Must know

1Air is a mixture of gases. Oxygen supports combustion and respiration, while carbon dioxide is used in photosynthesis...
2Air is a mixture, not a compound.
3Use gas tests: oxygen relights a glowing splint; carbon dioxide turns lime water milky.
4Nitrogen is the major component of air.

Formula / process

1Oxygen supports burning; the fuel burns.
2Air is a mixture of gases. Oxygen supports combustion and respiration, while carbon dioxide is used in photosynthesis...
3Rusting is slow oxidation of iron, not flaming combustion.
4Combustion is burning in oxygen, rusting is slow corrosion of iron in air and moisture, and air pollution is caused by...

Exam traps

1Students may say oxygen burns.
2Oxygen supports burning; the fuel burns.
3Did you write supports combustion?
4Students may say rusting is fast burning.

Answer frame

Start with the exact keyword or formula before adding explanation.
Use one example, diagram cue, observation, or substitution to support the answer.
For 3 marks: definition, reason, and one supporting point.
For 5 marks: setup, method/process, example, conclusion, and final check.

Exam strategy

Avoid these traps

1Students may say oxygen burns.
2Oxygen supports burning; the fuel burns.
3Use exact gas test observations.
4Do not confuse oxygen and hydrogen splint tests.

Answer frame by marks

3 marks

Name the substance/process, state the observation or property, then give the reason.

5 marks
