For questions 4 and 5, candidates are required to give paragraph-length answers. 3 of the
marks for each of these two questions will be awarded for effective communication of
knowledge in Chemistry.

On a hot summer day, the engine of a moving bus suddenly caught fire. When the firemen
arrived, they used foam, instead of water, to put out the fire. After the fire was extinguished,
the firemen sprayed a lot of water onto the hot engine.
Discuss the conditions required for the fire to occur and explain the underlying principles of
the actions taken by the firemen.

Chemical Knowledge (6 marks)
Conditions for the fire to occur
diesel / lubricating oil / fuel used in the bus
oxygen / air / oxidant

Water cannot be used because it is immiscible with diesel / lubricating oil / fuel
and will spread the fire
or, diesel / lubricating oil / fuel floats on/is less dense than water and the fire will
spread
Foam can keep air away and the fire goes out
A lot of water was sprayed onto the engine to remove heat / to lower the
temperature, so as to eliminate the possibility of the re-ignition of diesel /

(The life of a cell has been determined from its use in a test with a motorized toy.)
(i) Decide and explain which type of cell should be used in a small CD-player
(Discman).
(ii) A package of 24 zinc-carbon cells is now being offered at a special price of
$49.90. Assuming that your radio consumes one zinc-carbon cell per month,
would you buy a package of these specially-priced cells for the use of your
radio? Explain your answer.

silver oxide cell during discharge:

(a)
(i)
Alkaline-manganese cell.
Silver oxide cell is not used because it is not of the right size.
Zinc-carbon cell is not used because its voltage drops quite rapidly.
(Award 1 mark only for the explanation:
alkaline-manganese cell is of the right size and has a steady voltage
over discharge.)

consumed/6 pieces will be wasted.
The average price per cell used = $49.9/18
= $2.77

cell.
