Indicative content
Simple statements / descriptions• have 7 electrons in the outer shell• need to gain an electron• form ions with a -1 charge• halogens further down the group are less reactive (or vice versa)• halogens further down the group have more shells or energy levels (or vice
versa)
Linked statements / explanations• have 7 electrons in the outer shell so need to gain an electron to have the
electronic structure of a noble gas• halogens further down the group are less reactive because they have more
shells or energy levels (or vice versa)• halogens further down the group have more shells or energy levels so less
attractive force on the incoming electron (or vice versa)• halogens further down the group have more shells or energy levels so more
‘shielding’ against the incoming electron (or vice versa)• outer electrons of halogens further down group are further away from the
attractive force of the nucleus (or vice versa)• an electron is less easily gained because there are more shells or energy
levels (or vice versa)• an electron is less easily gained because the outer electrons are further from
the attractive force of the nucleus (or vice versa)6

(a) density = mass / volume111
Page 48 of 57
(b) any two from:
• no forces shown between spheres• atoms / molecules / ions are not solid spheres• not all the same size.
2
(c) at higher temperatures particles have more kinetic energy1
(so) the (average) speed of the particles increases1
(so there are) more frequent collisions with the wall of the container1
which apply a greater force on wall of container (so pressure rises)1
[7]
(a) most alpha particles went straight through, suggesting lots of empty space112
a few alpha particles bounced back, suggesting small central nucleus1
with all the positive charge1
the plum pudding model does not explain the results because it shows the whole atom as aball of positive charge with no empty space
1
(b) the figures show that the radius of an atom is 10 000 times bigger than the nucleus1
consistent with the nuclear model, which says that the atom has a tiny nucleus at thecentre of the atom
1
(c) all hydrogen atoms have just one proton (in the nucleus)1
some hydrogen atoms also have one neutron1
protons and neutrons have the same relative mass so mass number of these atoms is 21
(d) neutrons are not attracted or repelled by a positive nucleus1
so the neutrons would all pass through the foil1

(d) Cl2(aq) + 2 Br–(aq) Br2(aq) + 2 Cl–(aq)
correct formulae1
correct balancing1
correct state symbol1
(e) the further down the group, the halogen becomes less reactive because outer electrons arefurther from the nucleus
1
so less attractive force on an incoming electron1
[10]
(a) because they form hydroxides114
that give alkaline solutions (in water)1
(b) the atoms have more electron shells (as move down the group)1
so the electron in the outer shell is further away from the nucleus1
which reduces the attraction to the nucleus1
so the electron is lost more easily from the atom1

do not accept any other particles1
(these) take little energy to overcome
