Absolutely disgusting, AQA yet again proving that any amount of revision is not worth it because we're probably going to fail anyway

Complaining isn't going to do anything, what's been done has been done
Is GL chromatography wrong?
When others have complained it makes the exam board realise how hard it was and then they take that into consideration when making the grade boundaries

I put chromatography too :smile: I think it should work because it's such a versatile separation technique.

Forgot the heat under reflux though.
wouldnt q1) products have been Ch3COO- and H30+??

One mark less for me then :smile: Hopefully the grade boundaries will be lower than last year.
How many C peaks were there?

your equation is not balanced…


Is it not? There's a positive charge on CH3CO+

HNO3 +CH3COOH = CH3COO+ + H2O + NO3-
there is a extra O in product side
I got that omg!!!!!

Question 9 wasn't it 6 carbons?
Original post by RedNebula
I think it's CH3 O C(CH3)2 CH2CH2 OH
Anybody else get this?...

CH3 O C(CH3)2 CH2CH2 OH
That's exactly what quite a few of us got!
