where can i find hard NMR questions? or if i can find any stretch and challenge chemistry questions in general?

Just tried this again, I still get 1/10 when I do the ratio of acid to conjugate base :/

Your first answer looks right to me.

Henderson-Hasselbalch equation:

pH = pKa + log(A-/HA)

3 = 4 + log(A-/HA)

log(A-/HA) = -1

So the ratio must be 1/10 as 10^-1 = 1/10

Your second answer would be the opposite so 10/1 as you need log(A-/HA) = 1.

I think anyway, I could be missing something.

Hi
Can you please explain how you have done this question. I really don't understand it. Thanks

1. Write half equation for generation of hydrogen in aqueous hydroxide
2. Write half equation for generation of oxygen in aqueous hydroxide
3. Multiply equations so that they both have the same number of electrons in them.
4. Combine half equations and cancel like terms.

Could anyone explain 3??
I thought the weakest oxidising agent would be the strongest reducing agent and be the one with the most positive electrode potential?

the weakest oxidising agent would be the strongest reducing agent and be the one with the most negative electrode potential

The negative sign tells you the half equation doesn't want to go from left to right as written

Anyone know how to work out the final species?

But if it's the strongest reducing agent then it goes from left to right ?

Oh never mind, I got it thanks ! :biggrin:

Okay thank you !
Okay just did Jan f325 and got 80! However, the last question and the electrode potentials were confusing. Can someone help me understand how to answer question 7d. Here is a link:

7d? Very tricky.
Anyone tried the Edexcel papers? Printed Jan 2016 Unit 4 and Unit 5. Which are more useful for our spec? :smile:

There's more online if you look. I have used the first three and they're good. You just need to be careful not to go on the problems with additional spectra

When drawing optical isomers, does it matter you order the groups around the chiral centre???
Does anyone please have last years papers and mark schemes please???

I don't really get your question sorry… If you're asking if the chiral carbon has to be in the middle then yes. IF you're asking about the way in which you draw the 3D lines connecting the 4 groups to central chiral carbon then the examiners generally accept two versions, the most common being the usual tetrahedral shape
