2. Name the type of flame that was used in the above experiment
The diagrams below represent a list of apparatus which are commonly used in a chemistry laboratory:-
1. Give the correct order of the apparatus, using the letters only, to show the correct arrangement that can be used to prepare and investigate the nature of PH of a sample of onion solution
2. Name one chemical substance and apparatus that is needed in this experiment
1. When the air-hole is fully opened, the bunsen burner produces a non-luminous flame. Explain
2. Draw a labelled diagram of a non-luminous flame
1. What is a drug?
2. Give two drugs that are commonly abused by the youth.

(i) P ………………………………..…….. (ii) W ………………………………….….

The diagrams below are some common laboratory apparatus. Name each apparatus and state its use

The diagram below shows some parts of a Bunsen burner
Explain how the parts labelled T and U are suited to their functions
The diagram below shows the appearance of two pieces of paper placed in different parts of a non-luminous flame of a Bunsen burner and removed quickly before they caught fire.
1. What do the experiments show about the outer region of the flame?
2. From the above experiment, which part of the flame is better to use for heating? Give a reason
A crystal of copper (II) sulphate was placed in a beaker of water. The beaker was left standing for two days without shaking. State and explain the observations that were made.
Study the information in the table below and answer questions that follow. (Letters given are not real symbols)

Ions Electron arrangement Ionic radius (nm)
A⁺
B⁺
C²⁺ 2.8
2.8.8
2.8 0.95
0.133
0.065
Explain why the ionic radius of :-
1. B⁺is greater than that of A⁺
2. C²⁺is smaller than the of A⁺

1. F is place in the middle of the flame while G is placed at the upper region of the flame
2. Non – luminous flame
1. The laboratory gas burns in excess oxygen
  OR burns completely or produces CO₂ and H₂O only
  – No unburnt carbon remains
  OR No soot is formed/Produced.
1. a substance which when taken alters the body chemistry
2. – alcohol
  – Tobacco
1. A- Downward delivery /upward displacement of air
  B – Over water
2. A – Denser than air
1. P – Haxane
2. W – Water
Name – Mortar. √½
Use – Holding solid substances being crushed. √½

Name – Crucible √½
Use – Holding solid elements being heated strongly. √½
T – has a very small hole which releases the gas in small quantities/in form of a jet.
U – It is heavy for stability
1. It is very hot. (1 mk) √1
2. The upper√1 part. Because all the gases undergo complete √1 combustion. √1 (2 mks) 3
The crystal dissolved√ ½ . Blue color spreads in water √ ½ . The crystal broke up into smaller particles of copper (II) sulphate and diffused in all direction
1. W has more energy levels than S. √1
2. C has got (12) protons pulling the 10 electrons while A has 11 protons
  2 pulling 10 electrons. √1
