  1. 1
    Electrolysis

    In the industrial extraction of aluminium, explain why the aluminium oxide is dissolved in molten cryolite rather than melted on its own.

  2. 2
    Energy Changes

    Using the values in the previous question, calculate the overall energy change for the reaction.

  3. 3
    Exothermic and Endothermic Reactions

    Explain, in terms of the reaction pathway, why adding a catalyst increases the rate of a reaction without changing the overall energy change of the reaction.

  4. 4
    Bond Energies, Cells and Fuel Cells

    State whether breaking a chemical bond requires energy or releases energy.

  5. 5
    Rate and Extent of Chemical Change

    Explain, using collision theory, why increasing the concentration of a reactant in solution increases the rate of a reaction.
