Teacher Examiner Remark

Mark CheckPlanning exercise

3 Preparation of sodium peroxide, Na2O2.

Sodium peroxide may be prepared by passing dry oxygen over sodium in a “boat” made of aluminium foil which is placed in a combustion tube. The tube is heated until the sodium melts. It is further heated until the sodium burns.

At this stage the heating can be turned down.

After reaction a stream of dry air is passed through the combustion tube. The resulting sodium peroxide is placed in a stoppered bottle and weighed.

The sodium peroxide is obtained as a white solid with a slightly yellow appearance. It reacts readily with water to produce hydrogen peroxide or oxygen depending on the temperature at which the reaction is carried out.

You are required to prepare 1.3 g of sodium peroxide based on the mass of sodium used.

(a) Write an equation, including state symbols, for the reaction of sodium with oxygen to produce sodium peroxide.

_____________________________________________________ [2]

(b) Calculate the mass of sodium needed assuming an 80% yield.

(c) Explain why it is essential that the oxygen, which is passed over the sodium, is dry.

Teacher Examiner Remark

Mark Check (d) Draw a labelled diagram of the apparatus used to prepare

sodium peroxide, showing how the oxygen gas may be dried.

[4]

(e) The sodium peroxide may be used to prepare hydrogen peroxide by reacting it with acids at low temperatures. Adding phosphoric (V) acid to sodium peroxide produces disodium hydrogenphosphate, Na2HPO4, which crystallises with twelve molecules of water.

(i) Write an equation for the reaction of phosphoric (V) acid with sodium peroxide.

_________________________________________________ [2]

(ii) Suggest why this method is better than using hydrochloric acid producing sodium chloride, which crystallises without molecules of water, to prepare a concentrated solution of hydrogen peroxide.

____________________________________________________

_________________________________________________ [2]

(f) Sodium peroxide reacts with water at higher temperatures to form sodium hydroxide and oxygen. Describe how you would use GLC to show that oxygen was given off.

1. Please do all marking in red ink.

2. All scripts should be checked for mathematical errors. Please adopt a system of one tick () equals 1 mark, e.g. if you have awarded 4 marks for part of a question then 4 ticks () should be on this candidate’s answer.

3. The total mark for each question should be recorded in a circle placed opposite the question number in the teacher mark column.

4. As candidates have access to scripts please do not write any inappropriate comments on their scripts.

General points

• All calculations are marked according to the number of errors made.

• Errors can be carried through. If the wrong calculation is carried out then the incorrect answer can be carried through. One mistake at the start of a question does not always mean that all marks are lost.

• Listing is when more than one answer is given for a question that only requires one answer, e.g. the precipitate from a chloride with silver nitrate is a white solid; if the candidate states a white or a cream solid, one answer is correct and one answer is wrong. Hence they cancel out.

• Although names might be in the mark scheme it is generally accepted that formulae can replace them. Formulae and names are often interchangeable in chemistry.

• The marking of colours is defined in the ‘CCEA GCE Chemistry Acceptable Colours’ document.

MARKING GUIDELINES

Interpretation of the Mark Scheme

• Carry error through This is where mistakes/wrong answers are penalised when made, but if carried

into further steps of the question, then no further penalty is applied. This pertains to calculations and observational/deduction exercises. Please annotate candidates’ answers by writing the letters c.e.t. on the appropriate place in the candidates’ answers.

• Oblique/forward slash This indicates an acceptable alternative answer(s).

• Brackets Where an answer is given in the mark scheme and is followed by a word/words in

brackets, this indicates that the information within the brackets is non-essential for awarding the mark(s).

(b) Table [3] The Table should be drawn as a table. It should be labelled with the following:

initial (burette) reading, final (burette) reading and the titre. It is not necessary to use exactly these words but there should be appropriate columns and rows [1]. Units, i.e. cm3, should be stated [1].

The rough titration value should not be the same as the accurate values [1].

