Part c· 3 steps
-
(i) Name the symbols labelled II, III and IV.
- II: Resistor
- III: Switch
- IV: Voltmeter
-
(ii) Draw a circuit diagram using all the symbols labelled I, II, III, IV and V. A circuit diagram should be drawn with the following components:
- A cell (I) connected in series with a switch (III), a resistor (II), and an ammeter (V).
- A voltmeter (IV) connected in parallel across the resistor (II).
-
(iii) If the circuit is closed and V reads 5 units with IV reading 15 units, determine the value of II in S.I. units.
Identify the given values.
The reading of V (ammeter) is the current, $I = 5 \text{ A}$. The reading of IV (voltmeter) is the potential difference, $V = 15 \text{ V}$. The component II is a resistor, $R$.Apply Ohm's Law.
Ohm's Law states that $V = IR$.Calculate the resistance.
$$ R = \frac{V}{I} $$ $$ R = \frac{15 \text{ V}}{5 \text{ A}} $$ $$ R = 3 \text{ } \Omega $$ The value of II is $\boxed{\text{3 } \Omega}$.

(i) Identify the solution that would have a pH value equal to:
- (α) 7; C (NaCl is a neutral salt)
- (β) 14. E (NaOH is a strong base, which would have a very high pH)
-
(ii) Identify the solution that can be classified as a/an:
- (α) strong acid; A (HCl is a strong acid)
- (β) neutral; C (NaCl is a neutral salt)
- (γ) weak base. D (NH₃ is a weak base)
-
(iii) Suggest the pH value of solution A. Solution A is 0.1 mol dm⁻³ HCl. Since HCl is a strong acid, it fully dissociates in water.
Determine the hydrogen ion concentration.
For 0.1 mol dm⁻³ HCl, $[H^+] = 0.1 \text{ mol dm}^{-3}$.Calculate the pH.
$$ pH = -\log[H^+] $$ $$ pH = -\log(0.1) $$ $$ pH = 1 $$ The suggested pH value of solution A is $\boxed{1}$.-
(iv) Identify two solutions in the table that will react to form salt and water. This describes a neutralization reaction between an acid and a base.
- Acids in the table: A (HCl), B (CH₃COOH)
- Bases in the table: D (NH₃), E (NaOH) Two solutions that will react to form salt and water are A and E (HCl and NaOH) or A and D (HCl and NH₃) or B and E (CH₃COOH and NaOH) or B and D (CH₃COOH and NH₃).
-
(v) What would be the colour of solution C upon addition of drops of universal indicator. Solution C is 0.1 mol dm⁻³ NaCl. Sodium chloride is a salt formed from a strong acid (HCl) and a strong base (NaOH), making it a neutral solution. Universal indicator turns green in a neutral solution (pH 7).
