Which of the following statements helps to explain why magnesium and oxygen form
MgO instead of Mg 2 0?
A
Less energy is required to remove one electron from the magnesium atom than
to remove two electrons.
When Mg 2 0 is formed from its elements, more energy is released than when
MgO is formed.
More energy is released in forming the oxide ions from oxygen molecules in the
form~tion of MgO 'than in the formation of Mg 2 0.

Aqueous ions of transition metals are aqua complexes with six water ligands coordinated to a central metal ion, eg in [Cr(H 20);f+.
The resence of these six li ands s lit the d-orbitals of C
into two sets of orbitals of
different energies. C + with the electronic configuration of [A r] 3cf has partially tilled dsubshells. The electrons in the lower set can absorb energy of certain wavelengths of the
visible light and are excited to the upper set. Such d.<.f transitions are responsible for
colours in transition metal complexes and the colour of the complex observed is the
complement of the colour absorbed.
However aqueous ions of non-transition metals such as [AI(H 20)sf+ show no colours
since the metal ions do not have partially tilled d-subshells so that no d-d transitions
occur . The excitation of electrons from a lower energy orbital to one of higher energy
(e.g. from 3p to 4s) requires wavelengths of light which fall out of the visible region of the
electromagnetic spectrum. [AI(H 20);jl+ allows all the incident visible light to be
transmitted and is colourless. Hence no light from the visible spectrum is absorbed.

The value of liH,ap of an element depends very much on the strength of the bonds being
broken or the strength of the intermolecular forces being overcome in converting from
liquid to vapour.
Na, Mg and AI have giant metallic structures. Converting these metals from liquid to
vapour involves supplying heat energy to break metallic bonds. Since metallic bond
strength increases from Nato AI due to increasing number of valence electrons for
delocalisation (1 for Na, 2 for Mg and 3 for AI}, the value of liH,ap increases from Nato
Na
Mg
AI
Si
Cl
Na reacts vigorously with water to form a strongly alkaline solution/ solution of pH > 7
AI.
Si has a giant covalent structure. It has the highest liH,.p among the given Period 3
elements due to a lot of heat energy needed to break the relatively strong Si...Si covalent
bonds in liquid Si.
For the elements P to Cl, they exist as P4, Sa and Cl2 molecules respectively. They have
simple molecular structures with weak instantaneous dipole -induced dipole attractive
forces (or Van der Waals' forces) between molecules to be overcome when converting
from liquid to vapour. Hence they have low liHvap values.
The strength of instantaneous dipole-induced dipole interactions depends on the
polarisability of the electron cloud and hence on the number of electrons per molecule.
Since the latter increases in the order Cl2 < P4 <Sa, the strength of the instantaneous
dipole-induced dipole interactions and hence the value of liH,ap increases in the order
Cb <P4 <Sa.

The mechanism is nucleophilic addition. The required reagents are HCN and a small

Since HCN Is a weak acid, concentration of CN" from the dissociation of HCN is very
low. As such, NaOH is added:
HCN _,.. W + CN"
The addition of OW removes H, hence driving the equilibrium to the right and increases
the concentration of CN". This increases the rate of reaction.

Pyridine is stabilised due to resonance (like benzene). It is more stable

In CH 3 coo ion, the negative charge on oxygen is delocalised into the -C=O group
and it results in two equivalent resonance structures.
The ethanoate ion is~ resonance-stabilised than the phenoxide ion.

'
When the -X group is closer to the -NH 2 group, pKb Increases, indicating that Q is
less basic. Since basicity of the amine depends on the availability of the lone pair on
N atom to form a dative covalent bond with a proton, Q has less availability of the lone
pair than P. Thus it can be deduced that -X has a base weakening effect on Q as it
withdraws electrons from the N atom. Thus X is electron withdrawing.
{b)
(I)
Lone pair of electrons on N atom interacts with the n-electrons of the adjacent
C=O bond (and the benzene ring), thus not available for donation to a proton.