Use of decimal places [2] All burette readings should be to at least one decimal place – each mistake is

penalised by one mark.

(However initial burette readings of 0 are penalised once only.)

If used, the second decimal place position should be 0 or 5 only – other values will be penalised by 1 mark for each.

Average titre [2] Accurate titrations only should be used. The use of a rough value is [–1]. The average value can be calculated to two decimal places or more, e.g.

25.15 and 25.20 average to 25.175.

If three accurate titres are recorded, then the average titre must be calculated using all three accurate titres.

Any error is [–1]. This might be an incorrect calculation or the omission of units. If the average titre is included in the table then the units indicated on the table apply.

3 Planning exercise

Preparation of urea

Urea, (NH2)2CO, was first synthesised by Friedrich Wöhler in 1828. Today some seven million tons of urea are produced per year mainly for use as a fertiliser.

Urea can be prepared in the laboratory by reacting lead(II) cyanate, Pb(CNO)2, with ammonia and water to produce lead(II) hydroxide and ammonium cyanate, NH4CNO. The ammonium cyanate then rearranges when heated to form urea, which has a melting point of 133 °C.

AVAILABLEMARKS

Annotation

1. Please do all marking in red ink.

2. All scripts should be checked for mathematical errors. Please adopt a system of one tick () equals 1 mark, e.g. if you have awarded 4 marks for part of a question then 4 ticks () should be on this candidate’s answer.

3. The total mark for each question should be recorded in a circle placed opposite the question number in the teacher mark column.

4. As candidates have access to scripts please do not write any inappropriate comments on their scripts.

General points

• All calculations are marked according to the number of errors made.

• Errors can be carried through. If the wrong calculation is carried out then the incorrect answer can be carried through. One mistake at the start of a question does not always mean that all marks are lost.

• Any number of decimal places may be used provided the ‘rounding’ is correct.

• Listing is when more than one answer is given for a question that only requires one answer, e.g. the precipitate from a chloride with silver nitrate is a white solid; if the candidate states a white or a cream solid, one answer is correct and one answer is wrong. Hence they cancel out.

• Although names might be in the mark scheme it is generally accepted that formulae can replace them. Formulae and names are often interchangeable in chemistry.

• The marking of colours is defined in the ‘CCEA GCE Chemistry Acceptable Colours’ document.

MARKING GUIDELINES

Interpretation of the Mark Scheme

• Carry error through This is where mistakes/wrong answers are penalised when made, but if carried

into further steps of the question, then no further penalty is applied. This pertains to calculations and observational/deduction exercises. Please annotate candidates’ answers by writing the letters c.e.t. on the appropriate place in the candidates’ answers.

• Oblique/forward slash This indicates an acceptable alternative answer(s).

• Brackets Where an answer is given in the mark scheme and is followed by a word/words in

brackets, this indicates that the information within the brackets is non-essential for awarding the mark(s).

(b) Table [3] The Table should be drawn as a table. It should be labelled with the following:

initial burette reading, final burette reading and the titre. It is not necessary to use exactly these words but there should be appropriate columns and rows.

The recorded readings should be checked for mathematical accuracy [1]. The rough titration value should be greater than the accurate values (no more

than 2 cm3) [1]. Units, i.e. cm3, should be stated [1]. Use of decimal places [2] All burette readings should be to at least one decimal place – each mistake is

penalised by one mark. (However initial burette readings of 0 are penalised once only.)

If used, the second decimal place position should be 0 or 5 only – other values will be penalised by 1 mark for each.

Average titre [2] Accurate titrations only should be used. The use of a rough value is [–1]. The average value can be calculated to two decimal places or more, e.g. 25.15 and 25.20 average to 25.175. If three accurate titres are recorded, then the average titre must be calculated

using all three accurate titres.

Any error is [–1]. This might be an incorrect calculation or the omission of units. If the average titre is included in the table then the units indicated on the table apply.

