RATE OF REACTION (Kedah 2012) 1.

Table 6 shows the result of an experiment to study the effect of temperature on the rate of reaction between 50cm3 1.0 moldm-3 hydrochloric acid solution, HCl and 50cm3 2.0 moldm-3 sodium thiosulphate solution, Na2S2O3.

(a) Balance the chemical equation below for the reaction that occurs in this experiment.

m = ___________________________ n = ___________________________ [2 marks] (b) Draw the set-up of apparatus used to measure the time taken for X mark to disappear from sight.

[2 marks] (c) Name the substance that is responsible for the X mark to disappear from sight. ________________________________________________________________________________ [1 mark] (d) Plot a graph of temperature against time taken for the X mark to disappear from sight. [4 marks] (e) Based on the graph in (d), state the relationship between temperature and time. ________________________________________________________________________________ [1 mark]

(Johor 2011) 2. An experiment is carried out to investigate a factor that influences the rate of reaction. The experiment is repeated five times at different temperatures. Table below shows the temperature and time taken for X mark to disappear from view when observed vertically from the top. Experiment 1 2 3 4 5 Temperature / oC 30.0 40.0 50.0 60.0 70.0 Time/s 55.5 33.0 23.0 17.0 13.0

(a) Compare the rate of reaction between Experiment 1 and Experiment 5. _____________________________________________________________________________ [1 mark] (b) Explain your answer in (a) using the collision theory. _____________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ [4 marks]

(c) Diagram 6.2 shows a conversation between Ummu and Qistina.

Referring to the above situation, plan a laboratory experiment to investigate the effect of temperature of sodium thiosulphate solution on the rate of reaction when reacts with dilute hydrochloric acid. Your planning must include the following items: (a) Problem statement (b) All the variables (c) Hypothesis (d) List of materials and apparatus (e) Procedure (f) Tabulation of data [17 marks]

[4 marks] (b) A group of students carried out two experiments to investigate the factor affecting the rate of reaction between zinc powder and hydrochloric acid, HCl. Diagram 8 shows the set-up of

apparatus used in the experiments.

(i) In the presence of substance X in experiment II, the higher volume of gas is released in the first two minutes compared to experiment I. State one substance that can be used as substance X. [1 mark] (ii) Calculate the average rate of reaction of in Experiment I and Experiment II in the first two minutes. [2 marks] (iii) Compare the rate of reaction between Experiment I and Experiment II. Explain your answer based on collision theory. [5 marks] (iv) Sketch a graph of volume of gas released against time for both sets of experiments for the first two minutes. [2 marks] (v) Write an ionic equation for the reaction between zinc powder and hydrochloric acid. [2 marks] (vi) Hydrochloric acid in experiment I is replaced with sulphuric acid with the same volume and concentration. Compare the rate of reaction and the maximum volume of hydrogen gas released between these two experiments. Explain your answer. [4 marks]
