15 Q. Read the information about the periodic table. Portrait of Dimitri Mendeleev by Ilya Repin When the Russian chemist Dimitri Mendeleev put forward his periodic table in 869, the atomic structure of elements was unknown. Mendeleev tried to arrange the elements in a meaningful way based on their chemical reactions. First he put the elements in order of their increasing atomic weight. He then put elements with similar properties in the same column. However, he left gaps, and sometimes did not follow the order of increasing atomic weight for example, he placed iodine (atomic weight 27) after tellurium (atomic weight 28). Within a few years there was sufficient evidence to prove that Mendeleev was correct. Our modern periodic table has evolved from Mendeleev s table. The modern periodic table on the Data Sheet may help you to answer these questions. (a) (i) State why Mendeleev left gaps. () State why some elements were not placed in order of increasing atomic weight. () Page 5 of 28

18 any two suitable comparisons about the extent to which the iron wool glowed eg chlorine is more reactive than bromine because iron glowed more brightly with chlorine than bromine () eg bromine is more reactive than iodine because iron glowed with bromine but not with iodine () 2 [7] M4. (a) the conclusion is that chlorine and bromine are more reactive than iodine any suitable comparisons about the extent to which the iron wool glowed eg because iron glowed with chlorine and bromine but did not glow with iodine (b) iodine is less reactive than bromine because the iodine (atom) is bigger or outer electrons (level / shell) further from the nucleus accept converse for bromine therefore the forces attracting an incoming electron are weaker or there is more shielding of the forces attracting an incoming electron therefore the outer electron gained less easily Max 2 if no mention of outer energy level / shell or of outer electron (s) [5] M5.

25 E7. In part (a) most candidates were able to explain why calcium, strontium and barium were a triad. Common incorrect responses were based on atomic number or similarity of chemical reactions. Far too many candidates in part (b) focused on Mendeleev and wrote about him leaving spaces for new elements. In part (c) This part was answered very well. A few named the products rather than described what is seen. Part (d)(i) was well answered by most candidates. The common error was to omit a reference to the outer shell of electrons. In part (d) this was the second poorest attempted question on the paper. There was little appreciation that transition elements (generally) have the same number of outer shell electrons or that an inner shell was being filled. Many candidates had vague ideas about overlapping shells and stated a variety of numbers of electrons in the outer shell even suggesting it was full. Other candidates based their explanations on physical properties, particularly conductivity and delocalised electrons. The term orbital has a specific meaning in chemistry and is not equivalent to shell, orbit or energy level. A majority of candidates in part (d)(iii) were able to gain credit for explaining why lithium is less reactive than potassium, although many preferred to explain why potassium is more reactive than lithium! In a question such as this, a comparison is required so it is essential to include comparative terms such as more, closer, stronger or easier. Simply saying easy, close or strong is insufficient. Candidates should be careful not to say that lithium has fewer outer shells when they mean fewer shells. A significant minority of candidates still persist in writing about magnetic, gravitational or bonding attractions, and did not gain the second marking point. E8. Generally, this question was well attempted. Part (d) proved to be difficult for many candidates. E9. Parts (a) and (d) were answered quite well, the other parts less so. (a) (b) Most candidates knew why chlorine is added to drinking water. However, candidates need to say that chlorine kills bacteria rather than just removes bacteria. Weaker candidates simply stated it was to clean the water or thought it softened the water. Less than half of the candidates knew that bromine water was decolourised. It does not go clear and neither does it become discoloured. (c) (i) Only the best candidates were able to complete and balance the equation. Most candidates had no idea what the products of the reaction were, and charges were frequently omitted/added even when the products formulae were correct. The large majority of the candidates were unable to describe the effect of chlorine on bromide ions. Many candidates thought that a precipitate formed or that there was an effervescence. Page 25 of 28

26 (d) (i) The majority of candidates knew that these elements have the same number of outer electrons (7) or need one electron to gain a complete outer shell of electrons. Chlorine and bromine do not have a similar number of outer electrons. An excellent discriminator as usual, and some excellent answers were seen. In a question such as this, a comparison is required so it is essential to include comparative terms such as more/most, closer/closest, stronger/strongest or easier/easiest. Simply saying easy/easily, close or strong/strongly is insufficient. Candidates needed to mention outer electron or outer energy level or outer shell somewhere in their answer to receive full credit. Some candidates suggested that a bromine atom loses an electron less easily. Others wrote about bromine having more outer shells than chlorine. Some candidates thought that intermolecular, magnetic or gravitational forces hold the electrons to the nucleus, while others referred to the strength of the bond between electron and nucleus. The third marking point proved elusive for many who often concluded their answer with the words therefore bromine is less reactive rather than therefore bromine gains an electron less easily. (e) A quite discriminating question. (i) Less than half the candidates knew that a white precipitate/solid was formed when silver nitrate solution was added to a solution containing chloride ions. Simply saying that the solution goes white or milky is insufficient. Even fewer candidates knew that a pale yellow (or cream) precipitate was formed with bromide ions. Candidates should be aware that a yellow precipitate is formed when silver nitrate solution is added to a solution containing iodide ions. E0. Generally this question was quite well answered. Part (b)(i) and (b)(iii) were least well answered although the majority of candidates gained the marks. E. Part (a)(i) was well answered by all but the weakest candidates. Part (a) was well done by most candidates but some confused physical and chemical properties, or simply said they were placed in proton number order without comment. In (b)(i) most candidates linked group number to the number of outer electrons and many also linked the periods to the number of energy levels (shells) or stated that the table was arranged in increasing atomic (proton) number order. However, many seemed not to realise that three marks required three pieces of information. Elements in the same group do not have the same number of outer shells and neither do they have the same number of atoms in the outer shell. Many candidates were careless in the use of language and referred to moving along a group and moving down a period. Others referred to placing the elements in order of increasing atomic mass. In part (b) 40% of the candidates correctly reasoned that it would mean splitting a proton or an electron. The popular incorrect response was that gaps hadn t been left or that there is no space for another element. Page 26 of 28

27 There were some excellent answers were seen from the more able candidates in part (c). As usual in a question such as this, a comparison is required so it is essential to include comparative terms such as more/most, closer/closest, stronger/strongest or easier/easiest. Simply saying easy, close or strong is insufficient. Candidates needed to mention outer electron/outer energy level somewhere in their answer to receive full credit. Some candidates thought the important factor was that fluorine only needed to gain one electron, while other candidates thought fluorine lost an electron and suggested group 7 elements became more reactive down the group. Other candidates thought that intermolecular/magnetic/gravitational forces held the electrons to the nucleus. Page 27 of 28
