1(b) A student prepared six vitamin C solutions of different concentrations. They added
drops of iodine solution until each concentration of vitamin C solution remained blue-
black.
The experiment was repeated three times and the average number of drops of iodine
solution added was calculated for each concentration.
Table 1.1 shows the student’s results.
(iii) Using the data in Table 1.1, plot a line graph on the grid of the percentage vitamin C
concentration against the average number of drops of iodine solution added.
(iv) The student was given a health drink, D. It took seven drops of iodine solution to
change it to a blue-black colour.
Use the graph to estimate the vitamin C concentration in health drink D.
On the graph, show how you estimated the vitamin C concentration.

3(b) In a study, the colour of the cap of mushrooms growing in different temperatures
was recorded. The colour was determined using the scale shown in Fig. 3.2.

(i) Using the information in Table 2.1, calculate the percentage decrease in the average
root length when the concentration of sodium chloride was changed from 4 g per dm 3 to
6 g per dm3.
Give your answer to three significant figures.
Space for working.

(ii) Using the information in Table 1.1, calculate the percentage change in mass for the
potato cylinder in the 0.8 mol per dm3 sodium chloride solution.
Give your answer to one decimal place.
Space for working.

(iii) Using the data in Table 1.1 and your answer to 1(c)(ii), plot a line graph on the grid
of the concentration of sodium chloride solution against the percentage change in mass.
One axis has been started for you.
(iv) Estimate the concentration of sodium chloride solution at which there would be no
percentage change in the mass of the potato cylinder.
Show on your graph how you obtained your estimate.
