance Type of particle Attractive forces between particles KCl (s) potassium chloride ionic ion Ionic bonds / electrostatic attraction SiO(s) silicon dioxide Covalent network atoms covalent Cu(s) copper metal atom Metallic bonds / electrostatic attraction Equilibrium Temperature QUESTION Question: In a reaction, the brown gas nitrogen dioxide, NO(g), exists in equilibrium with the colourless gas dinitrogen tetroxide, NO4(g). The equation for this reaction is represented by: NO(g) NO4(g) brown gas colourless gas The table below shows the observations when changes were made to the system. Analyse these experimental observations. In your answer you should: link all of the observations to equilibrium principles justify whether the formation of dinitrogen tetro xide from nitrogen dioxide is endothermic or exothermic. 1. For the first substance (name). describe the structure of this type of substance using the terms above 3. explain how the bonding relates to the attraction between particles in your substance and water particles 4. link to the observation (solubility) in your question for the first substance 5. For the second substance (name) 6. describe the structure of this type of substance using the terms above KCl(s) potassium chloride is an ionic solid. KCl is made up of positive K + ions, and negative Cl ions, ionically bonded in a 3D lattice. When added to water, polar water molecules form electrostatic attractions with the K + and Cl ions. The partial negative charge,, on oxygen atoms in water are attracted to the K + ions and the partial positive, +, charges on the H s in water are attracted to the Cl ions, causing KCl to dissolve in water, and therefore be soluble SiO(s) silicon dioxide is a covalent network solid. SiO(s) is made up of atoms covalently bonded together in a 3D lattice structure. 7. explain how the bonding relates (Covalent bonds are strong), Polar water molecules are not strong / to the attraction between particles in insufficiently attracted to the Si and O atoms, your substance and water particles 8. link to the observation (solubility) therefore SiO is insoluble in water. in your question for the second substance 9. For the third substance (name) Cu(s) copper is a metallic solid. 10. describe the structure of this type of substance using the terms above Cu(s) is made up of an array of atoms (or ions) held together by non-directional forces between the positive nuclei of the atoms and the delocalised / free moving valence electrons. 11. explain how the bonding relates There is no attraction between the copper atoms and the (polar) water to the attraction between particles in molecules, your substance and water particles 1. link to the observation (solubility) therefore Cu is insoluble in water. in your question for the third substance State the equilibrium principle When a change is made to a system that is at equilibrium, the system responds to reduce the effect of that change.. Describe the factor in your question AND Link the principle to how the system responds to cooling or heating 3. Generally, explain which side of the equation is favoured (relate to endothermic or exothermic) 4. Specifically, for your reaction with heating, link the observation to which direction of reaction would be favoured (endothermic or exothermic) 5. Describe how the system shift in heating would affect which products are made AND final observation. The factor in the question above is temperature. If there is an increase in temperature, the system responds by absorbing more (heat) energy. If there is a decrease in temperature, the system responds by releasing more (heat) energy. With Heating (increasing temperature) this occurs by favouring the reaction, either forward or reverse direction, that is endothermic. With cooling (decreasing temperature) this occurs by favouring the reaction, either forward or reverse direction, that is exothermic. With heating In this case, the colour darkened, indicating that this favoured the reverse reaction, which must be the endothermic direction. So more NO(g), nitrogen dioxide, which is a brown gas, would be formed and there would be less NO4(g) dinitrogen tetroxide, which is a colourless gas 6. Specifically, for your reaction with With cooling In this case, the colour lightened, indicating that this favoured the cooling, link the observation to which forward reaction, which must be the exothermic direction. direction of reaction would be favoured (endothermic or exothermic) 7. Describe how the system shift in cooling would affect which products are made AND final observation. So more NO4(g) dinitrogen tetroxide, which is a colourless gas would be formed and there would be less NO(g), nitrogen dioxide, which is a brown gas, sentences. The grey area is just to help you structure your answer and would not appear in the questi on.

