2 Queenstown Secondary School [Turn over 1 The reaction of manganate(VII) ions with ethanedioate ions in acid solution may be represented by the following equation. 2MnO4- (aq) + 16H+ (aq) + 5C2O42- (aq) → 2Mn2+ (aq) + 8H2O (l) + 10CO2 (g) A student is exploring various ways to measure the rate of the reaction by measuring changes in different variables of the reaction. Which of the following methods of monitoring the rate of reaction are suitable? 1 volume of gas produced 2 pH of the reaction mixture 3 mass of the reaction mixture 4 amount of precipitate obtained 5 intensity of the purple colour of the reaction mixture A 1, 2 and 3 B 1, 3 and 4 C 1, 2, 3 and 5 D 2, 3, 4 and 5 2 The heating curve of an impure sample of substance X is shown below. What are the melting point and boiling point of pure substance X? melting point / oC boiling point / oC A 45 129 B 47 128 C 48 127 D 49 130

3 Queenstown Secondary School [Turn over 3 A student carried out an experiment using the set-up shown below to separate a mixture containing four alcohols. The table gives the boiling points of the four alcohols used. alcohol butanol ethanol pentanol propanol boiling point / oC 117 79 138 97 Despite repeated attempts, the student only managed to obtain two alcohols from the mixture. Which alcohols did he fail to obtain? A butanol and ethanol C ethanol and propanol B butanol and pentanol D pentanol and propanol
