2 A teacher investigated the rate of a reaction between two solutions, J and K, and sulfuric acid at
different temperatures.
(a) Experiment 1
A large measuring cylinder was used to pour 50 cm3 of distilled water and 40 cm3 of sulfuric acid
into a 250 cm3 conical flask.
A small measuring cylinder was used to add 2 cm3 of methyl orange and 5 cm3 of solution J to
the mixture in the conical flask. The temperature of the mixture was measured.
The reaction was started by adding 5 cm3 of solution K to the conical flask, immediately starting
the timer and swirling the mixture.
The time taken for the mixture to turn pale yellow was measured. The final temperature of the
mixture was measured.
Experiment 2
Experiment 1 was repeated but the mixture in the conical flask was heated to about 30 °C
before adding the solution K. The temperature of the mixture was measured.
5 cm3 of solution K was added to the conical flask. The timer was started and the mixture
swirled.
The time taken for the mixture to turn pale yellow was measured. The final temperature of the
mixture was measured.
Experiment 3
Experiment 1 was repeated but the mixture in the conical flask was heated to about 40 °C
before adding the solution K to the flask. The same measurements were taken.
Experiment 4
Experiment 1 was repeated but the mixture in the conical flask was heated to about 50 °C
before adding the solution K to the flask. The same measurements were taken.

4 The label on a bottle of orange drink stated ‘contains no artificial colours’. A scientist thought that
the orange colour in the drink was a mixture of two artificial colours:
Plan an investigation to show that the orange colour in the drink did not contain these two artificial
colours.
You are provided with samples of E110, E129 and the orange colouring from the drink. You are also

2 A student investigated the rate of reaction between hydrogen peroxide and aqueous
potassium iodide. When these chemicals react they form iodine. Sodium thiosulfate solution reacts
with iodine and can be used to show how fast the reaction proceeds.
(a) A burette was filled up to the 0.0 cm3 mark with sodium thiosulfate solution.
Using a large measuring cylinder, 100 cm3 of distilled water were poured into a conical flask.
Using a small measuring cylinder, 6 cm3 of sulfuric acid, 1 cm3 of starch solution and 4 cm3 of
aqueous potassium iodide were added to the flask.
0.5 cm3 of sodium thiosulfate solution was added from the burette to the mixture in the flask
and swirled to mix.
The reaction was then started by adding 3 cm3 of hydrogen peroxide solution to the mixture,
and the timer started.
The time taken for a blue colour to appear was noted.
A further 0.5 cm3 of sodium thiosulfate solution was added to the mixture in the conical flask,
swirled and the blue colour disappeared. The time when the blue colour reappeared was noted.
The experiment continued by adding further 0.5 cm3 portions of sodium thiosulfate solution
until a total of 3.0 cm3 of sodium thiosulfate solution had been added, noting the times at which
the blue colour reappeared.
Use the timer diagrams on page 4 to record the times in seconds in the table.

2 A student investigated the rate of reaction between magnesium ribbon and solutions of dilute
hydrochloric acid of different concentrations, solutions H, I, J and K. The dilute hydrochloric acid
was in excess in all experiments.
Experiment 1
●● A measuring cylinder was used to pour 30 cm3 of solution H into a beaker.
●● A 5.0 cm length of magnesium ribbon was then added to the beaker.
●● A timer was started immediately.
●● The time taken for all of the magnesium ribbon to react and to disappear completely was
measured.
Experiment 2
●● Experiment 1 was repeated but using solution I instead of solution H.
Experiment 3
●● Experiment 1 was repeated but using solution J instead of solution H.
Experiment 4
●● Experiment 1 was repeated but using solution K instead of solution H.

2 A student investigated the rate of reaction between solution L, solution M and hydrochloric acid.
When these chemicals react they form iodine. Sodium thiosulfate solution and starch solution were
used to show how fast the reaction proceeded.
Experiment 1
Experiment 2
●● measuring cylinder was used to add 8 cm3 of solution L and 2 cm3 of distilled water to the
A
conical flask.
●● 10 cm3 of dilute hydrochloric acid, 10 cm3 of sodium thiosulfate solution and 1 cm3 of
starch solution were then added to the conical flask.
●● The reaction was started by using a measuring cylinder to add 10 cm3 of solution M to the
conical flask. The timer was started immediately and the mixture was swirled.
●● The time taken for the mixture to turn blue-black was measured.
●● The conical flask was emptied and rinsed with distilled water.
Experiment 3
●● xperiment 2 was repeated but 6 cm3 of solution L and 4 cm3 of distilled water were added to
E
the conical flask before adding the other reagents.
Experiment 4
●● xperiment 2 was repeated but 5 cm3 of solution L and 5 cm3 of distilled water were added to
E
the conical flask before adding the other reagents.
Experiment 5
●● xperiment 2 was repeated but 3 cm3 of solution L and 7 cm3 of distilled water were added to
E
the conical flask before adding the other reagents.

3 Solid N and solid O were analysed. Solid N was ammonium sulfate. Tests were done on each solid.
tests on solid N
............................................................................................................................................... [1]
Solid N was dissolved in distilled water to form solution N. Solution N was divided into two portions
in two test‑tubes.
(b) Dilute nitric acid and aqueous barium nitrate were added to the first portion of solution N.
(c) Aqueous sodium hydroxide was added to the second portion of solution N. The mixture was
heated and the gas produced was tested.
