IB - Chemistry PaperDi

The document describes two experiments where aqueous copper(II) sulfate is reacted with zinc and iron powder. Temperature measurements are taken during the reactions and plotted on a graph. The effects of variables like reaction time and metal type on temperature change are analyzed. A second experiment is designed to investigate how temperature impacts the rate of potassium permanganate diffusion in water.

Question 1: [21 MARKS]

Question 1a
A student investigated the reaction between aqueous copper(II) sulfate and two different
metals, zinc and iron. Two experiments were carried out.

Experiment 1
Using a measuring cylinder, 25 cm3 of aqueous copper(II) sulfate was poured into a
polystyrene cup. The temperature of the solution was measured. The timer was started and
the temperature was measured every half a minute for one minute.
At 1 minute, 5 g of zinc powder was added to the cup and the mixture stirred with the
thermometer. The temperature of the mixture was measured every half minute for an
additional three minutes.

S
Use the thermometer diagrams in the table to record the temperatures.
