hi guys,
where could i find all the chemical reactions with their condition that i should know in chemistry 9709 (AS) for examination in 2014 ???
Help is highly appreciated

I never said that the anomalous points will be used to calculate the gradient ...i was saying that eg ...we have drawn a line ....and there are some points (points from the table)which lies accurately on the line ...and then its not allowed to draw the triangle using those particular points bcz even if the ans gets correct even then the marks are penalized for that.
phir?? which points do we have to take then?

Remember: Oxygen always has oxidation state -2 and hydrogen +1 (except metal hydrides e.g.NaH). Every uncombined element has zero oxidation number

A: Nitrogen has +3 oxidation number in NH3 which reduces to -2 in NO. The change is 5.
B: Oxidation number of nitrogen is +4 in NO2 and +5 in HNO3 as in the NO3- ion Oxygen has total of -6 so the ion has -1. The change is 1.
C: +2 in NO and +4 in NO2. Change is 2.
D: -3 in NH3 and +2 in NO.Zero in N2. Biggest change is 3.

Hence the greatest change is in A (5).

6 Three compounds have the physical properties shown in the table.

compound P Q R
melting point / °C 2852 993 –119
boiling point / °C 3600 1695 39
conductivity (solid) poor poor poor
conductivity (liquid) good good poor
conductivity (aqueous) insoluble good insoluble


What might be the identities of P, Q and R?

P Q R
A MgO KCl NH3
B MgO NaF C2H5Br
C SiO2 KCl C2H5Br
D SiO2 NaF HCl


35 When a firework is lit, a fuel and an oxidising agent react together.

In one such firework, magnesium is the fuel and barium nitrate is the oxidising agent.

Which solids are produced when the firework is lit?
1 BaO
2 MgO
3 Mg(NO3)2

What are the correct statements?


36 In a car engine, non-metallic element X forms a pollutant oxide Y.

Further oxidation of Y to Z occurs spontaneously in the atmosphere. In this further oxidation,
1 mol of Y reacts with 0.5 mol of gaseous oxygen.

Which statements about X, Y and Z are correct?
1 The oxidation number of X increases by 2 from Y to Z.
2 The molecule of Y has no unpaired electrons.
3 The molecule of Z contains three oxygen atoms.

What are the correct statements?

help me plz with this: A solutiion A is saturated with both calcium hydroxide and calsium sulphate. both are sparingly soluble. a)pH of A is 12.3 find concentration of OH-.
b) Ksp of calsium hydroxide =4.0*10^-5, find concentration of calcium ions in A
c)Ksp of calcium sulphhate is 2.5*10^-5, find conc of sulphate ions in A.

6) ans is B
cz R is liquid at rtp and according to choices.. bromoethane is liq so ans must be C or B..... and as P conducts electricity in liq state so it must be ionic that is Mgo..
so ans is B

35) in fireworks reactions, metal oxides are produced not metal nitrate so ans becomes B 1 &2

36) it says that further oxidation occurs spontaneously so X must be N, Y be NO...and Z be NO2.....
1 is correct cz in NO, N has ox state +2 and in NO2 it has +4
2 is wrong cz there are unpaired electron in molecule of No
3 is wrong cz NO2 has 2 oxygen atoms
