  • 4(a)[1]

    (pale) yellow and gas

  • 4(b)[3]

    Method 1

    M1 S 25.2 / 32 or 0.78/0.79 …

    and

    F 74.8 / 19 or 3.93 / 3.94…

    M2 ÷ both by 0.7875 = 1 : 5 or SF5

    M3 (254 ÷ 127 = 2 and) S2F10

    Method 2

    M1 254 × 25.2/100 and 254 × 74.8 / 100 OR ‘64’ and ‘190’

    M2 64 / 32 and 190 / 19

    M3 (2 and 10) to give S2F10

  • 4(c)[3]

    N with 1 dot-cross bonding pair with each Cl

    2 non-bonding dots for N

    6 non-bonding crosses for Cl

  • 4(d)[3]

    two crosses in first shell of Li

    7 dots and 1 cross in third shell of Cl

    ‘+’ charge on Li on correct answer line and ‘–‘ charge on Cl ion on correct answer line

  • 4(e)[3]

    ionic bonds in LiCl

    attraction between molecules in NCl3

    weaker attraction (between particles) in NCl3 ORA
