Q

How to prepare insoluble salt

A

Precipitation
1. Mix the solutions to produce a precipitate
2. Filter the mixture to obtain a residue
3. Wash the residue with a small amount of distilled water to remove any impurities
4. Dry the precipitate between a few sheets of filter paper

Q

Why need to add solid in excess for solid-acid reaction

A

To ensure the reaction is complete and all the soluble reactant is used up (to prevent contamination)

  1. Protective layer
  2. Galvanising
  3. Sacrificial protection
  4. Alloys
21
Q

Rusting formula

A

Iron + Oxygen + Water –> Hydrated iron III oxide

4Fe + 3O2 + 2xH2O –> 2Fe2O3.xH2O

22
Q

Acid-Alkali reaction (pH)

A

Use pH meter to measure rate of change in pH

23
Q

Colour change

A

Use a colorimeter to measure the change in intensity of colour

24
Q

Production of ppt

A
  1. Conductivity meter to measure the change in concentration of mobile ions over time (electrical conductivity)
    1. Mark a thick big cross in pencil on a piece of white paper
  2. Stand a 100cm3 beaker over the cross on the paper
  3. (do the experiment)
  4. Observe the cross by looking vertically down through the solution from above the beaker. Record the time taken to the nearest seconds when the cross just disappears completely
  5. Work out the reciprocal of the time for the cross to disappear. This is proportional to the average rate of reaction during that interval of time

cannot determine instantaneous

25
Q

Gas collection

A
  1. Assemble gas collection apparatus as shown in the diagram below
  2. Carefully but quickly add the zinc to the nitric acid in the flask and start the stop watch at the same time
  3. Stop the stopwatch when 15cm3 of ____ has been collected in the gas syringe
26
Q

Pressure (equilibrium)

A

Shift to side with more moles to increase pressure
Shift to side with less moles to decrease pressure

26
Q

Concentration (equilibrium)

A

When increase conc on left, move right (remove)
When decrease on left, move left (produce more)

27
Q

Temperature (equilibrium)

A

Move towards exo reaction to release heat
Move towards endo reaction to absorb extra heat

28
Q

Catalyst (equilibrium)

A

Achieve equilibrium at a faster rate
