Hence, rateforward increases more than ratebackward. Hence, Kp increases. [5] (c) (i) The energy released from forming ion-dipole interaction between aluminium oxide and water is insufficient to overcome ionic bonds in aluminium oxide. (ii) Aluminium oxide is amphoteric. Aqueous solution of PCl5 is acidic. PCl5 + 4 H2O H3PO4 + 5 HCl Al2O3 + 6HCl 2AlCl3 + 3H2O [4]

(a) (i) 5 Ca(s) + 3 P(s) + 13/2 O2 (g) + ½ H2 (g) Ca5(PO4)3OH (s) (ii) 5(178.2) + 5(590+1150) – 230 – 3(1913) + x = - 12969 x = -16 591 kJ mol-1 (iii) 2Ca5(PO4)3OH 3Ca3(PO4)2 + CaO + H2O Moles of hydroxyapatite = 9 / 502.5 = 0.01791 mol Moles of calcium oxide = 8.96 x 10-3 mol Mass of calcium oxide = 8.96 x 10-3 x (40.1+16) = 0.502 g (iv) Quote: Ca2+: 0.099 nm and Al3+: 0.050 Al3+ ion has a higher charge density, and higher polarising power than Ca 2+. Thus, there is more distortion of the electron cloud of the anion, hence requiring less energy to break. [8] (b) (i) Given that 1 kg of fruits can contain 7mg of acephate, 1g of fruit = 7 x 10-6 g Hence, 50 g of fruit = 3.5 x 10-4 g of acephate (ii) Nucleophilic substitution / Condensation

(ii) Cysteine Lysine Serine COOH2N CH2SH H (iv) AND [8] (b) (i) Cysteine can form disulfide linkages which are strong covalent bonds which are hard to break. (ii) 2 -CH2SH -CH2S-SCH2- + 2H+ + 2e- H2O2 + 2H+ + 2e- 2H2O [3] (c) (i) H2O2 O2 + 2H+ + 2e- 2e- + 2H+ + ClO- Cl- + H2O Overall eqn: H2O2 + ClO- O2 + H2O + Cl- (ii) White ppt is AgCl. AgCl + 2NH3 [Ag(NH3)2]+ + Cl- AgCl Ag+ + Cl- (Eqm 1) The decrease in [Ag+] due to formation of complex shifts eqm 1 to the right. Also, decrease in [Ag+] also decreases I.P. of AgCl which becomes lower than Ksp of AgCl, hence ppt dissolves.

(iv) For CuCl: [Cu+][Cl‒] = 1.2 x 10‒6 [Cl‒] = (1.2 x 10‒6) / 0.04 = 3.00 x 10‒5 mol dm‒3 For AgCl @ the point where IP CuCl = Ksp CuCl Hence, [Ag+][Cl‒] = 1.8 x 10‒10 [Ag+] = 6.00 x 10‒6 mol dm‒3 No of moles of AgCl formed = 250 / 1000 x 0.05 – 250 / 1000 x 6.00 x 10‒6 = 0.012499 mol Total moles of Cl- needed = Cl- in AgCl + Cl- in saturated solution = 0.012499 + 250 / 1000 x 3.00 x 10-5 = 0.012507 mol Maximum mass of NaCl that can be added = 0.012507 x (35.5 + 23) = 0.732g [9] [Total: 20] 4 (a) (i) Product are H+ and O2 Overall equation (ii) Q = (0.25) x (24 x 60 x 60) = 21, 600 C From the above half equation, 1 mole of 1-phenyl-2-aminopropane requires 8F (772 000C).

(iii) When 1,4-diaminobutane is added, the colour of the complex changes from blue to violet as there is a ligand exchange of water by 1,4-diaminobutane. The energy absorbed for the excitation of d electrons changes as different ligands are bonded to Cu2+. (iv) Cu H 2O 2 2+ H2N NH2 2 Cu 3 2+ H2N NH2 OR [5] (d) (i)

Intermolecular forces between the pyruvic acid molecules is hydrogen bonding while in alanine, it’s held by strong electrostatic forces of attraction between oppositely charged ions. More energy is needed to break the stronger ionic bonds in alanine than the hydrogen bond in the acid. (iii) [5] 5 (a) (i) [H+] = (10-3.25 x 0.025)1/2 = 3.7494 x 10-3 mol dm-3 pH = 2.43 (ii) (ii) [8]
