erm what did you get for that question a bout the atom aconomy ones

You mean the one that asked what was better out of high atom economy or high percentage yield?

yh lol

could you draw it out here lol if you dont mind how it would look and how would the other two look when you add hbr

I already posted this answer quite a few pages up, let me find it..


The equilibrium question was asking you why it took shorter time for the reaction to get into a dynamic equilibrium with pressure increase. Basically, this was rate of reaction increasing, more particles per unit volume, more frequent collisions, more successful collisions etc.

Then it also said why does the composition of the mixture not change with an increase in pressure? This is because increase in pressure favours the side with the least gaseous moles, in the equation both sides had an equal number of gaseous moles (both had 2) so position of equilibrium did not change, there was no NET effect on composition.

Was the monomer butane or but-1-ene? I thought the monomer was but-1-ene. The original would have been but-1-ene if it had not gone through the process of polymerisation but it had.

I chose higher atom economy because a low atom economy results in the formation of by-products which can be hard to dispose off, blah blah, the environment blah blah blah. What did you choose?

I can't draw it, but i found a link to a picture:

I'm still not certain if its right, but here is the picture. I think adding hydrogen to this could make it straight chain, but its the opposite of reforming, and we don't need to now about it for unit 2.

what did they ask u to define in the equation when they started u off with "sum of..." was it atom economy or percentage yield ?

im an idiot i dropped a mark on that just did desired prodicts / total products didnt mentional mass will i have lost the mark

so did they want u to define atom economy ?

the equation wasnt it

Guys for the 'shape question'.

Around carbon 1 was tetrahedral and is saying symmetrical as a reason enough to get you the second mark?

might do what did you get for that question about the alcohol secondary i wrote 2metlypropan2ol will i gte the mark as i didnt but the dashes in
