Chemistry: Post your doubts here!

Okay, thanks!

It's C because it has an odd number of electrons- 15.

Oh yeah lol. I was thinking of it as the reactions taking place in the intermediate steps of substitution of Alkanes

The reaction of CH4 and Cl2 is a redox reaction.
Consider this equation: CH4 + Cl2 ---> CH3Cl + HCl
In this equation, Cl goes from 0 to -1 oxidation state, and C goes from -4 to -2. So it IS a redox reaction.

Thus both 1, 2 are correct.

24) The molecule could either be an ALCOHOL or an ETHER. It cannt be an ALDEHYDE or any other molcule with a carbonyl or carboxylic group. Thus (1) is not possible as the reaction can only happen if the molecule was an aldehyde, which it isnt.
(2) this could be possible in the case of an ether or TERTIARY ALCOHOL. It does not show a positive test with DNPH or TOLLENS REAGENT. It can also not be oxidized.
(3) this could be possible in the case of an PRIMARY OR SECONDARY ALCOHOL. It could be oxidized to an aldehyde and ketone respectively.

25) (1) An Aldehy will react with Fehlings Reagent. The Cu+2 ions are reduced whilst the aldehyde is oxidized to carboxylate ion
(2) this is a free radical substituion reaction. No oxidation and reduction whatsoever
(3) Reaction does not even take place

Thanks

B? That shows two p orbitals overlapping parallely.

Correct me If I am wrong but P-orbital have a dumb-bell shaped.Right?
The Answer is B.

Yes.

M/J/12/22 Q3 d(ii) & (e)

 

[Copy Cat]

Yes.

Then why not D?

 

[Dark Destination]

Have there been many significant changes in the syllabus for 2016? Like are a lot of things removed from the syllabus or added?

I don't even know what the hell kinda orbitals are shown in D, but it seems odd. B seems like two P orbitals overlapping parallel.

Yes both...group 4 is removed..I think group 5 was also there before and is removed, a lotta of DNA part is removed, competitive and non competitive enzymes part removed
Carbon13 Nmr, organic synthesis, Nernst equation,Gibbs free and entropy amongst others are added

I wish you said Gibbs and Nernst were removed.:/

Where to study these topics from? :/

Lol its easy only

It's there in the new book
I can send pics if u need

The new book is there on gceguide.

Then why not D?

The answer is D. Two pie orbitals opting for sideways overlapping.

Newly added all topics are easy

It's says B as the answer.
