Sample Questions
Sample Question 1
Know the names of some processes in water treatment.
Give the name of the processes (in order) that are used to treat natural water.
Storage
Filtration and screening
Aeration
Sterilization
Sample Question 2
Test for the purity of water: melting / boiling point measurement.
How would you show that a liquid is pure water?
By determining its boiling point (100C) and/or freezing point (0C).
Any pure material must have a sharp, fixed and definite freezing point and boiling point.
So if the liquid boils at a fixed 100C and/or freezes at a fixed 0C then it is pure water.
Sample Question 3
Test for water
a) Test for the presence of water: Use of anhydrous CuSO4 / CoCl2.
What color changes occur when anhydrous CuSO 4 / CoCl2 are treated with water?
Anhydrous copper (II) sulphate, CuSO 4 changes from white to blue
Anhydrous cobalt (II) chloride, CoCl 2 changes from blue to pink
b) Know equations for reaction of water with anhydrous CuSO4 / CoCl2.
What reactions occur when anhydrous CuSO4 / CoCl2 are treated with water?
CuSO4 (s) + 5 H2O (l)
CuSO4.5H2O
