4. A student investigates the solubility of ammonium chloride by adding different masses to 10 g of water.
He uses the apparatus shown.

thermometer
solution
crystals of ammonium chloride
10 g of water is placed in a boiling tube and 3.0 g of ammonium chloride is added.
The tube is heated until all the solid dissolves.
The tube is allowed to cool.
The temperature at which solid ammonium chloride first appears is recorded.
The experiment is repeated using different masses of ammonium chloride.
The results are shown in the table.
Mass of ammonium chloride in 10 g of water (g) 3.0 3.3 4.1 5.2 5.9 6.6
Temperature at which solid ammonium chloride first appears (°C) 4 10 30 52 68 80
(a) What practical problem is the student likely to come across in finding the first two results? Suggest how this problem might be overcome. [2]

(c) The student is asked to use a different method to find the exact solubility of another compound in water at room temperature. He knows that it has a value of approximately 7 g per 100 g of water at this temperature.
He is given a 5.0 g sample of the compound and common laboratory equipment but no heating apparatus.
Describe how he would carry out his method and how he would find the solubility. [3]

5. (a) A bottle contains a mixture of liquids E and F. Liquid E has a boiling point of 57 °C and liquid F has a boiling point of 95 °C.
Describe the process of distillation and explain why it can be used to separate these liquids. [3]
(b) One molecule of liquid E contains two oxygen atoms. The percentage by mass of oxygen in liquid E is 43.2 %.
Use the following equation to calculate the relative molecular mass (Mr) of liquid E. [2]

6 Indicative content • removal of temporary hardness by boiling • hydrogencarbonate ions are not thermally stable and decompose easily on
heating • this forms a layer of calcium carbonate (inside kettles) • calcium hydrogencarbonate → calcium carbonate + water + carbon dioxide • Ca(HCO3)2 → CaCO3 + H2O + CO2 • boiling does not remove permanent hardness • removal of permanent hardness by adding washing soda/sodium carbonate • this forms a (white) precipitate • sodium carbonate + calcium sulfate → calcium carbonate + sodium sulfate • Na2CO3 + CaSO4 → CaCO3 + Na2SO4

5-6 marks Detailed description of how hard water is softened using both methods; one correct equation There is a sustained line of reasoning which is coherent, relevant, substantiated and logically structured. The candidate uses appropriate scientific terminology and accurate spelling, punctuation and grammar. 3-4 marks Good description of how water is softened using both methods There is a line of reasoning which is partially coherent, largely relevant, supported by some evidence and with some structure. The candidate uses mainly appropriate scientific terminology and some accurate spelling, punctuation and grammar. 1-2 marks Brief description of how water is softened using one of the methods There is a basic line of reasoning which is not coherent, largely irrelevant, supported by limited evidence and with very little structure. The candidate uses limited scientific terminology and inaccuracies in spelling, punctuation and grammar. 0 marks No attempt made or no response worthy of credit.
