QUESTION 2
2.1 Carbon has four valence electrons, so it can achieve a full outer (2)
energy level by forming four covalent bonds (this property is
known as tetravalency). Carbon can form single, double, or triple
covalent bonds with other carbon atoms to produce long chain or
ring structures.

3.3.2 Negative marking from question 3.3.1
• 2-methylpropane is a spherical molecule, therefore smaller
surface area is presented to other molecules (sphere is 3D
shape with lowest surface-to-volume ratio).
• Less surface area at which van der Waals interactions with
other molecules can occur /fewer van der Waals
interactions/fewer cohesive interactions.
• Less energy required to overcome cohesive forces as
liquid hydrocarbon is vaporised. (3)
3.4 The pressure exerted by a vapour at equilibrium with its liquid in a
closed system. (2 or 0) (2)

3.5 Ethanoic acid (C) – It is possible for 2 H-bonds (at C=O and O-H)
to form between adjacent carboxylic acid
molecules. Therefore H-bonds stronger in
carboxylic acid. Therefore, more energy
required to overcome the stronger forces of
attraction/to overcome the IMF BETWEEN
molecules.
OR
propan-1-ol (B) – H-bonds weaker in alcohol as it is only possible
for 1 H bond at O-H to form between adjacent
molecules of alcohol therefore less energy
required to overcome the strong forces of
attraction/to overcome the IMF BETWEEN
molecules. (3)

QUESTION 5
5.1 Activation energy (1)
5.2.1 C (1)
–
5.2.2 Negative marking (1)
Total area under graphs A and C approximately the same, but
more molecules with greater average Ek therefore area X of graph C
greater – more molecules with greater average Ek.
5.2.3 • Increased temperature therefore increased average kinetic
energy of molecules.
• More of these molecules will have sufficient kinetic energy to
react./ Ek≥activation energy
• More effective collisions per second /unit time.
• Increased rate of reaction. (4)
5.3.1 A catalyst will speed up a chemical reaction (2)
without itself undergoing permanent change.
5.3.2 INCREASES (1)
5.3.3 A catalyst will create an alternative path of lower activation energy
“line Y” moves to the left – therefore area X increases in size. (2)
[12]
QUESTION 6

6.5.1 Decreases (1)
6.5.2 Decreases (1)
6.5.3 Decreases (1)
6.6 At lower T, the exothermic (forward) reaction is favoured.
Therefore, the reverse reaction is favoured,
reducing the concentration of the gas (products). If concentration of
products decrease then Kc will also decrease