Final value will have no units 3. Write down the Kc value and Since Kc = 4.3, Q Kc, so this reaction mixture is not at equilibrium. compare with the Q value stating whether it is equal or not (and therefore is or is not at equilibrium) 4. Link the Q value as either being bigger (and lying to the products side as the numerator is greater) OR as being smaller (and lying to the reactants side as the numerator is smaller) This number is greater than the Kc value, 4.3, which indicates that the reaction lies to the products side as the larger the Kc or Q value, the greater the numerator (products). 8 5

The following experiments were carried out, and the times taken for the cross to disappear recorded. Elaborate on why the reaction in Experiment 3 occurs faster than the reaction in Experiment state the collision theory Chemical reactions between particles of substances only occur when the following conditions have been met: Particles must collide with enough energy (called activation energy EA) and with the correct orientation. If these conditions are met, the collision will be considered successful.. Describe the reactants in your reaction and state which factors are the same In the reaction of experiment 1 and experiment 3, both are carried out under the same temperature. (we assume the concentration is also the same) 3. Describe the reactants in your reaction and state which factor is different (the factor affecting reaction rate) 4. link the factor to the collision theory 5. link the reaction to more of the collisions being successful occurring per unit of time 6. link to more products (name products) being formed per unit of time AND link to a faster reaction rate 7. summarize the reaction with the slower reaction rate The only change is the addition of a catalyst in Experiment 3 compared to experiment 1. An added catalyst means a faster rate of reaction. Particles must collide with enough energy to overcome the activation energy of the reaction. The activation energy is the energy that is required to start a reaction. When a catalyst is used, the activation energy is lowered. This is because the catalyst provides an alternative pathway for the reaction to occur in which the activation energy is lowered. Now that the activation energy has been lowered, more reactant particles will collide with sufficient energy to overcome this lowered activation energy therefore more effective collisions are occurring more frequently. Experiment 3 will produce more products initially resulting in the solution turning cloudy and the cross disappearing quicker (5s compared to 4s), resulting in a faster reaction rate Experiment 1 has no catalyst so will take longer to react (cross to disappear) as less of the collisions are effective, so will have a slower rate of reaction than experiment Explain that both reactions will Both reactions will eventually produce the same amount of products if the produce the same amount of product same amounts of each reactant are used. eventually as they started with the same amount of reactants 4 9 Writing Excellence answers to Reaction rate Factors Surface Area questions Reaction Rate Factors Surface Area QUESTION Question: Compare and contrast the reactions of 0.5 g of magnesium ribbon, Mg(s), with 50.0 ml of mol L 1 hydrochloric acid, HCl(aq), and 0.5 g of magnesium powder, Mg(s), with 50.0 ml of mol L 1 hydrochloric acid, HCl(aq). Refer to collision theory and rates of reaction in your answer. 1. state the collision theory Chemical reactions between particles of substances only occur when the following conditions have been met: Particles must collide with enough energy ( called activation energy EA) and with the correct orientation.

Describe the reactants in your reaction and state which factor is different (the factor affecting reaction rate) In the reaction of hydrochloric acid with Mg ribbon and Mg powder, both form the same products, magnesium chloride and hydrogen gas. Mg(s) + HCl(aq) MgCl(aq) + H(g) The concentration and amount of the hydrochloric acid is the same in both reactions as is the mass of magnesium. (we assume the temperature is also the same) However, since Mg powder has a larger surface area than Mg ribbon 4. link the factor to the collision theory the powder will have more Mg particles immediately available to collide than the magnesium ribbon 5. link the reaction to more successful collisions occurring per unit of time And therefore there will be more effective collisions per second (unit of time) 6. link to more products (name products) being formed per unit of time AND link to a faster reaction rate 7. summarize the reaction with the slower reaction rate and more H gas will be produced initially in the magnesium powder, resulting in a faster rate of reaction. Mg ribbon will take longer to react because fewer particles are immediately available to collide, so will have a slower rate of reaction. 8. Explain that both reactions will produce the same amount of product eventually as they started with the same amount of reactants Both reactions will eventually produce the same volume of hydrogen gas as the same amounts of each reactant are used. 11

