<div class="question">
<p class="p1">At HL, it was very surprising and disappointing that candidates did not do well on this question as many of the questions were based on core chemical principles applied in an environmental context. Candidates could not usually relate the strength of the oxygen to oxygen bond in ozone versus that in oxygen to energy needed to break the bond.</p>
<p class="p1">Some of the better candidates mentioned bond order and supported their answer with well represented diagrams. In (ii), many candidates were able to state at least one equation for either the formation or depletion of ozone, though many were not consistent with the use of the dot symbol to represent the radical. Radicals can be represented with or without a dot, but it is important that candidates are consistent in whatever representation they use. In (b), many candidates were not able to write the equations for the depletion of ozone by CFC, and only a small minority scored all three marks here. In addition, it was very disappointing that candidates could not explain why CFCs are so effective at ozone depletion.</p>

<p>(a) and (b) were well answered though the weaker students in (b) simply stated that \({{\text{C}}_{\text{2}}}{{\text{F}}_{\text{6}}}\) contains no chlorine – no credit was awarded for this. (c) (i) was generally well done though temperature inversion often was not correctly described. Part (ii) was very poorly answered and most only scored one mark. PANs continue to be a real challenge for candidates and similar to previous examination papers candidate performance here was very poor. In (d) the most common mistake was the sight of two lone pairs instead of one on the central oxygen in ozone. (e) was well done however, though some inconsistency of radical symbols was common.</p>
