solution slowly turns cloudy.

The diagram shows a method of measuring the rate of this reaction.

A student used this method to study how changing the concentration of the sodium thiosulfate
solution alters the rate of this reaction.

Advantages of using hydrogen:

• its combustion only produces water


• combustion of hydrogen does not produce carbon dioxide or does not contribute to
climate change
• petrol requires much more oxygen to burn so partial combustion is possible
producing carbon monoxide
• combustion of hydrogen does not produce any particulates or does not contribute to
global dimming
• petrol comes from a non-renewable source or there are renewable ways of
producing hydrogen, eg electrolysis of water.

Disadvantages of using hydrogen:

• hydrogen has to be stored at high pressure or risk of explosion or larger volume


needed for storage.
• much less energy produced from the combustion of hydrogen or need to refuel more
often
• most methods of producing hydrogen need fossil fuels.

(b) because carbon dioxide is produced
accept gas is produced
1

carbon dioxide / gas escapes, therefore the mass of the


flask and contents decreases
1

(c) (i) balance B


1

(ii) because during the experiment a gas / carbon


dioxide escapes from the flask
1

therefore the balance needs a high resolution to


measure the small changes in the mass
1

(d) the (marble) powder has a larger surface area than the
(marble) chips
1

therefore there would be more collisions with the acid particles


(within the same amount of time)

(b) any two from:

• particles gain energy or particles have more energy


allow have more activation energy

• particles move faster


allow they collide faster / quicker
ignore move / vibrate more

• collide more often


allow more collisions

• collide more energetically

• more of the collisions are successful


or more particles have the activation energy
NB more successful collisions alone = 1 mark
if particles are identified as electrons = max 1 mark
