CHAPTER 2

QuestionAnswer
Name a reaction that is reversible? CuSo4.5H2O - CuSO4 + 5H2O
Name a reaction that is not a reversible reaction? Combustion of alkanes
Heating pink cobalt chloride crystals forms a blue solid and steam. The blue solid turns pink when water is added. Describe the pink cobalt chloride and the reaction? Pink cobalt chloride hydrate and the action is reversible
Name a reaction that will result in a decrease in pH? Adding citric acid to sodium hydrogen carbonate solution
When blue copper sulfate is heated, a white solid and water are formed. The white solid turns blue and gives out heat when water is added to it. Describe the blue copper sulfate and the reactions? The blue copper sulfate hydrate and the reaction can be reversed
One of the instructions for an experiment reads as follows. Quickly add 50cm³ of acid. What is the best piece of apparatus is use? A measuring cylinder
What is a burette? The burette measures the volume of liquid added in a titration.
A student measures the rate of two reactions. One reaction there is a change in mass of the reactants during the reaction. Second reaction there is a change in temperature during the reaction. Which piece of apparatus would be essential in both? A Clock
A student was provided with only a thermometer, a stopwatch and a beaker. What could the student measure? 25 degrees Celsius and 45 seconds
A student carries out an experiment to find how fast 3 cm pieces of magnesium ribbon dissolve in 10cm³ samples of sulfuric acid at different temperatures. Which piece of apparatus does the student not need? Balance
A student takes 2 g samples of calcium carbonate and adds them to 20cm³ samples of dilute hydrochloride acid at different temperatures. She measures how long it takes for the effervescence to stop. Which apparatus does she use? Balance, Clock, Measuring cylinder and Thermometer
During a reaction the following changes take place. The temperature rises and a gas is given off. Which apparatus is required to measure the rate of this reaction? Gas syringe and stop clock
The results of some tests on a colourless liquid X are shown. Boiling point = 102°C and universal indicator turns green. What is liquid X? Sodium chloride salt solution
A blue solid, X, is soluble in water. Which method is used to obtain pure solid X from an aqueous solution? Crystalisation
Ethanol is made by fermentation. How is ethanol obtained from the fermentation mixture? Fractional distillation
Alcohol and water are completely miscible. This means when mixed together they form only one liquid layer. Which method is used to separate alcohol from water? Fractional distillation
Which two methods can be used to separate a salt from its solution in water? Crystalisation and distillation
A mixture of sulfur and iron fillings needs to be separated. What are possible methods of separating the sulfur and iron fillings? Using carbon disulfide and using a magnet
Which method is most suitable to obtain zinc carbonate from a suspension of zinc carbonate in water? Filtration
Mixture 1 contains sand and water. Mixture 2 contains salt and water. Which method of separation could be used to obtain each of the required products from each mixture? Mixture 1 - To obtain sand and water filtration Mixture 2 - To obtain salt Crystalisation and water distillation
A mixture of ethanol and methanol are separated by fractional distillation. The method of separation depends on a difference in property X of these two alcohols. What is property X? Boiling point
A fruit drink coloured orange contains a dissolved mixture of red and yellow colouring agents. One of these colouring agents is suspected of being illegal. Which method could be used to show the presence of this illegal colouring agent? Chromatography
A student carries out an experiment to prepare pure magnesium sulfate crystals. He adds magnesium carbonate until no more reacts. Which process should he use for the next stage? Filtration
A student separates salt from a mixture of salt and sand. What is the correct order of steps for the student to take? Shake with water Filter Evaporate
Describe how to separate Copper powder from a mixture containing copper and zinc powders? Sodium and oxide to form calsium
