1. You are provided with the following:
M; which is a solution of an acid.

N; which is a solution of a base
You are required to determine the reaction (mole) ratio between the base and the
acid.
Procedure
(a) Using a measuring cylinder, measure 120cm3 of M and transfer it into a

250cm3 beaker. Add 80cm3 of distilled water, mix and label it as BA1.
(b) Transfer 180cm3 of N into another 250cm3 using a measuring cylinder.

Add 20cm3 of distilled water, mix and label it BA2.
(c) Run 25cm3 of BA1 from the burette into a dry plastic beaker.
(d) Add at once 10.0cm3 of BA2 from a measuring cylinder into the plastic
beaker containing BA1. Gently stir with a thermometer and record the
highest temperature attained by the mixture.
(e) Repeat procedures (c) and (d) using 15.0, 20.0, 25.0, 30.0, 35.0 and
40.0cm3 of BA2
(f) Record your results in the table below. (3 ½ marks)
Volume of BA2

used (cm3)
Temperature
of mixture (0C)
Questions
(a) Plot a graph of temperature of mixture against volume of BA2.

(5 ½ marks)
(b) From the graph, determine the maximum volume of BA2 required to react
with 25cm3 of BA1. (01 mark)

2. You are provided with substance S; which contains one cation and two anions.
Carry out the following tests to identify the cation and anions in S. Identify any
gas (es) that may be evolved. Record your observations and deductions in the
table below. (16 ½ marks)
TESTS OBSERVATIONS DEDUCTIONS

(a) Heat a spatula endful
of S strongly in a dry
test tube.
(b) Dissolve three spatula

endfuls of S in about
5cm3 of water. Divide
the solution into five
parts.
(i) To the first part, add

dilute sodium hydroxide
solution drop wise until
in excess.
(ii) To the second part, add
dilute ammonia solution
drop wise until in
excess.
(iii) To the third part add,

2-3 drops of potassium
iodide solution.

(iv) To the fourth part, add
2-3 drops of Lead (II)
nitrate solution
followed by dilute
nitric acid.
(c) To the fifth part, add

barium nitrate solution
drop wise until in
excess. Filter and divide
the filtrate into two
parts.
(i) To the first part of
the filtrate, add equal
volume of Lead (II)
nitrate followed by
2-3 drops of dilute
nitric acid. Boil cool
using cold water.
(ii) To the second part
of the filtrate, add
Silver nitrate
solution followed by
dilute nitric acid.
Identify:
(i) The cation in S ……...…………………………………………………..
(ii) The anions in S ……...…………………………………………………..
