Calcium, magnesium and radium are Group2 elements. Radium follows the same trends as the other members of Group 2. Identify the highest energy orbital which contains electrons in a calcium atom. Sketch the shape of this orbital. identity of highest energy orbital in Ca shape  Write the equation for the thermal decomposition of calcium nitrate. Suggest which of the Group2 nitrates, calcium, magnesium or radium, requires the highest temperature to decompose. Explain your answer. Predict what you would observe when aqueous radium chloride is added to aqueous sodiumsulfate. Do not refer to temperature changes in your answer. 25Mg is an isotope of magnesium. Determine the number of protons and neutrons in an atom of 25Mg . number of protons number of neutrons  State the full electronic configuration of an atom of 25Mg . A sample of magnesium contains three isotopes, 25Mg, 26Mg and X. The percentage abundance of the three isotopes is shown in Table 1.1. Table 1.1 isotope of Mg mass / a.m.u. percentage abundance / % X 78.99 25Mg 24.99 10.00 26Mg 25.98 11.01 The relative atomic mass, Ar, is calculated by comparing the average mass of the isotopes of an element to the unified atomic mass unit. Define the unified atomic mass unit. Calculate the mass of X. Use data from Table 1.1 and Ar = 24.31 in your calculation. Show your working.  mass of X =  State one similarity and one difference in the properties of these isotopes of magnesium. Explain your answer. Magnesium, Mg, burns in oxygen, O2. The activation energy, Ea, for this reaction is +148 kJ mol–1. State one observation when magnesium burns in oxygen. Do not refer to temperature changes in your answer. On : ● sketch a reaction pathway diagram for the reaction that occurs when Mg burns in O2 ● label the diagram to show the enthalpy change, ∆H, and the activation energy, Ea, for the reaction. enthalpy progress of reaction  Cold water reacts slowly with a piece of Mg to produce bubbles of H2. Cold water reacts rapidly with burning Mg to produce H2in an explosive mixture. Mg + 2H2O Mg(OH)2 + H2 Explain why the rate of reaction of cold water with burning magnesium is greater.

CompoundV is a liquid. V contains 77.2% carbon, 11.4% hydrogen and 11.4% oxygen by mass. V has a relative molecular mass of 280. Calculate the molecular formula of V. Show your working.  molecular formula of V = V contains two types of functional group: a carboxylic acid and an alkene. Describe a chemical test and observation which confirms the presence of a carboxyl functional group. A 3.196 g sample of Br2 reacts completely with 2.800 g of V. Calculate how many alkene functional groups are present in one molecule of V. Show your working.  number of alkene functional groups in V = W, X and Y have the same molecular formula, C5H10O. W, X and Y are added separately to different reagents. Observations for these reactions are described in Table4.1. Table 4.1 + 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine + alkaline I2+ Fehling’s reagent and warm W orange precipitate seen no change orange-red precipitate seen X orange precipitate seen yellow precipitate seen no change Y orange precipitate seen W, X and Y each contain a common functional group. Name the functional group that is present in all three compounds. State the formula of the yellow precipitate produced when X is added to alkaline I2. W could be one of four structural isomers. ● Draw the skeletal formulae for two possible structural isomers of W. ● Describe the type of structural isomerism shown. isomer 1 isomer 2 type of structural isomerism  Fig.5.1 shows the mass spectrum of ketone Z, C5H10O. % abundance m/e value Use the information in Fig.5.1 to suggest the formulae of the fragments with m/e peaks at 29 and 57. Deduce the identity of Z. m/e = 29 m/e = 57 identity of Z
