Measure the mass [reject weight, penalize once] of an empty test-tube/ boiling tube/ evaporating dish/ crucible [reject beaker/ conical flask etc.] (p) using an electronic mass balance [reject weighing scale] 2. Add the solid sample to the test-tube, measure the initial mass of the test-tube and its contents (q) [accept measure the mass of hydrated K2CO3, if no apparatus mentioned point 1 not awarded] [reject measuring mass of solution] 3. Calculate the mass of hydrated K2CO3 used by taking q – p 4. Heat the sample (at regular / 1-minute intervals) [point only awarded if appropriate apparatus for heating was mentioned earlier; accept evaporate (to dryness)] 5. until the mass of the remaining solid / residue is constant / to dryness / all the water has evaporated [reject to saturation] 6. Measure the mass of the remaining residue and test-tube (r) [reject measure the mass of the test-tube after heating] [accept 5

Calculate the mass of the residue r – p [reject p – r] 8. Calculate the number of moles of K2CO3 by taking (r – p)/138. 9. Calculate the number of moles of H2O by taking (q – r)/18. 10. The value is x is the number of moles of H2O ÷ number of moles of K2CO3. OR 1. Using a burette/measuring cylinder/pipette, measure out 25.0 cm3 of solution P 2. into a conical flask. Set up using rubber stopper with delivery tube, connected to gas syringe [award point if set-up is drawn and labelled] 3. Add solution Q / HCl 4. in excess 5. Measure the volume of gas [reject amount/mass] 6. Calculate the number of moles of CO2 by taking v/24000 [reject finding no. of moles by mass/Mr if never mention to measure the mass of gas co
