Text from the first pages2024 ANDSS 6092 Prelim Paper 3 - Mark Scheme 1 (a) Read all the instructions carefully before starting the experiments in Question 1. You are provided with salt solution W in a boiling tube. You will carry out tests on W to deduce its identity. You should test and identify any gases evolved. Record all your observations in the table. The volumes given below are approximate and should be estimated rather than measured, unless instructed otherwise. test observations Test 1 Put about 1 cm depth of solution W in a clean test-tube. Add 1 cm depth of aqueous sodium hydroxide. Gently warm the mixture. - no ppt / no visible change / no apparent change - pungent gas turns damp red litmus blue [1] - ammonia / NH3 is produced [1] Test 2 Put about 1 cm depth of solution W in a clean test-tube. Add an equal depth of dilute nitric acid and then add a few drops of aqueous barium nitrate. - white ppt [1] Test 3 Put about 1 cm depth of solution W in a clean test-tube. Add an equal depth of dilute nitric acid and then add a few drops of aqueous silver nitrate. - no ppt / no white ppt / no visible change / no apparent change / solution remains colourless [1] [4] (b) Deduce the identity of salt W. ammonium [1] sulfate [1] OR (NH4)2SO4 [2] [2]

[1] decimal places All burette readings for all accurate titres in titration table are recorded to nearest 0.05 cm3. [1] accuracy Supervisor’s result 1. For the average titre (of consistent readings) within 0.20 cm3 of supervisor’s average value scores 2 marks. 2. For the average titre (of consistent readings) within 0.30 cm3 of supervisor’s average value scores 1 mark. [2] concordance At least two titre values are within 0.20 cm3. [1] (ii) 1m awarded only when working for average volume is shown, correct to 2 decimal places (reject 3 sf) 1 (b) No. of moles of KOH = 0.100 x 25.0 1000 = 0.00250 mol / 2.5 x 10-3 mol 1 (c) ratio of KOH : H2C4H4O5 = 2 : 1 no. of moles of malic acid = 0.00250 ÷ 2 = 0.00125 mol 1 (d) concentration of P = 0.00125 ÷ [(ave. vol. of P) ÷ 1000)] Note: allow ecf from (c) 1
2 (e) average concentration of malic acid in apple juice = 4.50 ÷ [2(1) + 4(12) + 4(1) + 5(16)] = 4.50 ÷ 134 either step shown as working [1] = 0.03358208955 (at least 5 sf) 0.0336 mol/dm3 [1] 2 (f) Method 1: average volume of apple juice = [(d) x 200 1000)] ÷ (e) (at least 5 sf in working) [1] (final answer to 3sf) dm3 [1] 2 Method 2: average volume of apple juice = [(d) x 200 1000) x 134] ÷ 4.50 (at least 5 sf in working) [1] (final answer to 3sf) dm3 [1] (g) There are other acids (besides malic acid) in apple juice / acidic impurities / other acidic substances rejected: other compounds in apple juice 1 [* Note: overall minus 1 mark for sig. fig. of final answers for (c) – (f) ] 3 (a) result for masses clear unambiguous headings in table with correct units OR clear statements with correct units mass of container with solid T / g mass of container with residual solid T / g mass of solid T used (or added) / g 1 result for temperature readings ✓ all thermometer readings to _.0 or _.5 1 ✓ correct trends in thermometer readings: 1 O constant / almost constant temperature from 0 to 2 min O sharp increase in temperature from 3 to about 6 min O gradual decrease in temperature OR temperature remains constant till end of experiment (9 min)
(b)(i) example of sample graph (b)(i) – axes correctly labelled AND appropriate scales chosen; graph covers at least half the grid [1] – all points are correctly plotted [1] – 2 lines of best fit drawn [1] (one line before adding T and one line for the cooling of the mixture / constant temperature at second portion) – solid vertical line at t = 2.5 min [1] (no mark if it is dotted vertical line) (b)(ii) point of intersection

4 key marking points: • method stated or implied clearly: chromatography / paper chromatography • draw a pencil baseline / pencil start line (reject: pencil solvent front) • use the pointed end of a toothpick to apply a small spot of orange colouring from drink onto the pencil start line of the paper/ chromatogram / paper chromatogram • as well as samples of both E110 and E129 • depth of solvent (state water or ethanol) in beaker is below base line/ start line / spots on chromatogram • allow the solvent to travel up the paper for about 10 minutes (suitable time period) so as to separate the components of the samples • use a ruler to measure the distance / heights of spots from pencil start line of E-colours against orange drink • conclusion based on height of spots from start line / comparison to known Rf values [orange drink will not have spots on the same horizontal height as E110 and E129 / different Rf values] [OWTTE] max 4 descriptors marks awarded o all 8 points mentioned in proper sequence 4 o 6 points mentioned in proper sequence 3 o 4 points mentioned in proper sequence 2 o 2 points mentioned 1 Note: if clearly-labelled diagram is drawn instead, relevant marks that correspond to the descriptors above can also be awarded
