These mark schemes are published as an aid to teachers and students, to indicate the requirements of the examination. They show the basis on which Examiners were initially instructed to award marks. They do not indicate the details of the discussions that took place at an Examiners’ meeting before marking began. Any substantial changes to the mark scheme that arose from these discussions will be recorded in the published Report on the Examination.
All Examiners are instructed that alternative co rrect answers and unexpected appro aches in candidates’ scripts must be given marks that fairly reflect the relevant kno wledge and skills demonstrated.
Mark schemes must be read in co njunctio n with the questio n papers and the Report on the Examination.
?CIE will not enter into discussion or correspondence in connection with these mark schemes.
CIE is publishing the mark schemes fo r the June 2004 questio n papers fo r mo st IGCSE and GCE Advanced Level syllabuses.

The thresholds (minimum marks) for Grades C and D are normally set by dividing the mark range between the B and the E thresholds into three. For example, if the difference between the B and the E threshold is 24 marks, the C threshold is set 8 marks below the B threshold and the D threshold is set another 8 marks down. If dividing the interval by three results in a fraction of a mark, then the threshold is normally rounded down.

Practical 1
Question 1
(a) Table 1.1
Give one mark if both weighings are to 2 dp or better, in the correct places in the table, and there is no error in subtraction.
Centres were instructed to provide between 1.70 g and 2.00 g of FA 1. If a
candidate’s mass is clearly a value in this range x10 or x 0.1 the mark for Table 1.1 will not be awarded but the “correct” value will be used in assessing the accuracy ratio .
[1]
1
(b) Titration Table 1.1
Give one mark if all final burette readings (except any labelled Rough) are to 2 dp and the readings are in the correct places in the table.
Do not give this mark if “impossible” burette readings (e.g. 23.47 cm 3) are given (initial or final readings).
Give one mark if there are two titres within 0.10 cm 3 and a “correct” average has been calculated.
See instructions in (f) and examples in (g) of Standing Instructions.
The subtraction of a Rough value need only be checked when the Rough value has been included in the selection for calculating the average.
Do not give this mark if there is an error in subtraction or there is no indication of the titres used to calculate the average (ticks/calculation). [2]
Accuracy
Check and correct if necessary the subtraction in Table 1.1 for the Supervisor. Use the rules in Standing Instructions to obtain a titration value for the Supervisor.
Calculate, correct to 2 decimal places, for each candidate:

A candidate with an incorrect sub-section, who correctly starts a subsequent sub-section from first principles can gain the evaluation mark.
The correct value is given by: titre

sodium of mass s candidate' x 1.887
Do not award this evaluation mark if there are cancelling chemical errors or an M r other than 106 is used in the calculation .
Ignore rounding to less than 3 significant figures providing evaluation has been shown to 3 significant figures or better .
Examiners should calculate the value, correct to 3 significant figures, and record it in a ring close to the candidate’s value .
