Jupiter and Saturn are the biggest of the
planets in our solar system and are made of
hydrogen and helium in the gaseous state.
There is a progression outwards from the Sun
in terms of the structure of the planets. Those
nearest the Sun are rocky and relatively small;
beyond Mars the planets are gaseous.
Hydrogen molecules are the smallest of all
the elements and therefore the forces between
them are very small. The gas needs to be
highly compressed (so that the molecules are
close together) and at a very low temperature
(so that the molecules are moving slowly) in
order for it to condense into a liquid.

ethanol and mercury; they have melting
points below room temperature, but
boiling points above room temperature
c
the impurity lowers the freezing point of
the liquid
a
a volatile liquid is one that evaporates
easily; it has a low boiling point
b
ethanol > water > ethanoic acid;
ethanol is the most volatile, ethanoic acid
is the least volatile
c
B; both the melting point and boiling
point are above room temperature;
therefore, it is a solid
a
if heated strongly then the temperature
rises very quickly, the melting and boiling
points are close together, the liquid stage
is not seen as it boils quickly
b
you would need to heat the solid slowly so
that the temperature rise is not too quick;
you could use an electrical heater so you
can control temperature more carefully;
you could use an oil bath to heat the solid
and carefully control the temperature so it
is kept between the melting point (114 °C)
and boiling point (184 °C) of iodine
Experimental skills 1.1
1
Substance B is a pure substance as the curve is
flat while the substance melts. Substance A is
a mixture as there is no single melting point –
that region of the curve is sloped.
2
Take temperature readings at shorter time
intervals (e.g. every 30 s); use of a digital
thermometer would give more accurate
readings / use of a temperature sensor linked
to a computer would enable the readings to be
taken continuously and enable the graph to be
plotted as the readings were being taken. The
samples can be re-heated and cooled again,
allowing duplicate sets of data to be collected.

10 In a the liquid levels are the same as there is
air both inside and outside the porous pot
cylinder; in b hydrogen diffuses into the pot
faster than air molecules diffuse out because
hydrogen molecules have less mass than the air
molecules; this produces an increase in pressure
inside the pot and so the liquid level is pushed
down on the left (and up on the right).

Evaporation of bromine takes place as
molecules escape from the surface of the
liquid, the gaseous bromine molecules then
spread throughout the gas jar to completely
fill the container, there are collisions with
air molecules, bromine molecules move
from a region of high concentration to
low concentration and so are completely
mixed with the air and at the same
concentration throughout.
a
Methylamine molecules have a greater
mass than ammonia molecules and so
diffuse more slowly; the white smoke ring
will be more central than for ammonia/
hydrogen chloride, slightly to the right of
centre as methylamine diffuses slightly
faster than hydrogen chloride.

b
C 50 s ;
[1]
rate of diffusion is inversely related to the
molecular mass ; heavier molecules, such
as HCl here, diffuse more slowly than
lighter molecules
Answers A and D are too short ; answer
B too long. Simple proportion would
suggest about 73 s, but the rate of
diffusion is inversely related to the square
root of the molecular mass. Ammonia
molecules diffuse 1.46 times as fast as
hydrogen chloride molecules. ;

‘H’ and ‘O’ are the chemical symbols for
a hydrogen atom and an oxygen atom,
respectively. Water consists of two hydrogen
atoms chemically bonded to one oxygen atom.
When atoms join together like this, they form
a molecule. A molecule must have more than
one atom in it.
You may have heard of protons, neutrons and
electrons; these are subatomic particles, and
they come together to make the many different
types of atom.
Science in context:
Seeing is believing

