Thanks :)

A number of alcohols with the formula C4
H10O are separately oxidised. Using 70g of the alcohols
a 62% yield of organic product is achieved.
What mass of product could be obtained?
1 42.2g of butanone
2 51.6g of butanoic acid
3 51.6g of 2-methyl propanoic acid

Find the molecular mass of butanone, butanoic acid and 2-methyl propanoic acid. Then find the yield using actual mass/calculated mass x 100. Choose the options whose yield = 62 %.

m getting 58.6% for all of the three options, can you please solve any one option?

15. In the equation for the decomposition of a Group II metal nitrate, the metal nitrate and the metal oxide have a mole ratio of 1:1. So (mass of nitrate)/(molecular mass of nitrate)=(mass of metal oxide)/(molecular mass of metal oxide). The mass of nitrate is given to be 2 grams. The mass of the metal oxide will 2 minus the mass of gas produced.
17. Find the moles of O2 from the information given. Write a balanced equation for the combustion of Ca and Mg. Then use mole ratios to determine whether the metal is Ca or Mg.

Thanks alot.
Could you please answer Q9 of this paper as well. And could you please work out the answer for all the options if its not a problem.
Thanks once again for ur time and effort.

9 is to be done the same way. Draw an ICE chart and add up the equilibrium moles.

CAn you please solve one option for me, as im getting 58.6 for all three of them

Sorry, I didn't read the question properly. It's to be done this way:

16. This is something you have to memorise. Cl2 + cold, dilute NaOH will give a ClO- ion (oxidation state = +3) and Cl2 + hot, concentrated NaOH will give a ClO3- ion (oxidation state = +5).
20. Find the molecular masses of the products of propyl propanoate. The find the % by mass of each compound.
28. -NH2 from NH3 substitutes one Br atom. NH2 is a nucleophile too, and has to be close to the other C-Br bond so that it can attack it. 1,5 is closer than 1,4.

thank you :D here again Q20 same like the ques in previous paper plz explain one of them
