© VJC 2021 9813/01/PRELIM/21 2 Section A Answer all questions in this section. The information provid ed in the insert is taken from published scientific article s. Other published articles may not agree with all of this information. You should read all the above information before you start to answer any questions and use the information it contains to answer the questions. 1 (a) (i) State two main assumptions of an ideal gas. [2] (ii) A 2 dm 3 container half filled with water was left exposed to an atmosphere of hydrogen for a long time at 0 .8 atm and 25 ºC. The resultant solution contained 6.96 × 10–4 mol dm–3 of dissolved H2 according to the following equilibrium. H2(g) ⇌ H2(aq) The atmosphere in contact with this water is replaced with 1.0 atm argon and sealed. The mixture is stirred for the gas–aqueous equilibrium to be established at 25 ºC. The hydrogen dissolved in water before the replacement is distributed between the gas phase and water after the replacement. Use equation 1.1 and the ideal gas equation to calculate the partial pressure of H2 (in atm) in the sealed container. [3] (iii) Explain how your answer in (a)(ii) will change if the temperature was increased to 50 ºC and all other conditions remained constant.