Protons are positively charged and would
therefore repel each other / the presence of the
neutrons counteracts this repulsion and means
that the nucleus can hold together.
5
B
6
21 protons and neutrons; protons and
neutrons are both nucleons
7
Chlorine-37 has two more neutrons in
the nucleus.
8
A nitrogen atom has 7 protons and 7 electrons
and therefore is electrically neutral. All atoms
are electrically neutral.
Worked example 2.1
The rings are made up of carbon atoms
(not many elements can form rings like
this); carbon is the basis of the molecules
of life because it can form so many
different structures.
There are 19 atoms in all (count all the
corners); arranged in five hexagonal rings.
1
relative atomic mass of iridium is 192
Ar = (191 × 37.3) + (193 × 62.7) / 100 = 192.3
Answer corrected to three significant figures as
this is the accuracy of the data given.
2
That the proportions of the two isotopes
are 50:50 (1:1) as the relative atomic mass is
exactly midway between the masses of the
two isotopes.
Experimental skills 2.1
1
The metal present is responsible for
determining the colour seen in the flame.
The non-metal present is the same in all cases
and so cannot be responsible for the change.
2
It is a physical change.
3
It will be the salt which gave the bluest colour
flame. The results will depend on which salts
you tested.
Questions
1
proton = 1, neutron = 1, electron = 0
(or 1 / 1840)
2
15 protons, 16 neutrons, 15 electrons
3
An element is a substance that cannot be
broken down into anything simpler by
chemical means.
Atoms are the particles that make up all
substances; they are the smallest particle
of an element that shows the properties
of that element; they can join together to
make molecules.
Each element has its own type of atom – the
atoms of an element all have the same number
of protons and electrons.

Exploiting the properties
of graphene

There are two forms of carbon that have been
known for some time: diamond and graphite.
In more recent times the following forms
of carbon have been discovered: fullerenes
(such as C60 and C70), which are sometimes
referred to as bucky balls. This research was
extended to discover tubular forms referred to
as nanotubes. Most recently, the single-layered
form of carbon known as graphene has been
isolated. Many of these recently discovered
forms show a close relationship to graphite in
terms of their properties.
Graphite is a layered structure, with each layer
being a covalently bonded macromolecule.
These layers are very strong and so are very
resistant to forces applied at right angles to the
layer. However, the layers can slide over each
other so a force applied from the side causes
the layers to slip. The strength of graphite
depends on its orientation.

Wiring is most often made of copper (due to
high conductivity and flexibility).
2
Wiring is usually covered in plastic coating to
insulate the wires to ensure that the electricity
is conducted to where it is intended to go.
Plastic is used as the insulator as it is generally
flexible which is helpful as it can be easily
manipulated and will not crack.
3
Liquid metals do conduct electricity. Other
liquids that conduct include molten and
aqueous solutions of ionic substances.

The reaction is exothermic, generating

The fuel cell is considered to be environmentally
advantageous as the only emissions are
water vapour. However, to be considered
carbon-neutral involves a broader range of
considerations. These include the origins of the
raw materials – particularly the hydrogen and
the energy source used to generate it. There is
‘grey hydrogen’ obtained by steam-reforming
natural gas, or from electrolysis of water where
the electricity is produced by fossil fuel power

CFCs were very stable compounds and
were not degraded (broken down) until they
reached the upper atmosphere where they
released chlorine free radicals. These radicals
reacted with the ozone layer protecting
the Earth from harmful UV radiation.
‘Holes’ appeared in the upper atmosphere,
particularly over the Earth’s poles. CFCs were
banned by the Montreal Protocol. CFCs are
also greenhouse gases.
Use of refrigerants greatly improved food
storage and preservation and allowed for
the long-distance transportation of foods.
Air-conditioning made the workplace much
more comfortable in regions of intense or
extreme climate.

A fertiliser contains the nutrients that plants
need. It can be added to soil to improve
plant growth.

Increasing the temperature favours the
endothermic process, so the equilibrium
position will move to the right. / The
equilibrium counteracts the external
change in conditions so the endothermic
process absorbs the heat being supplied.

An oxidising agent is a substance that
will oxidise (add oxygen to) another
substance and is itself reduced during
a redox reaction. Examples: oxygen /
hydrogen peroxide / chlorine /
potassium manganate(VII)
A reducing agent is an element or
compound that will reduce (remove
oxygen from) another substance and is
itself oxidised during a redox reaction.
Examples: hydrogen / carbon / carbon
monoxide / a reactive metal
Reduction is the gain of electrons; oxidation
is the loss of electrons. During a redox
reaction the oxidising agent gains electrons;
the oxidising agent is itself reduced during
the reaction.
a
No, even in a reaction such as the burning
of magnesium the magnesium is obviously

