2 9701/05/O/N/05 1 FB 1 is 0.200 mol dm–3 propanoic acid, C2H5CO2H. FB 2 is 0.100 mol dm–3 sodium hydroxide, NaOH. S is an organic liquid which is immiscible (forms two separate layers) with water. On shaking FB 1 with the solvent S, propanoic acid is transferred from the aqueous layer to the organic layer until equilibrium is reached. You are to investigate this equilibrium in the following experiments. (a) Preparation of the equilibrium mixtures Experiment A Use a measuring cylinder to place 50 cm3 of FB 1 into the stoppered conical flask labelled A. Use the measuring cylinder to add 20 cm3 of S to the flask and replace the stopper. Experiment B Use the measuring cylinder to place 50 cm3 of FB 1 into the stoppered conical flask labelled B. Use the measuring cylinder to add 40 cm3 of S into the flask and replace the stopper. One of the two following equilibrium mixtures is established. I C2H5CO2H(aqueous layer) C2H5CO2H(organic layer) For this equilibrium, Kc = [C2H5CO2H(organic layer)] [C2H5CO2H(aqueous layer)] II C2H5CO2H(aqueous layer) (C2H5CO2H)2 (organic layer) For this equilibrium, Kc = [C2H5CO2H(organic layer)] [C2H5CO2H(aqueous layer)] You are to determine which of the two Kc expressions is supported by the results of your experiment. For Examiner’s Use © UCLES 2005 Shake the flasks vigorously for 3 minutes, then leave to stand. START YOUR ANSWER TO QUESTION 2, but shake the flasks vigorously for 1 minute after each 5 minutes, returning to Question 1 after a minimum of 15 minutes or when you have completed Question 2. You are attempting to establish an equilibrium mixture of propanoic acid dissolved in water and in solvent S in each flask. 1–2

3 9701/05/O/N/05 [Turn over (b) Titration of Flask A Allow the layers to separate after the final shake. Fill the burette with FB 2. Tilt the flask and carefully pipette 10 cm3 of the lower (aqueous) layer into a titration flask. Place your finger over the top of the pipette, or fit pipette filter if available, before lowering into the solution. This will minimise the amount of the top layer that enters the pipette. Withdraw 10 cm3 of the lower layer. Add two drops of phenolphthalein indicator and titrate with FB 2 until a faint permanent pink colour is obtained. Repeat the titration two more times and record the results of each titration in Table 1.1 below. Table 1.1 Titration of Flask A [3] + [3] Summary 10 cm3 of the aqueous layer in Flask A react with ……………. cm3 of FB 2. Show which results you used to obtain this volume of FB 2 by placing a tick (✔) under the readings in Table 1.1. (c) Titration of Flask B Titrate three 10 cm3 portions of the lower (aqueous) layer in the same way as for Flask A. Record the results of each titration in Table 1.2 below. Table 1.2 Titration of Flask B [1] + [2] Summary 10 cm3 of the aqueous layer in Flask B react with ……………. cm3 of FB 2. Show which results you used to obtain this volume of FB 2 by placing a tick (✔) under the readings in Table 1.2.

UNIVERSITY OF CAMBRIDGE INTERNATIONAL EXAMINATIONS GCE Advanced Level MARK SCHEME for the November 2005 question paper 9701 CHEMISTRY 9701/05 Paper 5 (Practical Test), maximum raw mark 30 This mark scheme is published as an aid to teachers and students, to indicate the requirements of the examination. It shows the basis on which Examiners were initially instructed to award marks. It does not indicate the details of the discussions that took place at an Examiners’ meeting before marking began. Any substantial changes to the mark scheme that arose from these discussions will be recorded in the published Report on the Examination. All Examiners are instructed that alternative correct answers and unexpected approaches in candidates’ scripts must be given marks that fairly reflect the relevant knowledge and skills demonstrated. Mark schemes must be read in conjunction with the question papers and the Report on the Examination. • CIE will not enter into discussion or correspondence in connection with these mark schemes. CIE is publishing the mark schemes for the November 2005 question papers for most IGCSE and GCE Advanced Level and Advanced Subsidiary Level syllabuses and some Ordinary Level syllabuses.
