(a) Oxygen (b) (i) To cool the tube and condense water vapour (ii) The limewater will turn milky. (c) food + oxygen carbon dioxide + water 3. All the foods produced carbon dioxide and water. 4. You should find that foods with a high fat/oil content burn well and give the most energy. The table below gives the actual energy released by 100 g of the foods you might have tested. Food tested Energy (kilojoules per 100 g) peanut 2370 potato crisps 2170 biscuit (digestive) 2014 sugar 1620 bread 1110 Activity (a) Alcohol molecules are not hydrocarbons because they also contain oxygen atoms. (b) alcohol + oxygen carbon dioxide + water 20
2 FUELS AND ENERGY 2: ONTROLLING FIRES hapter 9 Fuels and energy 2: ontrolling fires Activity (a) Fuel, oxygen and heat (b) The fire triangle Activity (a) (i) On burning solids such as wood, paper, cloth (ii) eat (b) Dry powder and carbon dioxide (c) Foam and carbon dioxide 2. Oxygen 3. Using foam (i) removes heat, cooling the fire, and (ii) prevents oxygen getting to the fire. 4. Putting a fire blanket or towel soaked in water over a burning chip pan. This stops oxygen getting to the burning oil. Also switch off heat source. 5. Using water or a foam that contains water on an electrical fire can lead to electrocution as water can conduct electricity. 6. Ask your teacher to give feedback on your leaflet. Activity The carbon dioxide acts like a blanket and stops oxygen in the air getting to the burning candle. 2. (a) arbon dioxide (b) The foam from the extinguisher stops oxygen getting to the tea light. 21
3 NATURE S EMISTRY hapter 10 Fuels 1: Fossil fuels Activity (a) hlorophyll (b) Oxygen (c) The energy is stored in bonds holding the atoms in sugar and starch compounds together. Activity A fossil fuel is a fuel that has been formed from the decaying remains of ancient plants and animals. 2. (a) Some of the things the same are: coal and oil were formed millions of years ago they were formed from living things that had died and were decaying they were covered over by mud and sand which squashed them and buried them deeper heat from within the Earth helped change the decaying plants and animals into coal and oil. (b) Things that were different are: coal was made from plant material such as trees oil was made from tiny sea creatures oil is trapped below impermeable rock. 3. Your flow charts will not look exactly like these but should describe the same stages. (a) Formation of coal energy from Sun helps plants to grow 300 million years ago, dead plants and trees fall into swampy water dead plants and trees are covered by mud, which stops them from decaying combination of layers of mud and heat from underground rocks causes plant remains to be squashed after millions of years of heat and pressure, the remains of the dead plants turn into coal 22
4 FUELS 1: FOSSIL FUELS (b) Formation of oil and natural gas energy from Sun helps microscopic sea creatures to grow, and be consumed by sea creatures millions of years ago, the sea creatures died and were covered by mud and sand, which stops them from decaying combination of layers of mud and heat from underground rocks causes remains of sea creatures to be squashed after millions of years of heat and pressure, the remains of the sea creatures turn into oil and natural gas Activity 10.3 Arguments for fracking include: creates jobs provides a new domestic energy source makes the country less reliant on imports extends the time before supplies run out. Arguments against fracking include: may cause minor earthquakes can pollute water supplies may have impacts on health such as asthma levels in children undermines efforts to tackle climate change. 23
5 NATURE S EMISTRY Activity (a) Supplies of fossil fuels will eventually run out. When they are used up, they cannot be replaced. (b) Fracking and deep-water drilling 2. (a) 35 (billion barrels) (b) 2008 (c) New discoveries of reserves 3. Information likely to be included in your report is: the Deepwater orizon was a drilling rig operated by British Petroleum (BP) in the Gulf of Mexico on 20 April 2010 a leak developed and a blowout preventer which would have sealed the well failed. The flow of oil and gas couldn t be controlled. These caught fire and caused several explosions on the rig. It took 5 months to finally seal the well there was lots of damage to the marine environment with the deaths of many fish, sea turtles and dolphins hundreds of miles of coastline were badly polluted by oil the disaster has cost BP more than $44 billion in fines, compensation and clean-up costs. 4. (a) Gas reserves (trillion cubic feet) Year (b) From 1970 until 1990 gas reserves fell as the amount of gas used was greater than new discoveries. From 1995 until 2015 gas reserves rose as the amount of new gas discoveries was greater than the amount being used. 24
6 FUELS 1: FOSSIL FUELS Activity (a) ydrocarbons (b) arbon dioxide and water (c) (i) arbon and carbon monoxide (ii) Incomplete combustion 2. (a) (i) Oxidation (ii) omplete combustion (b) Exothermic 3. atalytic converters are used to reduce emissions of poisonous carbon monoxide and oxides of nitrogen which causes acid rain. Activity (a) 38 (b) 3 (c) 4 (d) 5 (3O2 have 6 oxygen atoms, 42O have 4 oxygen atoms, giving a total of 10 oxygen atoms; dividing by 2 gives 5 molecules of oxygen, O2) (e) + propane + oxygen carbon + carbon dioxide hydrogen + water oxygen The number of each type of atom is the same on both sides of the equation. No mass has been gained or lost. Therefore this demonstrates the law of conservation of mass S1-N4 hemistry SB_Unit 2_Answers.indd 25 12/08/17 11:23 AM
7 NATURE S EMISTRY hapter 11 Fuels and energy 3: The problems with using fossil fuels Activity (a) A mixture of smoke and fog which is dangerous to health (b) Reduce use of coal; close coal-fired power stations; shut polluting factories; phase out polluting vehicles (c) To stop breathing in fine soot particles that are given out by car exhausts (d) Breathing problems and heart problems 2. Answers will vary but ideas for your poster could include: a graphic of a cyclist with a mask, statistics on death rates due to air pollution and different types of air pollution or a before cartoon of one cyclist with a mask and one without, and an after cartoon with one looking happy and one coughing and wheezing, with a caption wear a mask. 1. Activity Individual/household emissions ousing Transport Food onsumption Other Emissions (%) Theme (a) Methods include: insulating, draught proofing and double glazing, turning down the heating and hot-water thermostats, reducing the time the heating is on, using energyefficient heating systems and microgeneration technologies. (b) Using energy-efficient light bulbs and appliances; washing clothes at a lower temperature (c) Walking; cycling; using car share; using public transport (d) Sustainable: able to be done in a way that meets present needs without making it difficult for future generations to meet their needs because we have used up the resources. Seasonal: available according to local growing conditions (not imported). Eating a sustainable and healthy diet will reduce greenhouse gas emissions because food isn t grown out of season in heated greenhouses or transported from other countries, both of which use energy.
