1. For parts of the free-response question that require calculations, clearly show the method used and the
steps involved in arriving at your answers. You must show your work to receive credit for your answer.
Examples and equations may be included in your answers where appropriate.
A student is given a sample of that contains a solid impurity that is soluble and colorless.
The student wants to determine the amount of in the sample and decides to use a
spectrophotometer. First, the student prepares a calibration graph by measuring the absorbances of
solutions of known concentrations. The graph is shown below.
(a) The student dissolves the entire impure sample of in enough distilled water to make
of solution. Then the student measures the absorbance of the solution and observes that it is
. Determine the concentration of in the solution.
Please respond on separate paper, following directions from your teacher.
(b) Calculate the number of moles of that were in the impure sample of .
Please respond on separate paper, following directions from your teacher.
(c) In addition to the number of moles of calculated in part , what other quantity must be
measured in order to calculate the mass percentage of in the impure sample of ?

(d) A particulate drawing of a single ion is shown in the following box. Draw two
molecules in the box to show the most likely orientation of molecules around the ion.
Please respond on separate paper, following directions from your teacher.
2. Use the information in the table below to respond to the statements and questions that follow. Your
answers should be in terms of principles of molecular structure and intermolecular forces.

above.
b. Which of the four molecules contains the shortest carbon-to-carbon bond? Explain.
c. A Lewis electron-dot diagram of a molecule of ethanoic acid is given below. The carbon atoms
in the molecule are labeled x and y, respectively. Identify the geometry of the arrangement of
atoms bonded to each of the following.
i. Carbon x
ii. Carbon y
d. Energy is required to boil ethanol. Consider the statement “As ethanol boils, energy goes into
breaking C−C bonds, C−H bonds, C−O bonds, and O−H bonds.” Is the statement true or false?
Justify your answer.
e. Identify a compound from the table above that is nonpolar. Justify your answer.
f. Ethanol is completely soluble in water, whereas ethanethiol has limited solubility in water.
Account for the difference in solubilities between the two compounds in terms of intermolecular
forces.
Please respond on separate paper, following directions from your teacher.
