(a)
Calculate the mass of phosphorus, in grams, formed when 1 tonne of Ca3(PO4)3 is used.
(b)
In the 19th and 20th centuries, scientists established the atomic theory and showed that
three sub-atomic particles, electron, neutron and proton, exist. The masses and charges of
these three particles were subsequently determined.
When separate beams of electrons, neutrons or protons are passed through an electric
field in the apparatus below, they behave differently.

Which of these three particles will be deflected the most by the electric field?

(d)
Protons and neutrons have been used in nuclear reactions which result in the formation of
artificial elements. In such processes, protons or neutrons are accelerated to high speeds
and then fired like bullets at the nucleus of an atom of an element.
In some cases, when neutrons are fired at atoms of an element, the neutrons become part
of the nucleus of those atoms.
What effect does the presence of an extra neutron have on the chemical properties of the
new atoms formed? Explain your answer.

Read the following passage and answer the questions that follow.
Minerals
A mineral is a natural solid material with a specific chemical makeup and
structure. Gold, diamond, quartz, talc and calcite are all minerals.
Minerals have identical structures. Two samples of gold always have the same mix
of ingredients in the same proportions, so they always look similar both inside
and outside. For example, diamond and graphite are both minerals made of
carbon. Differences in their structures make diamond the hardest mineral and
graphite one of the softest.
In caves, there are beautiful flowers and pearls made of calcite or gypsum
along the walls. Delicate mineral drapes may even hang from them. All these
structures like stalactites and stalagmites consist of minerals that once made up
the layers of limestone that dissolved to from the cave.

State the name given to diamond and graphite which are both minerals made of carbon.

The spring water running through the rocks changes anhydrite (CaSO4) into gypsum
(CaSO4.2H2O).
This reaction is exothermic.
Use this information to explain why the temperature of the mine never falls below 17oC
even in cold winters.

H2O2 is reduced rapidly by Sn2+, the products being Sn4+ and water. H2O2 decomposes
slowly at room temperature to yield oxygen and water.
(a)
Write down the chemical equation to show the decomposition of H2O2 at room temperature.
.................................................................................................................................................
(b)
Calculate the volume of oxygen produced at 20oC and 1.00 atm when 200 g of 10.0 % by
mass H2O2 in water is treated with 100 cm3 of 2.00 mol dm-3 Sn2+ and then the mixture is
allowed to stand until no further reaction occurs.
(c)
A 6.000 g sample contained Fe3O4, Fe2O3 and inert materials. It was treated with an excess
of aqueous KI in acid, which reduced all the iron to Fe2+. The resulting solution was diluted
to 50.00 cm3 and a 10 cm3 of it was taken. The liberated iodine in the small sample was
titrated with 5.500 cm3 of 1.00 mol dm-3 sodium thiosulphate solution. The iodine from
another 25.00 cm3 sample was extracted, after which the Fe2+ was titrated with 3.20 cm3 of
1.00 mol dm-3 MnO4- in H2SO4 solution.
Calculate the percentages of Fe3O4 and Fe2O3 in the original mixture.
