(a)
Sodium carbonate is produced in large quantities by the Solvay Process. In this process,
ammonia and carbon dioxide are passed through a solution of sodium chloride, forming
sodium hydrogencarbonate and ammonium chloride.
NaCl + NH3 + CO2 + H2O NaHCO3 + NH4Cl
In the next stage, sodium hydrogencarbonate is thermally decomposed to form sodium
carbonate.
2NaHCO3 Na2CO3 + H2O + CO2
Calculate the maximum mass of sodium carbonate which, theoretically, could be obtained
from 546 kg of sodium chloride.

The chloride of an element Z reacts with water according to the following equation.
ZCl4(l) + 2H2O(l) ZO2(s) + 4HCl(aq)
A 1.304 g sample of ZCl4 was added to water. The solid ZO2 was removed by filtration and the
resulting solution was made up to 250 cm3 in a volumetric flask. A 25.0 cm3 portion of this
solution was titrated against a 0.112 mol dm3 solution of sodium hydroxide, of which 21.7 cm3
were required to reach the end point.
Use this information to calculate the number of moles of HCl produced and hence the number of
moles of ZCl4 present in the sample. Calculate the relative molecular mass, Mr, of ZCl4.
From your answer deduce the relative atomic mass, Ar, of element Z and hence its identity.

Calculate the volume of nitrogen monoxide, measured at 330 K and 98.0 kPa, which is
formed when 1.25 g of copper metal reacts completely with an excess of dilute nitric acid.
