  • 4(a)[2]

    (4FeCuS 13O2) → 2Fe2O3 + 4CuO + 8SO2

    Fe2O3 and CuO as a product (1)

    Equation fully correct (1)

  • 4(b)(i)[2]

    M1 rate of forward reaction = rate of reverse reaction (1)

    M2 concentration of reactants and products are constant (1)

  • 4(b)(ii)[2]

    M1 450 °C (1)

    M2 1-2 atm (1)

  • 4(b)(iii)[1]

    vanadium(V) oxide

  • 4(b)(iv)[1]

    increase rate of reaction

  • 4(b)(v)[2]

    M1 equilibrium shifts to left hand side (1)

    M2 forward reaction is exothermic (1)

  • 4(c)[2]

    C6H12O6 → 6C + 6H2O

    H2O (1)

    balance (1)
