GCSE Science
16th December 1984
- 1Chemical Changes
State the pH value of a neutral solution.
- 2Reactivity, Acids and Salts
Explain the difference between a strong acid and a concentrated acid.
- 3Electrolysis
Molten zinc chloride, ZnCl2, is electrolysed using inert electrodes. Write the half equation for the reaction at (a) the cathode, and (b) the anode.
- 4Energy Changes
Using the values in the previous question, calculate the overall energy change for the reaction.
- 5Exothermic and Endothermic Reactions
A student heats solid copper carbonate strongly in a test tube, and it breaks down into copper oxide and carbon dioxide. Heating must be continued throughout the reaction for it to keep going. State whether this thermal decomposition reaction is exothermic or endothermic, and explain your reasoning.
