Higher volume of aqueous sodium hydroxide required to neutralize acid. 1 1 [2] Total: 15 Question Skill Indicative material Mark Total 2(a) MMO Effervescence. Gas evolved produces white precipitate in limewater. Gas is CO2 1 1 1 [3] 2(b) MMO No observable change. Gas evolved on warming, turns damp red litmus blue. Gas is NH3 1 1 1 [3] 2(c) MMO White precipitate formed and then dissolves / no ppt /no observable change effervescence on addition of nitric acid 1 1 [2] 2(d) MMO White precipitate formed Precipitate insoluble in HNO3 1 1 [2] 2(e) ACE NH4+/ammonium – When X is warmed with NaOH(aq) in (b), ammonia gas is produced CO32–/carbonate – When HCl (aq) added to X in (a), CO2 produced SO42–/sulfate – white precipitate formed with Ba(NO3)2 in (d), insoluble in HNO3 Na+/K+/sodium/potassium - the carbonate is soluble 1m each Alternative: identify NH4+, CO32–, SO42– 1m 1m each for each supporting evidence [4] Total: 14
