Second Variant
Q5
I didn't understand the question itself is it saying 2CH3CHO Or just CH3CHO
And i need help for part a)


oh XD :p
Sorry, when i read fast i make mistakes. :(
its ok... first i thought that i've made mistake :p


n for Q5 (a) whenever the formula is CnH2nO2 then its either carboxylic acid or an ester... but for ths part as it is sayng that it must contain -OH group then u have to draw the structural formula for the carboxylic acid...

2 is the mole of CH3CHO that is chngng into one mole of C4H8O2

Elimination. A functional groups gets replaced by another group

Reduction is gain of hydrogen by the removal of oxygen
Oxidation is gain of oxygen and loss of Hydrogen
(OIL-RIG)

Hydrolysis bond formation with the elimination of a water molecule

and dehydration is pulling back h20 from the compound (H and OH) -Removing H


Elimation. Can be Halogens (I , Br , Cl)
Reduction. NABH4 . LiAlH4 , Zn, H2
Oxidation : Kmno4 , K2Cr2O7 , H2so4

Hyrdrolysis. Agno3 , H20

Dehyrdration : H3PO4 , H2so4

dun u think!! elimination is more than substitution u told :'|

elimination = dehydration my teacher said me once :'| it creates double bond no? :'|
Elimination removes two units while dehydration removes only Hyrdrogen.

comparison b/w sub and eli

Aslm...
What does this part of the chemistry syllabus means? "(h) show understanding of, and use, the Brønsted-Lowry theory of acids and bases, including the use of the acid-I, base-II concept"
What's the acid-1, base 11 concept means?
