2 River Valley High School 9729/02/PRELIMS/21 2021 Preliminary Examination 1 In recent years, there has been worldwide interest in the possible extraction of “shale gas” (a form of natural gas) as an important energy source. (a) One of the problems associated with using shale gas is its variable composition. Table 1 .1 shows the percentage composition of shale gas from four different sources J, K, L and M. Table 1.1 source CH4 C2Hx C3Hy CO2 N2 J 80.3 8.1 2.3 1.4 7.9 K 82.1 14.0 3.5 0.1 0.3 L 88.0 0.8 0.7 10.4 0.1 M 77.5 4.0 0.9 3.3 14.3 In the formulae above, x and y are variables. (i) Draw the structures of three possible hydrocarbons w ith 3 carbon atoms. [3] (ii) State the source of shale gas, J, K, L or M, that will likely provide the most energy when completely burned. Explain your answer. ……………………………………………………………………………… ……………………………………………………………………………… [1] (iii) Suggest a method by which carbon dioxide can be removed from shale gas. ……………………………………………………………………………… ……………………………………………………………………………… [1]

Water, sand and chemicals are injected into the rock at high pressure which allows the gas to flow out to the head of the well. Magnesium hydroxide is one of the chemicals that can be used to control pH. The equation for the formation of the gaseous hydroxide ion is shown. 1 2H2(g) + 1 2O2(g) + e–  OH–(g) H = Hf (OH–(g)) Use the data from Table 1.2 and the Data Booklet , construct a Born-Haber cycle to calculate Hf (OH–(g)). Table 1.2 H / kJ mol–1 standard enthalpy change of atomisation of Mg(s) +148 standard enthalpy change of formation of Mg(OH)2(s) –925 lattice energy of Mg(OH)2(s) –2993 [3]

It reacts exothermically with oxygen to give only gaseous products. hydrazine (i) Hydrazine reacts with oxygen according to the following equation. N2H4(l) + O2(g)  N2(g) + 2H2O(g) Given that the standard enthalpy change of vapourisation of hydrazine is +36.9 kJ mol –1, calculate the enthal py change of the above reaction with relevant data from the Data Booklet.

(i) Define isotopes. ……………………………………………………………………………… ……………………………………………………………………………… [1] (ii) 31P bei ng the most stable isotope can react with chlorine to form phosphorus chloride. Phosphorus in phosphorus chloride can exhibit variable oxidation state s. Based on your knowledge in periodicity, state the two common oxidation states of phosphorus in phosphorus chloride. ……………………………………………………………………………… [1]

Calculate the angle of deflection for a beam of 33P3 ions in the same electric field and show in the diagram below how a beam of 33P3 ions will deflect in the electric field. [2] (iv) 32P is unstable and d ecays rapidly to another element . During the decay, a neutron is converted to a proton with the release of an electron, forming a charged ion.

Values of the standard reduction potentials for certain silver species are given in Table 3.1. All ionic states refer to aqueous ions but other state symbols have been omitted. Table 3.1 Electrode reaction E/V Ag2+ + e−  Ag+ +2.00 Ag2S + 2e−  2Ag + S2− −0.69 These data are relevant to (a), (b) and (c). (a) Copper and silver are transition elements found in Group 11 and they can be found in their metallic form in nature. Even though copper and silver are analogous to each other, i.e. both have certain similarities in their physical and chemical properties, there are some differences as well. (i) It is found that Cu + ions form a pink solid in a blue solution. Explain why this can occur. …………………………..…………………………………………….......... …………………………..…………………………………………….......... …………………………..……………………………………………..........
