it went quite badly .

nothing on my ps...but why chem/imp did

yeah, don't worry! Thanks a lot for the info! I hope the structure will be like that! Wouldn't mind it .
My interview is tomorrow so scared haha

Hey mate, how was your imperial interiew?!
What did they ask

Do you have the exam paper with you ? did you get hold of that yet?
1) Firstly, for this question do you think that the order of the numbers are actually wrong on this unofficial mark scheme from the thread? Becuase surely DEM moles in the eqbm mixture was given to us and we didnt have to work it out? What do you think?

0.7(0) (CH3CH2OH)
6.4(0) (DEM)
3.6(0) (H2O) (3marks)

2) For the addition of solvent question, do you think I would get any mark for saying "no effect...because since the solvent is inert it doesn't react with any compounds in the eqbm mixture"? I know my explanation is wrong...do you think I will get the mark for the "No effect" bit>?


3) For that question whereby you had to draw two alkene monomers what did you actually DRAW? I just wanted to check my answer?

4) For that question on why Non bio would it have been acceptable to say that it was non polar and hence wouldnt be attacked by nucleophiles instead of going into the details about dipoles cancelling out and stuff?

5) on THat question where you had to draw cyclohexane
, would it have been ok to have the two OH groups on either side of the shape? Do you know what I mean?

6) "Observations:

Silver mirror (formed)/(brick) Red ppt
No observable change/No reaction (3 marks)"

For this question , I think that they gave got the order wrong, do you think so? because the first one was a ketone and hence wouldn't give silver mirror.

7) for that mechanism did you have to write electrophilic sub, because i am pretty sure that they asked to outline rather than name?


* finally how many marks u lost>
