Unreacted ICl reacted with excess potassium iodide solution, forming iodine according to the equation: ICl + KI → I2 + KCl The amount of iodine produced was measured by reacting the mixture with a solution of sodium thiosulfate, Na2S2O3. The iodine released reacted with 32.65 cm3 of 0.100 mol dm−3 sodium thiosulfate solution in the mole ratio of 1 mol I2 : 2 mol Na2S2O3.

Deduce, using the information given, the two half‑equations occurring in the lead‑acid battery. State symbols are required. (3) 28 (d) When solid lead(II) sulfate is added to aqueous sodium iodide, an equilibrium is established. PbSO4(s) + 2I –(aq) PbI2(s) + SO4 2–(aq) The expression for the equilibrium constant, Kc , for this reaction is Kc = [SO (aq)] [ (aq)]2 4 2− −I In an experiment, Kc may be determined by adding excess lead(II) sulfate to 25.0 cm3 of 0.100 mol dm –3 sodium iodide. The volume remains constant at 25.0 cm3. The mixture is left to reach equilibrium at room temperature. Ice‑cold water is added to freeze the position of equilibrium and the mixture is then titrated with standard silver nitrate solution. The whole mixture requires 12.20 cm3 of 0.0500 mol dm –3 silver nitrate solution to react with the aqueous iodide ions at equilibrium.

Under no circumstances may information concerning apparatus or materials be given before the examination to a candidate or other unauthorised person. 2. In a centre with a large number of candidates it may be necessary for two or more examination sessions to be organised. It is the responsibility of the schools to ensure that there should be no contact between candidates taking each session. 3. A suitable laboratory must be reserved for the examination and kept locked throughout the period of preparation. Unauthorised persons not involved in the preparation for the examination must not be allowed to enter. Candidates must not be admitted until the specified time for commencement of the examination. 4. The Supervisor must ensure that the solutions provided for the candidates are of the nature and concentrations specified in the Apparatus and Materials List. 5. The Supervisor is to be granted access to the Teacher’s Copy of Practical Booklet A on Wednesday 4 May 2022. The Supervisor is asked to check, at the earliest opportunity, that the experiments and tests in the question paper may be completed satisfactorily using the apparatus, materials and solutions that have been assembled. This question paper must then be returned to safe custody at the earliest possible moment after the Supervisor has ensured that all is in order. No access to the question paper should be allowed before 4 May 2022. 6. Centres may need to carry out multiple sessions to accommodate all their candidates sitting Practical Booklet A in a laboratory. Supervision must take place from 30 minutes after the scheduled starting time of the examination, as set out in the timetable, until the time when the candidate(s) begin(s) their examination(s). This is in order to ensure that there is no contact with other candidates. The centre must appoint a member of staff from the centre to supervise the candidate(s) at all times while they are on the premises. 7. All apparatus should be checked before the examination, and there should be an adequate supply of spare apparatus in case of breakages. The Apparatus and Materials List should be regarded as a minimum and there is no objection to candidates being supplied with more than the minimum amount of apparatus and materials. 8. Candidates may not use text books and laboratory notes for reference during the examination, and must be informed of this beforehand.

20 (2410U20-1) 20 10. The crystallisation of sodium ethanoate from a super-saturated solution is used to release heat in reusable hand warmers. (a) A super-saturated solution of sodium ethanoate was made by dissolving 320 g of hydrated sodium ethanoate (CH3COONa.3H2O) in 60 cm3 of hot water. It was then allowed to cool to room temperature, which was measured as 17 °C. A thermometer was added to the solution, which caused the sodium ethanoate to start crystallising. The temperature of the process was recorded every 30 seconds for 3 minutes. The results are shown below: Time / s Temperature / °C 0 17 30 27 60 35 90 41 120 40 150 39 180 38 © WJEC CBAC Ltd.

Under no circumstances may information concerning apparatus or materials be given before the examination to a candidate or other unauthorised person. 2. In a centre with a large number of candidates it may be necessary for two or more examination sessions to be organised. It is the responsibility of the schools to ensure that there should be no contact between candidates taking each session. 3. A suitable laboratory must be reserved for the examination and kept locked throughout the period of preparation. Unauthorised persons not involved in the preparation for the examination must not be allowed to enter. Candidates must not be admitted until the specified time for commencement of the examination. 4. The Supervisor must ensure that the solutions provided for the candidates are of the nature and concentrations specified in the Apparatus and Materials List. 5. The Supervisor is to be granted access to the Teacher’s Copy of Practical Booklet A on Monday 9 May 2022. The Supervisor is asked to check, at the earliest opportunity, that the experiments and tests in the question paper may be completed satisfactorily using the apparatus, materials and solutions that have been assembled. This question paper must then be returned to safe custody at the earliest possible moment after the Supervisor has ensured that all is in order. No access to the question paper should be allowed before Monday 9 May 2022. 6. Centres may need to carry out multiple sessions to accommodate all their candidates sitting Practical Booklet A in a laboratory. Supervision must take place from 30 minutes after the scheduled starting time of the examination, as set out in the timetable, until the time when the candidate(s) begin(s) their examination(s). This is in order to ensure that there is no contact with other candidates. The centre must appoint a member of staff from the centre to supervise the candidate(s) at all times while they are on the premises. 7. All apparatus should be checked before the examination, and there should be an adequate supply of spare apparatus in case of breakages. The Apparatus and Materials List should be regarded as a minimum and there is no objection to candidates being supplied with more than the minimum amount of apparatus and materials. 8. Candidates may not use text books and laboratory notes for reference during the examination, and must be informed of this beforehand.
