O Levels G3 Combined Chemistry Paper 1 mock Name 1 / 20 A student investigated the diffusion of ammonia gas, NH3, and hydrogen chloride gas, HCl. Two sets of apparatus were set up as shown below at room temperature and pressure. The damp red litmus paper in apparatus 1 changed colour after 30 seconds. How long does it take for the damp blue litmus paper to change colour in apparatus 2? about 21 seconds about 30 seconds about 64 seconds The blue litmus paper would not change colour. Molar mass of ammonia NH3 = 14+3 =17g molar mass of HCl = 1 +35.5 = 36.5 g HCl will take longer to diffuse as it has a higher molar mass 2 / 20 Which of the following hydrocarbons would produce the sootiest flame when burnt in air? CH4 C4H10 C8H18 C12H26 The more C atoms in the molecule, the more soot (unburnt hydrocarbon) will be produced 3 / 20 Three elements W, X, Y, and Z have consecutive, increasing proton (atomic) numbers. Element Y exists as a colourless, monatomic gas at room temperature. Which will be the chemical formula of a compound formed between W and chlorine? WCl W2Cl WCl2 W2Cl3 Y would be noble gas and thus W is in group 16 with 6 valence electrons and need 2 more Cl has 7 valence and need 1 more so the formula will be WCl2 4 / 20 A reaction takes place in two stages in the presence of a catalyst: Which ion is the catalyst in the reaction? Fe^2+ (aq) I^– (aq) SO4^2– (aq) S2O8^2– (aq) The catalyst must remain unchanged at the end of the reaction. 5 / 20 Ammonia and excess carbon dioxide can react to form urea and water in a reaction. 2NH3 + CO2 → CON2H4 + H2O The percentage yield of this reaction is 80 %. What is the mass of ammonia required for this reaction to obtain 60.0 g of urea? [Mr: NH3, 17; CO2, 44; CON2H4, 60; H2O, 18] 10.6 g 27.2 g 34.0 g 42.5 g Molar mass of urea = 60g --> 1 mole 100/80 x 1 = 1.25 mole of urea mole of ammonia = 1.25 x 2 = 2.5 mole mass of ammonia = 2.5 x 17g = 42.5g 6 / 20 How many of the following processes will lead to an increase in greenhouse gas emissions? 1 2 3 4 decomposition -> give out carbon dioxide fermentation -> give our carbon dioxide photosynthesis -> take in carbon dioxide polymerisation -> none, maybe water respiration -> give out carbon dioxide neutralisation -> only salt and water 7 / 20 A solution of a lithium halide and a halogen are mixed. A reaction occurs and the mixture darkens in colour. What are the reactants? bromine and lithium chloride iodine and lithium fluoride chlorine and lithium iodide chlorine and lithium fluoride Since the solution darken, there must be displacement. 8 / 20 When crude oil is fractionally distilled, which list best describes the mixture of compounds collected at the bottom of the fractionating column? Short chain molecules, low viscosity, high flammability Short chain molecules, low boiling point, low flammability Long chain molecules, high flammability, high boiling point Long chain molecules, high viscosity, high boiling point The molecules with the greatest molar mass and longest chain are collected at the bottom. They have the highest boiling point and are hard to ignite 9 / 20 Aqueous hydrogen peroxide decomposes to form water and oxygen gas. Two experiments were carried out to measure the rate of production of oxygen from aqueous hydrogen peroxide. A B C D Experiment B has more starting reactant but lower concentration than A. Therefore, the curve will be less steep but finish higher. 10 / 20 Water is formed when oxygen combines with hydrogen. What mass of oxygen combines with 6 g of hydrogen? 12 g 48 g 96 g 144 g 2H2 + O2 --> 2H2O for H2, 1 mole --> 2g 6 g of hydrogen = 3 mole H2 : O2 2 : 1 3 mole : 1.5 mole 1.5 mole of O2 = 32 x 1.5 = 48g 11 / 20 Which statement explains why sodium chloride, NaCl, has a lower melting point than magnesium oxide, MgO? Sodium chloride has a simple molecular structure while magnesium oxide has a giant ionic structure. Sodium is more reactive than magnesium. The attraction between Na+ and Cl− is weaker than that between Mg2+ and O2−. The particles in sodium chloride are more closely packed than in magnesium oxide. Both compounds are giant ionic structures. But the magnesium ion charge is 2+ while the sodium ion is 1+. Thus, the electrostatic forces holding the ions together are stronger in magnesium chloride 12 / 20 Which statement does not explain why the speed of the reaction between zinc and dilute sulfuric acid increases when the acid is warmed? The particles are moving faster as they gain more energy. The activation energy of the reaction decreases. The particles are colliding more frequently. More particles have sufficient energy required for the reaction. An alternative pathway with lower activation energy is only provided by a catalyst, not a higher temperature 13 / 20 A warship had its hull plated in copper to protect its wooden hull from rotting. However, after 2 years at sea, it was found that the iron parts of the warship in contact with the copper plates were more corroded than normal. What is the best explanation for this observation? Copper acts as a catalyst to speed up corrosion. Copper reacts with the iron to increase corrosion. Iron displaces copper to form iron(III) oxide. Iron is more reactive and corrodes in place of copper. Iron is above copper in the reactivity series. Iron will readily give away electrons to copper. Thus, iron will ionize easily to react with the oxygen in the air to rust. 14 / 20 Which equations below represent redox reactions? 1. H+ + OH− → H2O 2. MnO4− + 8H+ + 5e− → Mn2+ + 4H2O 3. Cl2 + 2Br −→ Br2 + 2Cl − 1 only 3 only 1 and 2 only 2 and 3 only neutralisation ( not redox) redox redox 15 / 20 Which element does not form a stable ion with the same electronic configuration as neon? Magnesium Fluorine Sodium Sulfur Sulfur is 2,8,6 so when it form an ion, it will be 2,8,8 which is the electron configuration of Argon 16 / 20 Lead(IV) chloride has a melting point of -15 °C and boiling point of 50 °C. Which type of structure do you expect lead(IV) chloride to have? a simple molecular structure with weak covalent bonds a simple molecular structure with weak intermolecular forces of attraction between molecules a giant molecular structure with strong covalent bonds between atoms a giant ionic crystal lattice structure with strong electrostatic forces of attraction Since the melting point and boiling point are low, it should be a simple molecular structure with weak intermolecular forces of attraction that can be overcome easily. 17 / 20 The flowchart shows some reactions of a compound T.
