Pre-enrolment task for 2014 entry

Chemistry

Why do I need to complete a pre-enrolment task?

This task is so we can assess your skills before starting the course

You should hand in the task at your first lesson in September 2014.

How will I be given feedback on how well I have done?

You will receive feedback from your teacher at the end of the second teaching week.

11. Balancing Equations.

1. Balance the following equations:

C2H6(g) + O2 (g) → CO2 (g) + H2O(l)

Fe(s) + O2(g) → Fe2O3(s)

Na(s) + H2O(l) → NaOH(aq) + H2(g)

KI(aq) + Pb(NO3)2(aq) → PbI2(s) + KNO3(aq)

CaCO3(s) + HCl(aq) → CaCl2(aq) + CO2(g) + H2O(l)

Question 12, 13, and 14 involve chemical calculations

12. Rubidium forms an ionic compound with silver and iodine. This compound has a

potential use in miniaturised batteries because of its high electrical

conductivity.

percentage composition by mass: Rb, 7.42%; Ag, 37.48%; I, 55.10%.

(i) Define the term empirical formula.

.........................................................................................................................

(ii) Calculate the empirical formula of the compound showing your working

clearly.

13. Barium metal can be extracted from barium oxide, BaO, by reduction with

aluminium.
