(d) A student is provided with hydrated copper(II) nitrate, Cu(NO3)2•3H2O.
The student needs to prepare a standard solution of Cu(NO3)2•3H2O with a concentration of
0.200 mol dm–3. The student has access to usual laboratory apparatus and equipment.
Describe how the student would prepare 100.0 cm3 of this solution, giving quantities, apparatus
and method.

2 This question is about different areas of chemistry.
(a) Hydrogen gas is manufactured by the chemical industry from the reversible reaction of methane
and steam, shown below.
CH4(g) + H2O(g) 3H2(g) + CO(g) ΔH = +195 kJ mol–1
Average bond enthalpies are shown in the table.
Bond H–H O–H C≡O
Average bond enthalpy
+436 +464 +1077
/ kJ mol–1
(i) Why do all average bond enthalpies have a positive value?
..........................................................................................................................................................
..................................................................................................................................................... [1]
(ii) Determine the C–H bond enthalpy, in kJ mol–1, using the information above.
C–H bond enthalpy = ........................................... kJ mol–1 [3]
(iii) Hydrogen gas is being considered as a household fuel to replace methane.
The enthalpy change of formation, ΔfH, for H2O(l) is –285.8 kJ mol–1.
Determine the energy released when 60.0 m3 of hydrogen is used as a household fuel at RTP.
Give your answer to 3 significant figures and in standard form.
energy released = .................................................... kJ [2]
