Which gas diffuses faster and why?

gas that

diffuses faster reason

A

ethene

Ethene molecules are heavier and so move faster.

B

ethene

Ethene molecules have a double bond which makes them more reactive.

C methane Methane molecules are lighter and so move faster.

D

methane

Methane molecules are smaller so they can get out of the small hole more easily.

1 You are going to investigate the reaction between aqueous sodium carbonate and two different solutions of dilute hydrochloric acid labelled A and B.

Read all the instructions carefully before starting the experiments.

Instructions You are going to carry out three experiments.

(a) Experiment 1

Use a measuring cylinder to pour 25 cm3 of aqueous sodium carbonate into a conical flask. Add ten drops of thymolphthalein indicator to the conical flask. Fill the burette provided up to the 0.0 cm3 mark with solution A of dilute hydrochloric acid.

Add solution A from the burette while swirling the flask, until the solution just changes colour. Record the burette readings in the table below.

Experiment 2

Empty the conical flask and rinse it with distilled water. Repeat Experiment 1 using methyl orange indicator instead of thymolphthalein. Record the burette readings in the table below and complete the table.

1 You are going to investigate 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.

Read all the instructions carefully before starting the experiment.

Instructions

(a) Fill the burette up to the 40.0 cm3 mark with sodium thiosulfate solution. Use the large measuring cylinder to pour 100 cm3 of distilled water into the conical flask. Use the small measuring cylinder to add 6 cm3 of sulfuric acid, 1 cm3 of starch solution and

4 cm3 of aqueous potassium iodide to the flask. Add 1.0 cm3 of sodium thiosulfate solution from the burette to the mixture in the flask and swirl

to mix.

Several measurements will be taken during this experiment. Once the timer has been started leave it running until the experiment is complete.

Use the small measuring cylinder to start the reaction by adding 3 cm3 of hydrogen peroxide solution to the flask. Immediately start your timer and swirl the mixture.

Note the time taken for a blue colour to appear and record the time in the table.

Add a further 0.5 cm3 of sodium thiosulfate solution to the mixture in the conical flask and swirl until the blue colour disappears.

Note the time when the blue colour reappears and record the time in the table below.

Continue the experiment adding a further 0.5 cm3 of sodium thiosulfate solution at a time until a total of 4.0 cm3 of sodium thiosulfate solution has been added, noting the times for the blue colour to appear after each addition and recording the times in the table.

Complete the table.

1 You are going to investigate what happens when dilute hydrochloric acid and copper(II) sulfate solution react with different metals.

Read all the instructions carefully before starting the experiments.

Instructions You are going to carry out five experiments.

(a) Experiment 1

Use a measuring cylinder to pour 10 cm3 of dilute hydrochloric acid into a boiling tube. Put the boiling tube into a rack for support.

Measure the temperature of the hydrochloric acid and record it in the table below. Add 1 g of zinc to the boiling tube and stir the mixture with the thermometer. Measure and record the maximum temperature reached by the mixture. Pour the mixture away

and rinse the boiling tube.

Experiment 2

Repeat Experiment 1 using 1 g of iron instead of zinc. Record your results in the table.

Experiment 3

Repeat Experiment 1 using 1 g of magnesium instead of zinc. Record your results in the table. Complete the final column in the table.

2 A student investigated the reaction between aqueous sodium carbonate and two different solutions of dilute hydrochloric acid, A and B.

The reaction is:

Na2CO3(aq) + 2HCl (aq) → 2NaCl (aq) + H2O(l) + CO2(g)

Three experiments were carried out.

(a) Experiment 1

Using a measuring cylinder, 25 cm3 of aqueous sodium carbonate were poured into a conical flask.

Thymolphthalein indicator was added to the conical flask. A burette was filled up to the 0.0 cm3 mark with solution A of dilute hydrochloric acid. A was

added to the flask, until the solution just changed colour. Use the burette diagram to record the reading in the table.

2 A student investigated the rate of reaction between hydrogen peroxide and aqueouspotassium 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 what happens when dilute hydrochloric acid and copper(II) sulfate solution react with different metals.

Five experiments were carried out.

(a) Experiment 1

A measuring cylinder was used to pour 10 cm3 of dilute hydrochloric acid into a boiling tube. The temperature of the hydrochloric acid was measured. 1 g of zinc was added to the boiling tube and the mixture stirred with a thermometer. The maximum temperature reached by the mixture was measured.

Experiment 2

Experiment 1 was repeated using 1 g of iron instead of zinc.

Experiment 3

Experiment 1 was repeated using 1 g of magnesium instead of zinc.

Use the thermometer diagrams to record the results in the table. Complete the final column in the table.
