SECTION C

1.a) Malaysia exports raw rubber sheets and rubber latex Rubber latex is tapped and
collected from plantation throughout the country.
Suggest and explain:
i) how rubber sheets are produced
ii) rubber latex is prevented from coagulating
[4 marks]
b) The main use of natural rubber is to manufacture car tyres. However, it is found that
natural rubber is soft and not resistant to heat which is sticky when heated. Hence, it is
not suitable for making car tyres.
Explain how the quality of natural rubber can be improved so that it can be used to
make car tyres. Your answer should include the following:
• Identifying the problem
• Clarification of the problem
• Suggest method to solve the problem
• Explain how the method can solve the problem

3. a) P: mesocarp
Q: kernel

b) mesocarp // P

c) Unsaturated fat

d) Contain vitamin A // E // no cholesterol

4. a) (i) ethanoic acid

(ii) sulphur

b) Vulcanized rubber is : more elastic than natural rubber//

harder//
stronger//
more resistant to heat

c)

SECTION C
1.a) (i) Add ethanoic acid into the latex
- Hydrogen ions in acid neutralize negative charge on protein membrane, causes
the rubber particles to collide, protein membrane break and rubber molecules released
and combined.
(ii) Add ammonia solution into the latex
- Negatively charges hydroxyl ion in ammonia neutralize the hydrogen ion in latex
produced by action of bacteria.

b) * Problem:
- not suitable for making tyres
* Clarification of the problem:
- Natural rubber is soft and not resistant to heat.
* Method to solve the problem:
- through the process of vulcanization
* Explanation:
- natural rubber is heated with sulphur.
- The sulphur atoms will form cross-linkage between the rubber molecules.
- This make vulcanized rubber harder and more resistant to heat.
