Better than the first one, still not great though.

I think so!


Great :smile:

Guys for the propane-1,2-diol question, was the organic product formed in part a a carboxylic acid-ketone combination and for the alternative organic product it's a aldehyde-ketone combination?


I got the aldehyde and ketone but i didnt do the alternative question...left it blank :frown:
Oh and did you guys get -11760 for the ethanol combustion or something

The aldehyde and ketone was the alternative I think because it said limiting potassium dichromate?
Such a nice paper imo. Better than paper 1.
It feels like 64 for an A
But I think it will be 60. Mixed reactions from what I have seen.
Everyone in my class found it to be a nice paper.

Yes was confused about this and I put 3{o). Wud be two for reflux for just one o-h but there was another, I'm not sure anyone put 3(0)

Super easy in some place, few A grade questions, probably 66 for an A

Nice for the new spec.
Why was a thin layer of platinum used to coat the catalyst ?
Also why was the thermometer of enough uncertainty ?

I put the alcohol (whatever it was called) plus 3(O) becomes 2H20 plus COOHCOCH3

This is what I did

Not sure as the other OH might be able to :s it's secondary , so Keaton's too. And 3(0)

Shouldn't the skeleton structure have OH on the end of where you've added your extra sticks?

I said that honeycomb has a large SA and a thin layer wouldnt decrease the SA so the catalyst would still be effective

The first one will be oxidised to a ketone though? The secondary alcohol part. And your skeletal structure needs to show the diol! Or else it would be mistaken as a methyl branch
For the second bit i put 5/2(o)

Same
What did you all get for the IR spectrum one?
