Answer

6. <br />(a) The experimental setup described in the question, where a gas is produced by decomposing a compound using electricity, is commonly referred to as an electrolysis experiment.<br />(b) To work out the current flowing in the circuit, you can use the formula:<br /><br />\[\text{Charge} = \text{Current} \times \text{Time}\]<br /><br />Given that the charge is related to the amount of substance produced in an electrolysis reaction, you can calculate the current by dividing the total charge passed through the solution by the time taken.<br /><br />7. <br />- Soluble salts: Sodium carbonate, Lead nitrate, Copper (II) sulphate, Zinc chloride<br />- Insoluble salts: Silver chloride, Barium sulphate, Lead sulphate<br /><br />8. <br />(a) Two things other than the volume of water that must be kept constant for such data to be meaningful are:<br /> - Concentration of soap solution<br /> - Temperature of water<br /><br />(b) <br />(i) Water sample F has the highest hardness because it required the least volume of soap solution to form lather, indicating the presence of more dissolved minerals causing hardness.<br />(ii) Three causes of hardness of water are:<br /> - Presence of calcium and magnesium ions<br /> - Dissolved bicarbonates<br /> - Dissolved sulfates<br /><br />9. <br />(a) <br />- Elements: Copper, Chlorine<br />- Compounds: Milk (contains various compounds), Soap (typically contains sodium or potassium salts of fatty acids)<br />- Mixtures: Steel (alloy of iron and carbon), Sugar (pure substance but can be mixed with other substances)<br /><br />(b) Four differences between the elements identified in 9(a) could include:<br />- Physical properties (e.g., color, density)<br />- Chemical reactivity<br />- Atomic structure (number of protons, neutrons, electrons)<br />- Occurrence in nature
