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 2 / 20 2. The diagram shows the apparatus used to separate hexane (boiling point, 70 oC) and heptane (boiling point, 98 oC). A B C D Heptane vapour will condense as it reaches the fractionating column; only hexane vapour will reach the condenser. As the thermometer will only measure the inlet of the condenser, the measured temperature will be constant at the boiling point of hexane until all the hexane has vaporized. 3 / 20 3. Francium, Fr, is an element in the same group of the Periodic Table as lithium, sodium and potassium. Which statement about francium is likely to be correct? It forms a carbonate Fr2CO3. It forms coloured compounds. It reacts slowly with cold water. It is produced from the electrolysis of aqueous francium chloride. Use sodium or potassium as guide. Only extraction with electrolysis is true 4 / 20 4. Which diagram best represents the structure of calcium oxide? A B C D Ca is cation and O is anion.

Heavy water is made up of 2 deuterium( Hydrogen atoms with mass number 2) atoms and 1 oxygen atom. Which properties are true about heavy water? 1 Its boiling point is higher than 100 °C. 2. It reacts with sodium to form sodium hydroxide and hydrogen gas. 3 It can act as a solvent for sodium chloride. 1 only 2 and 3 only 1, 2 and 3 none of the above Heavy water has a higher molar mass as compared to normal water, and the boiling point will be slightly higher. Howeve,r most of the chemical properties will be similar. 9 / 20 9. 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. 10 / 20 10. The structure of brass is shown below. What is the purpose of adding zinc to copper? to make the packing of atoms more compact to strengthen the metallic bonds between copper atoms to prevent layers of copper atoms from sliding over each other easily to prevent the ‘sea of electrons’ from moving freely in the metal lattice Adding zinc atoms to copper disrupts the orderly arrangement, which prevents layers of copper atoms from sliding over each other easily. The effect is that the alloy is now harder and stronger than pure copper. 11 / 20 11. 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. 12 / 20 12.

Ink 4 is more soluble than ink 3 in the solvent used. Inks 1 and 2 contained more than one colour pigment. The ink mixture contained inks 1, 3 and 4. The Rf value of ink 3 in the solvent used is more than 0.5. The further the ink moved from the starting line, the more soluble it is in this solvent 17 / 20 17.

All of them 1 only 1 and 4 only 1, 2 and 3 only aqueous bromine --> change colourless/no change Universal Indicator solution --> turns orange/ green magnesium powder --> no change/effervescence sodium carbonate --> no change/effervescence 19 / 20 19. 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. 20 / 20 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 Your score isThe average score is 85% 0% Restart quiz
