Box
0 1 A A group of students investigated the effect of temperature on the rate
of reaction between sodium thiosulfate and hydrochloric acid. The
reaction produces a precipitate of sulfur, which makes the solution
cloudy. Explain why the solution becomes cloudy as the reaction
progresses.
(2 mark)
0 1 B The students used the following method:
1. Measure 50 cm³ of sodium thiosulfate solution into a
conical flask.
2. Add 10 cm³ of hydrochloric acid to the flask and start a
timer.
3. Observe the time it takes for a black cross under the flask to
disappear.
o Suggest one improvement to ensure accurate results.
(1 marks)
o What is the dependent variable in this experiment?
(1 marks)
o Tick one box: Which factor could be controlled to ensure a fair test?
o Volume of hydrochloric acid
o Concentration of sodium thiosulfate solution
o Temperature of the reaction mixture
