- 1 - 2018 Y6 H2 Chemistry Preliminary Exams Paper 4 (Suggested Solutions) 1(a) Volume of FA 2 needed = 5 30 x 250 = 41.67 cm3 1(b) Dilution of FA 2: Final burette reading / cm3 41.00 Initial burette reading / cm3 0.00 Volume of FA 2 used / cm3 41.00 Titration Results: Titration number 1 2 Final burette reading / cm3 24.80 24.80 Initial burette reading / cm3 0.00 0.00 Volume of FA 1 used / cm3 24.80 24.80 Values used 1(c) Average volume of FA 1 used = 24.80 + 24.80 2 = 24.80 cm3 25.0 cm3 of FA 4 produced an amount of iodine which required 24.80 cm3 of FA 1. 1(d) Amount of thiosulfate ions = 0.0500 × 24.80 1000 = 1.24 × 10−3 mol Mole ratio of Cu2+ : I2 : S2O32− = 2 : 1 : 2 Amount of Cu2+ in 25.0 cm3 of FA 4 = amount of S2O32− = 1.24 × 10−3 mol [Cu2+] in FA 4 = 1.24×10-3 25.0×10-3 = 0.0496 mol dm⁻3 1(e) [Cu2+] in FA 2 = 0.0496 x 250 41 = 0.302 mol dm⁻3 1(f) Amount of NaI in 10 cm3 of 50 g dm−3 sodium iodide = 50 23.0 + 126.9 x 0.010 = 0.00334 mol Amount of NaI required to react with Cu2+ in 25.0 cm3 of FA 4 = 2 x 25.0 x 10−3 x 0.0496 = 0.00248 mol When using 50 g dm −3 sodium iodide, amount of iodide is still in excess. Hence there is no effect on the titre volume as the same amount of I2 will be produced.

Hence ΔTmax is unaffected. 2(e)(i) Amount of S2O32− = 0.030 x 0.100 = 3.00 x 10−3 mol Amount of ClO− = 4 x amount of S2O32− = 0.0120 mol Mass of NaClO = 0.0120 x (23.0 + 35.5 + 16.0) = 0.894 g 1.0 2.0 3.0 4.0 5.0 6.0 7.0 0.0 5.0 10.0 15.0 20.0 25.0 30.0 35.0 40.0 45.0 ΔT/ oC VFA 5/ cm3 Vrxn ΔTmax
- 3 - 2(e)(ii) Assuming a percentage purity of 80 % NaClO, Mass of FA 7 required = 0.894 0.80 = 1.12 g 2(e)(iii) Using an analytical balance, weigh accurately about 0.400 g of FA 7. Record the mass of the weighing bottle and the mass of FA 7, m1. Using a burette, add 30.00 cm 3 of FA 6 in a clean and dry Styro
