Does anyone have the OCR breadth in chemistry specimen paper link like the one that we did for mocks that OCR send the teachers??

anyone else bricking it
Yes but if you wan't the stock answers here they are.

TMS is used as the standard for chemical shift measurements

D2O undergoes proton exchange (with labile protons e.g. OH, NH)

CDCl3, a deutarated solvent, is used as it does not provide a peak
do we need to know that halogenoalkanes + NH3 (or amines) would eventually turn into a quaternary ammonium salt if NH3 is not in excess (or the halogenoalkane is in excess ) ?????? p.s. i hate spelling the word quaternary !
In TLC how do you know about the solubility of compound? Like the higher the Rf the more soluble???? idk....
got that one thx

You'll just be able to need to say that ethanolic ammonia is in excess to prevent further substitutions

the greater the solubility, the slower the component moves, cause it will be more attached to the stationary phase. Rf= distance move by component/ distance move by solvent, so Rf is smaller. and retention time longer.

TLC has nothing to do with retention time. It's separation by adsorption.
Best of luck everyone 🍀
Does anyone know if dilute, excess acid or alkali is used in any of the hydrolysis reactions? It keeps popping into my head and I can't remember what it's used for!!

lol yeah sorry. so it would be the stronger the adsorption, the component binds more strongly. travels in shorter distance. Rf= distance move by component/ distance move by solvent. therefore Rf value decreases.

Good luck guys!! Hoping the h nmr is kinder than last year 😂

If in GC and the stationary phase is a solid, then it separates by adsorption right?

Yes, that's correct

almost every reaction uses conc acid except diazotisation which uses dilute HCl i think?

All hydrolysis reactions use dilute acid and alkali

I always say you use dilute HCl for acid hydrolysis of esters