Titration consistency [1] This is the difference within the accurate titrations. If three accurate values are

given then the difference between highest and lowest is used.

General:

An incorrect deduction can be carried through to naming the salt. A deduction based on an incorrect observation can be credited on the basis of cet.

Wrong placing of answers

In the observation/deduction question candidates may write their answers in the wrong column. This is not the penalised, e.g. a deduction written in the observation column may be credited, if correct.

Further observations

Candidates may record observations not recorded in the mark scheme, but credit should only be given to those observations recorded in the mark scheme.

Question 2 (a)

Test 1 Crystals is acceptable but not powder. Dark green is acceptable. “Transition metal ion/compound” is OK. “Transition metal” is wrong. At this point the word ‘possibly’ or similar should be used if stating possible ions. At least two out of Cr3+, Fe2+, Ni2+ must be mentioned. Ions must either be given their correct symbol and charge or be referred to as an ion (e.g. “Cr3+” or “chromium ions” are acceptable; “Cr” or “chromium” are not acceptable).

Test 2 Again at least two ions should be mentioned. Candidates can score here for the same deduction made in Test 1. No mark is awarded for deducing that X is soluble as it is referred to as a “solution” in later tests.

Test 3 When allowed to stand a white precipitate will settle at the bottom of the test tube. No other colour is acceptable. “Chloride” or “chloride ion” or “CI–” are acceptable. “Chlorine” or “CI” are not acceptable.

Test 4(a) The list of acceptable colours states that the precipitate formed, Cr(OH)3,is green-blue. However the precipitate could legitimately be observed as being pale blue, or grey-blue and these are also acceptable.

Test 5 The most important observation is the formation of the colourless liquid on the walls of the boiling tube indicating the presence of water of crystallisation, but since the crystals do change colour then this is also accepted. The actual colour is not important. If the only observation is the colour change of the crystals the candidate cannot score a mark for deduction.

Name of X The oxidation state (III) is not necessary but if an incorrect oxidation state is given then a mark is lost.

Question 2 (b)

Test 1(b) The observation could also be described as white fumes.

AVAILABLE MARKS

8191.01 F

Annotation

1. Please do all marking in red ink.

2. All scripts should be checked for mathematical errors. Please adopt a system of one tick () equals 1 mark, e.g. if you have awarded 4 marks for part of a question then 4 ticks () should be on this candidate’s answer.

3. The total mark for each question should be recorded in a circle placed opposite the question number in the teacher mark column.

4. As candidates have access to scripts please do not write any inappropriate comments on their scripts.

General points

• All calculations are marked according to the number of errors made.

• Errors can be carried through. If the wrong calculation is carried out then the incorrect answer can be carried through. One mistake at the start of a question does not always mean that all marks are lost.

• Any number of decimal places may be used provided the ‘rounding’ is correct.

• Listing is when more than one answer is given for a question that only requires one answer, e.g. the precipitate from a chloride with silver nitrate is a white solid; if the candidate states a white or a cream solid, one answer is correct and one answer is wrong. Hence they cancel out.

• Although names might be in the mark scheme it is generally accepted that formulae can replace them. Formulae and names are often interchangeable in chemistry.

• The marking of colours is defined in the ‘CCEA GCE Chemistry Acceptable Colours’ document.

MARKING GUIDELINES

Interpretation of the Mark Scheme

• Carry error through This is where mistakes/wrong answers are penalised when made, but if carried into further steps of the question, then no further penalty is applied. This pertains to calculations and observational/deduction exercises. Please annotate candidates’ answers by writing the letters c.e.t. on the appropriate place in the candidates’ answers.

• Oblique/forward slash This indicates an acceptable alternative answer(s).

• Brackets Where an answer is given in the mark scheme and is followed by a word/words in brackets, this indicates that the information within the brackets is non-essential for awarding the mark(s).

To a maximum of [6] [6]

(b) Table [3] The Table should be drawn as a table. It should be labelled with the following: initial burette reading, final burette reading and the titre. It is not necessary to use exactly these words but there should be appropriate columns and rows. The recorded readings should be checked for mathematical accuracy. [1].

