(This question continues on the following page) 1. Chile saltpetre is a mineral found in Chile and Peru, which mainly consists of sodium nitrate, NaNO3. The mineral is purified to concentrate the NaNO3 which is used as a fertilizer and in some fireworks. To determine the purity of a sample of NaNO3, a (1.64 ± 0.02) g impure sample was heated in NaOH (aq) with Devarda’s alloy which contains aluminium. This reduces the NaNO3 to ammonia which is boiled off and then dissolved in acid as shown in the following equation. 3NaNO3 (aq) + 8Al (s) + 5NaOH (aq) + 18H2O (l) → 3NH3 (g) + 8NaAl(OH)4 (aq) The NH3 gas produced is dissolved in (25.00 ± 0.06) cm3 of 1.00 mol dm–3 H2SO4. 2NH3 + H2SO4 → (NH4)2SO4 The resulting solution was titrated with 2.00 mol dm–3 NaOH to determine the amount of unreacted H2SO4. (16.20 ± 0.10) cm3 of NaOH were required for complete neutralization. H2SO4 + 2NaOH → Na2SO4 + 2H2O (a) (i) Calculate the amount of H2SO4 present in 25.0 cm3 of 1.00 mol dm–3 H2SO4. [1] (ii) Calculate the amount of NaOH present in 16.2 cm3 of 2.00 mol dm-3 NaOH. [1]

(This question continues on the following page) (b) (i) Use your answers in (a)(i) and (a)(ii) to determine the amount of NaNO3 that is present in the sample. [2] (If you do not have answers for (a)(i) and (a)(ii), use n(H2SO4) = 0.0500 mol and n(NaOH) = 0.0250 mol, but these are not the correct answers). (ii) Calculate the percentage uncertainty for the amount NaNO3 determined in (b)(i). [2] (If you do not have an answer for (b)(i), use n(NaNO3) = 0.0100 mol but this is not the correct answer).

(iii) Use your answer in (b)(i) to determine the percentage composition of NaNO3 present in the impure sample. [2] (If you do not have an answer for (b)(i), use n(NaNO3) = 0.0100 mol but this is not the correct answer). (iv) Calculate the absolute uncertainty of the percentage composition of NaNO3. [2]

5 ClF5 BrF3 Lewis structure Bond angle of F-X-F Molecular Geometry (This question continues on the following page) 2. (a) Fluorine reacts with other elements in Group 17 to form interhalogen compounds. The formulae of two such compounds are as shown in the table. Draw the Lewis structures of ClF5 and BrF3. State the bond angle and molecular geometry for each molecule. [4]