Many of these terms come from what
was an impressive age of Islamic science
and mathematics centred around the
Mediterranean (including southern Spain).
Modern terms such as algebra have an Arabic
origin. The period was linked to the practice
of alchemy, which included some truly
experimental science together with the more
mystical aspects and practices.
Strong alkali needs to be removed from soap
as it causes skin burns and can be particularly
dangerous for the eyes. Modern soaps do have
an interestingly wide range of pH. Most are
not actually neutral (pH = 7.0). It is worth

The fact that there are mobile, delocalised
electrons in the structure of a metal means
that they conduct electricity. Metallic bonding
means that the layers of metal ions in the
structure can move over each other without
the bonding breaking; therefore they are
malleable and ductile.

Mining the ocean floor
1
2
The metallic nodules are rich in the metals in
demand and it would be relatively easy to extract
the required metals. There are various different
sites in different regions of the ocean floor. The
damage to the ocean floor itself through what is
effectively open-cast mining would be significant,
as would the damage to the habitat of marine
species about which we know relatively little.
The dependence on a single land-based source
is open to political and economic dangers;
and could lead to exploitation of the local
population and create socio-economic tensions.

2
Zinc is more effective because if the surface
layer is broken the zinc will still protect the
steel beneath as it is more reactive than iron
(sacrificial protection) / chromium will not
protect if the layer is broken as it is less
reactive than iron.
Because of the high cost of electricity, which
is needed in large quantities / also the carbon
anodes need replacing regularly.
5
The cryolite lowers the melting point of the
electrolyte / because this makes the temperature
needed to melt the aluminium oxide much lower.
6
Because the oxygen produced at the anode
causes the graphite anodes to burn away as
carbon dioxide.

c
the zinc or magnesium is more reactive

they are corroded rather than the iron /
sacrificial protection [1] ;
d
Aluminium does not corrode because it
has a natural surface layer of aluminium
oxide. [1] ; This protects the metal by
preventing it coming into contact
with air. [1] ;

Science in context: The growing
problem of air pollution
1
2
Possible reasons include population density
(the greater the number of people, the higher
the levels of pollution will tend to be),
presence of particular types of industry (living
closer to large factories will generally mean
poorer air quality), impact of events such as
forest/bush fires, government initiatives to
reduce levels of airborne pollution, etc.
Factors that might encourage more
environmentally friendly options include
education (an understanding of the problems
caused to the environment), tax incentives
(reducing the cost of more environmentally
friendly solutions), cost savings (switching
off electrical equipment when not in use is
both good for the environment and saves
money), etc. Factors that might prevent more
environmentally friendly options include cost
(too expensive), habit (used to always using
the car / not walking), inconvenience (easier
to drive on a wet day than walk), lack of
education, etc.

Oxides of nitrogen are formed when nitrogen
from the air reacts with oxygen at a high
temperature (e.g. in a car engine). They are
linked to the formation of acid rain and
photochemical smog.
5
2CO + 2NO → 2CO2 + N2
6
Carbon dioxide: product of the combustion
of fossil fuels. Methane: waste product from
livestock (cattle) and landfill sites.
7
Increased use of fossil fuels.
Rising sea levels so increased flooding and
faster rates of coastal erosion / changes to the
life cycles and migratory patterns of animals
and birds / more severe droughts and crop
failure / drying out of grasslands increases
the frequency and severity of wildfires / more
frequent and severe weather patterns.
Strategies include reducing use of fossil fuels
for transportation and electricity generation
(e.g. by using renewable sources of energy
such as wind and solar) / phasing out of diesel
and petrol cars and replacing with electric cars /
remove CO2 from the atmosphere / reduce
meat consumption / better separation of
household waste.
9
Greenhouse gases absorb and re-emit the
longer wavelength radiation reflected from the
Earth’s surface.
10 Cobalt chloride paper: colour change from
blue to pink. Alternatively, anhydrous
copper(II) sulfate: colour change from white
to blue.
11 Measure melting or boiling point. For pure
water, the melting point is 0 °C and the boiling
point 100 °C.
12 When nitrates and phosphates enter
waterways there is rapid growth of algae.
This can block out sunlight and lead to the
death of aquatic plants, which will reduce
levels of oxygen in the water and so also kill
aquatic animals.
13 Useful metals include calcium (supports the
health of teeth and bones) and iron (needed
for the production of haemoglobin in red
blood cells). Problem metals include lead
(which can cause liver and kidney damage)
and mercury (which has been linked to
damage of the nervous system).
14 The majority of current plastics are not
biodegradable and are creating pollution,
especially in waterways. Biodegradable plastics
will break down naturally.
15 Microplastics removed by filtration using a
fine sand filter. Dissolved organic compounds
removed by an activated carbon filter.
Microbes are removed by disinfection
using chlorine.