The rough titration value should be greater than the accurate values (no more than 2 cm3) [1].

Units, i.e. cm3, should be stated [1].

Use of decimal places [2] All burette readings should be to at least one decimal place – each mistake is penalised by one mark. (However initial burette readings of 0 are penalised once only.)

If used, the second decimal place position should be 0 or 5 only – other values will be penalised by 1 mark for each.

Average titre [2] Accurate titrations only should be used. The use of a rough value is [–1]. The average value can be calculated to two decimal places or more, e.g. 25.15 and 25.20 average to 25.175. If three accurate titres are recorded, then the average titre must be calculated using all three accurate titres.

Any error is [–1]. This might be an incorrect calculation or the omission of units. If the average titre is included in the table then the units indicated on the table apply.

Titration consistency [1] This is the difference within the accurate titrations. If three accurate values are given then the difference between highest and lowest is used.

General:

An incorrect deduction can be carried through to naming the salt. A deduction based on an incorrect observation can be credited on the basis of c.e.t.

Wrong placing of answers

In the observation/deduction question candidates may write their answers in the wrong column. This is not penalised, e.g. a deduction written in the observation column may be credited, if correct.

Further observations

Candidates may record observations not recorded in the mark scheme, but credit should only be given to those observations recorded in the mark scheme.

Question 2 (a)

Test 1 Crystals is acceptable but not powder. “Transition metal ion/compound” is OK. “Transition metal” is wrong. At this point the word ‘possibly’ or similar should be used if stating possible ions. Both Mn2+ and Co2+ are pink but since Mn2+ is a much paler shade of pink it would be acceptable at this point to suggest that Mn2+ is possibly present without mention of Co2+. Ions must either be given their correct symbol and charge or be referred to as an ion (e.g. “Mn2+” or “manganese ions” are acceptable; “Mn” or “manganese” are not acceptable).

Test 2 The solution is an extremely pale pink colour so “colourless” is also acceptable.Candidates can score here for the same deduction made in Test 1. No mark is awarded for deducing that R is soluble as it is referred to as a “solution” in later tests.

Test 3 When allowed to stand a white precipitate will settle at the bottom of the test tube. No other colour is acceptable. “Chloride” or “chloride ion” or “Cl–” are acceptable. “Chlorine” or “CI” are not acceptable.

Test 4(a) The list of acceptable colours states that the precipitate formed, Mn(OH)2,is white. However, since it darkens so quickly, the precipitate could legitimately be observed as being cream or beige and these are also acceptable. The list of acceptable colours states that the precipitate turns brown/black on standing but it is acceptable to observe that the precipitate “darkens”.

Test 5 The most important observation is the formation of the colourless liquid on the walls of the boiling tube indicating the presence of water of crystallisation, but since the crystals do change colour then this is also accepted. The actual colour is not important. If the only observation is the colour change of the crystals the candidate cannot score a mark for deduction.

Name of R The oxidation state (II) is not necessary but if an incorrect oxidation state is given then a mark is lost.

Question 2 (b)

Test 1(b) The observation could also be described as white fumes.

Advice for centres

● All chemicals used should be at least laboratory reagent specification and labelled with appropriate safety symbols, e.g. irritant.

● For centres running multiple sessions – candidates for the later session should be supplied with clean, dry glassware. If it is not feasible then glassware from the first session should be thoroughly washed, rinsed with deionised water and allowed to drain.

● Ensure all chemicals are in date otherwise expected observations may not be seen.

INSTRUCTIONS TO THE SUPERVISOR OF THE PRACTICAL EXAMINATION

General

1. The instructions contained in this document are for the use of the Supervisor and are strictly confidential. Under no circumstances may information concerning apparatus or materials be given before the examination to a candidate or other unauthorised person.

