Q7. A student determined the relative molecular mass, Mr, of an unknown volatile liquid Y in an
experiment as shown in the diagram.
The student used a hypodermic syringe to inject a sample of liquid Y into a gas syringe in an
oven.
At the temperature of the oven, liquid Y vaporised.

The student’s results are shown in the table.

TGAS A-Level Chemistry

Mass of hypodermic syringe and liquid Y before

10.91 g
injection

Mass of hypodermic syringe and liquid Y after

10.70 g
injection

Oven temperature 98.1 °C

Atmospheric pressure 102 kPa

Increase in volume in gas syringe after injection

85.0 cm3
of Y

(a) Define the term relative molecular mass (Mr). Use the experimental results in the table to
determine the relative molecular mass of Y. The gas constant R = 8.31 J K–1 mol–1

(b) Some of the liquid injected did not evaporate because it dripped into the gas syringe
nozzle outside the oven.

Explain how this would affect the value of the Mr of Y calculated from the experimental
results.

Q8. This question is about a titration. A student dissolves an unknown mass of sodium hydroxide in
water to make 200 cm3 of an aqueous solution.A 25.0 cm3 sample of this sodium hydroxide solution is
placed in a conical flask and is titrated with 0.150 mol dm–3 sulfuric acid. The equation for this reaction is
shown.
2 NaOH(aq) + H2SO4(aq) → Na2SO4(aq) + 2 H2O(l)

The table shows the results of the titrations.

Titration Rough 1 2 3

Final reading / cm3 20.75 40.35 21.05 40.60

Initial reading / cm3 0.00 20.75 1.20 21.05

Titre / cm3 20.75 19.60 19.85 19.55

(a) Calculate the mass of sodium hydroxide used to make the original solution.

Mass of sodium hydroxide _______________ g

(5)

(b) The student uses a funnel to fill the burette with sulfuric acid before starting the titration.
After filling, the student forgets to remove the funnel from the top of the burette. Suggest
why this might affect the titre volume recorded.