The fullerenes, despite the fact that they

are considered to be simple molecular
substances. The forces between these large
simple molecules are relatively weak compared
to covalent bonds.
The nanotubes are enclosed cylinders that can
contain the molecules of medicinal drugs –
protecting the drug molecules from the
environment as they move to the target organ.
The nanotubes are stable, biocompatible
polymers and can be tailored to form
containers that package the drug and carry
it across tissue barriers to the target site. The
nanotubes have free electrons at their surfaces.
The walls of the nanotubes can be modified
to provided water-liking or membrane-liking

Portable distillation units. Strengths: Provide
access to distilled water in remote areas
without need for large/expensive equipment
/ May be powered by renewable sources.
Weaknesses: If using solar power, the unit
will only operate under certain conditions /
Produce limited amounts of clean water / May
be limited access to replacement parts if there
is a failure / Would need to be very robust if
used in the field / May require training in safe
use / Could be expensive.

It will enable the material to dissolve
more quickly.

Salt is ionic and dissolves well in water.
If the solution is concentrated by heat then the
excess solid can be crystallised out. This would
not be a good method for producing iodine
crystals for several reasons. Iodine is toxic and
unlike sodium chloride it has covalent rather
than ionic bonding. Iodine is only partially
soluble in water.
Desalination units. Strengths: Provide
access to drinking water in areas with access
to seawater but limited freshwater / Can
be run continuously / Proven technology.
Weaknesses: May be limited access to parts
if there is a failure / The waste product can
be toxic to marine and coastal ecosystems /
Energy intensive as require high temperature
and pressure / Require training / Could
be expensive.

Distillation involves heating the liquid so
that components start to evaporate. As
they evaporate, they travel up through the
apparatus and into the condenser. In the
condenser the temperature is lower and so
the gas will condense. Different fractions
will separate at different temperatures due to
differences in their boiling points.
The filter straw needs to remove particles of
sand / silt / mud and harmful microbes such as
bacteria that can cause disease.

Questions
1
The temperature should be recorded either
with a thermometer or a digital temperature
probe and meter. The volumes could be
measured with a measuring cylinder or for
greater accuracy a fixed volume could be
measured using a volumetric pipette and a
variable volume by use of the burette.
4
If there are two or more dots in a vertical line
then the substance is a mixture.
5
A substance that remains on the baseline
is insoluble in the solvent used. To improve
the experiment the student needs to use an
alternative solvent, e.g. swapping from water
to ethanol.
The teacher was not correct. The data has
a narrow spread of results and so is precise;
however, it is not accurate as the average of
these results is not very close to the true value.

Error in the mass is 0.1/1.3 × 100% = 7.7%.
Error in volume is 0.5/10.0 × 100% = 5.0%.
The largest error is in the mass. Random
errors could be reduced by repeating the
experiment several times, checking for and
removing anomalies and then calculating a
mean average.
Rf = distance moved by sample/distance
moved by solvent front
Distance moved by sample
= Rf × distance moved by solvent front
Distance moved by sample
= 0.82 × 9.7 = 8.0 cm.