2. In a centre with a large number of candidates it may be necessary for two or more examination sessions to be organised. It is the responsibility of the schools to ensure

that there should be no contact between candidates taking each session.

3. A suitable laboratory must be reserved for the examination and kept locked throughout the period of preparation. Unauthorised persons not involved in the preparation for the examination must not be allowed to enter. Candidates must not be admitted until the specified time for commencement of the examination.

4. The Supervisor must ensure that the solutions provided for the candidates are of the nature and concentrations specified in the Apparatus and Materials List.

5. The Supervisor is to be granted access to the Teacher’s Copy of the Question Paper, showing parts of questions 1 and 2 only, on Monday 12 May 2014. The Supervisor is asked to check, at the earliest opportunity, that the experiments and tests in the question paper may be completed satisfactorily using the apparatus, materials and solutions that have been assembled. This question paper must then be returned to safe custody at the earliest possible moment after the Supervisor has ensured that all is in order. No access to the question paper should be allowed before 12 May 2014.

6. In the case of centres who have candidates entered for both practical examinations, the Supervisor must return all unused scripts of Practical Examination 1 to the Examinations Officer immediately on completion of the examination. The contents of

this examination must be kept confidential until the completion of Practical Examination 2.

7. Pipettes and burettes should be checked before the examination, and there should be an adequate supply of spare apparatus in case of breakages. The Apparatus and Materials List should be regarded as a minimum and there should be no objection to candidates being supplied with more than the minimum amount of apparatus and materials.

8. Candidates may not use text books and laboratory notes for reference during the examination, and must be informed of this beforehand.

8812.03 [Turn over

9. Clear instructions must be given by the Supervisor to all candidates at the beginning of the examination concerning appropriate safety procedures and precautions. Supervisors are also advised to remind candidates that all substances in the examination must be treated with caution. Only those tests specified in the question paper should be attempted. Candidates must not attempt any additional confirmatory tests. Anything

spilled on the skin should be washed off immediately with plenty of water. The use of appropriate eye protection is essential.

10. Supervisors are reminded that they may not assist candidates during the examination. However, if in the opinion of the Supervisor, a candidate is about to do something which may endanger him/herself or others, the Supervisor should intervene. A full written report must be sent to CCEA at once.

11. Upon request, a candidate may be given additional quantities of materials (answer paper, reagents and unknowns) without penalty. No notification need be sent to CCEA.

12. The examination room must be cleared of candidates immediately after the examination.

13. No materials will be supplied by CCEA.

Annotation

1. Please do all marking in red ink.

2. All scripts should be checked for mathematical errors. Please adopt a system of one tick () equals 1 mark, e.g. if you have awarded 4 marks for part of a question then 4 ticks () should be on this candidate’s answer.

3. The total mark for each question should be recorded in a circle placed opposite the question number in the teacher mark column.

4. As candidates have access to scripts please do not write any inappropriate comments on their scripts.

General points

• All calculations are marked according to the number of errors made.

• Errors can be carried through. If the wrong calculation is carried out then the incorrect answer can be carried through. One mistake at the start of a question does not always mean that all marks are lost.

• Any number of decimal places may be used provided the ‘rounding’ is correct.

• Listing is when more than one answer is given for a question that only requires one answer, e.g. the precipitate from a chloride with silver nitrate is a white solid; if the candidate states a white or a cream solid, one answer is correct and one answer is wrong. Hence they cancel out.

• Although names might be in the mark scheme it is generally accepted that formulae can replace them. Formulae and names are often interchangeable in chemistry.

• The marking of colours is defined in the ‘CCEA GCE Chemistry Acceptable Colours’ document.

MARKING GUIDELINES

Interpretation of the Mark Scheme

• Carry error through This is where mistakes/wrong answers are penalised when made, but if carried

into further steps of the question, then no further penalty is applied. This pertains to calculations and observational/deduction exercises. Please annotate candidates’ answers by writing the letters c.e.t. on the appropriate place in the candidates’ answers.

