Q21.
The extract below was taken from a leaflet on the uses of platinum. One of the uses described
was in making electrodes for spark plugs in car engines. The spark plug produces the spark which
ignites the fuel in the engine.
Spark Plugs
The electrodes in a spark plug have to conduct electricity very well. Since they
project into the combustion chamber of the engine, they must also be able to
withstand extremely high temperatures in a very corrosive atmosphere.
Nickel-based plugs have been produced for many years. They only last a fairly
short time. As the electrodes wear, combustion becomes less efficient and the
petrol is not burnt completely.
Platinum and other precious metals can now be used in spark plugs. These last
much longer and are more efficient. This can help to reduce air pollution.
The table below gives some information about platinum and nickel.

This picture shows a sword. The sword is about 3400 years old. It is made of an alloy called
bronze.
Bronze is made from copper and tin. Bronze made better swords than pure copper. This is because
bronze is harder than pure copper. Explain why bronze is harder than pure copper. Your answer
should include details of:
• how the atoms are arranged in pure copper and bronze
• why pure copper is relatively soft
• why bronze is harder.

Q26.
Read the article and then answer the questions.
Nanotennis!
Tennis balls contain air under pressure, which gives them their bounce. Normal tennis balls are changed at
regular intervals during tennis matches because they slowly lose some of the air.
‘Nanocoated’ tennis balls have a ‘nanosize’ layer of butyl rubber. This layer slows down the escape of air
so that the ball does not lose its pressure as quickly.
(a)
What is the meaning of nanosize?

Q27.
Read this passage about metals.
Metals are crystalline materials. The metal crystals are normally about 20 000 nm (nanometres) in diameter.
The atoms inside these crystals are arranged in layers. A new nanoscience process produces nanocrystalline
metals. Nanocrystalline metals are stronger and harder than normal metals. It is hoped that nanocrystalline
metals can be used in hip replacements.
The use of nanocrystalline metals should give people better hip replacements which last longer.

5-3 marks Some structure to the answer. An attempt to compare the metals
by giving some advantages and disadvantages.
2-1 marks Little structure or attempt to compare. Marks gained by listing a few advantages or
disadvantages.
Advantages of Nickel:
Relatively low cost which makes the sparking plugs cheaper to produce.
Quite high melting point which is needed because the temperature in the
engine is very high.
Good conductor of electricity needed to carry electricity into combustion
chamber to produce spark.
Disadvantages of Nickel:
Subject to corrosion in engine which means they only last a short time
because nickel is higher in reactivity than platinum.
Idea that this leads to reduced efficiency, unburnt petrol and air pollution.
Advantages of Platinum:
Less susceptible to corrosion (not corroded) because platinum is very low in reactivity.
Idea that this improves efficiency and reduces pollution.Higher melting point than nickel to withstand the high temperatures in the combustion chamber.
Last a lot longer than nickel electrodes due to low reactivity.
(Sensible extension here could be longer service intervals etc.)Good conductor of electricity as for nickel.
Extension here could be linked to the idea that the conductivity
does not deteriorate as quickly as nickel.)
Disadvantages of Platinum:
Cost which will make the sparking plug more expensive.
A good candidate might justify cost by longer life, better fuel consumption and less pollution.

Q6.
Photographic film often contains silver bromide. Silver bromide is changed by light to form silver
which appears as a black solid. This darkens the photographic film.A photographic film can be made by
coating thin transparent plastic with a gel containing silver bromide.
The main steps in making this photographic film are as follows:
Step 1
Gelatine is dissolved in warm water to make a solution.
Step 2
is
Compound A, a soluble compound which contains bromide ions,
dissolved into this solution.
Step 3
The lights are turned out in the darkroom.
Step 4
is
Compound B, a soluble compound which contains silver ions,
dissolved in water.
Step 5
The solution of compound B is added to the solution
containing
compound A and gelatine. Solid silver bromide is formed.
Step 6
The warm mixture is poured onto thin, transparent plastic film.
Step 7
The mixture sets to form a gel containing solid silver bromide.

There is a brief description of the electrolysis of aluminium oxide.
Level 1 (1–2 marks)
There is some description of the electrolysis of aluminium oxide.
Level 2 (3–4 marks)
There is a clear, balanced and detailed description of the
electrolysis of aluminium oxide.
Level 3 (5–6 marks)
examples of the chemistry points made in the response
•
aluminium oxide is melted / made liquid
•
aluminium ions are attracted to the negative electrode
•
at the negative electrode aluminium is formed or
aluminium ions gain electrons
•
oxide ions are attracted to the positive electrode
•
oxygen is formed at the positive electrode or oxide
ions lose electrons
•
the oxygen reacts with carbon to make carbon dioxide or
carbon dioxide formed at positive electrode.
(b)
there are delocalised electrons / free electrons / electrons
which move within the aluminium / metallic structure
1
therefore these electrons are able to carry the current / charge
1
if the candidates use the terms covalent / ionic / molecules /
intermolecular incorrectly in the answer this will limit the mark to a
maximum of 1.

M6.
(a)
any two from:
•
outer shell electrons / electrons in
highest energy level (in metals)
•
electrons are delocalised / sea of electrons
•
electrons are free or electrons move around
or electrons are free to flow or electrons
attracted to positive terminal
•
electrons carry charge / current or electrons
form the current / electrons transfer charge / electrons
pass charge
ignore electrons carry electricity
ignore reference to positively charged atoms / ions
if they state electrons have +ve charge = max 1 mark
if they state covalent bonding then max 1 mark

(b)
ions can move / are attracted to electrode
accept ions are free
allow ‘they’ for ions
or
attracted to named electrode
or
ions are charged or ions form / carry
the current or ions form the charge

(c)
(i)
electron gain
ignore hydrogen reduces charge

(ii)
sodium hydroxide or NaOH or caustic soda
do not allow hydroxide alone

(iii)
2Cl– ─ 2 e– → Cl2
or
2Cl– → Cl2 + 2 e–
allow fractions or multiples
allow e or e–
do not allow e+
