Introduction  iii


What is the The Ten? Before you start looking at this book, please take a few minutes and read this. It will save you time. There are many different AP Chemistry review books available that provide you with thousands of questions. The design of these books is to give you so many questions that as you solve them you gain a false sense of confidence that you understand the material. This book does not do that. This book is created specifically for students of the Edvantage Science program. Their teachers recognize how to best prepare their students and we are happy to support both teachers and students where ever we can. We work with teachers who have consistently supported students to be successful in the AP Chemistry exam. These same teachers have produced the Edvantage Science AP Chemistry 1 and 2 program. This program is the only AP Chemistry program written specifically for high school students rather than first year University and College students. As a result, students using this program tend to well in their current AP Chemistry studies. The Ten is a summary of these teachers’ collective knowledge around how to best prepare students for an exam. They have identified key questions in each unit that have traditionally been considered difficult and the type of question you may expect to encounter on the exam.

How can it help me study? This review book identifies key or reference questions that students consistently have troubles solving in AP Chemistry. The goal of this book is simple. If you can do the questions and complete the digital quizzes at Edvantagescience.com, there will be no surprises on the AP Chemistry exam. We by no means can guarantee any given mark, but we are confident that if you can do these questions, you’re ready for the exam. After solving each problem, you can check your answer at Edvantagescience.com. Look for the course called Edvantage Science AP Chemistry Test Prep. This course is organized by units and page number. You will be able to find the worked solution for every question in The Ten book. There will also be other support tools like quizzes that will provide you with addtional review. We realize this is a challenging time and are impressed with your ability to be ready for the exam. It shows your positive attitute, ability to focus and work hard. You should be proud of your accomplishments as you prepare to complete this course. Good luck on the exam and in your future academic endeavors.

14. The penny coin was removed from circulation in Canada In February of 2014. The United States may soon do the same. The major reason for this move was the rising value of copper metal. When copper’s value increased, pennies were produced as a zinc slug with a thin layer of copper plated over top. Zinc reacts readily with hydrochloric acid, while copper does not. A triangular file is used to nick the edge of a penny to expose the zinc slug below the layer of copper. The zinc reacts with the acid releasing bubbles from the nicked area until nothing remains but a thin shell of copper. If 0.948 L of hydrogen gas is collected over water at 20.0°C and a total pressure of 752 mm Hg, determine the percentage by mass of the copper in the 2.586 g penny.

4. The spectrophotometer works by shining a single wavelength of light through a sample of a colored solution. A photocell detects the amount of light that passes through the solution as % transmittance and the amount of light that does not pass through as the absorbance. The more concentrated the solution, the darker the color. Dark color leads to a lower percentage of light transmitted and thus a higher absorbance. There is a direct relationship between absorbance and the concentration of a colored solution. The “calibration curve” (actually a straight line) below was created using solutions of known Cu(NO3)2 concentration.

7. We can use pseudo integrated rate analysis when a reaction involves more than one reactant. We use a large excess of one of the reactants to manipulate the system so that the change in the concentration of the excess reactant is negligible. The value of the concentration of the excess reactant is subsumed into the rate constant because it barely changes and is therefore constant within the margin of error. We determine the order with respect to the species that is present in a very small concentration. We refer to the absolute value of the slope of the straight line plot as the pseudo rate constant, k’ (k prime). We determine the actual rate constant by dividing k’ by the [excess].

14. No precipitate forms when 24 mL of 0.17 M sodium fluoride is added to 55 mL of 0.22 M cadmium nitrate. From this information, what can you conclude about the numerical value for the Ksp of CdF2? (State the Ksp value as a range.)

15. Calculate the maximum [Sr2+] that can exist in solutions of the following: (a) 0.045 M sodium fluoride (Remember to consider the source of the fluoride ion.)

(b) 2.3 × 10–4 M lithium carbonate

(c) 0.011 M sulfuric acid

16. Sodium carbonate may be added to hard water to remove the Mg2+ ions. What mass of sodium carbonate is required to soften 10.0 L of hard water containing 3.2 × 10–3 M Mg2+? (Assume no volume change occurs.)

17. What is the maximum [Ag+] that can exist in a saturated solution of PbI2?

18. Consider a saturated solution of AgCl. (a) How can you change the Ksp for AgCl?

(b) How can you change the solubility of AgCl?

19. List two substances that would decrease the solubility of Mg(OH)2. Use Le Châtelier’s principle to explain each.

20. List two substances that would increase the solubility of Mg(OH)2. Use Le Châtelier’s principle and a Ksp expression to explain each.
