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 6 / 20 6. 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 7 / 20 7. 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 8 / 20 8. 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. 9 / 20 9.

H2(g) + Cl2(g) → 2HCl(g) What is the final volume of the gas mixture when 20 dm3 of hydrogen is reacted with 30 dm3 of chlorine gas at 100 C? 40 dm3 50 dm3 60 dm3 70 dm3 H2(g) + Cl2(g) → 2HCl(g) hydrogen gas is limiting reagent. Cl2 gas is excess by 10 dm3 Vol of HCl produced = 2 x 20 dm3 = 40 dm3 Final volume = 40 + 10 = 50 dm3 12 / 20 12. Which of the following statements about a homologous series is correct? The melting and boiling point increases with increasing relative molecular mass. The members have similar physical properties. The members have the same molecular formula. The relative molecular masses of consecutive members differ by 12. The physical properties of members show a trend 13 / 20 13. Which property of elements increases from left to right of Period 3 of the Periodic Table? number of outer shells metallic character tendency to get reduced melting points As you move from left to right across a period, the number of protons in the nucleus increases, which leads to a stronger attraction for electrons. This increased attraction makes it more difficult for an atom to lose electrons, 14 / 20 14.

Its oxide is basic. 16 / 20 16. 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 17. Elements X and Y combine to form an ionic compound. Atoms of X have more protons than atoms of Y. Atoms of Y have more valence electrons than atoms of X. Which statement is correct? Ions of X are negatively charged. Atoms of X have more electron shells than atoms of Y. X and Y are in the same period of the Periodic Table. X and Y are in the same group of the Periodic Table. X and Y, one is metal, one is non-metal. since Y has more valence then X is metal and Y is non-metal and X has more electron shell since it has protons. 18 / 20 18.