8 FUELS AND ENERGY 4: MEETING ENERGY NEEDS IN TE FUTURE 3. (a) Greenhouse gases (b) Using electric power packs instead of diesel engines to power the buses (c) 18% (d) (i) 50% (half) of all buses to be low emission by 2032 (ii) Because the graph is nearly a straight line which is steadily increasing, it is hoped that this will increase steadily from 2017 to 2032, by replacing diesel buses with low-emission vehicles hapter 12 Fuels and energy 4: Meeting energy needs in the future Activity Biomass 2.

Answers may vary but should include an overview of the potential energy sources that could be used to meet Scotland s future energy needs and your own ideas about which are most suitable. hapter 13 Fuels 2: Solutions to fossil fuel problems Activity (a) (i) Respiration (ii) Photosynthesis (iii) Respiration (b) Burning fossil fuels is increasing the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. 28
10 FUELS 2: SOLUTIONS TO FOSSIL FUEL PROBLEMS Activity Planting forests and regenerating peat bogs 2. Growing trees absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. 3. A lack of oxygen in the water slows the decay process. Activity Step 1: Remove the carbon dioxide from the gases being emitted to the atmosphere Step 2: ompress the gas Step 3: Inject the carbon dioxide into suitable rocks deep in the Earth s crust Activity Biofuels only release the carbon dioxide that the plants used to make the biofuel, absorbed from the atmosphere during their growing cycle. Activity Report Answers will vary but should include conclusions about which type of biomass produces biogas most quickly and which type produces most biogas. The results depend on what you used. The mixture of cow manure + other biomass material, such as vegetable peelings, should produce much more biogas than the cow manure on its own. Your graph will look similar to the one shown, but details will vary depending on the actual cow dung + biomass conditions. The rate at which cow dung produces biogas is faster at the start than the cow dung + biomass mixture. 40 g of cow dung can produce about 800 cm 3 cow dung of biogas. Also state any two ways of making your experiment fair from: the same mass of biomass was used in each case the bottles were filled to the same level with distilled water the bottles were kept in the same conditions Biogas may be given off at different rates when Time (days) different types of biomass are heated. ircumference of balloon (cm) 29
11 NATURE S EMISTRY Activity The mass (weight) of seeds or nuts used must be the same in each case. 3. Biomass is material that can be obtained from living things and burned to produce energy. Three biofuels that can be obtained from biomass are biogas from decomposing waste, bioethanol made by fermenting sugar, and biodiesel that can be made from used cooking oil. Purified biogas that is suitable for injecting into the national gas grid is known as liquid biomethane. Activity Wind farms and solar panel sites. 2. Risk of injury to birds, bats and marine life 3. Decaying plants can release greenhouse gases 4. Release of hydrogen sulfide, which smells, and release of trapped greenhouse gases Activity Wind turbines 2. (a) 0.7 arbon dioxide emissions (kg of O 2 per kilowatt hour of electricity produced) Natural gas oal Solar cells Wind turbine Geothermal Wave/Tidal ydroelectricity Power generation source (b) Using sustainable energy sources instead of fossil fuels means that less carbon dioxide will be released into the atmosphere. This will slow the rise in (stabilise/decrease) the concentration of O 2 in the atmosphere. 30

When the water surrounding the visking tubing containing the glucose solution is tested with Benedict s solution, a brick-red colour is produced. Glucose molecules are small enough to pass through the visking tubing into the water. 38
20 EVERYDAY ONSUMER PRODUTS 3: PLANTS FOR ENERGY Activity (a) Starch gives a blue black colour with iodine. (b) Amylase is an enzyme. (c) eat a sample of the solution with Benedict s solution. A brick-red colour is produced in the presence of glucose. 2. (a) As time passes, there is less starch present, because the starch is being broken down by the amylase. (b) Benedict s solution gives a brick-red colour because starch has been broken down to produce glucose. Activity Answers will vary but should contain reference to the froth on the top of the liquid, which shows that a gas is being produced, and that limewater turns milky because carbon dioxide is produced. Activity (a) The enzymes stop working because the yeast cells die when the alcohol percentage becomes too high.
