Q1.

(a) atomic weight


1

(b) (because) properties were similar


or
(because) iodine has similar / same properties as bromine / chlorine /
fluorine
allow symbols
1

(c) solid
1

(d) scale on the y-axis up to 180


ignore scale beyond 180
1

bar for sodium at 98 (oC)


allow a tolerance of ± half a small
square
1

bar for potassium at 63 (oC)


allow a tolerance of ± half a small
square
1
max 2 marks if reference to incorrect
particle / bonding

Q2.
(a) (i) Na
allow sodium / phonetic spelling
if more than one answer is given apply list principle
1

(ii) Fe
allow iron / phonetic spelling
if more than one answer is given apply list principle
1

(iii) Na or S
allow sodium or sulfur / sulphur / phonetic spelling
if more than one answer is given apply list principle
1

(b) (i) any three from:


• effervescence / fizzing or bubbles or gas produced
do not allow incorrectly named gas
• sodium melts or turns into a ball
• sodium moves (on the surface)
• steam / mist / vapour is produced
ignore heat / temperature / flame / spark
• sodium gets smaller / disappears
allow dissolves
• colour of indicator is darker / more intense near the
sodium
Must be linked to near the sodium.

Q3.
(a) any two from:
• hydrogen is in a group
allow converse arguments
allow hydrogen is with the halogens
• only seven groups
• no group 0
allow no noble gases
• halogens are in Group 1
allow fluorine and / or chlorine are in Group 1
• other elements are in one group higher
allow one example of this
• transition metals included in groups
allow one example, eg, iron in same group as
aluminium
2

(b) similar properties occur at regular intervals


1

(c) some elements appeared to be in the wrong group


1

(when) the elements were arranged in order of relative atomic mass


allow (so) he placed them into groups with similar
properties
1

(d) most elements are mixtures of isotopes


1

(so) should be arranged in order of atomic number


1

(e)
1
1

[10]

Q1.
(a) chlorine>bromine>iodine

table shows that chlorine displaces bromine and iodine


1

and bromine displaces iodine


1

(b) Level 3 (5–6 marks):


A relevant and coherent explanation of the trend in reactivity. The
response makes
logical links between the points raised and considers both the number of
energy levels
and the distance between the nucleus and the outer energy level.

Level 2 (3–4 marks):


Statements that are linked to provide a simple explanation of the trend in
reactivity using either the number of energy levels or the distance between
the nucleus and the outer energy level.

Level 1 (1–2 marks):


Simple statements made about the halogens or the trend in reactivity.

0 marks:
No relevant comment

Indicative content

Simple statements / descriptions


• have 7 electrons in the outer shell
• need to gain an electron
• form ions with a -1 charge
• halogens further down the group are less reactive (or vice
versa)
• halogens further down the group have more shells or energy
levels (or vice versa)

Linked statements / explanations


• have 7 electrons in the outer shell so need to gain an electron
to have the electronic structure of a noble gas
• halogens further down the group are less reactive because
they have more shells or energy levels (or vice versa)
• halogens further down the group have more shells or energy
levels so less attractive force on the incoming electron (or vice
versa)
• halogens further down the group have more shells or energy
levels so more ‘shielding’ against the incoming electron (or vice
versa)
• outer electrons of halogens further down group are further
away from the attractive force of the nucleus (or vice versa)
• an electron is less easily gained because there are more shells
or energy
levels (or vice versa)
• an electron is less easily gained because the outer electrons
are further from
the attractive force of the nucleus (or vice versa)