Watch for double or triple bonds as these are separate (Draw Lewis structures if not given). write bond type for each reactant (bonds broken) and product (bonds formed). Watch for double and triple bonds as they are different. Cross off on lewis diagram as you go AN SWER Bonds broken (reactants) Bond type number enthalpy Bonds formed (products) Total enthalpy Bond type number enthalpy Total enthalpy C=C C-C C-H C-H write the enthalpy of each bond type and multiply by number Br-Br C-Br total enthalpy and calculate enthalpy change (sign, units and 3sgf) Total Enthalpy (bonds broken) rho = Bond energies(bonds broken) Bond energies(bonds formed) Total enthalpy = = - 109kJ mol-1 6. you may have to rearrange equation if enthalpy for a bond is required rho = Bond enthalpy (bonds broken) Bond enthalpy (bonds formed) Not needed 3. write the number of each bond type beside 463kJ Total enthalpy (bonds broken) 57kJ. Describe the reactants in your reaction and state which factors are the same 3. Describe the reactants in your reaction and state which factor is different (the factor affecting reaction rate) 4. link the factor to the collision theory (activation energy) AN SWER Chemical reactions between particles of substances only occur when the following conditions have been met: Particles must collide with enough energy (called activation energy EA) and with the correct orientation. If these conditions are met, the collision will be considered successful. In the reaction of experiment 1 and experiment, both have no catalyst added.(we assume the concentration is also the same) The only change is an increase in temperature in Experiment compared to experiment. An increase in temperature means a faster rate of reaction. The activation energy is the energy that is required to start a reaction. When the temperature is higher, the particles have more kinetic energy. 5. link the reaction to more of the collisions being successful occurring per unit of time 6. next link the factor to the collision theory (faster moving particles) because the particles are moving with more kinetic energy, it will be more likely that when collisions occur they are more likely to be effective as a greater proportion of collisions overcome the activation energy of the reaction. When the temperature is higher, the particles have more kinetic energy; the particles are moving faster 7. link the reaction to more successful collisions occurring per unit of time 8. link to more products (name products) being formed per unit of time AND link to a faster reaction rate 9. summarize the reaction with the slower reaction rate Because the particles are moving faster, there will be also more frequent collisions. Experiment has more effective collisions per unit of time. (than experiment 1. Experiment will produce more products initially resulting in the solution turning cloudy and the cross disappearing quicker (3s compared to 4s), resulting in a faster reaction rate Experiment 1 is at a lower temperature so will take longer to react (cross to disappear) as the particles are moving slower than in experiment 1, so will have a slower rate of reaction. 10. Explain that both reactions will Both reactions will eventually produce the same amount of products if the produce the same amount of product same amounts of each reactant are used. eventually as they started with the same amount of reactants

In your answer, you should: identify the test reagents used describe any observations that would be made identify the type of reaction that occurs identify the organic product of any reaction. You do not need to include equations in your answer. Test reagents used start with CrO7 / H + adding a bit to each sample Step 1 Observations - which will turn from orange to green with ethanol No change for the other 3 samples Type of reaction that occurs - oxidation Organic product of any reaction - ethanol is oxidised to ethanoic acid. Writing Excellence answers to Cis-Trans Isomers questions Cis-Trans Isomers QUESTION Question: Molecule D can exist as geometric (cis and trans) isomers, with both isomers having the same molecular formula. Draw the geometric (cis and trans) isomers for molecule D in the boxes below. Justify why molecule D can exist as geometric (cis and trans) isomers. Your answer should include: an explanation of the requirements for cis and trans isomers reference to the structure of molecule D. 1. Draw the cis and trans isomers If you need to select the molecule make sure that it has both: a C=C double bond and different groups of each C Cis Trans Step Step 3. Step 4. Test reagents used - add sodium carbonate solution, NaCO3(aq). to the remaining 3 samples Observations - Bubbles of gas will be produced in the ethanoic acid sample No change for the other samples Type of reaction that occurs acid-base reaction Organic product of any reaction in the acid-base reaction Sodium ethanoate / ethanoate ion is formed. Test reagents used add bromine water, Br(aq) to the remaining samples