• Oblique/forward slash This indicates an acceptable alternative answer(s).

• Brackets Where an answer is given in the mark scheme and is followed by a word/words in

brackets, this indicates that the information within the brackets is non-essential for awarding the mark(s).

INSTRUCTIONS TO THE SUPERVISOR OF THE PRACTICAL EXAMINATION

General

1. The instructions contained in this document are for the use of the Supervisor and are strictly confidential. Under no circumstances may information concerning apparatus or materials be given before the examination to a candidate or other unauthorised person.

2. In a centre with a large number of candidates it may be necessary for two or more examination sessions to be organised. It is the responsibility of the schools to ensure

that there should be no contact between candidates taking each session.

3. A suitable laboratory must be reserved for the examination and kept locked throughout the period of preparation. Unauthorised persons not involved in the preparation for the examination must not be allowed to enter. Candidates must not be admitted until the specified time for commencement of the examination.

4. The Supervisor must ensure that the solutions provided for the candidates are of the nature and concentrations specified in the Apparatus and Materials List.

5. The Supervisor is to be granted access to the Teacher’s Copy of the Question Paper, showing parts of questions 1 and 2 only, on Monday 12 May 2014. The Supervisor is asked to check, at the earliest opportunity, that the experiments and tests in the question paper may be completed satisfactorily using the apparatus, materials and solutions that have been assembled. This question paper must then be returned to safe custody at the earliest possible moment after the Supervisor has ensured that all is in order. No access to the question paper should be allowed before 12 May 2014.

6. In the case of centres who have candidates entered for both practical examinations, the Supervisor must return all unused scripts of Practical Examination 1 to the Examinations Officer immediately on completion of the examination. The contents of

this examination must be kept confidential until the completion of Practical Examination 2.

7. Pipettes and burettes should be checked before the examination, and there should be an adequate supply of spare apparatus in case of breakages. The Apparatus and Materials List should be regarded as a minimum and there should be no objection to candidates being supplied with more than the minimum amount of apparatus and materials.

8. Candidates may not use text books and laboratory notes for reference during the examination, and must be informed of this beforehand.

8812.03 [Turn over

9. Clear instructions must be given by the Supervisor to all candidates at the beginning of the examination concerning appropriate safety procedures and precautions. Supervisors are also advised to remind candidates that all substances in the examination must be treated with caution. Only those tests specified in the question paper should be attempted. Candidates must not attempt any additional confirmatory tests. Anything

spilled on the skin should be washed off immediately with plenty of water. The use of appropriate eye protection is essential.

10. Supervisors are reminded that they may not assist candidates during the examination. However, if in the opinion of the Supervisor, a candidate is about to do something which may endanger him/herself or others, the Supervisor should intervene. A full written report must be sent to CCEA at once.

11. Upon request, a candidate may be given additional quantities of materials (answer paper, reagents and unknowns) without penalty. No notification need be sent to CCEA.

12. The examination room must be cleared of candidates immediately after the examination.

13. No materials will be supplied by CCEA.

AVAILABLEMARKS

Annotation

1. Please do all marking in red ink.

2. All scripts should be checked for mathematical errors. Please adopt a system of one tick () equals 1 mark, e.g. if you have awarded 4 marks for part of a question then 4 ticks () should be on this candidate’s answer.

3. The total mark for each question should be recorded in a circle placed opposite the question number in the teacher mark column.

4. As candidates have access to scripts please do not write any inappropriate comments on their scripts.

General points

• All calculations are marked according to the number of errors made.

• Errors can be carried through. If the wrong calculation is carried out then the incorrect answer can be carried through. One mistake at the start of a question does not always mean that all marks are lost.

• Any number of decimal places may be used provided the ‘rounding’ is correct.

• Listing is when more than one answer is given for a question that only requires one answer, e.g. the precipitate from a chloride with silver nitrate is a white solid; if the candidate states a white or a cream solid, one answer is correct and one answer is wrong. Hence they cancel out.

