In an experiment to study the rate for reaction between duralumin (an alloy of aluminium,
magnesium and copper) and hydrochloric acid, 0.5g of the alloy were reacted with excess
4M hydrochloric acid. The data in the table below was recoded.
Use it to answer the questions that follow.
a) i) On the grid provided, plot a graph of total volume of gas produced (vertical axis)
again time.
ii) From the graph, determine the volume of gas produced at the end of 2 ½ minutes.
b) Determine the rate of reaction between the 3rd and 4th minute.
c) Give a reason why some solid remained at the end of the experiment
d) Given that 2.5cm3 of the total volume of the gas was from the reaction between
magnesium and aqueous hydrochloric acid, calculate the percentage mass of aluminium
present in 0.5g of the alloy.
(Al = 27.0 and Molar gas volume = 24,000cm3 at 298k)
e) State two properties of duralumin that make it more suitable than aluminium in aeroplane
construction.
