Title: Chemistry Paper 1
Post by: Naruto on June 07, 2009, 03:01:10 pm
hey
When i was going through the papers i didn't got the answer for the following questions and i guess the answers that i have are wrong so  can anyone tell me the answer and explian it too. Thanks :)

The answers that i have are:
16 is D
19 is C
39 is B

If you think these answers are correct then plzz explain and if not then what is the right answer? and again explain :P

I have attached the questions

16 i aint sure of but i say its
B

19 is definatly B as it contains an iodide which turns yellow.
39 is C as the number of molecules havent changed.. 2 carbons which weigh 12 and 4 hydrogens = Mr of 28
and the same thing for polyethene the Mr hasnt changed.

please dont answer if ur not sure of ur answers.....16 is D
19 is B
39 is B.....100 percent sure

19 is B 39 is B
and as for the 16 part my guess is that it isC
It cant be D because the time has started but the reaction hasnt..
it cant be A because th reaction has to slow down to come on an end
it cant be B because the speed of reaction is greatest when the aprticles have most energy/concentration..
so it is C (i guess)

+ rep if u like it
bcoz already mine is in minuses

16 is d for sure ,because during explosions very strong heat is released immediately and not gradually . so it increase and after explosions it decreases again
Title: Re: Chemistry Paper 1
Post by: Wahab09 on June 08, 2009, 05:19:44 pm
guys.. how the hell is 39 B..
its C for sure..

how the hell can u even get an empirical formula without knowing the % and stuff..

molecular formula is the same..
c 12 and c 12 make 24
h-h-h-h= 4

24+4 = 28..

the same with polyethene!

Post by: idk on June 08, 2009, 05:47:39 pm
ok well first 19 should be K2SO4 as yellow ppt produce by sulphur.
 16 according to me should be B as first the explosion reaction will cause inc. in rate of RX but then reaction will stabilise but continue at a certain speed.this can be seen in nuclear reactors too and thats why boron rods are put to regulate the speed of reaction.39 i think should be B as no matter what happens there will be 2 atoms of c and 4 atoms of h in 'n' number of molecules too.hope this helps.
Title: Re: Chemistry Paper 1
Post by: nid404 on June 08, 2009, 06:39:03 pm
19 is B
39 is B
16 is D(after a lot of research on explosion and reaction rate)
Title: Re: Chemistry Paper 1
Post by: Ghost Of Highbury on June 08, 2009, 06:46:27 pm
i think the 39 answer is B
In an addition polymerisation unsaturated monomer units react together to form a polymer with essentially the same empirical formula as the monomer

Post by: Ghost Of Highbury on June 08, 2009, 06:50:18 pm
for the 16th one i think its (b)
Title: Re: Chemistry Paper 1
Post by: jennie on June 08, 2009, 06:56:01 pm
16 = C
19 = B
39 = B
Title: Re: Chemistry Paper 1
Post by: nid404 on June 08, 2009, 06:57:32 pm
for the 16th one i think its (b)

no adi it's D for sure. It's an explosive reaction..i have done lot of research. and for 39 i earlier posted C because i thought C was empirical so sorry abt that
Title: Re: Chemistry Paper 1
Post by: Ghost Of Highbury on June 08, 2009, 06:59:28 pm
16 = C
19 = B
39 = B
three answers confused,,,!!!

hey and i chked out in docbrown

they say that the speed of reaction in this experiment increases with time...but later slows down

are u sure??
and yaa its the empirical thingy..no problemm...!!

they r normal reactions..the combustion of hydrogen is an explosive reaction...and so this is what happens..i'm 100% sure...i read one whole chapter of a book on explosive combustion reaction rates

Quick question: in 16, why does the hydrogen not start to react until a while into the experiment?

Quick question: in 16, why does the hydrogen not start to react until a while into the experiment?

hydrogen does not react instantly...it requires to initiated(even thought the reaction is exothermic)..There's something known as an activation energy that it requires...and so does not react instantly. But once it starts reacting, the reaction produces immense heat, which is more than the optimum energy for the reaction...remember that the reaction is exothermic so very high temperatures do not favour the reaction and the yield of the product decreases with time.

25 is A. Magnesium is more reactive than carbon..carbon cannot reduce magnesium from its oxide. So the mixture remains black and there's no change in limewater

37 is A. Both can be used as fuels

39 is D. Just add the products' molecular formula. CH4 and 2 molecules of C2H4 will give C5H12

okk no idea abt the 37th one
but the rest 2
q25.) i think its A...because Magnesium oxide cannot be reduced


q38.) ans - "D"  --  C5H12 ==> C2H4 + C2H4 + CH4

its written 2 molecules of ethene so wont it be "D"
