samy said:how do v know wen v have to find gradient?? like in oct/nov 2010 paper 53 ques 2 part d (ii)...n how does this tell us about the answer??
and can someody please tell exactly wat is a construction line??

Construction lines are nothing but 2 perpendicular lines drawn to the graph (they form a triangle) with the hypotenuse being the straight line of the graph.
To find the gradient: y2 - y1 / x2 - x1 (where x and y are points on the graph)
for part d (ii): It is suitable for the determination of the partition coeffiicient because a straight line is obtained which passes thru the origin, with few anamolous points
samy said:for part (ii) mark scheme sayx Correctly calculates the value of the gradient. This should be in
the order of 16.3/0.061. ECF incorrect intercepts.
Yes, Since the results produce a good linear/straight line graph,
the procedure is OK.
Normally a “no” answer is not acceptable. Do not accept an
unjustified “yes” answer.
so how do v know that for this v have to find gradient?

If you have any experimental procedures (not calculations and graph works because I find it very difficult to explain them online) please post the question here. And sorry for not replying to some of the questions, it is just that explaining how to draw construction lines and other stuffs of Q. 2 , I just can't do them online!!!!!!

I am presuming "I on Y-axis and Zn on X- axis"ParanoidAleveler said:zeebujha said:okay guys, I think I am done with this post.

First of all, thanks SO much for all the tips you hav mentioned! U hav NO idea how much this has helped me!
O/N 2009 PAPER 5.
Question 2 (e)
This isnt related to a graph. Well there are ratios of I : Zn. I just wanted to know whts wrong with the experiment if the ratio is too high or too low.
Thnks

Thnks
If ratio is too high, we can deduce that I is higher than it should be. Or it ccould also mean mass of Zn used calculated is lower than it should be. So, what could give a lower than required mass of used Zn? Well, if mass of Zn is determined by subtracting the mass of excess Zn from mass of original sample, the mass excess Zn is lower than required. That could be due to the fact that not all of the ethanol used in the washing process has been evaporated and thus the mass of ethanol adds to the mass of excess Zn.
If ratio is too low, we can similarly say that mass of excess Zn is lower than the true value. What could be causing this??Probably some of the excess Zn was lost during the drying cooling process and this could have been due to the Zn being blown out of the tube when the tube is left to dry.
These two are the only points that come to my mind right now. But if you understand the basic principle behind the increased or decreased ratio, you should be able to guess what factors result in those principles
