SECTION A
1. An experiment was carried out to determine the percentage of iron in an iron salt sample.
A 0.500 g sample of iron salt was placed in a conical flask. To it, 25.0 mL of dilute sulfuric acid,
10 mL of phosphoric acid and 8 drops of an indicator were added. The contents of the flask were
mixed and titrated against a 0.020 mol dm-3 solution of potassium dichromate until the end point
was reached. The ionic equation for the reaction is given below.
Cr2O72- + 6Fe2+ + 14H+ → 6Fe3+ + 2Cr3+ + 7H2O
Figure 1 shows the burette readings of the initial and final volumes of EACH titration.

2. (a) Jamelia is in her room studying and smells the scent of curry coming from her mom’s
cooking in the kitchen area. She thinks to herself, “Ah! Diffusion at work!”
(ii) Explain how the diffusion of the scent of the curry supports the particulate theory
of matter.
.................................................................................................................................
The air is made up of tiny particles that are in constant random motion
................................................................................................................................
These particals collide with the curry sent which tranfers the knetic energy to the
sent particles which caused the particles to move
.................................................................................................................................
so the particles move from the kitchen ( Higher Concentration) to her room
.................................................................................................................................
( lower concentration )
(2 marks)
(iii) Diffusion is a process that can also occur in liquids. State how the arrangement
of particles in a liquid differs from that in a solid and a gas.
