Question 1

This question is about ionic bonding. Select all the correct statements.

Ionic bonding...

...is the process that occurs when atoms of a metal each donate one or more electrons to atoms of a non-metal.
...can occur between ions composed completely of non-metals.
...is the electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions.
...always produces a giant lattice structure.

Question 2

This question is about the dynamic equilibrium that is established during the Haber Process. Select one answer.

N2(g) + 3H2(g) ⇋ 2NH3(g) ΔH = −92.4 kJmol-1

When the equilibrium mixture is heated, it...

...shifts in the exothermic direction, towards the reactants.

Question 5

A student is comparing the boiling points of ethanol, ethanal and ethanoic acid, trying to decide which boils at the highest temperature and which at the lowest. They write the following notes. Tick all of the statements that are correct.
display formula of ethanol

Ethanol

display formula of ethanal

Ethanal

display formula ethanoic acid

Ethanoic acid

Ethanoic acid has a double C=O bond which increases the boiling point because it takes more energy to break.
Ethanal has the weakest Van der Waals forces.
Molecules of all three compounds experience hydrogen bonding.
Molecules of ethanoic acid experience permanent dipole permanent dipole interactions, which increase its boiling point.
The covalent O−H bond in ethanol is a hydrogen bond.

Question 6

This question is about redox reactions. Select the correct statement.

...the oxidising agent because it donates electrons.
...the reducing agent because it gains electrons.
...the reducing agent because it donates electrons.

Question 7

This question is about silicon dioxide. Tick all the correct statements. SiO2 has a high melting because...
...it has strong intermolecular forces.
...its atoms have full outer shells.
...it has strong forces of attraction between shared pairs of electrons and positive nuclei.
...it has a giant lattice structure.

Question 8

B

3 dimensional diagram of tetrafluoromethane

C

Molecules B and C contain polar bonds.
In C the dipoles cancel out.
A is non-polar.
Molecules B and C are polar.
The C−Cl bond is polar because chlorine is significantly more electronegative than carbon.
