4.2 Enthalpy, Entropy and Free Energy

Entropy and predicting entropy changes

1 B [1]

All other reactions produce a gas which would increase entropy as gases are disordered. Reaction B only contains gases but the number of moles of gas decreases so entropy decreases.

2 C [1]

Reaction is exothermic and there is an increase in entropy.

4.3 RATES OF REACTION

4.3 Rates of Reaction

Rate equations and associated graphs1 B [1]

The units of the rate constant are mol–1 dm3 s–1 as it is second order overall.

2 C [1]

The order of reaction with respect to W is 2 so the graph of rate against [W] should be non-linear.

3 C

Doubling the concentration of L and M increasing the rate by a factor of 8 means one of them has to be second order and the other is first order.

pH = – log10

[H+] = – log10

(4.47 × 10–5) = 4.35 [4]

In this buffer calculation the solid sodium lactate added does not dilute the acid so the concentration of the acid is unchanged. The concentration, in mol dm–3, of the salt must be calculated and then used to calculate [H+].

18 (a) initial moles of acid (C6H

15.0 × 0.250

1000 = 3.75 × 10–3

moles of acid remaining = 8.75 ×10–3 – 3.75 × 10–3 = 5.00 × 10–3

pH = – log10

[H+] = – log10

(8.61 × 10–5) = 4.06 [5]

The pH of 4.06 is obtained using the rounded [H+] (8.61 × 10–3 mol dm–3) however using 8.613 × 10–5 mol dm–3 or the value in the calculator throughout gives 4.07 and both 4.06 and 4.07 would be accepted. The moles of the acid remaining and the moles of the salt may be used to calculate [H+]. Ideally you should convert these moles to concentration, in mol dm–3, by dividing by the total volume (50.0 cm3 here) and multiplying by 1000 but it gives the same value for [H+] but you must convert both of them but using the moles if faster. In 17(d) you had to calculate the concentration, in mol dm–3, of the sodium lactate as you were using the concentration of the acid in mol dm–3

(b) (i) moles of H+ = 5.00 × 0.0550

4.5 ACID-BASE EQUILIBRIA

Titration curves and salts21 Answer is A [1]

A salt of a strong acid and a weak base (A) will have an acidic pH. A salt of a strong acid and a strong base (C) will have a neutral pH. A salt of a weak acid and a strong base (D) will have an alkaline pH. A salt of a weak acid and a weak base (B) could be acidic, alkaline or neutral depending on the parent acid and base but it would not be as acidic as A or as alkaline as D, if the concentrations are the same.

22 Answer is D [1]

Ethanoic acid is the weaker weak acid (higher pKa so lower K

a). A weaker weak acid will have a higher

concentration of the undissociated acid so when the anion is added to water it reacts to a greater extent giving a higher pH (A– + H

2O HA + OH–). The sodium ion does not affect the pH but the ammonium ion

will cause some acidity in the solution counteracting the effect of the anion.

Once all the information is in the table add together the oxidation potential value (negative of the reduction electrode potential given) and the vanadium reduction electrode potential and if you get a positive value then it is feasible () and if it is negative then it is not feasible (×). Note that iron would reduce vanadium from +5 to +2 whereas both tin and sulfur dioxide would reduce vanadium from +5 to +3.
