a) Study the standard electrode potentials do the half – cells given below and
answer the questions that follow. (The letters do nor represent the actual symbols of the elements.)
i) Identify the strongest oxidizing agent. Give a reason for your answer.
ii) Which two half – cells would produce the highest potential difference when combined? iii) Explain whether the reaction represented below can take place. b) 100cm3 of 2M sulphuric acid was electrolysed using the set – up represented by the diagram below.

The apparatus shown below shown below was used to investigate the effect of carbon monoxide on copper (II)oxide
a) State the observation that was made in the combustion tube at the end of the experiment.
b) Write an equation for the reaction that took place in the combustion tube c) Why is it necessary to burn the gas coming out of tube K?
Explain why hydrogen forms compounds in which its oxidation state is either + 1 or -1 (Atomic number of hydrogen is 1)
The table below shows the properties of substances K,L,M and N
Select the substances which are likely to be:
a) Copper metal b) Magnesium chloride
Expected Response
(a) Copper metal M
(b) Magnesium chloride K
An element P has a relative atomic mass of 88. When a current of 0.5 amperes was passed through the fused chloride of P for 32 minutes and 10 seconds, 0.44g of P were deposited at the cathode. Determine the charge on an ion of P. (1 faraday = 96500 Coulombs).
Expected Response
The melting point of phosphorous dichloride is – 910C. While that of magnesium chloride is 7150C.In terms of structure and bonding, explain the difference in their melting points.
Expected Response
Explain why burning magnesium continues to burn a gas was bubbled
The burning magnesium produces more heat energy that the burning splint. The heat energy from magnesium is enough to break the sulphur oxygen bond setting free oxygen. Magnesium uses freed oxygen to continue burning.
Explain why a burning magnesium ribbon continues to burn when placed in a gas jar containing carbon (iv) oxide gas but a burning splint is extinguished.
(b) Write an equation for the reaction that takes place in (a) above.
a)what observation would be made if hydrogen sulphide gas was bubbled through a solution of zinc nitrate?
b) write an equation for the reaction that takes place in (a) above |
