AJC JC2 PRELIM 2015 8872/02/H1 4 2 (a) Kerosene is a combustible hydrocarbon liquid widely used as a fuel in industry and households. It is commonly used to power jet engines of aircraft and also used as a cooking and lighting fuel in homes. The formula of kerosene may be taken as C14H30. (i) Using the molecular formula of kerosene, write a balanced equation for its complete combustion in air, including state symbols. …………………………………………………………………………………………………… (ii) Use the relevant bond energies from the Data Booklet to calculate a value for the enthalpy change of combustion of kerosene. (iii) The enthalpy change of combustion of diesel fuel is about –45 kJ g –1. Based on your calculations, suggest which of the fuel, kerosene or diesel fuel, is a more efficient fuel. Give a reason for your answer. …………………………………………………………………………………………………… …………………………………………………………………………………………………… [6]

They are found in deposits beneath the ground and have been formed from plants and anima ls that lived up to 300 million years ago. Most of the sulfur present in fossil fuels is removed at oil refineries. It is used to produce SO 2 which is converted, in the Contact process, into SO 3 which is used for the manufacture of sulfuric acid. The diagram below shows an energy cycle involving SO 2. (i) In the energy cycle above, what enthalpy change is represented by H 1? …………………………………………………………………………………………………… (ii) At 298 K, Hc o(SO2) = –99 kJ mol–1 and Hf o(SO2) = –297 kJ mol–1. Use these data to calculate the standard enthalpy change of formation of SO3. [3] [Total: 9] 2SO2(g) + O2(g) 2SO3(g) 2S(s) + 3O2(g) H1 H2 H3 energy

AJC JC2 PRELIM 2015 8872/02/H1 8 4 Acetals are compounds formed when aldehydes are reacted with an alcohol in the presence of an acid catalyst. H + CH3CH2CHO(l) + 2CH3CH2OH(l) CH3CH2CH(OCH2CH3)2(l) + H2O(l) propanal ethanol acetal F A student mixed 0.10 mol of propanal in a conical flask with 9.2 g of ethanol in 25.0 cm 3 of an inert solvent dioxan. Then, he carefully added concentrated sulfuric acid, H 2SO4. The flask was sealed with a stopper and allowed to equilibrate in a thermostatic water bath. After equilibrium is reached, the student titrated quickly the entire contents of the conical flask with a solution containing aqueous NaOH and 1.00 mol dm ‒3 aqueous KMnO4, from a burette. The solution turned permanently purple when 25.30 cm 3 of KMnO4 had been added. The student postulated that the following equa
