  2.  
    p1 ans 8a
  1.

    Not steady                             steady (any 2)
  1. KOH(aq) + HNO3(aq) → KNO3(aq) + H2O(l) 
    p1 ans12

      2. Causes pollution since it is non-biodegradable
  3.  
    1. The volume of a fixed mass of a gas is inversely proportional to its pressure at constant temperature 1mk. This is because particles of a gas are widely apart hence can be compressed 1mk

      2. High temperature ½ mk Specify
  1. In diamond each carbon atom is covalently bonded to four other carbon atoms in a rigid giant atomic structure 1mk. In graphite each carbon atom is covalently bonded to their other carbon atoms in layers ½mk. The layers are held together by weak Vander walls forces which are easily broken ½mk
  2.  
    1.  
      1. An element is a substance which cannot be split into any simpler substance by any chemical process
      2. Atomic number is the number of protons in an atom 
    2. T2(SO4)3
  3.  
    1. Experiment 1 ½ mk
      Experiment 3 ½ mk
    2. In experiment 1, solid potassium carbonate has no free ions to conduct electricity 1mk
       In experiment 3, sugar consists of molecules which do not conduct electricity 1mk
  1.  
    1. Cotton / wool / silk 1mk
    2. Are strong than natural fibres
      Not easily affected by chemicals
      Last longer / are durable
      Are cheaper (Any 1)
  1.
