June 03 [9] [OVER] Base your answers to questions 68 through 73 on the information below and on your knowledge of chemistry. Nuclear Waste Storage Plan for Yucca Mountain In 1978, the U.S. Department of Energy began a study of Yucca Mountain which is located 90 miles from Las Vegas, Nevada. The study was to determine if Yucca Mountain would be suitable for a long-term burial site for high-level radioactive waste. A threedimensional (3-D) computer scale model of the site was used to simulate the Yucca Mountain area. The computer model study for Yucca Mountain included such variables as: the possibility of earthquakes, predicted water flow through the mountain, increased rainfall due to climate changes, radioactive leakage from the waste containers, and increased temperatures from the buried waste within the containers. The containers that will be used to store the radioactive waste are designed to last 10,000 years. Within the 10,000-year time period, cesium and strontium, the most powerful radioactive emitters, would have decayed. Other isotopes found in the waste would decay more slowly, but are not powerful radioactive emitters. In 1998, scientists discovered that the compressed volcanic ash making up Yucca Mountain was full of cracks. Because of the arid climate, scientists assumed that rainwater would move through the cracks at a slow rate. However, when radioactive chlorine-36 was found in rock samples at levels halfway through the mountain, it was clear that rainwater had moved quickly down through Yucca Mountain. It was only 50 years earlier when this chlorine-36 isotope had contaminated rainwater during atmospheric testing of the atom bomb. Some opponents of the Yucca Mountain plan believe that the uncertainties related to the many variables of the computer model result in limited reliability of its predictions. However, advocates of the plan believe it is safer to replace the numerous existing radioactive burial sites around the United States with the one site at Yucca Mountain. Other opponents of the plan believe that transporting the radioactive waste to Yucca Mountain from the existing 131 burial sites creates too much danger to the United States. In 2002, after years of political debate, a final legislative vote approved the development of Yucca Mountain to replace the existing 131 burial sites. 68 State one uncertainty in the computer model that limits the reliability of this computer model. [1] 69 Scientists assume that a manufacturing defect would cause at least one of the waste containers stored in the Yucca Mountain repository to leak within the first 1,000 years. State one possible effect such a leak could have on the environment near Yucca Mountain. [1] 70 State one risk associated with leaving radioactive waste in the 131 sites around the country where it is presently stored. [1] 71 If a sample of cesium-137 is stored in a waste container in Yucca Mountain, how much time must elapse until only 1 32 of the original sample remains unchanged? [1] 72 The information states Within the 10,000-year time period, cesium and strontium, the most powerful radioactive emitters, would have decayed. Use information from Reference Table N to support this statement. [1] 73 Why is water flow a crucial factor in deciding whether Yucca Mountain is a suitable burial site? [1] P.S./Chem. June 03 [10] Base your answers to questions 74 through 76 on the information below. A student wishes to investigate how the reaction rate changes with a change in concentration of HCl(aq). Given the reaction: Zn(s) + HCl(aq) H2(g) + ZnCl2(aq) 74 Identify the independent variable in this investigation. [1] 75 Identify one other variable that might affect the rate and should be held constant during this investigation. [1] 76 Describe the effect of increasing the concentration of HCl(aq) on the reaction rate and justify your response in terms of collision theory. [1] Base your answers to questions 77 through 79 on the information below. A truck carrying concentrated nitric acid overturns and spills its contents. The acid drains into a nearby pond. The pH of the pond water was 8.0 before the spill. After the spill, the pond water is 1,000 times more acidic. 77 Name an ion in the pond water that has increased in concentration due to this spill. [1] 78 What is the new pH of the pond water after the spill? 79 What color would bromthymol blue be at this new pH? P.S./Chem.

Part A Score [1] [OVER] PHYSICAL SETTING/CHEMISTRY continued Directions to the Teacher Follow the procedures below for scoring student answer papers for the Physical Setting/Chemistry examination. Additional information about scoring is provided in the publication Information Booklet for Administering and Scoring Regents Examinations in the Sciences. Use only red ink or red pencil in rating Regents papers. Do not correct the student s work by making insertions or changes of any kind. On the detachable answer sheet for Part A and Part B 1, indicate by means of a checkmark each incorrect or omitted answer. In the box provided at the end of each part, record the number of questions the student answered correctly for that part. At least two science teachers must participate in the scoring of each student s responses to the Part B 2 and Part C open-ended questions. Each of these teachers should be responsible for scoring a selected number of the open-ended questions on each answer paper. No one teacher is to score all the open-ended questions on a student s answer paper. Students responses must be scored strictly according to the Scoring Key and Rating Guide. For open-ended questions, credit may be allowed for responses other than those given in the rating guide if the response is a scientifically accurate answer to the question and demonstrates adequate knowledge as indicated by the examples in the rating guide. Complete sentences are not required. Phrases, diagrams, and symbols may be used. In the student s answer booklet, record the number of credits earned for each answer in the box printed to the right of the answer lines or spaces for that question. Fractional credit is not allowed. Only whole-number credit may be given to a response. Units need not be given when the wording of the questions allows such omissions. Raters should enter the scores earned for Part A, Part B 1, Part B 2, and Part C on the appropriate lines in the box printed on the answer booklet and then should add these four scores and enter the total in the box labeled Total Written Test Score. Then, the student s raw score should be converted to a scaled score by using the conversion chart printed at the end of this Scoring Key and Rating Guide. The student s scaled score should be entered in the labeled box on the student s answer booklet. The scaled score is the student s final examination score. All student answer papers that receive a scaled score of 60 through 64 must be scored a second time. For the second scoring, a different committee of teachers may score the student s paper or the original committee may score the paper, except that no teacher may score the same open-ended questions that he/she scored in the first rating of the paper. The school principal is responsible for assuring that the student s final examination score is based on a fair, accurate, and reliable scoring of the student s answer paper. Because scaled scores corresponding to raw scores in the conversion chart may change from one examination to another, it is crucial that for each administration, the conversion chart provided in the scoring key for that administration be used to determine the student s final score. The chart in this scoring key is usable only for this administration of the examination. [3] [OVER] PHYSICAL SETTING/CHEMISTRY continued Part B 2 Allow a total of 15 credits for this part.
