CHAPTER 8

QuestionAnswer
Which property is not characteristic of a base? It reacts with a carbonate to form carbon dioxide
Which property is not characteristic of a base? It reacts with a carbonate to form carbon dioxide

True or false: When the acidity of a solution increases, the pH increases False
Name one reaction is not characteristic of an acid It produces ammonia from ammonium compounds
Name the equation for the reaction between sodium carbonate and dilute hydrochloric acid? Na2CO3(s) + 2HCl (aq) → 2NaCl (aq) + CO2(g) + H2O(I)
Which substance is the most acidic? Substance - Lemon juice pH is 4
A colourless solution is tested by the following reactions. Which reaction is not characteristic of an acid? Copper oxide powder is added and the mixed is warmed. The solution turns blue
Name two statements about alkalis? When tested with litmus, the litmus turns blue. When warmed with an ammonium salt, ammonia gas is given off

Carbon dioxide is produced when X reacts with ethanol. Y reacts with sodium carbonate. What are X and Y? X - O2 Y - HCl
A white solid is insoluble in water. When it is added to hydrochloric acid, bubbles of gas are formed. Adding aqueous ammonia formed gives a white precipitate. Adding excess aqueous ammonia causes the precipitate to re-dissolve. What is the white solid? Zinc carbonate
Which two compounds give a white precipitate when their aqueous solutions are mixed? Silver nitrate and sodium chloride
Two tests are done to identify an aqueous solution of X. test 1 Aqueous sodium hydroxide is added and a blue precipitate is produced. test 2 Dilute nitric acid is added followed by aqueous silver nitrate and a white precipitate is produced. What is X? Copper chloride
Which gas relights a glowing splint? Oxygen
Name one statement about aqueous sodium hydroxide When it is added to a solution of iron(II) ions, a green precipitate is formed which does not dissolve in excess.
Aqueous sodium hydroxide is added to solid X and the mixture is heated. A green precipitate is formed and an alkaline gas is given off. Which ions are present in X? NH4+ and Fe2+
Which pairs of aqueous ions both react with dilute sulfuric acid to give a visible result? Ba2+ and CO32
Barium hydroxide is an alkali. It reacts with hydrochloric acid. How does the pH of the hydrochloric acid change as an excess of aqueous barium hydroxide is added? The pH increases from 1 to about 14.
When sodium reacts with water, a solution and a gas are produced. The solution is tested with litmus paper and the gas is tested with a splint. What happens to the litmus paper and to the splint? Litmus paper - red to blue Splint - lighted splint ‘pops’
A solution contains barium ions and silver ions. What could the anion be? Nitrate only
Some barium iodide is dissolved in water. Aqueous lead(II) nitrate is added until no more precipitate forms. This precipitate, X, is filtered off. Dilute sulfuric acid is added , Y, forms. What are the colours of X and Y X - Yellow Y - White
Aqueous sodium hydroxide is added to a solid, X, and the mixture is heated. A green precipitate is formed and an alkaline gas is given off. Which ions are present in X? NH4 + and Fe2+
An aqueous solution Y contains both barium ions and silver ions. In separate experiments, dilute sulfuric acid and dilute hydrochloric acid are added to solution Y. Which of these acids causes a precipitate to form in solution Y? Dilute sulfuric acid and dilute hydrochloric acid
Aqueous sodium hydroxide is added to salt. A blue precipitate is formed which does not dissolve in excess. Aluminium foil is added and the mixture is warmed. A gas is produced that turns damp red litmus paper blue. What is the name of the salt? Copper(II) nitrate
An element E is burned in air. A white solid oxide is formed. The oxide is tested with damp red litmus paper. The paper turns blue. What is element E? Calcium
What is the method used to make copper(II) sulfate crystals? Name 6 points. 1 Place dilute sulfuric acid in a beaker. 2 Warm the acid. 3 Add copper(II) oxide until it is in excess. 4 Filter the mixture. 5 Evaporate the filtrate until crystals start to form. 6 Leave the filtrate to cool.
What is the correct sequence of steps for the preparation of a pure sample of copper(II) sulfate crystals from copper(II) oxide and sulfuric acid? Dissolving → filtration → evaporation → crystallisation
Salts can be made by adding different substances to dilute hydrochloric acid. For which substance could any excess not be removed by filtration? Sodium hydroxide
Name the Four stages in the preparation of a salt from an acid and a solid metal oxide? 1. Heat the acid 2. Add excess solid 3 Filter to remove unwanted solid 4. Evaporate half the solution and leave to cool.
