A hydrated salt, compound A, is analysed and has the following percentage composition by mass: Cr 19.51% Cl 39.96% H 4.51% O 36.02% Calculate the formula of compound A, showing clearly the water of crystallisation. Show your working. [3] 2. By 2020, the EU has regulated that a car must emit less CO» per kilometre than in 2015. A typical car will need to emit 5.6 x 10° g less CO2in 2020 compared with 2015. Calculate how much less petrol would be consumed by a typical car in 2020 to meet this regulation, Give your answer in litres of petrol (I litre of petrol has a mass of 700 g). Assume that petrol is liquid octane and that complete combustion takes place, as in the equation below. CiHis (I) + 12.503 (g) > 8CO> (g) + 9H30 (1) [4] 3. Nitrogen forms several different oxides. N20 is a useful anaesthetic and NO has been linked to the depletion of ozone in the stratosphere. N2O is supplied as a compressed gas in steel cylinders for use as an anaesthetic. The cylinders are stored at 20.0 °C. Calculate the gas pressure, in Pa, in a 2.32 dm’ steel cylinder containing 187 g of NO gas. Give your answer in standard form to three significant figures.

(a)A student reacts a Group 2 metal, M, with water. M(s) + 2H20(1) > M(OH)s(aq) + Ho(g) The student measures the volume of hydrogen gas produced. 0.162 g of the metal produces 97.0 cm’ of gas measured at room temperature and pressure. i, Draw a labelled diagram of the apparatus that can be used to carry out this experiment. [2] ii, Identify the Group 2 metal, M. Show your working. [3] (b)The student plans to repeat the experiment using the same mass of a Group 2 metal from further down the group. Predict whether the volume of hydrogen produced would be greater than, less than or the same as the volume in the first experiment. Explain your answer. [1] 5. Bromine is a reactive element. It combines with other non-metals to form covalent compounds. Phosphorus tribromide, PBrs, and iodine monobromide, IBr, are examples of covalent compounds used in organic synthesis. PBrs can be prepared by heating bromine with phosphorus, Ps (a) Write an equation for this reaction.

[3] 6. When hydrated strontium chloride is heated, the water of crystallisation is removed, leaving a residue of anhydrous strontium chloride. A student carries out an experiment to find the value of x in the formula of hydrated strontium chloride, StCl2xH20. ‘The student’s method is outlined below. Step | Weigh an empty crucible. Add SrCl:.xH20 to the crucible and reweigh. Step 2 Heat the crucible and contents for 10 minutes. Allow to cool and reweigh. Step 3 Heat the crucible and residue for another 5 minutes. Allow to cool and weigh the crucible and residue, Repeat step 3 a further two times. The student’s results are shown below: Mass ofemptycrucible/g SSs~™~SC«~dCSSIG Mass of crucible +SrChxHsO/g 18.65 First mass of crucible + residue / 17.66 Second mass of crucible + residue / g 17.61 Third mass of crucible + residue / g 17.58 Fourth mass of crucible + residue / g 17.58 (a) Calculate the value of x in SrCl.xH:O.
