Question:
There is much more oxygen at sea level than at the top of a high mountain.
When a person moves quickly from sea level to the top of a mountain, they may get out of
breath. They may feel ill.
But if they move up slowly, over several days, they are less likely to feel ill.
This is because their body has time to make extra red blood cells.
1 Name the reaction that happens inside our cells, which uses oxygen.
………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
2 Explain why this reaction is important.
………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
3 Explain why more red blood cells in your blood having can help to provide more oxygen to
the cells.

4 Imagine you are a climbing guide in the Himalayan mountains.
The climbers you are with are in a hurry. They want to climb very high, very quickly.
Explain to the people you are guiding why it is important to take several days to climb up
into the mountains

5 One of the trekkers was a doctor. She took blood samples from herself and the other
trekkers during their trek.
She measured the quantity of oxygen in the blood. The graph shows the results.
Describe the trend shown in the graph and suggest an explanation for it.

Question:
Sodium chloride is known as common salt. It is a very useful compound. Read this
information about how it is extracted and then answer the questions.

1 What is the solvent in seawater? …………………………………………………………………………………………………………….
2 What is the main solute in seawater? …………………………………………………………………………………………………….
3 Give two uses of salt.
……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………..
……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
4 Explain why the seawater is trapped in large shallow pools and not small deep ones.
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….

Question:
Look carefully at the graph. It shows how much of the three salts, lead nitrate, copper
sulfate and potassium chloride, dissolve in 100 g of water at various temperatures.
1 What is the solubility of lead nitrate at 40 °C? (How many grams of lead nitrate dissolve in
100 g of water at 40 °C?)
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….
2 What is the solubility of potassium chloride at 20 °C? ……………………………………………………………………..
3 Which of the three solutes (the three salts, lead nitrate, copper sulfate or potassium
chloride) is the least soluble at 50 °C? ………………………………………………………………………………………………….
4 Which of the three solutes is the least soluble at 80 °C? ………………………………………………………………
5 What is the solubility of both potassium chloride and copper sulfate at 75 °C?
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….

6 Explain why it is important to give the temperature when you give the solubility of one of
the solutes. (Look what happens to the solubility of lead nitrate at 40 °C and at 60 °C.)
……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….
7 Explain why the solubility is given in grams per 100 g of water. (Think about what would
happen if you used 100 g for a test at 40 °C and 50 g for a test at 70 °C.)

Question:
1 Plot the data for lead nitrate on the graph on the previous page, so that you can compare
the solubility of the three salts. Join the points in an appropriate way.
2 What is the solubility of lead nitrate at 40 °C? ……………………………………………………………………………………
3 What is the solubility of potassium chloride at 20 °C? …………………………………………………………………….
4 Which of the three solutes is the least soluble at 50 °C? ……………………………………………………………….
5 Which of the three solutes is the least soluble at 80 °C? ………………………………………………………………..
6 What is the solubility of both potassium chloride and copper sulfate at 75 °C?
………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
7 Explain why it is important to give the temperature when you give the solubility of one of
5
the solutes.

Question:
Match the words to their meanings.
Cut out the words as a block and stick them in your book.
Then cut out the meanings separately and match them to the words.
Only stick them in when you are sure you have matched them correctly.
Note: There are more meanings than words, so take care.