• Although names might be in the mark scheme it is generally accepted that formulae can replace them. Formulae and names are often interchangeable in chemistry.

• The marking of colours is defined in the ‘CCEA GCE Chemistry Acceptable Colours’ document.

MARKING GUIDELINES

Interpretation of the Mark Scheme

• Carry error through This is where mistakes/wrong answers are penalised when made, but if carried

into further steps of the question, then no further penalty is applied. This pertains to calculations and observational/deduction exercises. Please annotate candidates’ answers by writing the letters c.e.t. on the appropriate place in the candidates’ answers.

• Oblique/forward slash This indicates an acceptable alternative answer(s).

• Brackets Where an answer is given in the mark scheme and is followed by a word/words in

brackets, this indicates that the information within the brackets is non-essential for awarding the mark(s).

Significant figures [2] All accurate titration readings recorded to one decimal place (including initial burette reading at 0.0 if used). Accept, however, 0.00 and 0.05 but penalise by [–1] if other readings are given to two or more decimal places. The use of 0 is penalised by [–1] if used (only penalise once).

The average value can be calculated to two decimal places or more, e.g. 25.17 and 25.18 average to 25.175.

If three accurate titres are recorded, then the average titre must be calculated using all three accurate titres.

Any error is [–1]. This might be an incorrect calculation or the omission of units. If the average titre is included in the table then the units indicated on the table apply.

INSTRUCTIONS TO THE SUPERVISOR OF THE PRACTICAL EXAMINATION

General

1. The instructions contained in this document are for the use of the Supervisor and are strictly confidential. Under no circumstances may information concerning apparatus or materials be given before the examination to a candidate or other unauthorised person.

2. In a centre with a large number of candidates it may be necessary for two or more examination sessions to be organised. It is the responsibility of the schools to ensure

that there should be no contact between candidates taking each session.

3. A suitable laboratory must be reserved for the examination and kept locked throughout the period of preparation. Unauthorised persons not involved in the preparation for the examination must not be allowed to enter. Candidates must not be admitted until the specified time for commencement of the examination.

4. The Supervisor must ensure that the solutions provided for the candidates are of the nature and concentrations specified in the Apparatus and Materials List.

5. The Supervisor is to be granted access to the Teacher’s Copy of Practical Booklet A on Wednesday 29 April 2015. The Supervisor is asked to check, at the earliest

opportunity, that the experiments and tests in the question paper may be completed satisfactorily using the apparatus, materials and solutions that have been assembled. This question paper must then be returned to safe custody at the earliest possible moment after the Supervisor has ensured that all is in order. No access to the question paper should be allowed before 29 April 2015.

6. Centres may need to carry out multiple sessions to accommodate all their candidates sitting Practical Booklet A in a laboratory. Supervision must take place from 30 minutes after the scheduled starting time of the examination, as set out in the timetable, until the time when the candidate(s) begin(s) their examination(s). This is in order to ensure that there is no contact with other candidates. The centre must appoint a member of staff from the centre to supervise the candidate at all times while he/she is on the premises.

7. Pipettes and burettes should be checked before the examination, and there should be an adequate supply of spare apparatus in case of breakages. The Apparatus and Materials List should be regarded as a minimum and there should be no objection to candidates being supplied with more than the minimum amount of apparatus and materials.

8. Candidates may not use text books and laboratory notes for reference during the examination, and must be informed of this beforehand.

AVAILABLEMARKS

Annotation

1. Please do all marking in red ink.

2. All scripts should be checked for mathematical errors. Please adopt a system of one tick () equals 1 mark, e.g. if you have awarded 4 marks for part of a question then 4 ticks () should be on this candidate’s answer.

3. The total mark for each question should be recorded in a circle placed opposite the question number in the teacher mark column.

4. As candidates have access to scripts please do not write any inappropriate comments on their scripts.

General points

• All calculations are marked according to the number of errors made.

