ST. HILDAS SECONDARY SCHOOL Secondary Three Express Science (Chemistry) Quiz
Chapter 10 & 11 Acids, Bases & Salts

Section A: Multiple Choice Questions (5 marks) 1 Which two substances react to form a salt and water only? A B C D Dilute sulfuric acid and aqueous sodium hydroxide Dilute nitric acid and zinc Dilute hydrochloric acid and aqueous sodium carbonate Dilute sulfuric acid and aqueous barium nitrate ( 2 The table below gives a classification of the different types of oxides. Which classification of oxides is correct? Acidic A B C D magnesium oxide sulfur dioxide sulfur dioxide carbon monoxide Basic carbon monoxide magnesium oxide aluminium oxide magnesium oxide Amphoteric aluminium oxide aluminium oxide magnesium oxide aluminium oxide Neutral sulfur dioxide carbon monoxide carbon monoxide sulfur dioxide ( B 3 Both magnesium oxide and magnesium carbonate react with dilute sulfuric acid. In what way are both the reactions the same? A B C D A gas is produced during the reaction. An acid is neutralized by a soluble base Water is obtained as one of the products. An insoluble salt is obtained as a product. ( C ) ) A )

Aqueous potassium sulfate can be prepared by reacting dilute sulfuric acid with aqueous potassium carbonate. Which conclusion can be drawn from this information? A B C D Potassium carbonate is insoluble in water. Potassium sulfate is soluble in water. Potassium sulfate is an alkali. Potassium sulfate neutralizes sulfuric acid. ( B )

The table below shows the solubility of some salts of metal Y in cold water. Salt carbonate chloride sulfate What could metal Y be? A B C D Barium Lead Magnesium Sodium ( A ) Solubility in cold water insoluble soluble insoluble

Section B: Structured Questions (15 marks) 1 Complete the following word equations. (b) Dilute nitric acid + lithium carbonate lithium nitrate + carbon dioxide + water (c) copper(II) oxide + dilute hydrochloric acid copper (II) chloride + water sodium chloride + silver nitrate sodium nitrate + silver chloride [3]

(d)

This question is about making salts. For each salt, suggest the name of the missing reagent and briefly describe how to obtain the solid product from the reaction mixture. (a) Salt to be prepared: magnesium nitrate reagent 1: dilute nitric acid. reagent 2: magnesium oxide / magnesium / magnesium carbonate [1] I could obtain solid magnesium nitrate by: Dissolve excess [1/2] magnesium carbonate in dilute nitric acid. Filter [1/2] the unreacted magnesium carbonate and collect the filtrate [1/2]. Heat [1/2] the filtrate to obtain a saturated [1/2] solution.

Cool the saturated solution to form crystals [1/2]. Collect the crystals and rinse them (optional) Dry in between sheets of filter paper (optional)

(b)

Salt to be prepared: barium sulfate reagent 1: aqueous potassium sulfate reagent 2: aqueous barium nitrate / aqueous barium chloride [1] I could obtain solid barium sulfate by: Mix the two aqueous salt solutions. [1/2] Filter the mixture and collect the residue [1/2]. [6]

When metal is added to dilute acid, salt is formed and hydrogen gas will be given off. However, there are some acid and metal reactions that do not give hydrogen gas. One such reaction is between lead and dilute sulfuric acid. Suggest why this is so. When lead reacts with dilute sulfuric acid, a layer of lead(II) sulfate is formed. [1]. This layer is insoluble in water [1/2] and will coat the metal, preventing it from further reacting with acid [1/2].

When metal is added to dilute acid, salt is formed and hydrogen gas will be given off.

Mg (s) Salt A + Gas B

Dilute hydrochloric acid

ZnCO3 (s) Gas C

Substance D (aq) Potassium chloride + water

(a)

Fill in the missing information in the table below. Chemical name Magnesium chloride [1/2] Hydrogen gas Chemical formula MgCl2 H2 [1/2]

Salt A Gas B

[1] (b) Describe a test to confirm the identity of Gas C. Test: Bubble the gas through limewater [1/2] Observation: White precipitate is formed in limewater [1/2] Note: Carbon dioxide is formed. (c) Potassium chloride forms a colourless, neutral solution when mixed with water. Write down the chemical name of Substance D. (i) Potassium hydroxide [1] (ii) What is the name of the method used to prepare potassium chloride? Titration [1]
