3.2.1 Write a balanced equation for the reaction that occurs when
chlorine is bubbled through water.

It is observed that when the chlorine gas is bubbled through the water
containing the bromothymol blue, the solution turns yellow. However, after a
while the yellow solution becomes colourless.

3.2.2 Is the pH of the initial yellow solution LARGER THAN or SMALLER
THAN 7?

3.2.3 Give a reason for the change in colour from yellow to colourless.

Sandile must prepare nitrogen dioxide gas in the laboratory. He places copper
turnings in a test tube and adds nitric acid. He expects to find a reddish brown
gas to be liberated. However, a colourless gas is formed.

3.3.1 Was the nitric acid that Sandile added dilute of concentrated?

3.3.2 Make use of the table of Standard Reduction Potentials and write
down the equation of the half reaction that explains the formation of
the colourless gas.

3.3.3 When some water is added, the solution in the test tube turns to a
blue colour. Write down the FORMULA of the substance
responsible for the blue colour.
