AP Chemistry Exam Reactions: Questions and Answers With the new format of the exam in 2007 and the availability of both questions and answers on the web at AP Central (http://apcentral.collegeboard.com:80/apc/public/courses/4606.html), I have determined not to update this page any longer. Please create an account as a teacher at AP Central and navigate to the full exams and scoring rubrics which are available back to 2003 Beginning in 2007, question 4 is no longer 5 out of 8 responses but rather three required responses. Also, in addition to writing the reactants and products, the equation must be balanced and there is a question about the chemical reaction. 2007 (a) A solution of sodium hydroxide is added to a solution of lead(II) nitrate. If 1.0 L volumes of 1.0 M solutions of sodium hydroxide and lead(II) nitrate are mixed together, now many moles of product(s) will be produced? Assume the reaction goes to completion. (b) Excess nitric acid is added to solid calcium carbonate. Briefly explain why statues made of marble (calcium carbonate) displayed outdoors in urban areas are deteriorating. (c) A solution containing silver(I) ion (an oxidixing agent) is mixed with a; solution containing iron(II) ion (a reducing agent). If the contents of the reaction mixture described above are filtered, what substance(s), if any, would remain on the filter paper? - 2+ → (a) (i) Balanced equation: 2OH + Pb Pb(OH)2 (s) (ii) The moles of each reactant are obtained by multiplying the volume times the molarity. OH- is 1 mole. Pb2+ is 1 mole. Since the balanced equation shows that 2 moles of OH- are consumed for each 1 mole of Pb2+, the moles of product would be 0.50 moles. + → 2+ (b) (i) Balanced equation: 2H + CaCO3 Ca + H2CO3 (or CO2 + H2O) (ii) Combustion products from automobiles contain nitrogen oxide compounds. When the nitrogen oxides dissolve in water in the air it turns the rain acidic and the reaction above causes the calcium carbonate to slowly dissolve. (c) (i) Balanced equation: Ag+ + Fe2+ → Ag + Fe3+ (ii) One of the products is solid silver metal. When filtered the solid silver metal would appear on the filter paper. 2006 (a) Solid potassium chlorate is strongly heated.
