Chemistry: Post your doubts here!

[sagystu]

hey everybody , i need some classified past papers to paper 2 or paper 4 ? can any body help me with that pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeee

thanks a lot in advance

 

[asexamskillme111]

Can anyone help me with 2008 Oct/Nov paper 4 question 2 (b).
http://papers.xtremepapers.com/CIE/...d AS Level/Chemistry (9701)/9701_w08_qp_4.pdf
I don't understand how they got the numerical values. Thank you.

can anyone tell me how enthalpy change of hydration decreases with increasing size of ion?

can anyone tell me how enthalpy change of hydration decreases with increasing size of ion?

hey i think its like that..

when the size of the ion increases they have weaker charge density because now the same charge spreads over a larger volume. weaker charge density means they will not strongly attract the dipoles of water molecules so they will be less soluble in water and therefore they will have a more positive or less negative value of enthalpy change of hydration.

makes sense ?

b) Each option gives a case choosing one of the three to be the slowest step, which the rate-determining step. The reactants of the equation in every case should appear in the rate equation if they affect the equilibrium. Taking step I, we have H2O2 + I– ---> IO– + H2O , this has H2O2 and iodide but no hydrogen ions. so the order for hydrogen would be zero, and that for the other two, 1.
a=1, b=1, c=0

Step II: (IO-) + (H+) ---> HOI here there is hydrogen so for c =1, but the other reagent is an intermediate that *never* appear in a rate equation. the intermediate was formed using H2O2 and I- so the instead of IO-, these would appear i.e.
a=1 and b=1, c=1

Step III: The equation is HOI + H+ + I– ==> I2 + H2O
there is again an intermediate HOI, this was formed using H+ and IO-. This means that there would be two sources of hydrogen ions, one the third equation and the other the second equation, giving c=2. IO- takes us back to the first equation, which uses H2O2 and I-, leaving us again with two sources of I- ( the third eq. and the first one) so b=2. H2O2 comes only once, so a=1.
a=1, b=2, c=2.

Hope it helps.

can anyone ans this for me....?
1)explain why hydrogen is evolved more slowly from methanoic acid solution than a HCL solution?
2)explain why, eventually,the methanoic acid sol produces as much hydrogen as the HCL solution?
add data given: Methanoic acid and hcl both are being reacted to an excess of Magnesium powder .
For a fixed amount of Mg, the rate equation for the reaction is:
rate= k [H+(aq)]

question is 2

yes its right thanks alot i was also thinking that charge density had rolo in this

I need URGENT help on this paper 5 question​

I have a question from May June 2008 PAPER 5 Q2 part f, i don't get how to draw these lines do we need to find the value and which x and y values to take? can someone plz explain.

f)Draw construction lines on the graph to derive values to enable you to calculate

the relative formula mass of the basic copper(II) carbonate and the value of x in
CuCO3.Cu(OH)2.xH2O.
Values read from graph, including units
x-axis ...................................................... y-axis ...........................................................
Calculation of the relative formula mass, Mr

[iKhaled]

hello,

can any chemist please explain why when mixing two solutions of equal volume their concentration is diluted by 2 ???

 

[Student12]

I have a question which is on rate of reaction,

PCl3 + Cl2 ----> PCl5

[PCl3]/M [Cl2]/M Rate
0.36. 1.26. 6.0x10^-4
0.36. 0.63. 1.5 x 10^-4
0.72. 2.52. 4.8x 10^-3

deduce the rate equation and rate constant.

can someone please show me the complete working.

One thing i need to ask:

that in A2 organic how much of the AS we need to know specifically or its like all ov it?

 

[aalmuhannadi]

Here's a confusing question even my teacher had a hard time with (and it was in the AS paper 1, not A2!)

1. 34 Silver chloride dissolves in aqueous ammonia.
   What happens in this process?
   1. 1 A co-ordinate bond is formed.
   2. 2 The oxidation number of nitrogen is unchanged.
   3. 3 Ammonia acts as a Brønsted-Lowry base.

The solubility product is a complex silver ion I believe, which is clearly on the A2 syllabus only not the AS, and yet this was on paper one. On chemguide.co.uk, it lists the equation which forms this ion as not being needed by the AS NOR the A2 syllabus! Can someone please explain how to solve this question with the knowledge that an AS student would already have? Thanks!!
