What is the energy change represented by A? Explain how this reaction is Exothermic.

-energy needed to start the reaction -the reaction is exothermic because the energy level / value of products is less than the energy level / value of reactants

1 of 6

Explain how adding sodium carbonate softens permanent hard water.

-the carbonate ions react with calcium / magnesium ions, forming a precipitate of calcium carbonate / magnesium carbonate -therefore the water is softened because this removes the calcium / magnesium ions, which cause hardness, from the water

2 of 6

Explain how hard water filter containing carbon, silver and ion exchange resin softens permanent hard water.

-sodium / hydrogen ions are present in the ion exchange resin -therefore the water is softened because these ions take the place of calcium / magnesium ions that cause hardness in the water

3 of 6

When ethanol dissolves in water the solution formed is not alkaline. Why?

-ethanol has only covalent bonds in its molecule

4 of 6

What is the formula functional group for alcohols?

5 of 6

What equipment must you use during a titration?

• burette • acid • pipette used for alkali • indicator used (phenolphthalein) • white background / tile • beaker