Observations - the bromine water, which turns from red / brown to colourless straightaway in the hex--ene sample No change for the other sample (for substitution in an alkane this reaction will be seen slowly with UV light as a catalyst) Type of reaction that occurs addition reaction Organic product of any reaction in the addition reaction It will form,3- dibromohexane is formed Test reagents used - Hexan-1-amine will be the chemical left over that will not react with any of the given reagents. Observations (in other questions red litmus paper can be used which will turn blue for an amine) Type of reaction that occurs Organic product of any reaction (name of molecules not normally required as part of the question). link the presence of a double C=C bond to lack of rotation 3. link the requirement of two different groups of each of the C on the double 4. link the requirements above to your specific molecule (D) Name: cis 1-chlorobut-1-ene Name: trans 1-chlorobut-1-ene For cis and trans isomers to occur a carbon-carbon double bond must be present as this prevents any rotation about this bond, and the atoms or groups of atoms attached to the two carbon atoms are therefore fixed in position. They must also have two different groups attached to each carbon (involved in the double bond). This molecule has a carbon-carbon double bond. One carbon of the double bond is attached to a hydrogen atom and an ethyl group. The other is attached to a hydrogen atom and a chlorine atom. 5. Explain how two geometric When these two requirements are met, the two haloalkenes can have the isomers can have the same molecular same molecular formula and the same sequence of atoms in the formula, but a formula different arrangement in space (a different 3D formula), hence they are cis and trans isomers Writing Excellence answers to Alkene Reactions questions Writing Excellence answers to Polymers questions Alkene Reactions QUESTION Question: Ethene, CH4(g), reacts with aqueous potassium permanganate solution, KMnO4(aq), dilute acid, HO / H +, and hydrogen bromide, HBr. Compare and contrast the reactions of ethene gas with each of these three reagents. In your answer, you should: describe any observations that can be made identify, with reasons, the type of reaction ethene undergoes with each reagent describe the functional group of the products formed include equations showing the structural formulae for the organic compounds for each reaction. Reaction 1 Observations - The purple KMnO4 turns colourless (or brown) Ethene, CH4(g) reacts with aqueous potassium permanganate solution, KMnO4(aq), Reaction Ethene, CH4(g) reacts with dilute acid, HO / H + Reaction 3 Ethene, CH4(g) reacts with hydrogen bromide, HBr. Reaction type - This is an oxidation or addition reaction in which the double bond is broken and two OH groups attach to each C atom of the double bond. Functional group of products Ethene reacts with aqueous KMnO4 to form a diol, ethan-1,-diol. Observations - No colour changes are observed in this reaction. (colourless to colourless) Reaction type -This is an addition reaction as once again the double bond is broken. However, in this reaction one OH group and one H atom attach to each C atom of the double bond. Functional group of products Ethene reacts with dilute acid, HO / H +, to form ethanol. Observations - Again there is no colour change observed. (colourless to colourless) Reaction type - This reaction is an addition reaction, as the double bond is broken and two atoms are added to each C atom of the double bond. In this reaction one H and one Br atom are added. Functional group of products When ethene reacts with hydrogen bromide, bromoethane is formed. Polymers QUESTION Question: Draw TWO repeating units of the polymer formed in Reaction 5. Explain why the formation of the polymer from its monomer is classified as an addition polymerisation reaction. Compare and contrast the polymer formed in Reaction 5 to the polymer formed in Reaction 3. In your answer you should explain why the polymers formed in these two reactions are different. 1. Identify the monomer, then draw the polymer (identify C 1 and C in monomer either side of the double bond then draw a chain of C (4 for repeating units) and add on groups of each one removing double bond). explain the definition of addition polymerisation 3. molecule 1 (reaction 5) describe the groups of each end of the double bonded carbons 4. molecule (reaction 3) describe the groups of each end of the double bonded carbons monomer reaction 5 CH 3-CH -CH -CH=CH reaction 3 CH 3-CH -CH=CH-CH 3 polymer C1 C C1 C C1 Since the monomer for this reaction is an alkene, when polymerisation occurs, the double bond in each alkene molecule is broken, freeing up a bonding space on each of the C atoms that was part of the double bond. This allows the monomers to join together by forming covalent bonds to make the polymer. Since double bonds in the alkene are being broken and molecules added into the freed up bonding spaces to make the monomer, this is an addition reaction. Polymerisation reactions