The carbon cycle is part of the natural exchange and
recycling of materials in the environment. It relies
on energy to bring about the changes involved. In
the case of the carbon cycle this energy comes from
chemical changes one of which is photosynthesis –
a photochemical reaction dependent on sunlight.
Discussion could include reference to the major
sources of energy that maintain the temperature
of the planet, i.e. energy from the Sun and from
radioactive decay in the Earth.

Knowing whether a substance is a solid, liquid
or gas at room temperature – and how easily
a substance can change its state – helps us
in handling the different substances and in
separating them and purifying them from
mixtures. It is important to realise that any
substance can exist in any of the three states,
depending on the conditions of temperature
and pressure.
Knowing whether a sample is an element,
compound or mixture helps us in knowing
and predicting the chemical properties of a
substance. These distinctions are mutually
exclusive and therefore are more fundamental
to our understanding.
The word ‘particle’ is needed when talking in
generalisations about the structure and movement
of the constituents of matter. The context should
always be defined to distinguish this scientific use
of the word from the more everyday use when it
can be a speck of dust etc. The one key experiment
where the two uses interact is in the description of
Brownian motion.
Here the unseen motion of atoms and molecules in
a fluid is demonstrated by the jerky, random motion
of the dust particles as they are hit by the submicroscopic particles that make up matter.
One aspect that can be discussed, and needs to
be referred to, is the key definition of the size of
the ‘particles’ involved when the term is used.
Descriptions such as ‘sub-microscopic’ and
‘subatomic’ are useful.
The particles are in fixed positions [1];
they vibrate about their fixed position [1]. [2]

Mendeleev knew nothing of atomic structure
and had no concept of proton number (atomic
number). He based his arrangement of the elements
into groups on their atomic masses and the patterns
he saw in their properties. It was his analysis of
the repeated (periodic) patterns in physical and
chemical properties that made his achievement so
remarkable.
This was difficult because not all the elements had
been discovered – for instance, the whole group
of noble gases had not yet been discovered. But he
realised that there were elements that were still to be
found and left gaps for these. Indeed, he predicted
the properties of some elements in anticipation of
their discovery.
Electrical conductivity in metallic elements
and alloys requires that their bonding results in
there being free mobile electrons that can move
through the structure to carry the current. In
other elements and compounds, the electrons are
all held in fixed bonding positions and cannot
move through the lattice. The exception to this
is carbon, in the form of graphite, where there
are electrons free to move between the layered
sheets of the structure. This type of electrical
conductivity can take place in the solid and
liquid states.
There is another form of conductivity – electrolytic
conductivity – which takes place when ionic
compounds are melted or dissolved in water. Here
it is the ions that move between the electrodes to
carry the current. There must be ions present for
this to happen, so covalent liquids (such as ethanol)
cannot conduct in this way. They are made up of
neutral molecules.

a There is a colour change which shows that there
might be a reaction, and new substance(s) are
formed / a gas is given off.
b The most reliable evidence for a chemical
reaction is that a gas is given off which can be
identified as carbon dioxide.
c copper carbonate → copper oxide + carbon
dioxide
zinc carbonate → zinc oxide + carbon dioxide
d Zinc oxide is a white solid which turns yellow
when heated. When cooled, the solid turns
white again.
e No, it is a physical change.
a The definition in terms of oxygen gain or
loss is the most obvious – and is the origin of
the terminology. However, the definition in
terms of electrons is the broader and more
widely applicable of the two. It is relevant to
more situations, including the important ones
involved in electrolysis and the generation of
electricity in batteries.
b Whichever definition is used, it is impossible to
have oxidation taking place without something
else in the reacting mixture being reduced. If
something is gaining oxygen or losing electrons,
then another reactant must be losing the oxygen
or gaining the electrons. This follows the general
principle that matter cannot be created or
destroyed in a chemical reaction.
The processes of oxidation and reduction can
be physically separated in an electrolytic cell, for
instance, but the overall reaction of the cell is still
a redox reaction.

The process of dissolving takes place when the
molecules of water are able to break up the lattice
structure of the ions in the solid salt. If the bonding
between the ions in the solid is too strong, then
the water molecules are not able to break up the
structure. The strength of the bonding in an ionic
solid depends on the size and charge of the ions.
There are some guidelines that help us know which
salts are soluble in water and which are not.

In understanding the different uses of the word
‘strong’ in these cases, we have to focus on the way
the adjective is being applied.
In the first case, the term is being applied to the
solution – ‘the coffee is strong’ means that it is
concentrated. A weak cup of coffee would have a
low concentration of coffee.
In the second case, the word is applied to the nature
of the acid itself – not the solution – the strong acid
is fully ionised in water. It is therefore possible to
have a dilute solution of a strong acid.
Remember, in chemistry, to use the words
‘concentrated’ and ‘dilute’ when talking about how
concentrated a solution is.

When dealing with solids, the most obvious
practical way of measuring the amount of a
substance is to weigh it. To make sure we are using
the right proportions of atoms or molecules, we
have to take into account that the atoms of the
elements have different masses. This is done by
using the relative formula masses of the substances
involved in a reaction.
When dealing with gases, the most practical
measure of the amount of a gas is its volume.
Here we are helped by the fact that, in a gas,
the particles are relatively very far apart – a
volume of gas is largely empty space. The volume
occupied by one mole of any gas is the same
whichever gas we are talking of – it is unaffected
by the size of the gas molecules themselves.
When working with reacting gases, we can use
the reacting volumes of gases in calculations –
the balancing numbers in the equation tell us the
reacting ratios; we do not need to work with the
formula masses.

Although there are some cases where recycling has

not always the case. The most important argument

The impact of efficient recycling can be wideranging. The demand for rare metals for the
electronics and media industries puts great pressure
on the need to find new mineral resources and the
development of new mining ventures. This can
bring conflicts with environmental concerns in
some of the most untouched areas of the world.
Efficient recycling could delay some of these

The products of burning methane, ethanol and fuels
such as gasoline are the same – the question is more
one of the efficiency and our ability to use the fuels
cleanly. Methane and ethanol are single compounds
but gasoline is a mixture of hydrocarbons and more
difficult to burn completely. Incomplete combustion
gives rise to pollution with carbon monoxide, soot
and particulates.

Analysis of the substances we discover and use
in the wide variety of activities that shape our
lives is important in terms of our control of our
environment, the efficient use of resources available
to us and our protection from the harmful effects
of contamination and misuse. Chemical analysis
can be used in industry, medicine, agriculture
and environmental science. We need to know
what chemicals we are dealing with. Analytical
techniques, from the simple to the complex, help
us to do just that. A medical drug company might
need to analyse the painkiller paracetamol, for
instance, in order to maintain the purity of the
product it is marketing. A steel-making company
must check if the content of a batch of steel
matched the customer’s requested composition. An
environmental analyst might have to check river
water for contamination with small amounts of
metal ions, which may be harmful to local wildlife
and also in the drinking water supply.
