- Solids have a definite volume and shape
- Liquids have a definite volume but no definite shape
- Gases have no definite volume or shape
- Solids: particles close together / no space between particles / particles arranged regularly / particles touching
- Solids: particles only vibrate
- Allow: particles cannot move / particles in fixed positions
- Liquids: particles can slide over each other / particles have limited movement
- Ignore: particles can move unqualified
- Liquids: particles close together / particles not arranged regularly / particles arranged randomly / particles not in fixed positions
- Ignore: particles further apart than in solids
- Gases: particles far apart / particles arranged randomly
- Gases: particles can move everywhere / particles move anywhere / particles move randomly
- Note: It must be clear which state is being referred to
- Note: There must be reference to particles (or atoms / molecules / ions) in the answer to gain marks
Solids have a definite volume and shape because the particles are close together, arranged regularly, and can only vibrate in fixed positions.
Liquids have a definite volume but no definite shape because the particles are close together, arranged randomly, and can slide over each other with limited movement.
Gases have no definite volume or shape because the particles are far apart, arranged randomly, and can move everywhere or randomly.

- Q1: Magnesium phosphate contains magnesium ions, Mg2+, and phosphate ions, PO43–. Deduce the formula of magnesium phosphate. [1]
-
Mark Scheme:
- Mg3(PO4)2 [1]
Magnesium ion: Mg2+ (charge +2), Phosphate ion: PO43– (charge -3).
To balance charges, the total positive charge must equal the total negative charge.
3 × (+2) = +6 (from 3 Mg2+) and 2 × (–3) = –6 (from 2 PO43–).
Hence, the formula of magnesium phosphate is Mg3(PO4)2.
Alternatively, the charges on the top right of ions become the subscript of the opposite ions, while creating the formula for the compound
- Q2: Sulfur dioxide reacts with aqueous sodium sulfite to produce a compound with the following composition by mass: 29.1% Na, 40.5% S and 30.4% O. Calculate the empirical formula of this compound. Empirical formula = .............................. [3]
-
Mark Scheme:
- 29.1 / 23, 40.5 / 32, 30.4 / 16 or 1.2(65), 1.2(65), 1.9 [1]
- 1:1:1.5 [1]
- Empirical formula: Na2S2O3 [1]
Step 1: Divide each percentage by the relative atomic mass (Ar):
Na: 29.1 / 23 ≈ 1.27, S: 40.5 / 32 ≈ 1.27, O: 30.4 / 16 ≈ 1.9.
Step 2: Simplify the ratio by dividing by the smallest decimal[1.27]:
1.27 : 1.27 : 1.9 ≈ 1 : 1 : 1.5.
Step 3: Multiply through to remove fractions (×2):
2 : 2 : 3.
Therefore, the empirical formula is Na2S2O3.

- (b) Compound Y has the empirical formula H3PO4 and a relative molecular mass of 98.
- Deduce the molecular formula of compound Y. molecular formula = .............................. [1]
-
Mark Scheme:
- (a) M1: H = 3.66 / 1, P = 37.80 / 31, O = 58.54 / 16 OR H = 3.66, P = 1.22, O = 3.66 OR H:P:O = 3:1:3 [1]
- M2: H3PO3 [1]
- (b): H3PO4 [1]
(a) Divide by Ar: H = 3.66 / 1 ≈ 3.66, P = 37.80 / 31 ≈ 1.22, O = 58.54 / 16 ≈ 3.66.
Simplify ratio: H:P:O ≈ 3:1:3.
Therefore, the empirical formula is H3PO3.
(b) Relative molecular mass = 98. Empirical formula mass = 98 (H3PO4).
Since they match, the molecular formula is H3PO4.
Q1: Magnesium phosphate contains magnesium ions, Mg2+, and phosphate ions, PO43–. Deduce the formula of magnesium phosphate. [1]
Magnesium ion has a charge of +2 (Mg2+), and the phosphate ion has a charge of -3 (PO43–).
To deduce the formula of magnesium phosphate, the total positive charge from the magnesium ions must balance the total negative charge from the phosphate ions.
Step 1: Find the least common multiple (LCM) of the charges (+2 and -3), which is **6**.
Step 2: Determine the number of each ion needed to achieve a neutral compound:
- **3 magnesium ions** contribute a total charge of 3 × +2 = +6.
- **2 phosphate ions** contribute a total charge of 2 × -3 = -6.
Mg3(PO4)2.
Hence, the formula of magnesium phosphate is Mg3(PO4)2.

