Condense er allows unrea acted M and N that have boil led off to conve ert back into liquid state. The cond denser is positioned vertically y so that liquid M and N coul ld flow back in nto the boiling flask and d continue react ting with each other. Barium sulphate s is inso oluble. Alkaline gases turn red litmus paper b blue. w in damp litmus l paper to o form ammoni ium hydroxide, which is Ammonia reacts with water alkaline. mus to red then n bleach. Chlorine turns blue litm Cation to o anion ratio in ionic crystal lattice must sho ow stoichiomet try of the comp pound. Giant cov valent compou und is insoluble e in water. Electroni ic configuration n of O: 2.6 2.8 by providin ng 2 electrons to be stable Electroni ic configuration n of F: 2.7 2 2.8 by providin ng 1 electron to o be stable Electroni ic configuration n of C: 2.4 2.8 by providin ng 4 electrons to be stable P-Q: Cha ange in temperature, average kinetic energy y of molecules increases. Q-R: No change in tem mperature, change in state occu urs. Melting ta akes place at 0 C. R-S: Rise e in temperatur re of water at li iquid state. T-U: Boi iling, change in n state, occurs at a fixed temp perature 100C C. Only opti ion A consists of one insolub ble (calcium ca arbonate) and o one soluble (sod dium chloride) ) salt. Sublimat tion is the chan nge from solid to gaseous stat te. Mercury is a liquid at room m temperature. . Mr of nit trogen and carb bon monoxide is the same.

Since Q and a S have diff fferent increase e in mass, no. of o electrons req quired to discha arge each cation in both cells wou uld be different t. This implies oxidation state e of cation in both b cells is different and therefore different d eleme ent and atomic c mass. I: melting g is endotherm mic. II: boiling g id endotherm mic III: comb bustion is exoth hermic IV: condensation is exo othermic Largest in nitial concentr ration gives fas stest initial rate e of reaction. r.com.sg. all rights r reserved. exampaper

C: all car rbonates are ins soluble in wate er except sodiu um, potassium and ammonium m carbonates. D: zinc oxide o reacts wit th sulphuric ac cid to form salt t and water only y. Copper is s less reactive than iron. Ther refore, iron dis splaces copper ions from its solution, s resulting in copper depo osit.

Combust tion of fuels in cars and powe er stations prod duces carbon di ioxide. Plants ne eed to take in carbon dioxide for photosynth hesis. Carbon in n glucose comes from carbon in n CO2. 6CO2 + 12H 1 20 C6H12O6 + 6O2 + 6H2O Syllabus states that para affin (kerosene e) is used as a fuel f for heating g and cooking and for aircraft engines. A: R, S and a T contain 4 carbons. B: Alkyl group (CH3) attached a to last carbon atom in n linear chain i is not consider red as branched d chain. C: S is bu ut-2-ene. General formula f of alka ane is CnH2n+2 Combust tion hydrocarbo on in excess ox xygen gives ca arbon dioxide and a water only. . Therefore, X is CO2. Alkenes decolourise d bro omine spontan neously because e of C=C bond d. Therefore, Y is ethane. Nylon is polyamide, wh hich must cont tain amide link kage. Terylene is polyester, which w must con ntain ester linka age. Esterifica ation involves removal r of one e mole of H2O. (-OH from ac cid and H from m alcohol) Mg + 2C CH3COOH (CH ( 3COO)2Mg g + H2
