Cambridge IGCSE Chemistry Practical Skills Workbook by Bryan Earl New - Unlocked-19

The document outlines a teacher demonstration experiment involving the diffusion of ammonia and hydrogen chloride gases in a glass tube. It poses questions related to the placement of solutions, the importance of conducting the experiment in a fume cupboard, and factors affecting the formation of a white solid. Additionally, it prompts evaluation of the procedure for stronger evidence regarding the experiment's outcomes.

1.

1 Rate of diffusion of ammonia and hydrogen chloride (Teacher demonstration)

4 Why are the solutions which produce the gases placed at the end of a glass tube, rather than just
placing them at opposite sides of a closed fume cupboard?

....................................................................................................................................................................................................

5 Why is it important that the experiment takes place in a fume cupboard?

....................................................................................................................................................................................................

6 Suggest how increasing the length of the tube would affect the time of formation of the white solid.

....................................................................................................................................................................................................

8 Does the ring form closer to the ammonia or hydrogen chloride end of the tube?

....................................................................................................................................................................................................

9 Explain why the white solid forms closer to this end of the tube.

....................................................................................................................................................................................................

....................................................................................................................................................................................................

Evaluation
Discuss how the procedure could be improved to give stronger evidence for your answers in questions 1 and 8.
