Re: Aqa a2 chem5 19th june 2012The process is exothermic. If the heat wasn't lost to the surroundings, then the ice would melt. If the heat is lost to environment, it cant raise the temp, and thus it stays at 0.(Original post by masterhr1)
yes, but how does losing heat mean it will stay at 0oC -

Re: Aqa a2 chem5 19th june 20123NaOH + H3PO4 ---> Na3PO4 + 3H20(Original post by undertaker1)
on the jan 10 paper could someone please question 8c please.
i dont understand how to get the 3:1 ratio?
That should help -

Re: Aqa a2 chem5 19th june 2012Energy is given out when bonds are formed between water molecules, as the state changes from liquid to solid. All the energy is given out to form the bonds and not change the temperature.(Original post by masterhr1)
Does this question even make sense:
The freezing of water is an exothermic process. Give one reason why the temperature of a sample of water can stay at a constant value of 0C when it freezes. -

Re: Aqa a2 chem5 19th june 2012Yes. Or you can learn the half equations and then work out the full one.(Original post by Amy-Rose)
For the catalysts and autocatalysis reactions, do you just learn the equations? (like Mn3+ and Fe3+) -

Re: Aqa a2 chem5 19th june 2012Ah yes, its easy enough to work it out from the half equations. Which do we need to know then? The contact process, Fe2+ in S2O8 2- + I-, and Mn2+ in permanganate and C2O4 2-? They're the only catalysis half equations I have..(Original post by Bugsy)

Re: Aqa a2 chem5 19th june 2012I seem to remember one hexaaqua ion doing that, maybe cobalt. adding a base will always form a precipitate first though so redox(Original post by IamBeowulf)
When the hexaaqua complexes are protonated by water is it an equilibria reaction or a normal one?
eg
[Cu(H2O)6]^2+ + H20 ---> [Cu(H2O)5(-OH)]^+ + H30+ -

Re: Aqa a2 chem5 19th june 2012Yeah I think for the catalysis that's all, of course there are other's such as the dichromate one and such but they aren't in the catalysis topic (I don't think)(Original post by Amy-Rose)

Re: Aqa a2 chem5 19th june 2012Wow im finding it so hard to revise ligand substitution from the book.. Theres just a bunch of reactions/equations and I just have to memorise them? If thats the case this is damn hard lol and I think ima fail hard.
Or is there any logic behind the reactions to remember them? The metals with like nh3 and all that stuff -

Re: Aqa a2 chem5 19th june 2012do you want a medal?(Original post by Angry cucumber)
Just got 81/100 on June '10
Delighted with that!!!
Just damn colours let me down.... dropped the majority of my marks on it!!

Re: Aqa a2 chem5 19th june 2012Most, but not all. There are some exceptions.(Original post by shuaib786)
I just wanted to ask you that are all the reactions involving metal complexes with ligands are an equilibria reactions???
Adding hydroxide I believe is deprotonation and is NOT in equilibria

Re: Aqa a2 chem5 19th june 2012So how do you know if they are not???(Original post by wibletg)

Re: Aqa a2 chem5 19th june 2012Can anyone help me with the conventional cell representation. I understand it for most reactions but when there's a reaction say MnO4- + 8H+ + 5e- --> Mn2+ + 4H2O , how exactly do you fit this all into one side of the cell diagram :s I've seen it done in many different ways so if anyone knows the proper (the one the ms accepts) I'd much appreciate it
Which are all the others?