Step a: The baseline needs to be drawn in
pencil, not pen, as the pen could be soluble.
Step c: The solvent should fall between the
bottom of the paper and the baseline; it must
not cover the base line as the samples will
dissolve into the solvent and not travel up
through the paper.
Step d: The solvent should not travel all the
way up but must be stopped just before it gets
to the top of the paper. If this is not done then
samples will continue to travel up the paper.

light green flame would indicate the presence
of barium ions. Barium sulfate is BaSO4.
Getting started
Criteria for a chemical test might include: It needs
to give a clear result (e.g. a colour change) /
It should be specific (i.e. works for only one
chemical) / Ideally it should be quick and simple
to use / Should not use hazardous chemicals
Reactions students might have seen include:
Standard tests for gases such as hydrogen, oxygen
and carbon dioxide / Standard test for a double
bond (bromine water) / Standard test for an acid
(addition of a carbonate) / Possible tests for the
presence of cations and anions
These tests might be needed by: Companies
monitoring the quality of air or water
/ Government bodies / Health and
safety committees
3
Tap water can contain dissolved ions and
may have given a false positive result, with
the colour being from the impurities and not
the sample. The experimental design can be
improved by using distilled water.

A precipitate is an insoluble compound
produced during a precipitation reaction (the
reaction that produces an insoluble salt when
solutions of two soluble salts are mixed).
2
Iron(II) precipitates are green in colour;
iron(III) precipitates are brown in colour.
3
Ammonia is a base.
To ensure their conclusions were valid: To check
results are repeatable / To sample multiple times

2
Mineral water might be thought of as pure
because it has had no other chemicals added
to it and it has come from a natural source.
Chemically, mineral water is not pure. It is a
mixture, because it contains dissolved impurities.
Questions
7
Iron(II) chloride would initially produce a
green precipitate. Iron(III) chloride would
produce a brown precipitate.
One problem is to ensure that the water does
not contain harmful microbes (these would
normally be removed by disinfection using
chlorine). Another problem is the potential for
changes in composition that may result from
seasonal weather variations.
8
When sodium hydroxide solution is added
to copper(II) sulfate solution, a light blue
precipitate is formed. When dilute ammonia
solution is added to copper(II) sulfate
solution, initially a light blue precipitate is
formed but as more ammonia solution is
added this dissolves and produces a dark
blue solution.
9
A green precipitate could indicate the presence
of either iron(II) or chromium(III) ions and so
their conclusion was not valid. To produce a
valid result, the test should be repeated using
excess sodium hydroxide. If a green precipitate
forms but then redissolves, the sample
contains chromium(III).
Questions

1
The nichrome wire probe is cleaned by
placing it alternately in a roaring flame and
concentrated acid. Once clean it can be dipped
in the acid and then into the sample containing
the sodium ions. A positive test for sodium ions
will be the production of a yellow flame.
2
The lilac flame would indicate the presence of
potassium ions. Potassium sulfate is K2SO4.
The red flame would indicate the presence of
lithium ions. Lithium sulfate is Li2SO4. The

10 Student A’s results would be valid as the
calcium ions would produce an orange-red
flame; no detectable flame colour would
be seen with the zinc or aluminium ions.
Student B’s results would not be valid as both
zinc or aluminium precipitates redissolve in
excess sodium hydroxide. To produce a valid
conclusion student B would need to repeat the
experiment using dilute ammonia solution.
Under these conditions the precipitate
containing zinc ions would redissolve but not
that containing either calcium or aluminium.
18 The pieces of glassware are a volumetric
pipette that adds an accurate, fixed volume of
liquid and a burette, which adds an accurate
but variable volume of liquid.
11 In general, the reaction of a carbonate
with any acid produces carbon dioxide.
Sodium carbonate solution reacts with acids
as follows:
Sodium + sulfuric → sodium + carbon + water
carbonate
acid
sulfate dioxide
21 The mean titre would only use the results
within 0.10 cm3: i.e. mean titre = (12.15 cm3 +
12.10 cm3 + 12.10 cm3)/3 = 12.12 cm3.
Na2CO3(aq) + H2SO4 (aq) →
Na2SO4 (aq) + CO2(aq) + H2O(l)
Sodium + nitric → sodium + carbon + water
carbonate
acid
nitrate dioxide
Na2CO3(aq) + 2HNO3 (aq) →
2NaNO3 (aq) + CO2(g) + H2O(l)
12 Acidified silver nitrate would produce a yellow
precipitate with the magnesium iodide and a
white precipitate with the magnesium chloride.
19 Methyl orange and thymolphthalein both
produce clear colour changes at the end-point,
universal indicator does not.
20 Swirling ensures everything is mixed and
also ensures liquid that might have splashed
onto the sides of the flask is returned to
the reaction.
