The diagram below shows an experimental set-up in which a metal oxide X2O(s)
is decomposed upon strong heating. A silvery metal X and a colourless gas Z
are formed.

(a) State what Z is and suggest a test for it.


(b) When 3.028 g of X2O(s) is completely decomposed, 2.819 g of metal X can
be obtained.
(i) Calculate the relative atomic mass of X. (Relative atomic mass: O = 16.0)
(ii) Suggest what X is.

(a) Oxygen / O2 [1]
It relights a glowing splint. [1]
(b) (i) Relative atomic mass of X = 2.819 ÷ [(3.028−2.819) ÷ 16 × 2] [1]

Chemical knowledge
Similarities (maximum 2 marks):
Both tin-plating and galvanising involve coating / covering iron with a thin layer of metal [1]
(zinc / tin). (Do not accept ‘plating’)
The layer prevents iron from contacting water (and) oxygen. [1]
Differences (maximum 3 marks):
Tin-plated iron will rust / rust faster when tin coating is scratched off but galvanised iron
DSE 21_03 will not rust / rust slower when zinc coating is scratched off. [1]
(c) (ii) When the tin coating is scratched off, tin-plated iron will rust because
tin will lose electrons less readily than iron / tin is less reactive than iron / tin is lower than
iron in electrochemical series (ECS) / tin is a weaker reducing agent than iron. [1]
[1] When the zinc coating is scratched off, galvanised iron will not rust because
zinc will lose electrons more readily than iron / zinc is more reactive than iron / zinc is
higher than iron in ECS / zinc is a stronger reducing agent than iron / zinc gives sacrificial
protection to iron. [1]
