This occurrence of an oxidation state which is 2 less than the group valency, as exemplified by T l , is sometimes referred to as the “inert - pair effect”. (f) However, the term “inert - pair effect” is somewhat inaccurate since it implies that the energy required to involve the valence n s 2 electron pair in bonding increases in the sequence A l < Ga < I n < T l . Using appropriate data from Table 5.2, justify why the term “inert - pair effect” is inaccurate. [2] TJC/2020/II/5a-c 4 Octane, C 8 H 18 , is a liquid hydrocarbon used as a fuel for motor vehicles. A scientist conducted a thermometry experiment as shown in Fig 5.1, to determine the enthalpy change of combustion of octane. The heat evolved from the combustion of octane is used to raise the temperature of the water and calorimeter. Fig. 5.1 For an accurate determination of the enthalpy change of combustion of octane from this experiment, the heat absorbed by the calorimeter has to be accounted for, which can be used to determine the heat capacity. (a) Define standard enthalpy change of combustion for octane . [1] (b) In one experiment, the scientist followed the procedure below to determine the heat capacity of the copper calorimeter. Step 1: Measure 50 cm 3 of cold water using a 50 cm 3 measuring cylinder into an insulated copper calorimeter. Step 2: Using the same measuring cylinder, measure 50 cm 3 of cold water into a 100 cm 3 beaker. Step 3: Heat up the water in the 100 cm 3 beaker to about 90 o C. Step 4: Stir the cold water in the copper calorimeter with a thermometer and note the initial temperature.
Step 5: When the temperature of the water in the 100 cm 3 beaker is about 90 o C, remove it from the heat source and measure accurately the temperature of the hot water. Step 6: Immediately pour the hot water from the 100 cm 3 beaker to the cold water in the copper calorimeter. Stir with a thermometer and record the highest temperature reached in the mixture. The data collected is shown in Table 5.1. Table 5.1 Initial temperature of cold water / o C 27.6 Initial temperature of hot water / o C 81.3 Highest temperature of mixture reached / o C 41.5 (i) With reference to the procedure above, suggest why it is not necessary for the temperature of water in Step 3 to be accurate? [1] (ii) Using the data in Table 5.1, calculate the temperature rise of the cold water in the calorimeter and temperature fall of hot water in the beaker. [1] (iii) With reference to your answer in (b)(ii) , calculate the heat absorbed by the calorimeter. Hence, determine the heat capacity of the calorimeter in J o C -1 . [2] (c) (i) After the heat capacity is determined, the same calorimeter was washed and cooled, before 250 cm 3 of water was added at room temperature. 1.35 g of octane was then burnt in excess oxygen and the maximum rise in temperature of the water was found to be 45 o C. Using your answer in (b)(iii) , calculate the enthalpy change of combustion of octane in kJ mol -1 . [2] (ii) The enthalpy change of combustion of octane can also be determined by considering the enthalpy change of vapourisation of octane and water. Enthalpy change of vapourisation / kJ mol -1 octane + 58.0 water + 44.0 Using the information above and relevant values from the Data Booklet , construct a suitable energy cycle to determine another value for the enthalpy change of combustion of octane in kJ mol -1 .

After each addition, the mixture was stirred extensively and the lowest temperature was recorded. The results were plotted below. You may assume that the specific heat capacity of solution is 4.18 J cm 3 K 1 , the volume of solution remains the same during the experiment, and the heat capacity of the insulated container is zero.

NYJC/2020/III/4a-e 8 An Ellingham diagram is commonly used to show the variation in the free energy change of reaction with temperature. Since enthalpy change and entropy change are essentially constant with temperature unless a phase change occurs, the free energy versus temperature plot can be drawn as a series of straight lines.

[3] TMJC/2020/III/5a 9 This question is about the chemistry of nitrogen and oxygen containing compounds. (a) Dinitrogen tetroxide, N 2 O 4 , is a powerful oxidiser that spontaneously reacts on contact with hydrazine, making the pair a popular bipropellant for rockets. Fig 5.1 shows how the entropy of N 2 O 4 varies with temperature at fixed pressure. N 2 O 4 exists as a solid at point A and gas at point D . Fig 5.1 - 0 Temperature/K A B C D Entropy/ kJ mol 1
(i) Explain what is meant by the term entropy . [1] (ii) By considering the change in entropy in Fig 5.1, explain the shape of the graph from B to D . [2] Dinitrogen pentoxide, N 2 O 5 , has been used as a reagent to introduce nitro group in arenes. It exists as a solid with the structure O 2 N O NO 2 . The standard enthalpy change of formation of solid N 2 O 5 is +11.3 kJ mol 1 . (iii) Given the bond energy of N O bond is 210 kJ mol 1 , estimate the average bond energy of N=O bond using relevant data from the Data Booklet . [1] (iv) Using the data given above, construct an energy cycle to calculate the enthalpy change of sublimation of N 2 O 5 . N 2 O 5 (s) N 2 O 5 (g) H sub (N 2 O 5 ) [3] H / kJ mol 1 N 2 (g) + O 2 (g) 2NO(g) +180 2NO 2 (g) + ½ O 2 (g) N 2 O 5 (g) 55 NO(g) + ½ O 2 (g) NO 2 (g) 57
