Write your answers on the separate answer paper provided.
10 Either
(a) When the enzyme amylase is added to starch solution under suitable conditions, starch
molecules are quickly broken down to maltose. Starch reacts with iodine to give a dark
blue/black colour, but maltose does not react with iodine.
(i) Use this information to design an experiment to investigate the effect of an increase in
temperature on the activity of amylase. Describe clearly how you would carry out the
experiment and give the results you would expect. [7]
(ii) Explain why an increase in temperature has an effect on the enzyme activity. [3]
Or
(b) Cigarette smoking is associated with an increased risk of coronary heart disease.
(i) State other health problems that are thought to be caused by cigarette smoking and
suggest what measures might be taken by government to reduce the harmful effects of
smoking on health. [5]
(ii) Describe coronary heart disease. Suggest other factors, in addition to cigarette smoking,
that contribute to this disease. [5]
11 Either
(a) (i) List the gases that are found in normal air, and give its approximate composition by
percentage volume.
Give examples of the uses of two of the gases present in the air. [6]
(ii) Name one major pollutant of air.
State the source of this pollutant and describe the problems that it causes. [4]
Or
(b) (i) Describe how the unsaturated hydrocarbons called alkenes are manufactured and
explain why they are useful industrial chemicals. [5]
(ii) Construct an equation for the formation of poly(ethene) and describe some uses of this
polymer. [5]

12 Either
(a) (i) Describe how you would show that a bar magnet will induce an electric current in a coil
of copper wire.
State two factors that affect the magnitude of the induced e.m.f. [6]
(ii) Explain how the principle of electromagnetic induction is used in an a.c. generator. [4]
Or
(b) (i) List three ways of transfer of thermal energy. For each of these ways of energy transfer
state which take place in a solid, in a liquid, and in a gas. [4]
(ii) Fig. 12.1 shows the outline of a house in a hot country. Air conditioning maintains the
temperature in the house at 20 °C, whilst the temperature outside the house is usually
between 25 and 35 °C. The air conditioning has to be run continuously because heat
energy is transferred into the house.
