1.3 Assessed Homework Mark Scheme 2008
1. (a) (i) Covalent (1)
(ii) Co-ordinate (1) (or dative)
(iii) Both / two / pair electrons come from nitrogen (1)
(iv) 4 bonding / electron pairs (1)
repel equally (1)
OR are identical
as far apart as possible (1)
OR to position of minimum repulsion
tetrahedron (1) 7
(b) Power (or ability) of an element / atom to attract electron pair/electrons/
an electron/electron density (1)
in a covalent bond (1)
Allow attract from, withdraw in, do not allow remove from, withdraw from.
2
(c) (i) Electron deficient (1)
Or small, slight, partial positive charge
(ii) H < N (1) 2
[11]
2. (a) (i) Electronegativity (difference) or suitable description (1)
Accept F and Cl are highly electronegative
Not both atoms are highly electronegative
(ii) HF = hydrogen bonding (1)
HCl = (permanent) dipole-dipole bonding or even van de Waals’ (1)
Hydrogen bonding stronger / is the strongest IMF (1) 4
Accept a statement that HF must have the stronger IMF,
even if no IMFs identified
The explanation must be based on intermolecular
forces/attractions
Note: if the explanation is clearly intramolecular = CE
(b) Electron pair or lone pair donated (1)
Do not accept ‘donation of electrons’
From chloride ion to Al or AlCl3 (1) 2
M1 can be earned by a general explanation of coordinate
bonding, even if the electron pair is said to come from Al.
The second mark, M2, is for this specific bond
Ignore missing charge

(1 ) (1 )
PCl5 shown as trigonal bipyramid PCl4+ shown as tetrahedral
[Look for: ONE solid linear Cl-P-Cl bond] NO solid linear Cl-P-Cl bonds]
Bond Angle(s) 90° and 120° (1) Bond angle(s) 109 or 109.5° (1)
[10]
3. (a) 4LiH + AlCl3 LiAlH4 + 3LiCl 1
– 2
(b) H = 1s or 1s2 1
(c) Tetrahedral or diagram 1
(Not distorted tetrahedral)
(Equal) repulsion 1
between four bonding pairs / bonds 1
(Not repulsion between H atoms loses M2 and M3)
(Not ‘separate as far as possible’)
(‘4’ may be inferred from a correct diagram)
(d) Dative (covalent) or coordinate 1
–
Lone pair or non-bonding pair of electron or both e 1
–
QoL Donated from H to Al or shared between H and Al 1
(tied to M2)
–
(Not ‘from H atom’) (Not ‘to Al ion’) (Not ‘e s transferred’)

4. (a) Force 1: Van der Waals’ (1)
Force 2: dipole - dipole (1)
Force 3: hydrogen bonding (1)
OR London, Dispersion, temporary dipole

10.3 Bonding HW MS
(b) (i) covalent between atoms (1)
OR within molecule
Van der Waals’ between molecules (1)
(ii) molecular.(1)
(iii) Bonds (or forces) between molecules must be broken or loosened (1)
OR VdW forces
OR intermolecular forces
Mention of ions CE=0
4
(c) (i) H-Bonding in HF (1)
(dipole-) dipole in HCl (1)
OR V.dW
H-bonding is stronger than dipole-dipole or V.dW.(1)
OR H-bonding is a strongest intermolecular force for 3rd mark
(ii) HI bigger molecule than HCl (1)
OR Heavier, more e’s, more electron shells, bigger Mr, more polarisable
Therefore the forces between HI molecules are stronger (1)
QL mark (Look for unambiguous statements using correct terminology)
5
(d) (i) ionic (1)
Strong forces between ions (1)
OR lots of energy required to break bonds
(ii) All bonds must be broken (1)
mention of molecules etc CE=0
3
(e) macromolecular (1)
OR giant molecule / lattice or correct diagram
Strong covalent bonds (1)
OR lots of energy required to break bonds
