The first question was Z-2-chloro-pent-2-ene or something like that, and I got O2 as the gas which wasn't suitable, -12 is right


Why did you choose O2? It's an inert gas so I thought it was CO2 cos its more polar... :/

Was it separating funnel? And drying agent etc I spoke to my teacher and he said this would be the best from what I could remember the question being

I put separating funnel but tbh I don't think we'll have any idea of the answer unless the scientists in Pennsylvania tell us or Edexcel release the markscheme :')

I've literally got George Facer open right now and it says:

"The carrier gas can be Hydrogen, Argon, Oxygen, Nitrogen or Air,"

Therefore, CO2 is unsuitable, as CO2 would be present in Air just not a lot of it. Whereas pure Oxygen is allowed.


Mine says the opposite. :redface:
And for constant calculation i got 0.56

George facer textbook or revision guide ? I put same as you and said Carbon dioxide inappropriate

I put cyclohexanol and it was microwaves, cos polar
Also got 4 before the 0.56 question
Also I got 12.0 for the pH?
+ What were your three points for the pH>7 question


I was like: ∆H is +ve, therefore an increase in temperature would shift the equilibrium to the right, making the value for Kw larger. pKw would decrease as it is a negative log, so the pH would decrease too. Therefore, he is incorrect.


Same...the answer was hexanol though I think

Yeah 0.56 and the first part was 4.

Ahh, well. Cyclohexane was a guess so not surprised that was wrong. Did you round your values throughout the pH question? I didn't, so maybe mine was lower :/ A lot of people got 12.0 though.
For the three points, I put:
- titrating weak acid with strong base
- strong base ionises fully whereas weak acid doesn't
- hence more OH- ions in solution so slightly higher pH than 7.
No idea if this is right though :/
Alright Multiple Choice questions

-2601
-12 ( I can't remember )
4
0.56
KOH
Z2chloro
Cyclohexanol
2 methylcyclohexane
Oxygen ( Cofirmed is correct )


pH
12.0
Ph does change of water

Rate=k(A)(X)
k=0.21
tonnes=3.1
The biodiesal catalyst anything OH


Section C:
delta H -311
System= -567


nmr thing:
triplet, quartet,
1.8-3.0
10.0-12.0

Hahah I spent ages on it then I realised that they'd told us the MF! First I tried doing it with 1 mol NO2 and 0 mol N2O4 initially, and then I wound up with an answer that wasn't there! I must have spent about three minutes on that question then kicked myself when I got it ahaha

Lol in my book it says CO2 is suitable?

suitable gases are: " nitrogen, helium, argon, CO2 " in the Ann Fullick book

Ann Fullick is renown for her mistakes, check the lack of a negative sign on the Arrhenius equation plus Boron Trifluoride having Gallium as the central atom (in AS).

That's EXACTLY what I wrote haha

Lol wtf is the answer to the suitable gas . Knowing edexcel , the most right answer will be a gas that isn't even on the bloody question paper !

OMG YAY +1 MARK

I swear you keep making my day better since before the exam lol

Oxygen sounds more plausible though because things can get oxidised in oxygen?
Original post by neverstop
Which one increased the equilibrium yield of CN? I swear they were trying to catch us trying to make us pic KCN because that's what we learn but I actually chose KOH because of the way OH reacting with H and therefore equilibrium moves to right ? Or maybe the answer is KCN?


Posted from TSR Mobile


KOH cos it reacts with the H+, so position moves to rhs

Hahah I really hope I'm helping someone, because I can't see myself losing any less than 20 marks in this paper.

Says the same in mine ;o
I think we're correct though, oxygen would react with the substance