Carbon dioxide and methane are two greenhouse gases. They trap infrared radiation
emitted from the Earth's surface and as a result warm up the planet.

and 10 dm 3 of methane at a pressure of 2 atm were transported separately to a
chemical plant for use in some industrial syntheses. Upon arrival, it was found
that the valve connecting the two gas cylinders was opened and the two gases
had been mixed.
Assuming that there was no increase in temperature and no chemical reaction .

withdrawal of electrons away from the H atom in the hydroxyl group, this
causes weakening of the 0-H bond and promotes the loss of proton. The
negative charge in the carboxylate anion is delocalised over two oxygen
atoms thereby stabilising the conjugate base relative to the acid. Hence
benzoic acid is the most acidic.
The electron donating alkyl group intensify the negative charge on the
oxygen atom hence destabilising the anion relative to the acid. Thus 2phenylethanol Is the least acidic.

At constant pressure, energy absorbed during heating is partly used to expand the gas I
to do work (gas has to do work against the surrounding)
Hence, more energy is required to raise the temperature of the gas by 1K.
At constant volume, no work is done, all energy absorbed is used to raise the
temperature by 1 K.

In many swimming pools, chemicals other than chlorine are used to form the
chloric(l) acid. This is partly because the use of chlorine gas causes much more
corrosion of metal parts in the pool than does chloric(l) acid.

chlorine dioxide, CI02 .

When small amounts of H is added, it is removed by the large
reservoir of HC03. and hence the concentration of H+ remains
approximately constant and so pH is approximately constant.
H+ + HCOi ~ H2C03
When small amounts of OH" added Is removed by the large
reservoir of H2C0 3 pH is approximately constant.

Al 3+ has high charge density/ polarizing power. When Al 3+ interacts with the
water molecules, electron density is drawn away from the oxygen and the 0-H
bond becomes more polarized, eventually giving H+ in solution (acidic).

The aqueous HCI formed from chlorine in pool water, is a strong acid, which
dissociates completely to give a high [H+] unlike chloric (I) acid, which is a weak
acid, only dissociates partially to give a low [H+].
The high [W] will cause much more corrosion of the metal parts.

Thermal stability of Group II carbonates increases down the group.
(Ease of thermal decomposition decreases down the group)
Down the group, the size of the cation increases and thus the charge density of
the cations decreases.
The polarizing power of the cation decreases. When the anions are less
polarized, the electron clouds of the anion is not as distorted, hence they are not
so easily decomposed to the oxide ion and carbon dioxide.
(b) (i )
For transition metals, in the presence of ligands the five 3d orbitals are no longer
degenerate and they split into two energy levels.
When d-d transition of electrons takes place, radiation in the visible region of the
electromagnetic spectrum corresponding to ilE is absorbed. The light energy not
absorbed will be seen as the colour of the complex.

NaCI exists as giant ionic lattice with strong ionic bonds between the ions. Large
amount of energy of energy is required to overcome the strong ionic bonds and
hence, a high melting point.
SiCI4 and PC15 exist as simple molecular structures. Melting involves overcoming
the weak Van der Waals forces of attraction between them. Little energy is
required to overcome the intermolecular forces of attraction and thus, they have
lower melting points as compared to NaCI.
PCI5 has a larger molecular size compared to SiCI4 and thus the intermolecular
forces in PCI5 are more extensive compared to that of SiCI 4 and thus PCI 5 has a
higher melting point..

Co + acts as a homogeneous catalyst, increasing the rate of reaction by providing
a pathway of lower activation energy.
Reaction between oppositely charged ions is highly favoured due to electrostatic
attraction unlike the re'action between r and S2ol- which is slow due to repulsion
between the negatively charged species.

In order to have a valid comparison between the fatty acid and glucose, we need to
compare the same number of C atoms, ie compare 3 glucose with one fatty acid. This
means that AH (3 glucose) = -2880 x 3 = -8640 kJ mol-1
Glucose has a higher oxygen : carbon ratio compared to the fatty acid. Glucose is more
oxidized than the fatty acid and therefore releases less energy per carbon atom than the

Fatty acids {palmitoleicacid) are insoluble in water (hydrophobic) as it contains longchain hydrocarbon groups which are unable to form strong interactions with water,
while glucose is soluble in water (hydrophilic) as it contains many polar -OH groups
that can hydrogen bond with water.
Glucose shows optical activity as it rotates plane polarized light. It contains chiral
centres which are not symmetricaL Fatty acids (~almitoleic acid) are optically inactive as
all of its carbons are symmetrical.
Glucose forms a crystalline solid with a higher melting point than the triglyceride as the

The fatty acid, on the other hand, has weaker van der Waals forces of attractions which
are easily overcome. Hydrogen bonding takes place only to a small extent with the
carboxyl group.