occur when many monomers are chemically joined. In Reaction 3, the polymer formed will have a carbon with one hydrogen and a methyl group, and a carbon with one hydrogen and an ethyl group, as its repeating unit, due to the double bond being on the C position. In Reaction 5, since the double bond is in a different position (the C1 position), the polymer formed will have as its repeating unit a carbon atom with hydrogen atoms attached, and a carbon atom with one hydrogen attached and a propyl group attached. C Summary of the three reactions All three reactions involve the breaking of the double bond. All three reactions involve addition (adding atoms on) Two of these reactions are addition reactions and one is an oxidation reaction. Only one of the reactions gives a colour change that is easily observed. 5. Explain that molecule 1 and are structural isomers but have the same molecular formula The molecular formulae of the two repeating units of both polymers are the same, but the structural formulae are different. (States repeating units are structural isomers.) 18 15

8 Writing Excellence answers to Physical Properties of Organic Compounds questions Solubility - Physical Properties of Organic Compounds QUESTION Question: Explain why two layers form in Reaction One. Hexane reacts with bromine water 1. Identify the functional group of your substance (hexane) and name the product formed. Hexane is an alkane, with single bonded carbons. When reacting with bromine water it will form a haloalkane (bromohexane) during a substitution reaction Writing Excellence answers to Major and Minor products questions Major and Minor Products QUESTION Question: In Reaction 1, propan--ol can be converted to propene. In Reaction, propene can be converted back to propan--ol. Analyse BOTH of these reactions by: describing the reagents and conditions needed for each reaction to occur identifying each type of reaction and explaining your choice explaining why Reaction 1 forms only a single organic product, but Reaction forms a mixture of organic products.. link observation (layers forming) to the polarity of the substance 3. identify the polarity of the bromine water and link to the substances being immiscible (forming layers) Two layers form in Reaction One as hexane is non-polar and the product (bromohexane) is effectively also non-polar. The water from the bromine water is polar and therefore the non-polar organic reactant and product will not dissolve in the water; because of this, two layers form as this polar and non-polar layer do not mix. 1. Reaction 1 Propan -ol forms propene Reagent and conditions -To convert propan--ol to propene, add concentrated sulfuric acid (which is a dehydrating agent). Reaction type - It is an elimination reaction because OH and H are removed from adjacent carbon atoms and a double bond is created to form an alkene. Structural Formula Melting point - Physical Properties of Organic Compounds QUESTION Question: Identify the trends shown on the graph. Identify which alkanes will be gases at room temperature (0 C) according to the graph beside.. Reaction Propene forms propanol Label each structure with name and whether it is major or minor Reagent type and conditions - To convert propene to propan--ol, add dilute (sulfuric) acid. Reaction type - This is an addition reaction because the double bond is broken forming a C-C (single) bond, allowing H and OH from water to bond to the C atoms that were double bonded together. Structural Formula 1. link the boiling point trend to number of carbons in both groups (when explaining trends on a line graph always relate one variable to the other). Identify which alkanes (number of carbons) are gases at room temp. (will have boiling point below 0 C) The boiling points of both alkanes and alcohols increase as the number of C atoms increases. The boiling points of alcohols are always higher than the alkanes (with the same number of C atoms). Alkanes with 1,, 3, and 4 C atoms (methane, ethane, propane, and butane) will be gases at room temperature Explain why reaction one forms only one product linked to symmetry 4. State Markovnikov s rule AND Explain the reason reaction two produces two products linked to Markovnikov s rule and asymmetry, including which is major and which is minor. 19 Product type: Major Name: Propan--ol Product type: Minor Name: Propan-1-ol Reaction 1 forms only one product because the carbon atom from which the H is removed (C1 or C3) does not affect the structure of the product as propan--ol is symmetrical. Reaction produces two products because an asymmetric reagent (H-OH) adds onto an asymmetric alkene (CH3CH=CH). There are two carbons that the H or OH can bond with (C1 and C), so there are two possible combinations. We can predict which will be the major product by using Markovnikov s rule, which states that the carbon with the most hydrogens gains more hydrogens. This means that most of the time, C1 will get another hydrogen while C will get the OH in this reaction. Propan--ol will be the major product and propan-1-ol the minor product.
