(c)     In this question you will be assessed on using good English, organising information clearly and using specialist terms where apropriate.

There are millions of plastic bags in use. After use most of these plastic bags are buried in landfill sites. The amount sent to landfill could be reduced if the plastic bags: •        could be reused •        could be recycled by melting and making into new plastic products •        could be burned to release energy

Use the information above and your knowledge and understanding to give the positive and negative environmental impacts of using these methods to reduce the amount of plastic bags sent to landfill.

•        saves energy compared to producing plastic bags from crude oil

•        cuts down on CO2 emissions

•        less global warming

negative environmental impact

•        (to give / form / produce) short(er) chains / hydrocarbons or small(er) molecules or contains few(er) carbons

if wrong process named max 1 mark 2

M10.          (a)     (i)      by (fractional) distillation

accept a description of the distillation process (heat and how separation works) eg heat and condense accept boil / vapourise etc for heat

or

fractionation 1

(ii)     CO2

note the order of these products must be correct 1

H2O  

wrong way round = 1 mark 1

(b)     (i)      (hexane) has been broken down (into smaller hydrocarbons / molecules) 1

accept (thermal) decomposition / cracked / split / broken up owtte

(ii)                H          H            │          │            C      =   C            │          │            H          H

accept CH2 = CH

(iii)     water / hydrogen oxide / steam accept H

(c)     candidates must include both sugar cane and crude oil in their evaluation and both an advantage and a disadvantage to gain full marks. if they do not then the maximum mark is three

any four from:

advantages of using sugar

•        country has no wealth to buy (large quantities of) crude oil not ‘expensive’ alone

•        country has limited technological development

or

underdeveloped / third world country

•        able / suitable climate to grow sugar cane

•        enough land to grow sugar cane / land cannot be used to grow food / deforestation

•        sugar is a renewable source

or

crude oil is a non-renewable resource / finite resource / limited resources

•        CO2 / carbon neutral

advantages of using alkanes:

•        economic costs are low

•        continuous process

•        country has large oil resources

•        country has oil refineries / cracking plants

•        very pure product

•        faster process 4

M11.          (a)     not broken down by microorganisms or not bio-degradable

accept alternative answers such as: do not rot / corrode / fade / react with atmosphere etc any answers which imply the inertness or non-biodegradability of this plastic accept they don’t react, they are ‘inert’ ignore rusting do not accept weathering

1

Page 29 of 33

(b)     (i)      (have a) double bond or do not have maximum number of (hydrogen) atoms attached

accept can add / react with hydrogen accept can take part addition reactions do not accept it is a double bond do not accept additional reactions do not accept has ‘spare’ / ‘free’ bond do not accept alkene alone

1

(ii)     single bond between carbon atoms 1

         all atoms correct + 2 ‘linking’ bonds (linking bonds need not go through bracket)

1

         n moved to bottom right of bracket i.e. is below  way on the right first 2 marks are possible for chain structures accept [– CHCl–CH

2–]

n

1

(iii)     many molecules or many monomers 1

         joined / bonded / linked or form long chain molecules / large molecules or to form a long chain polymer

accept many alkenes or many (ethene) molecules do not accept many ethene alone etc.

to form a long polymer is not enough for 2nd mark

1

(iv)    no other substances formed (A + B → C)

allow because double bond breaks so other atoms can add allow one product only do not accept saturation occurs

M12.          (a)     C2H

4

1

             H H H H C C C H    H H H

Accept even if in wrong columns 1

(c)     (i)      polythene or poly(ethene) 1

(ii)     addition 1

[4]

 

M13.          (a)     B because it contains more of the light fraction) 1

          Quantitative answer e.g. B has 30%, A has 20% / 10% more / 1.5 times more

1

(b)     (i)     

1

(ii)     heat 1

         catalyst if neither mark gained allow cracking for 1 mark

1 [5]

M14.          (a)     (i)      heat / evaporate the crude oil / change to gas or vapour

do not accept heat with catalyst 1

cool / condense (hydrocarbons) allow small molecules at top and / or large molecules at bottom

1

at different temperatures / boiling points if the answer describes cracking ‘ no marks

1

(ii)     C4H

10

1

(b)                H      H      H                 │      │      │      H ─C ─   C ─   C ─ H            │      │      │            H      H      H

1

(c)     (i)      C5 to C

8 fraction are fuels or easier to burn or petrol (fraction)

accept C21 to C

24 fraction not useful as fuels

do not accept produce more energy 1

(ii)     C2H

4

do not accept C4H

8

1

(iii)     any three from:

•        use different / lighter crude oils

•        develop markets for low demand fractions

•        develop new techniques / equipment to use low demand fractions as fuels

•        cracking

•        convert low demand fractions to high demand fractions or bigger molecules to smaller molecules

•        develop alternative / bio fuels do not accept price
