6 2 AO1a
Level 3 All stages are covered and the explanation of each stage
2 AO2a Stage 1: Electrons round P
5?6 marks is generally correct and virtually complete.
2 AO2b ? P has 5 electrons in the outside shell
? With 3 electrons from 3 fluorine, there are a total
Answer is communicated coherently and shows a logical
of 8 electrons in outside shell
progression from stage 1 to stage 2 then stage 3.
? so 3 bond pairs, 1 non-bond pair
Level 2 3?4 marks
All stages are covered but the explanation of each stage may be incomplete or may contain inaccuracies OR two stages are covered and the explanations are generally correct and virtually complete.
Stage 2: Electron pair repulsion theory
? Electron pairs repel as far as possible ? Lone pair repels more than bonding pairs Stage 3: Conclusions
Answer is mainly coherent and shows progression from stage 1 to stage 3.
? Therefore, tetrahedral / trigonal pyramidal shape ? With angle of 109(.5)? decreased to 107?
Level 1 1?2 marks
Two stages are covered but the explanation of each stage may be incomplete or may contain inaccuracies, OR only one stage is covered but the explanation is generally correct and virtually complete.
Level 0 0 marks
Answer includes isolated statements but these are not presented in a logical order or show confused reasoning.
Insufficient correct chemistry to gain a mark.

increases
Therefore, the attraction between the nucleus and electrons increases 1
AO1a AO1a Can only score M2 if M1 is correct
02.2 S8 molecules are bigger than P4 molecules
Therefore, van der Waals / dispersion / London forces between molecules are stronger in sulfur

AO2f
Partial pressures = mol fraction ? ptotal pCO2 = mol fraction ? ptotal = 0.14 ? 500/2.28 = 30.7 kPa pH2 = mol fraction ? ptotal = 0.42 ? 500/2.28 = 92.1 kPa
pCH3OH = mol fraction ? ptotal = 0.86 ? 500/2.28 = 188.6 kPa pH2O = mol fraction ? ptotal = 0.86 ? 500/2.28 = 188.6 kPa

AO2f M3 is for partial pressures of both reactants
Alternative M3 =
ppCO2 = 0.0614 ? 500 ppH2 = 0.1842 ? 500

AO2f M4 is for partial pressures of both products
Alternative M4 =
Stage 3: Equilibrium constant calculation Kp = pCH3OH ? pH2O / pCO2 ? (pH2)3
ppCH3OH = 0.3772 ? 500 ppH2O = 0.3772 ? 500

AO2f
Hence Kp = 188.6 ? 188.6 / 30.7 ? (92.1)3 = 1.483 ? 10?3 = 1.5 ? 10?3
