An experiment is set up as shown. The volume of gas collected is measured after 30 minutes. [Figure 6.1] The experiment is repeated several times. Each time the light intensity is increased. Which graph shows the results?

This question uses a diagram from the original paper, which isn't shown here. Open the full paper from the past papers archive to see it.

AGraph showing volume of gas produced increasing, then levelling off, with a less steep initial gradient.
BGraph showing volume of gas produced increasing slowly then more rapidly, forming a concave up curve.
CGraph showing volume of gas produced increasing rapidly, then levelling off, forming a concave down curve.
DGraph showing volume of gas produced decreasing as light intensity increases.

✓ Correct answer

C: Graph showing volume of gas produced increasing rapidly, then levelling off, forming a concave down curve.
