Well...the papers before 2009 were much easier lol
lol thats exactly why i asked.. i wanted reassurance that the 2010 paper was hard by luck, not by the new specification..

ahh im gonna fail tomorrow.. i wish i sat this before the new spec came out

wow why was my other acc perm banned?

anyway.. is the new spec any different to the old one? silly question i know but i can't spot the difference lol..

and to clear a few things up:
alkene to alcohol: heat under reflux with concentrated sulphuric acid (or heat with steam under high pressures?)
alcohol to alkene: ??
alcohol to aldehyde/ketone: oxidise primary and/or secondary alcohols



alcohol - alkene = Al(2)0(3), 300 degrees, 1 atm.

alcohol - alkene = Al(2)0(3), 300 degrees, 1 atm.
where Al2O3 is the catalyst, and 300 degrees 1 atm is temp and pressure right?
if you get a question where you're given the concentration (in moldm^3) and volume in cm^3, do you multiply them then divide by 1000 to get moles?

or do you divide by 1000 when you are given volume in dm^3?

lastly alkene to alcohol = alkene + H(2)0, conditions/reagents = H(3)PO(4), 300 degrees also 60 atm.

mhmm.
do you always convert grams to kg ?
and so c-f shortest bond = strongest. longer bonds down group, bond enthalpy of c-hals decreases down group with larger atom?

You convert KG to grams.
electronegativity is the ability to attract bonding electrons from an atom

true or false? correct answer wins a rep worth nothnig

Electronegativity is the degree to which an atom attracts electrons.

Fluorine attracts more of the electron cloud, and so is more electronegative and will have a partial negative charge.

thanks..

teaching is learning guys so help me to help you..

why are chlorine radicals not produced from the break down chloromethane molecules in the trophosphere (whatever the hell that is)

You always work out titrations in dm^3. 1000cm=1dm

No you dont all the guides say to do it in cm3

If they are broken down they are. However things are rarely broken down in the troposphere - most of the high frequency solar radiation required to break down the halogenoalkane has been absorbed by the ozone layer in the stratosphere (the stratosphere is above the troposhere).

ite..

and how many electrons does sodium have in its outershell

rofl jk man relax

No, you convert to dm^3. The concentration is given as mol dm-3 or g dm-3, at some point you have to convert to dm.

Relax? Why are you asking questions if you don't want them answered?
Lower frequency of radiation and therefore energy in the troposphere... God knows why ! Any help here... haha


Are the following 2 statements true :

1) Ionisation enthalpy decreases down the group, and therefore reactivity increases

2) Methane is useful in the stratopshere as it removes chlorine radicals which cause depletion of ozone. Howere in the troposphere it is less useful as ozone is harmful in the troposphere and therefore we want it to be removed form Cl radicals, but the methane causes them to dissappear.

Sorry that was worded terribly :P

Also does anyone know how to draw a NO or NO2 radical :O :s-smilie: ? =]

Because it's already been absorbed by the ozone layer present in the stratosphere? :smile:

No, electronegativity - although that links with ionisation enthlapy. Reactivity increases up groups.

Well you just draw NO or NO2. making sure it has one unpaired electron.
