MARKING SCHEME
1. Barium carbonate reacts with dilute sulphuric (VI) acid to form the insoluble Barium
sulphate (BaSO4) which covers the reactant Barium carbonate preventing any contact
between the acid and the carbonate salt. 1
Hence, the reaction is slow and stops after a very short time.
BaCO3(s) + H2SO4(aq) BaSO4(s) + CO2(g) + H2O)(l)
Insoluble
2. The dye is oxidized to a new product with chlorine (1mk) but oxygen is removed to form an
unstable product which gradually gets re-oxidized by atmospheric oxygen on exposure for
sometime to air (1mk) in the case of Sulphur (IV) oxide.
