It seemed to me like a lot of the those questions were just 'cut and paste' from the past papers. This is the first exam of this year I've actually felt happy with, hopefully that'll be reflected with my mark!

If you think it was ethanoic acid have a look at o-h bonds IR spectroscopy on google. It's really not that hard. Jeez :angry:

I so agree! Good job learnt all those answers from all the previous past papers! Also what did you get for that 7 marker? Really worried about it :/

OMG but it was ethanoic acid!

Omg it was ethanoic acid like you have to be pretty dumb to think it's ethanol ,come on guys I'm Asian I think I know

Ethanal*

Peak wasn't broad enough :smile:

But it says Carboxylic acids M(broad) so like medium ish!

Lol I guess I'm your perfect match and I so do the exam the oxidation state of br is -1 right? That's the only mark I got right
I'm almost certain it's ethanal.

Look at an image of the ethanal IR spectrum. It is an almost perfect match to the one on the exam.

What did you guys write for the 2 primary alcohols from Fig 1?

OMG ranveer :'( your so mean, you know I was annoyed about that!! Hate you LOADS.😡

I wrote fructose and retinal (vitamin A)

for the two intermolecular forces question i put permanent dipole permanent dipole and instantaneous dipole induced dipole because i know that ketones do not form hydrogen bonds. and for the ethanol one i put ethanoic acid because there was a peak at around 3000cm^-1 and this means it cannot be ethanal no matter what because this peak is present, you cannot simply pretend like this peak doesn't exist and say its ethanal as it was quite a distinctive peak as well.

shouldn't it be retinol?

What planet are you on? Ketons DO form hydrogen bonds. The functional group is an OXYGEN!!
Again, google the IR for ethanal. It's just like the one in the exam.

Ah sorry yes! That's what I meant! What intermolecular bonds did you get for the 7 marker?

I feel stupid now. I got 26.6%

Omg I though the paper went well but I feel silly mistakes coming in already.


26 is right

just because it has an oxygen doesn't mean it can form hydrogen bonds.

permanent dipole permanent dipole and instananeous dipole induced dipole.
