1 A student investigated the colours present in three hair dyes, P, Q and R, using chromatography. P, Q and R are
insoluble in water. The student suggested setting up the apparatus for the experiment as shown.

(a) Why is a lid necessary on top of the beaker?

................................................................................................................................................................................................ [1]

3 A student investigated the time taken to collect 40cm3 of hydrogen gas when magnesium reacts with dilute
sulphuric acid.
Five experiments were done using the apparatus shown.

Experiment 1
● Using a measuring cylinder, 8cm3 of dilute sulphuric acid was poured into the boiling tube.
● Using a second measuring cylinder, 12cm3 of distilled water was added to the acid in the boiling tube.
4
● The apparatus was set up as shown in the diagram, ensuring the inverted measuring cylinder was full of water.
● The bung was removed from the boiling tube.
● A coiled length of magnesium ribbon was added to the boiling tube, the bung was immediately replaced and a
timer started.
● The time taken for 40cm3 of gas to be collected was measured.
● The student felt the outside of the boiling tube.

(a) The student noticed that the boiling tube was warm.

What does this tell you about the type of reaction?

................................................................................................................................................................................................. [1]

Experiment 2
● The boiling tube was rinsed out with distilled water.
● Experiment 1 was repeated using 10cm3 of dilute sulphuric acid and 10cm3 of distilled water.

Experiment 3
● Experiment 2 was repeated using 12cm3 of dilute sulphuric acid and 8cm3 of distilled water.

Experiment 4
● Experiment 2 was repeated using 16cm3 of dilute sulphuric acid and 4cm3 of distilled water.

Experiment 5
● Experiment 2 was repeated using 20cm3 of dilute sulphuric acid and no distilled water.

(b) Use the information in the description of the experiments and the timer diagrams to complete the table.
Record the time in seconds.

(c) In which Experiment, 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5, was the rate of reaction greatest?

................................................................................................................................................................................................. [1]

(d) Why would measuring the volume of dilute sulphuric acid with a burette rather than a measuring cylinder be

an improvement?

.......................................................................................................................................................................................................

................................................................................................................................................................................................. [1]

(e) The magnesium starts to react with the dilute sulphuric acid as soon as it is added.

Why does this decrease the accuracy of the investigation?

4 Two substances, solid L and solid M, were analysed. Solid L was hydrated ammonium sulphate.
Tests were done on solid L and solid M.

tests on solid L
Complete the expected observations.
(a) Describe the appearance of solid L.

................................................................................................................................................................................................ [1]

Solid L was divided into two portions.

(b) The first portion of solid L was heated in a hard-glass test-tube.

Any gas produced was tested with cobalt(II) chloride paper.

observations ..............................................................................................................................................................................

............................................................................................................................................................................................... [2]

7
The second portion of solid L was added to distilled water. The mixture was shaken to dissolve solid L and form

solution L. The solution of L was divided into two equal portions in two test-tubes.

(c) An excess of aqueous sodium hydroxide was added to the first portion of solution L.

The mixture was heated and the gas produced was tested.

observations .............................................................................................................................................................................

................................................................................................................................................................................................ [2]

(d) Dilute nitric acid and aqueous barium nitrate were added to the second portion of solution L.

6 A black dye can be obtained from some plant roots.

Plan an investigation to determine how many different coloured substances are contained in a black dye obtained
from plant roots.
You must include how the results you obtain will tell you how many different coloured substances are contained
in the black dye.
You have access to plant roots and all normal laboratory apparatus.