Question: The equation for the reaction is shown:
2Na(s) + 2H2O(l) → 2NaOH(aq) + H2(g)
Calculate the concentration of NaOH(aq) formed, in g/dm3, when 0.345 g of sodium is added to 50.0 cm3 of distilled water. Assume there is no change in volume.
Use the following steps:
● Calculate the number of moles of Na added.

● Determine the number of moles of NaOH formed.
= .............................. mol
● Calculate the concentration of NaOH in mol/dm3.
concentration of NaOH = .............................. mol/dm3
● Determine the Mr of NaOH and calculate the concentration of NaOH in g/dm3.
concentration of NaOH = .............................. g/dm3
-
Mark Scheme:
- M1: mol Na = 0.345 / 23 = 0.015(00) (1)
- M2: mol NaOH = M1 = 0.015(00) (1)
- M3: M2 × 1000 / 50 = 0.015(00) × 20 = 0.3(00) (1)
- M4: Mr NaOH = 40 (1)
- M5: M4 × M3 = 40 × 0.3 = 12.(0) g/dm3 (1)
Step 1: Calculate the number of moles of Na added.
Number of moles = mass / Ar = 0.345 g / 23 = 0.015 mol.
Step 2: Determine the number of moles of NaOH formed.
From the balanced equation, 2 mol of Na produces 2 mol of NaOH.
Therefore, moles of NaOH = moles of Na = 0.015 mol.
Step 3: Calculate the concentration of NaOH in mol/dm3.
Concentration = moles × (1000 / volume in cm3).
Volume = 50.0 cm3, so:
Concentration = 0.015 × (1000 / 50) = 0.3 mol/dm3.
Step 4: Determine the Mr of NaOH and calculate the concentration in g/dm3.
Mr of NaOH = 23 (Na) + 16 (O) + 1 (H) = 40.
Concentration in g/dm3 = Mr × concentration in mol/dm3.
= 40 × 0.3 = 12.0 g/dm3.
Therefore, the concentration of NaOH is 12.0 g/dm3.
- Q1: Calculate the volume of oxygen, measured at r.t.p., which is formed when 1.60 g of CuO reacts as shown in the equation:
- 4CuO → 2Cu2O + O2
- Volume: .................................................... dm3 [3]
- Mark Scheme:
- M1: mol CuO = (1.60 ÷ 80) = 0.02(00) mol [1]
- M2: mol O2 = (M1 ÷ 4 = 0.02 ÷ 4) = 0.005(00) mol [1]
- M3: vol O2 = M2 × 24.0 = 0.005 × 24.0 = 0.12(0) dm3 [1]
Step 1: Calculate the moles of CuO.
Moles of CuO = Mass ÷ Molar Mass = 1.60 ÷ 80 = 0.0200 mol
Step 2: Use the equation to find moles of O2.
From the equation, 4 mol of CuO produces 1 mol of O2.
Moles of O2 = Moles of CuO ÷ 4 = 0.0200 ÷ 4 = 0.00500 mol
Step 3: Calculate the volume of O2 at r.t.p.
Volume of O2 = Moles × 24.0 dm3
Volume of O2 = 0.00500 × 24.0 = 0.120 dm3
Final Answer: 0.12 dm3

- Mark Scheme:
- (i): 46 [1]
- (ii): 60 [1]
- (iii): moles of CH3CH2CH2OH = 0.1; methanoic acid is the limiting reagent [1]
(i) Calculate the Mr of methanoic acid (HCOOH):
Mr = (1 × H) + (1 × C) + (2 × O) + (1 × H) = 46
Answer: 46
(ii) Calculate the Mr of propanol (CH3CH2CH2OH):
Mr = (3 × C) + (8 × H) + (1 × O) + (1 × H) = 60
Answer: 60
(iii) Determine the limiting reagent:
Moles of propanol = Mass ÷ Mr = 6.0 ÷ 60 = 0.1 mol
Moles of methanoic acid = Mass ÷ Mr = 4.0 ÷ 46 ≈ 0.087 mol
Since methanoic acid has fewer moles (0.087 mol) compared to propanol (0.1 mol), methanoic acid is the limiting reagent.
Final Answer: Methanoic acid is the limiting reagent.

