Mass of two carboxylic acid groups = ( 12+ 16 + 16 + 1) x 2 = 90

Mass of
BXn1jzC.png
= 132-90 = 42

Taking x = 3, mass of carbon = 12 x 3 = 36

Therefore, mass of hydrogen= 42-36 = 6

So, y=6 :)

Quite frankly , I'm not sure either, I've got solved past papers, So I solved it here from looking at 'em.

I'll practice 'em tonight :)

Please answer her query :)
Y U NO SPELL MY NAME RIGHT

why on earth x=3? n how did u deduce ittttttttttttttt ---_____---
Well we have to fine x and y and they are with C and H,so we will remove the other masses:
132-90=42
By deduction the only logical number would be 3C=12x3=36 and 6H=6.

s11 qp 42 question 8d :(
green/yellow/colourless- to- purple
as the solution(P) in flask is very dilute it will show a very light colour (a mixture of the fe 2+ and fe 3+ ions) its not red-brown or dirty green as solution DILUTE.
when potassium manganate(VII) is added, the solution changes colour as potassium manganate in excess.

when potassium manganate(VII) is added, as excess of sulfuric acid present in flask, this makes the colour of it, purple. (remember potassium manganate is purple in acids) :)
About the last line, the statement is incorrect. We have added the KMnO4 in excess (KMnO4 is purple in colour), and as a result, the solution has turned purple