• Errors can be carried through. If the wrong calculation is carried out then the incorrect answer can be carried through. One mistake at the start of a question does not always mean that all marks are lost.

• Any number of decimal places may be used provided the ‘rounding’ is correct.

• Listing is when more than one answer is given for a question that only requires one answer, e.g. the precipitate from a chloride with silver nitrate is a white solid; if the candidate states a white or a cream solid, one answer is correct and one answer is wrong. Hence they cancel out.

• Although names might be in the mark scheme it is generally accepted that formulae can replace them. Formulae and names are often interchangeable in chemistry.

• The marking of colours is defined in the ‘CCEA GCE Chemistry Acceptable Colours’ document.

MARKING GUIDELINES

Interpretation of the Mark Scheme

• Carry error through This is where mistakes/wrong answers are penalised when made, but if carried

into further steps of the question, then no further penalty is applied. This pertains to calculations and observational/deduction exercises. Please annotate candidates’ answers by writing the letters c.e.t. on the appropriate place in the candidates’ answers.

• Oblique/forward slash This indicates an acceptable alternative answer(s).

• Brackets Where an answer is given in the mark scheme and is followed by a word/words in

brackets, this indicates that the information within the brackets is non-essential for awarding the mark(s).

Titration Exercise

1 Table [3]

The Table should be drawn as a boxed table. It should be labelled with the following:

initial burette reading, final burette reading and the titre. It is not necessary to use exactly these words but there should be appropriate columns and rows. The recorded readings should be checked for mathematical accuracy [1].

The rough titration value should be greater than the accurate values (no more than 2 cm3) [1]. If rough less than accurate [–1].

Units, i.e. cm3, should be stated in each column/row [1].

Use of decimal places [2] All burette readings should be to at least one decimal place – each mistake is penalised by one mark. (However initial burette readings of 0 are penalised once only.) If used, the second decimal place position should be 0 or 5 only – other values will be penalised by 1 mark for each.

Average titre [2] Accurate titrations only should be used. All accurate titration values should be

used. The use of a rough value is [–1].

The average value can be calculated to two decimal places or more, e.g. 25.15 and 25.20 would average to 25.175. If three (or more) accurate titres are recorded, then the average titre must be calculated using all three (or more) accurate titres. Any error is [–1]. This might be an incorrect calculation or the omission of units. If the average titre is included in the table then the units indicated on the table apply.

Titration consistency [1] This is the difference within the accurate titrations. If three (or more) accurate

values are given then the difference between highest and lowest is used.

Difference Mark 0.3 [1] >0.3 [0] This value of 0.1 might need to be raised in the light of candidate response. [8] 8

General points

• All calculations are marked according to the number of errors made.

• Errors can be carried through. If the wrong calculation is carried out then the incorrect answer can be carried through. One mistake at the start of a question does not always mean that all marks are lost.

• Any number of decimal places may be used provided the ‘rounding’ is correct.

• Listing is when more than one answer is given for a question that only requires one answer, e.g. the precipitate from a chloride with silver nitrate is a white solid; if the candidate states a white or a cream solid, one answer is correct and one answer is wrong. Hence they cancel out.

• Although names might be in the mark scheme it is generally accepted that formulae can replace them. Formulae and names are often interchangeable in chemistry.

• The marking of colours is defined in the ‘CCEA GCE Chemistry Acceptable Colours’ document.

MARKING GUIDELINES

Interpretation of the Mark Scheme

• Carry error through This is where mistakes/wrong answers are penalised when made, but if carried into further steps of the question, then no further penalty is applied. This pertains to calculations and observational/deduction exercises. Please annotate candidates’ answers by writing the letters c.e.t. on the appropriate place in the candidates’ answers.

• Oblique/forward slash This indicates an acceptable alternative answer(s).

• Brackets Where an answer is given in the mark scheme and is followed by a word/words in brackets, this indicates that the information within the brackets is non-essential for awarding the mark(s).