(b) Each amino acid residue is coded by a small number of consecutive nucleotides.
More than one nucleotide is required as there are only four bases in DNA but 20
amino acids present in proteins. If groups of three bases in DNA code for one amino
acid, 43 64 different pairs can be generated. Hence, at least three bases must code
for one amino acid.
Each group of three bases is called a codon and specific codons code for
specific amino acids. There are also specific codes for the initiation and termination
of tha coding process. This system of three bases coding for particular amino acids is
called the triplet codon.
The sequence of amino acids in the synthesized protein depends on the sequence
of bases in the mRNA molecule that codes for the protein. In turn, it is the sequence of
bases in the corresponding gene of the DNA molecule that determines the sequence
of bases in the mRNA. The sequence of bases in mRNA is complementary to that in
DNA. Knowing the sequence of DNA and which triplet codes for which amino acid will
enable the primary structure (ie amino acid sequence) of the polypeptide to be known.

It is also possible to calculate the valu~ of the enthalpy change for the reaction
above by using appropriate bond energy values from the Data Booklet. The value
calculated using this method differs from that catculated by using the Hess Law
approach in part (ai).

suggest one reason for the difference in-enthalpy values.

The ppt remains insoluble in aq NH3
Reason:

AgAt(s) ~ Ag+ (aq) + Ar (aq)
The Ksp value of AgAt is very low and there is insufficient Ag+ to react with NH 3 to
form complex ion
Thus the equilibrium position (1) does not shift right, hence AgAt remains

mass of a volatile liquid. The diagram shows the apparatus that could be used in this

(a) Suggest why it is essential to leave the syringe in the boiling water bath for several
minutes before reading the volume of the vapour.
[1]
{b) State three of the basic assumptions made in the kinetic theory of gases regarding
[3]
the behaviour of g~seous molecules.
Collisions between the molecules or between a molecule and the wall of the
container are perfectly elastic. During collision, energy is exchanged but the
total kinetic energy is unchanged.
The average kinetic energy of the molecules is independent of the nature of
the gas and is directly proportional to the absolute temperature.
The molecules in a gas are widely spaced out. The gas molecules have
negligible volume compared with the volume of the whole gas i.e. volume of
the container.
_(c) Using apparatus similar to that shown in the diagram, 0.167 g of ethanol, C2H5 0H
-was injected into a gas syringe and the-syringe was then placed in-a boiling water
bath for several minutes at 1 atm. The temperature of the water bath was 100C.

When the temperature is high, molecules have larger kinetic energy and
move furth~r apart i.e. volume of molecules negligible, intermolecular
forces less significant.
When pressure is low, volume of gas molecules is small and almost
negligible compared to volume occupied by gas. Molecules are further
apart i.e. intermolecular forces less significant.

The peak at 8 at 2 ppm will disappear because proton in the -OH group is a
labile proton and it can be exchanged with 2H.;
[
[
Since 2H does not absorb energy in this region of the spectrum, the peak is not
observed.;

There are no protons in CCI 4 Therefore it does no' give a signal in n.m.r
spectrum and thus no interference with signals of the sample.
CCI 4 is inert and volatile, solvent can be easily evaporated away to recover

for maintaining oxidation and quote its electrode potential under standard
conditions.

(ii) In practice, the redox potential within soils is considerably less than the
standard value. With reference to the half-equation you have quoted in (a)(i),
give two reasons why this is so.

Decrease in acidity
Lower oxygen concentrations;
A decrease in acidity and a lowering of oxygen concentration will shift the
equilibrium of the equation in (i) to the left hand side and hence decrease
the redox potential.;
