23rd June 1998
- 1Energy Changes
State whether the combustion of methane is exothermic or endothermic.
- 2Exothermic 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.
- 3Bond Energies, Cells and Fuel Cells
State the only substance produced when a hydrogen fuel cell reacts pure hydrogen with pure oxygen.
- 4Rate and Extent of Chemical Change
A reaction between calcium carbonate and hydrochloric acid produces 72 cm3 of carbon dioxide gas in 30 seconds. Calculate the mean rate of reaction.
- 5Rates of Reaction
Explain why increasing temperature increases the rate of a reaction, referring to both the frequency and the energy of collisions.
