Remove the glass beaker from the candle, leave open to the air for one minute. • Repeat the experiment and again record the time for the flame to go out in Table 1.1. blow straw glass beaker bowl water Fig. 1.2 (b) Analysis of exhaled air. • Fill the glass beaker (or glass jar) with water and place into a bowl of water, inverted (see Fig. 1.2). • Using the straw or tube blow into the glass beaker, until it is full of exhaled air. • Light the candle. • Using your hand to prevent the loss of air from the glass beaker, transfer the beaker from the bowl and place it over the lit candle. Immediately start the clock. • Record in Table 1.1 the time taken in seconds for the flame to go out. • Repeat the experiment for exhaled air and again record the time taken for the flame to go out in Table 1.1.

This will allow atmospheric air to bubble through the lime water. ● Using a straw or tube, blow into tube B for 30 seconds. This will allow exhaled air to bubble through the limewater. Describe and explain the results observed in tube A and tube B. [3] (d) Describe an experiment to investigate the effect of exercise on breathing rate. Ensure that it is controlled, reliable and that you explain the need for all equipment. [5]

(a) Measure and record the width of the elastic band. width of band = mm [1] Push the pin into the cork leaving just enough showing to enable the elastic band to be hung from it. Clamp the cork firmly and adjust its position to give about 500 mm or more clearance from the bench top as shown in Fig. 2.1. cork and pin elastic band bench Fig. 2.1 (b) Hang the elastic band from the pin in such a way that masses can be attached, causing the band to stretch. If you have a carrier for the masses, this should be attached before the initial length of the elastic band is taken. If no carrier is available, you will need to tie various masses together using thread and tie these to the band. (i) Measure the length of the elastic band without any masses attached. Record this length in Table 2.1. (ii) Attach a mass of 100 g to the band. Measure and record its new length in Table 2.1. (iii) Continue to add masses of 100 g until you have a total of 500 g hanging from the band. Measure the length of the band after each addition and record the values in Table 2.1. (iv) Complete Table 2.1 by converting each mass into a force and also calculating the total increase in length of the band.

[1] (e) Draw a suitable best fit line using the points plotted, taking into account your answer in (d). [1] (f) Use your graph to find the total increase in length produced by a mass of 250 g. total increase in length = mm [1] (g) Use your graph to describe the relationship between the force applied and the total increase in length. [1] (h) A student suggested that the band may have stretched and would not return to its original form when the force is removed. Describe how you could test this suggestion. [2]

(a) Record the appearance of solid Z. appearance [1] (b) Place about one quarter of solid Z in a hard glass test-tube. Heat strongly. Test any gas given off with litmus paper. Record all your observations. action on litmus paper observations [2] (c) (i) Determine how to make a solution of Z. Make sure you keep some of the solid for test (d). Place about half of the solid Z into a fresh test-tube. Try to dissolve Z in cold water and if it does not dissolve, try cold dilute sulfuric acid and then hot dilute sulfuric acid. Stop as soon as you have found a way of dissolving Z. Note the colour of the solution. Keep the solution for further tests. You will need about 10 cm3 of solution. Z dissolves in colour of solution [2] (ii) Place about 2 cm3 of the solution from (c)(i) into a large test-tube. Add dilute sodium hydroxide until alkaline. Use litmus paper to check that you have added enough. Record your observation. observation [1] Now carefully bring the mixture to the boil and test any gas given off with litmus paper. Record your observation. observation [1]

Record your observation. observation [1] (d) Place a small amount of solid Z in a fresh test-tube. Dissolve in about 5 cm3 of dilute nitric acid. Use this solution to test for the chloride anion and the sulfate anion. Divide the solution into two portions before carrying out any tests.

It shows the basis on which Examiners were instructed to award marks. It does not indicate the details of the discussions that took place at an Examiners’ meeting before marking began, which would have considered the acceptability of alternative answers. Mark schemes must be read in conjunction with the question papers and the report on the examination. • Cambridge will not enter into discussions or correspondence in connection with these mark schemes. Cambridge is publishing the mark schemes for the May/June 2011 question papers for most IGCSE, GCE Advanced Level and Advanced Subsidiary Level syllabuses and some Ordinary Level syllabuses. www.XtremePapers.com
