(b) Element X reacts with element Z to produce a compound with formation of ionic bond.
The electronic configuration of atom X is 2.1 and the electronic configuration of atom Z is 2.8.7. To attain the stable
duplet electron arrangement, atom X donates one electron to form a positive ion.
X X+ + e-
Atom Z will receive an electron to form Z- ion and attains the stable octet electron arrangement with 8 electrons in the
valence electron shell.
Z + e- Z-
The X+ ion and Z- ion will attract each other with a strong electrostatic force and form an ionic compound with the
formula XZ.
(c) Element Y reacts with element Z to form a compound with formation of covalent bond.
To attain the stable octet electron arrangement with 8 electrons in the valence electron shell, atom Y shares electrons
with atom Z. One atom Y contributes 4 electrons and four atom Z contribute one electron each. Atom Y shares 4 pairs
of electrons with four atom Z to form a covalent compound with the formula YZ.
(d) Compound XZ has a higher melting point than compound YZ. In compound XZ, the electrostatic force of attraction
between oppositely charged ions is very strong and a lot of heat energy is required to overcome it. In compound YZ,
the intermolecular force of attraction between molecules is weak and a little heat energy is required to overcome it.

Flavoring agents are added to food to make it taste better. The agents are of two types: artificial flavours and flavour
enhancers.
Artificial flavours include sweeteners and others such as peppermint or vanilla. Examples are aspartame and saccharin.
These two are actually substitutes for sugar to enhance the sweetness of food.
Flavour enhancers are chemicals added to food to bring out the flavours or to enhance the taste, for example,
monosodium glutamate (MSG).
Preservatives and antioxidants protect food from being spoiled by bacterial and fungal attack, and atmospheric
oxidation, respectively.
Preservatives, for example sodium nitrite, benzoic acid and sodium benzoate, retard or prevent growth of
microorganisms so that food can be kept longer.
Examples of antioxidants include sulphur dioxide and sodium sulphite. They are added to food to prevent oxidation of
fats and oils by oxygen in air.
Colouring agents are synthetic dyes used to restore the colour of food lost during processing and enhance natural
colours to increase attractiveness. Examples are azo and triphenyl compounds.
(b) Soap molecules contain hydrophilic and fat insoluble heads and hydrophobic hydrocarbon tails.
When soap is used on oily wetted hands, the negatively charged heads of soap ions dissolve in water, whereas, the
hydrocarbon tails dissolve in the layer of oil. During washing, the oily dirt is lifted and washed away from the hands.
Soap also can emulsify the oily dirt by breaking large drops of oil into smaller droplets.
If the hands are dipped in water, the oily droplets repel one another because they carry the same charge. As a result, the
oil is suspended.
During washing, the droplets will be carried away.

(c) To investigate the electrical conductivity of compounds
Apparatus
Crucible, spatula, graphite rods, batteries, light bulb, switch, connecting wires, tripod stand, clay triangle and Bunsen
burner.
Materials
Lead (II) bromide and naphthalene.
Methods
1. Three spatula of lead (II) bromide solid is put in a crucible.
2. Two graphite rods are dipped in the lead (II) bromide solid and the circuit is completed by connecting to the batteries
and switch.
3. The switch is turned on and the bulb is checked if it lights up.
4. Lead (II) bromide is heated strongly until it melts. The switch is turned on again to check if the bulb lights up.
5. Steps 1 to 4 are repeated using naphthalene to replace lead (II) bromide.
Results
Compound State Observation Inference
Lead (II) bromide Solid Light bulb does not light up Conducts electricity in the molten but not in the solid state
Molten Light bulb lights up
Naphthalene Solid Light bulb does not light up Does not conduct electricity in any state
Molten Light bulb does not light up
10. (a)
(i) The electronic configuration for Diagram 7.1 is 2.8.7. The element is chlorine.
(b) The distance between the nucleus and the valence electrons of atom in Diagram 7.2 is greater than that in Diagram 7.1
as the atom in Diagram 7.1 has 3 electron shells but the atom in Diagram 7.2 has 4 electron shells. Because of this, the
attractive forces between the nucleus and the valence electrons become weaker in Diagram 7.2 compared to the atom in
Diagram 7.1.
As a result, the atom in Diagram 7.1 has a stronger attraction towards electrons compared to the atom in Diagram 7.2.
The atom in Diagram 7.1 is more electronegative, therefore, it is more reactive compared to the atom in Diagram 7.2.
(c) The element in Diagram 7.2 reacts more actively with sodium hydroxide compared to the black coloured solid.
(d) (i) 1. Concentrated acid is corrosive and the experiment must be conducted in a fume chamber.
2. Make sure that the apparatus are connected tightly to prevent leakage of chlorine gas, which is poisonous.
(ii) Part G Chlorine gas will react with iron wool to produce iron (III) chloride solid.
2Fe + 3Cl2 2FeCl2
Part H The excessive chlorine gas will flow into sodium hydroxide solution to produce sodium chloride,
sodium chlorate and water.
Cl2 + 2NaOH NaCl + NaOCl + H2O

(b) Variables
i. Manipulated variable: temperature of sulphuric acid
ii. Responding variable: time take for magnesium ribbon to dissolve completely / rate of action
iii. Fixed variable: mass of magnesium ribbon; volume and concentration of sulphuric acid.
(c) Hypothesis
The higher the temperature of sulphuric acid, the shorter is the time taken for the magnesium ribbon to dissolve
completely; the higher the temperature of sulphuric acid, the higher is the reaction between sulphuric acid and
magnesium.

(e) Procedure
1 25 cm of 0.1 mol dm sulphuric acid is measured and poured into a conical flask.
2 Using a thermometer, the temperature of sulphuric acid solution is measured.
3 -5g of magnesium ribbon is weighed out and put into the acid in the conical flask.
4 A stop watch is started simultaneously
5 The conical flask is slowly shaken throughout the experiment
6 The time taken for the magnesium ribbon to dissolve completely in sulphuric acid is recorded.
7 Steps 1 to 6 are repeated with unchanged conditions and methods at different temperatures i.e 35C, 40C, 45C,
50C and 55C respectively.
