What are the four state symbols? [4] Solid (s), liquid (l), gas (g), aqueous solution (aq)
Describe how to perform a titration. [5] 1. Fill a burette with the acid of known concentration,
2. Accurately measure 25cm³ of the alkali solution using a pipette and transfer it to a conical flask.
3. Add a few drops of a suitable indicator to the alkali. eg phenolphthalein.
4. Slowly add the acid from the burette into the conical flask, swirling constantly. As soon as the indicator changes colour the solution has turned neutral so stop adding the acid.
5. Record the volume of acid added.
6. Repeat the process until you achieve concordant results. The mean of these results is used to calculate the average titre.
State the formula for percentage atom economy. [1]
State the formula for percentage yield. [1]
Describe how to make up a standard solution [7] 1. Weigh the sample bottle containing the solid on a balance.
2. Transfer solid to a beaker and reweigh the sample bottle.
3. Record the difference in mass.
4. Add distilled water and stir with a glass rod until the solid has dissolved.
5. Transfer to a volumetric flask with washings.
6. Makeup to the 250cm³ mark with distilled water.
7. Shake flask.
What is an ionic bond? [1] The strong electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions.
