Has the marking of Section B and Section C changed? I mean first there used to be 2 questions in section B and there was no section C and there was choice. So has the criteria changed cuz i noticed this in the latest papers.

this may sound like an extremely lame question but how do we know if a salt is acidic of basic?
Salts are generally neutral compounds except for carbonates, which are considered acidic. Anything that has the ability to donate hydrogen ions in a solution is an acid whereas an alkali donates hydroxide ions. Bases are metal oxides or hydroxides.

Just a few points:
-> Make a large drawing. At least 7 cm wide.
-> Use a sharp pencil. Avoid broken or fussy lines. Shading is generally discouraged.
-> Give a heading to your drawing to show what is represents.
-> Give plenty of clear labels.

Hello dude, they are not called Hydroxide ions,they are called hydroxyl groups which are attached to the hydrocarbon structure,they are a functional groups and are not ionic in structure like their friends hydroxide which combine with inorganic molecules while hydroxyl goes with organic molecules !
