It means loss of electrons in Redox. But what does it actually mean in organic chemistry, like saying alcohol oxidises to aldehyde then oxidises to carboxylic acid?
I think it still means the loss of electrons however it also converts from aldehyde to carboxylic acid in a reflux
Aldehyde is rcoh Carboxylic acid is rcooh so there is a loss of electrons
Also for the Advance notice, is there a predicted questions thread- because i need more questions
I don't understand the MS answer to 3gii in January 2011.
I think it has something to do with chlorine being a halogen, making it quite expensive compared to HCl. It is also highly reactive so would need specialised equipment to handle it.
Where is the origin of NOx emissions? Do they mean how NOx is produced by internal combustion, under high pressure the N react with O?
Yes that's it tbh. You can also mention the burning of traditional fossil fuels, which can release oxides of nitrogen, etc. General knowledge of pollutants from unit 1
There is past paper questions on green chemistry. There's been questions about atom economy, percentage yield, building a new plant before which are all in green chemistry
