2. A student investigated the reaction of aqueous potassium hydroxide with two different acids,
acid C and acid D.
Experiment 1
By using a measuring cylinder, 40 cm3 of aqueous potassium hydroxide was poured into a
conical flask and the initial temperature of the solution was measured.
10 cm3 of acid C was added to the potassium hydroxide in the flask. The temperature of the
mixture was measured.
Further 10 cm3 portions of acid C were added to the mixture in the flask, stirring with the
thermometer until a total volume of 60 cm3 of acid C had been added. The temperatures after
each 10 cm3 portion had been added were measured.
(a) Use the thermometer diagrams to record the temperatures in the table of results.

Experiment 2
The burette was emptied and rinsed with water. Experiment 1 was repeated using acid D.
(b) Use the thermometer diagrams to record the temperatures in the table of results.

(c) Plot the results for Experiments 1 and 2 on the grid and draw two smooth lines graphs.
Clearly label your graphs.
(d) From your graph, deduce the temperature of the mixture when 6 cm3 of acid reacted with
potassium hydroxide in Experiment 1.
Show clearly on the graph how you worked out your answer.

3. A mixture of two solids, C and D was analysed. Solid C was lead nitrate, which is water-
soluble. Solid D was insoluble.
Test tests on C and D, and some of the observations, are in the following table.
tests observations
Water was added to the mixture in a
boiling tube and shaken. The contents
of the tube were filtered.
tests on filtrate
tests on residue

4. Hydrogen peroxide solution decomposes to give water and oxygen gas.
Three different solids are catalysts for the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide solution.
A student is given hydrogen peroxide solution and a sample of each of the solid catalysts.
Plan an investigation to find out which of the three solids is the most effective catalyst for the
decomposition of hydrogen peroxide solution.
You have access to 3 types of solid catalysts, aqueous hydrogen peroxide and all normal
laboratory apparatus.
