(i) KAl(SO₄)₂. 12H₂O
(ii) Na₂SO₄
(1aii)
Number of moles of sodium reascted = reacting mass/molar mass
= 3.6/23
= 0.1565moles
Number of moles of oxygen reacted = (1/4) x Number of sodium
= 1/4 x (3.6/23)
= 0.03913
Reacting mass of oxygen = Number of moles x molar mass
= 0.03913 x (16×2)
= 1.252grams

Air in gaseous form is first passed through caustic soda to remove CO₂. It is compressed and cooled until ut becomes a liquid at -200°C. It is then led to a fractionating column. On distillation, Nitrogen which has a lowet boiling point of -196°C is evolced first leaving behind Oxygen in liquid form. Further heating converts the liquid to a gas at -183°C.
(1bii)
(i) It is used for combustion

This is because room temperature is warmer
(1biv)
(i) Methyl orange
(ii) Phenophthalein
(1ci)
An ion is an atom or molecule which has a net electric charge due to the loss or gain of one or more electrons.
(1cii)
HCl gas doesn’t contain ions
(1cii)
(i) Noble gases: Neon, Helium
(ii) Halogens: Iodine, Fluorine
(iii) Alkaline earth metals: Calcium, Magnesium
(1civ)
Halogens attain stable octet configuration by accepting an electron from donors Group I elements.
(1di)
A sol is a colloid where solid particles are dispersed in liquid medium.

(i) Potassium hexacyanoferrate(II)
(ii) It is a complex salt
(4cii)
(i) Wrought iron
(ii) Cast iron
(4ciii)
2H₂ + O₂ →2H₂O
2 : 1 : 2
Reacting volumes;
40cm³ : 20cm³ : 40cm³
Residual volumes;
(50 – 40) (20 – 20)
= 10cm³ = 0cm³ = 40cm³
Total residual volume = 10 + 40
= 50cm³

=GIS=
(i) It is cost effective and requires less manpower as it is tool-based.
(ii) It requires field study to interpret data into useful information
=REMOTE SENSING=
(i) It is a costly affair as the data is incurred from space and through sensors and satellites.
(ii) It reduces manual work and ground field study.
(8b)
(i) In Telecommunication: Satellite remote sensing have been found to be more useful and relevant in telecommunication. The satellite remote sensing has made it possible for regional, national and international communication without being in direct contact with human beings.
(ii) In Transportation: The availability of high resolution commercial remote sensing has contributed to a revolution to the transport network. The satellite remote sensing is useful to transportation, it helps to improve the trafficability of the roads and also contributed greatly in the movement of aero planes, jets and even seen beyond the bonds of human eye sight.
(8c)
(i) Inadequate Power
(ii) Inadequate Personnel
(iii) Inadequate Personnel
(iv) Inadequate capital
PRACTICAL ANSWERS
(3a)
(i)
The texture of a rock is the size, shape, and arrangement of the grains (for sedimentary rocks) or crystals (for igneous and metamorphic rocks. Example includes: basalt, andesite and rhyolite.
(ii)
The structure of an igneous rock is normally taken to comprise the mutual relationships of mineral or mineral-glass aggregates that have contrasting textures, along with layering, fractures, and other larger-scale features that transect or bound such aggregates.
(iii) Colour: Color index is an indicator of the types of minerals present, and the specific type of rock. The color index of an igneous rock is a measure of the ratio of dark colored, or mafic, minerals to light colored, or felsic, minerals.
(3b)
PLUTONIC ROCKS
– Plutonic rocks are formed when magma cools and solidifies underground.
– It cools at a very slow rate and may take thousands or millions of years to solidify.
VOLCANIC ROCKS
– Volcanic rocks are formed from lava that flows on the surface of the Earth and other planets and then cools and solidifies.
– It doesn’t cool at a very slow rate and it doesn’t take thousands or millions of years to solidify.
