QUESTION 2

a)

INCLUSIONS

Reprecipitation- isolating the precipitate from its supernatant solution, dissolve it by heating in a
small portion of a suitable solvent then allow the solution to cool, reforming the precipitate.

OCCLUSIONS

digestion- maintaining the precipitate in equilibrium with its supernatant solution for an extended
time.

b)

Precipitate solubility , Temperature and Reactant concentrations

c)

GF = (FW Mn(NO3) / 1) / (FW Mn2S3 /2)

= (178.95 / 1)/ (205.98 /2)

= 2.00

Mass of Mn = GF x Mass of precipitate

= 2.00 x 0.2876g

=0.5752 g

%Mn = (Mass Mn/ Mass sample) X 100

= (0.5752 g / 0.6105g) X 100

=94.22 %

QUESTION3

a) The solvent level has to be below the starting line of the paper chromatography, otherwise
the spots will dissolve away.
b) N has 3 food colouring sample while S has 4 food colouring sample.
2 food colouring sample in N are same with S.
N does not have two of the four food colours in S.
S does not have one of the three food colours found in N.
c) I)C-> B-> A
ii) Because a polar compounds have higher intermolecular forces and become more strongly
eluting solvent and moving them further than non polar compound
