increasing molecular mass than pentanoic acid, this causes more
intermolecular forces V
Aangesien heksanoësuur ʼn groter kontakoppervlakte het / langer ketting /
toename in molekulêre massa as pentanoësuur, sal dit tot meer
intermolekulêre kragte lei.

length / lower molecular mass than hexanoic acid, this causes less

3.1.2 To smell the ester / Om die ester te ruik
(The smell of the ester is masked by the smell of the carboxylic acid.
Esters are fairly insoluble in water and form a thin layer on the water
surface. Esters are volatile. The excess acid and alcohol both dissolve in
water and are less volatile and the smell is less pronounced.)
(Die reuk van die ester word gemasker deur die reuk van die
karboksielsuur. Esters is redelik oplosbaar in water en vorm ʼn dun lag op
die water oppervlakte. Esters is vlugtig. Die oormaat suur en alcohol los
beide op in water en is minder vlugtig en die reuk is minder opvallend.) (1)
3.1.3 Any TWO safety precautions: / Enige TWEE veiligheidsmaatreëls:
• Sulphuric acid is corrosive. Use safety equipment e.g. goggles,

Swawelsuur is vretend. Gebruik veiligheidsklere, bv. Veiligheidsbrille,
handskoene, glassware.
• Do not use a pipette to suck up the acid.
Moet nie ʼn pipet gebruik om die suur op te suig nie.
• Because heat is involved and alcohols are flammable, a water bath is
needed in which to place the test tube.
Omdat hitte betrokke is en alkohole is vlambaar, word ʼn waterbad
benodig om die proefbuis in te plaas. (2)

4.1 4.1.1 10 kJ (1)
4.1.2 -20 kJ (1)
4.2 4.2.1 The particles with sufficient kinetic energy for a reaction to take place.
Die deeltjies met genoegsame kinetiese energie vir ʼn reaksie om plaas te
vind. (1)
4.2.2 B (1)
4.2.3 Increasing temperature increases the rate of reaction. Molecules must
collide with sufficient energy for bonds to break and a reaction to occur
(activation energy). When the temperature is increased, more particles
have enough energy for more effective collisions to take place and
more particles have energy greater than the activation energy.
Vermeerdering van die temperatuur verhoog die tempo van die reaksie.
Molecule moet bots met genoegsame energie vir die bindings om te
breek en ʼn reaksie om plaas te vind (aktiveringsenergie). Wanneer die
temperatuur verhoog, het meer deeltjies genoeg energie vir meer
effektiewe botsings om plaas te vind en meer deeltjies het energie groter
as die aktiveringsenergie.
OR / OF

Increase in energy increases kinetic energy. As the kinetic energy of the
particles increase, more particles have sufficient activation energy, the
chances of colliding with correct orientation increases, more effective
collisions per unit time takes place.
Toename in energie verhoog die kinetiese energie. Indien die kinetiese
energie van die deeltjies verhoog, is daar meer deeltjies met genoegsame
aktiveringsenergie, die kanse vir botsings met korrekte oriëntasie
verhoog, meer effektiewe botsings per eenheid tyd vind plaas.

Decreasing the volume will increase the pressure.
Reaction will reduce the stress on the system by favouring the reaction
that will reduce the pressure, i.e. less number of moles
Reaction will favour the forward reaction / production of A2O3(g) + O2(g) /