- Number of moles of CoCl2 formed = ........................................
- Number of moles of CoCl2·6H2O formed = ........................................
- Mass of one mole of CoCl2·6H2O = 238 g
- Maximum yield of CoCl2·6H2O = ........................................ g
- Mark Scheme:
- M1: Number of moles of HCl used = 0.04 × 2 = 0.08 [1]
- M2: Number of moles CoCl2 formed = 0.04 [1]
- M3: Number of moles CoCl2·6H2O formed = 0.04 [1]
- M4: Maximum yield of CoCl2·6H2O = 9.52 g [1]
- Allow: 9.5 g [ECF allowed on moles of HCl].
- Solution
-
Step 1: Calculate the number of moles of HCl used.
The volume of HCl is 40 cm3 (0.04 dm3) and the concentration is 2.0 mol/dm3.
Moles of HCl = concentration × volume = 2.0 × 0.04 = 0.08 mol. -
Step 2: Determine the moles of CoCl2 formed.
From the balanced equation:
CoCO3 + 2HCl → CoCl2 + CO2 + H2O
2 moles of HCl react to form 1 mole of CoCl2.
Moles of CoCl2 = 0.08 ÷ 2 = 0.04 mol. -
Step 3: Moles of CoCl2·6H2O formed.
From the equation:
CoCl2 + 6H2O → CoCl2·6H2O
1 mole of CoCl2 forms 1 mole of CoCl2·6H2O.
Therefore, moles of CoCl2·6H2O = 0.04 mol. -
Step 4: Calculate the mass of CoCl2·6H2O.
Mass = moles × molar mass
Mass = 0.04 × 238 = 9.52 g. -
Conclusion:
The maximum yield of CoCl2·6H2O is 9.52 g. The cobalt(II) carbonate is in excess since only 0.08 mol of HCl was used up.

Q1: Chloroethene (CH2=CHCl) can be manufactured from 1,2-dichloroethane (CH2ClCH2Cl).
The equation can be represented as shown:Cl H | | H — C — C — H → H — C = C — H + H — Cl | | | H Cl Cl
-
Some bond energies are given:
- C—C: 350 kJ/mol
- C=C: 610 kJ/mol
- C—Cl: 340 kJ/mol
- C—H: 410 kJ/mol
- H—Cl: 430 kJ/mol
-
Use the bond energies in the table to calculate the energy change, in kJ/mol, of the reaction.
Use the following steps:- Calculate the energy needed to break bonds.
- Calculate the energy released when bonds form.
- Calculate the energy change of the reaction.
- Mark Scheme:
- M1: 2670 (1)
- M2: 2610 (1)
- M3: (+) 60 (1)
Step 1: Energy needed to break bonds
Bonds broken in CH2ClCH2Cl:
- 1 × C—C = 350 kJ/mol
- 4 × C—H = 4 × 410 = 1640 kJ/mol
- 2 × C—Cl = 2 × 340 = 680 kJ/mol
Total energy needed = 350 + 1640 + 680 = 2670 kJ/mol
Step 2: Energy released when bonds form
Bonds formed in H—C=CH + HCl:
- 1 × C=C = 610 kJ/mol
- 2 × C—H = 2 × 410 = 820 kJ/mol
- 1 × H—Cl = 430 kJ/mol
Total energy released = 610 + 820 + 430 = 2610 kJ/mol
Step 3: Energy change of the reaction
Energy change = Energy needed to break bonds – Energy released when bonds form
= 2670 – 2610 = +60 kJ/mol.
Therefore, the energy change of the reaction is +60 kJ/mol.
