3 © UCLES 2010 0654/51/M/J/10 [Turn over For Examiner's Use 1 Some plants show differences between a leaf growing in a sunny area (sun leaf), and a leaf growing in a shaded area (shade leaf) of the plant. (a) (i) You are supplied with two leaves, labelled sun leaf and another leaf labelled shade leaf. Make drawings of the two leaves in the spaces provided to show the difference in size. sun leaf shade leaf [2] length of sun leaf = mm length of shaded leaf = mm [2] (ii) Measure the maximum length of each leaf on your drawing, excluding the petiole (stalk). Write your measurements below each diagram. (b) One leaf has a larger surface area than the other. Suggest an advantage to the leaf with the larger surface. [1]

Include the following features; thickness of leaf, number of palisade cells, size of air spaces. [4]

5 © UCLES 2010 0654/51/M/J/10 [Turn over For Examiner's Use (ii) Study the differences, shown in Fig.1.1 between the sun leaf and the shade leaf. Choose one difference and explain how this difference affects the rate of photosynthesis, in the leaves. difference explanation [2] (iii) The sun leaf usually has a thicker cuticle than the shade leaf. The cuticle is a waxy layer covering the leaf. Suggest an advantage that this thicker cuticle gives to the sun leaf. [1] (d) (i) You are going to calculate the magnification of the leaf section in Fig. 1.1. Measure the length of the line in XY in Fig. 1.1. length = mm [1] (ii) The real length of the line XY is 0.2 mm. Use this fact and your answer to d(i) to calculate the magnification of the leaf in Fig. 1.1. magnification = [2]

6 © UCLES 2010 0654/51/M/J/10 For Examiner's Use 2 You are going to make some measurements on a test-tube before using it to determine the density of liquid P. (a) Measure and record the length, l, and the internal diameter, D, of the test-tube. l = mm D = mm Using these measurements, calculate the volume of the tube using the formula D 2 π × × l 2 volume of test-tube = mm3 [3] (b) (i) Hold the test-tube in the glass beaker labelled water and add dry sand to the tube until it floats with its open end about 10 mm above the surface. Place a rule in the water beside the tube and measure the depth, d1 from the water surface to the bottom of the test-tube. See Fig. 2.1. You may need to hold the tube upright to do this. Record this value, d1 in Table 2.2 on page 7. ruler test-tube sand water d1 Fig. 2.1 (ii) Remove the test-tube from the water and wipe the outside, taking care not to lose any sand. Do not let water splash into the test-tube. Place the test-tube in the beaker labelled liquid P and as before, measure the depth, d2. Record this value, d2 in the first line of Table 2.2. (iii) Remove the test-tube and wipe the outside. Empty out a small amount of sand so that it floats in the water with the open end about 12 or 13 mm above the surface. Measure and record d1, the new depth in Table 2.2.

7 © UCLES 2010 0654/51/M/J/10 [Turn over For Examiner's Use As before, wipe the outside of the test-tube and transfer it to the liquid P. Measure and record the new depth d2 in Table 2.2. (iv) Repeat the process with the tube floating about 2 or 3 mm higher in water each time, until you have five sets of readings of d1 and d2. Record all your values in Table 2.2. Table 2.2 d1 in water / mm d2 in liquid P / mm [3] (c) On the grid provided on page 8 (Fig. 2.2), plot a graph of d1 (vertical axis) against d2. Draw the best straight line through your points.

8 © UCLES 2010 0654/51/M/J/10 For Examiner's Use [4] Fig. 2.2 (d) Calculate the gradient of the line, indicating on your graph the values chosen to enable you to do this. The gradient is numerically equal to the density of liquid P in grams per cubic centimetre. gradient of line = [3]

9 © UCLES 2010 0654/51/M/J/10 [Turn over For Examiner's Use (e) Describe another method for finding the density of liquid P using a pipette or burette, a balance and a suitable container. You do not have to carry out the experiment. [2]

10 © UCLES 2010 0654/51/M/J/10 For Examiner's Use 3 X, Y and Z are solutions of the same acid but different concentrations. You will use alkali, solution A, to find which of the acid solutions is the most concentrated. You will also carry out tests to identify the acid. (a) Using the dropping pipette provided, and no other apparatus, estimate the volume of a single drop of liquid. volume of 1 drop = cm3 [1] (b) (i) Using the small measuring cylinder, place 5 cm3 of solution X in a test-tube. Add 2 drops of the indicator. Use the dropping pipette to add the alkali, A, a drop at a time, counting the drops, Shake the tube after each addition, until a pink colour is produced. Record the number of drops in Table 3.1. (ii) Repeat the procedure using solution, Y, and then Z. Record the number of drops in Table 3.1. Table 3.1 solution number of drops X Y Z [3] (c) Which of the solutions is the most concentrated? Explain your answer. [1] (d) Place about 2 cm3 of solution X in a test-tube. Add a piece of magnesium. Test any gas given off with a glowing splint and a lighted splint. Record your observation and name the gas given off. glowing splint lighted splint name of the gas [3]

11 © UCLES 2010 0654/51/M/J/10 [Turn over For Examiner's Use (e) Place about 2 cm3 of solution X in a test-tube and add a few drops of aqueous silver nitrate. Record your observation and name the acid in solution X. observation name of the acid [2] (f) Place about 2 cm3 of solution A in a test-tube. Add a little solid ammonium chloride and warm gently. Test the gas with litmus paper. Record your observation and name the gas. observation name of the gas [2] (g) Describe a different experiment using magnesium ribbon to enable you to find out which of the acid solutions X, Y and Z is the most concentrated. You do not have to carry out the experiment. [3]
