The numbers on the centre of each box above represent the question numbers in the examination.
*Depending on questions chosen.
The examination consists of the following types of questions:
14 multiple-choice questions (numbers 1 - 14) that test the student's mastery of concepts and
applications.
11 of 15 constructed-response questions (numbers 15 - 29) that test the student's mastery of concepts,
applications and problem solving.
Student selection of problems
When a student answers more than the number of questions required, without indicating which
ones are to be corrected, only the first ones are to be corrected. Thus, for example, if a student
is to choose two out of three questions and answers all three, only the first two are to be
corrected.

GUIDELINES FOR CORRECTING CONSTRUCTED-RESPONSE QUESTIONS
Below is an explanation of the terms found in the marking scale to be used for scoring the
answers to the constructed response questions in the examination.
It is IMPORTANT that the teacher read this information carefully before correcting the
examination.
Constructed-response questions usually consist of two parts: the procedure used to solve the
problem and the answer. Thus, a constructed-response question should be corrected in two steps.
Step 1
Analyze the work to understand the procedure used by the student, and then decide if the
procedure is appropriate or not.
A procedure is appropriate if the steps presented could lead to the correct answer.
A procedure is partially appropriate if the steps presented do not lead to the correct answer,
but include at least one step that is relevant and correct.
A procedure is inappropriate if none of the steps presented are relevant or if the student has
not shown any work.
Step 2
If the procedure is deemed appropriate, then evaluate the answer. If the answer is incorrect,
identify the type of error made.
The error is considered minor if it is an error in calculation or transcription, if the unit of
measurement is incorrect or missing, or if the student has rounded off a number incorrectly.
The error is considered major if a law, rule, or formula has been applied incorrectly.
No marks are allotted for a correct answer when the procedure used is inappropriate.
All extended answers have been worked out using significant figures. However, do not
penalize students if they do not consider significant figures.

Part C
Example of an appropriate and complete solution
Possible explanations
A. The graph given could represent this change.
Explanation: Photosynthesis requires sunlight as an energy source to assemble simple
molecules into more complex structures. Since energy is being absorbed
during the process, enthalpy is increasing as indicated on the graph.
B. The graph given could not represent this change.
Explanation: As bonds are formed to change liquid water into ice, energy will be
released to the surroundings. Therefore the ice that forms will have less
enthalpy than the liquid water. The graph shows an increase in enthalpy.
Note Simply identifying the change as endothermic or exothermic is not an appropriate
explanation.
Allot 1 mark for each correct answer with an appropriate explanation.
Allot 1 sole mark for each correct explanation.

Example of an appropriate and complete solution
Possible explanations
A. Required Action: Use a rubber stopper with a valve so that the pressure in the bottle can be
lowered.
Explanation: Lowering the pressure reduces the concentration of the oxygen resulting in
fewer collisions between the molecules producing a reduced reaction rate.
B. Required Action: Stand the sealed wine bottle upright.
Explanation: Standing the sealed bottle upright would reduce the surface area of the
wine exposed to oxygen resulting in fewer collisions between the
molecules producing a reduced reaction rate.

action and 1 mark for the explanation.

Part E
Example of an appropriate and complete solution
A) Reactants (reverse reaction) are favoured. According to Le Chateliers Principle, the
system will shift in such a direction to reduce excess heat to re-establish equilibrium. In
order to reduce the excess heat the endothermic direction is favoured. This is the reverse
reaction.
B) No shift occurs. Only changes in concentration affect change in an equilibrium system
(based on the rate laws). Since the water is in a liquid state, increasing the amount of water
does not change its concentration. No shift will occur.
C) Reactants (reverse reaction) are favoured. The removal of hydrogen decreases its
concentration. According to LeChateliers Principle the reverse reaction will speed up in
order to replace the hydrogen removed until a new equilibrium is established.
D) Reactants (reverse reaction) are favoured. As the volume is increased the gas pressure is
decreased. There are a greater number of moles of gas molecules on the reactant side than
there are on the product side. According to le Chateliers Principle, the equilibrium will
shift in a direction that will increase pressure lost. This means the equilibrium will shift
toward the side with the greater number moles of gas, which is the reactant side.
Allot 1 mark for each correct answer with an appropriate explanation.
Allot 1 sole mark to students who correctly stated how the equilibrium system would or would
not shift, but provided inadequate or no explanation.
