2. Insoluble salts can be made by precipitation reactions. A student mixed solutions of some soluble
salts.
(a) Name:
(i) an insoluble cobalt salt ................................................................................................. [1]
(b) Write the chemical equation for the reaction in which silver carbonate is
formed. .............................................................................................................................................. [2]
(c) Write the ionic equation for the reaction in which lead(II) iodide is
formed. ..............................................................................................................................................
[2]
(d) Aqueous silver nitrate produces a yellow precipitate with both iodide ions and carbonate ions.
When testing an unknown solution for iodide ions, the aqueous silver nitrate is acidified.
3. Iron has two oxidation states +2 and +3. There are two possible equations for the redox reaction
between iron and bromine.
(i) Indicate, on the first equation, the change which is oxidation. Give a reason for your
choice. .................................................................................................................................... ...................

5.The manufacture of sulfuric acid by the Contact process occurs in four stages.
stage 1 Molten sulfur is burned in air to produce sulfur dioxide gas.
stage 2 Sulfur dioxide is reacted with oxygen to form sulfur trioxide.
stage 3 Sulfur trioxide is converted to form oleum , H 2S2O7.
stage 4 Oleum is converted to sulfuric acid.
(i) Complete the chemical equation for stage 1 by adding the appropriate state symbols. [1]
(ii) Name the catalyst used in stage 2 and state the temperature used. [2]
Catalyst ............................................
temperature ..................................... °C
(iii) Write chemical equations for the reactions in stage 3 and stage 4.
stage 3 ...............................................................................................................................
stage 4 ............................................................................................................................... [2]
(i) State one environmental reason why sulfur dioxide should not be released into the
atmosphere. .......................................................................................................................................

The forward reaction is exothermic. The reaction is usually carried out at a temperature between
400 and 450 °C.
(i) What is the effect on the position of equilibrium of using a temperature above 450 °C?
