Sulfur chloride, SCl 2, is a liquid at room temperature. When SCl 2 is added to water, misty fumes are seen and a solution is made that turns universal indicator red. Identify the type of reaction that occurs when SCl 2 is added to water. Name a chloride of a different Period 3 element that is also a liquid at room temperature and produces misty fumes when added to water. A molecule of SCl 2 contains two S–Cl covalent bonds. Complete the dot-and-cross diagram in to show the arrangement of the outer electrons in a molecule of SCl 2. Use × to show electrons from the chlorine atoms. Use ● to show electrons from the sulfur atom. Cl Cl S Predict the shape of, and bond angle in, a molecule of SCl 2 by using VSEPR theory. shape bond angle Solid magnesium nitride, Mg3N2, is a crystalline solid. Deduce the oxidation numbers of magnesium and nitrogen in magnesium nitride to complete Table 2.1. Table 2.1 oxidation number in Mg3N2 magnesium nitrogen Magnesium nitride reacts with an excess of water to produce ammonia and magnesium hydroxide only. Construct an equation to describe this reaction. Explain why the solution produced in the reaction in has a pH greater than 7. Refer to the products of the reaction in your answer. Boron nitride is a white solid that melts above 2900 °C. shows part of the lattice structure of a crystal of boron nitride. boron atom nitrogen atom van der Waals’ forces covalent bond Use to deduce the empirical formula of boron nitride. Suggest the identity of another crystalline solid that has atoms arranged in layers similar to that of solid boron nitride.

V shows stereoisomerism. V O O O Explain what is meant by stereoisomerism. Deduce the number of stereoisomers of V. Explain your reasoning. Deduce the molecular formula of V. Name all the functional groups present in V. shows two reactions involving V. W X V + reagent T reaction 1 + reagent U reaction 2 O O O OH O OH O O O Identify the role of reagent T for each functional group that reacts in reaction 1. Suggest the identity of reagent U in reaction 2. Both functional groups in one molecule of Y react with an inorganic reagent to form one molecule of Q and one molecule of methanol, CH3OH, as shown in . inorganic reagent Y Q + CH3OH O O O Part of the mass spectrum for Q is shown in . Only peaks with m / e greater than 198 are shown. 198 199 200 x m / e relative abundance Calculate the relative abundance, x, of the peak at m / e = 201. Show your working. x = Q contains only hydroxyl functional groups. Complete Table 6.1 to show the observations that occur when 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine (2,4-DNPH reagent) is added to separate samples of Y and Q. Table 6.1 observation on addition of 2,4-DNPH reagent Y Q Under certain conditions, 0.0020 mol of Q reacts with an excess of sodium to produce a total of 44.8 cm3 of gas at s.t.p. Calculate the number of hydroxyl groups present in a molecule of Q. Show your working. number of hydroxyl groups = Use Table 6.2 to describe and explain two differences between the infrared spectrum of Y and Q in the region above 1500 cm–1.
