in Q37 why the first statement is correct? I mean the empirical formula has 1 atom of O, so there must be aldehyde :/

in Q26 idk wht im doin wrond I tried it many times, but my answer isn't in the options :$ :/

in Q9 I coul make out tht glucose and fructose are structural isomers so option A and C is ruled out but cant understand how osmotic pressure is affected

Q29 don't get it at all :/


Btw its http://papers.xtremepapers.com/CIE/Cambridge International A and AS Level/Chemistry (9701)/9701_w11_qp_12.pdf
Q37 (D)
Q26 (B)
Q9 (D)
Q29 (D)
Q35 (B)
Q40 (A)

Pls help me with these questions some one :/ :/

one question plz help
in gas phase Al nd a transition element require the same amount of energy to form one mole of an ion with a +2 charge
A: Co
B:Cr
C: Cu
D:Ni
pleasee help!!!
answer is A but how on earth do we come to know tht

how is the bond energy in graphite stronger than that in diamond?:/
a very interesting question.
in graphene/graphite all CC bonds are not single bonds. they are neither double bonds. it like one p-orbital free electron a double bond for all of the six bonds. in the data booklet you will find "C=C(benzene)" value. it is much higher than C-C.
each bond in graphite is 520kj/mol while in diamond it is 350
3(520)-4(350)=160kj/mol
it means that diamond to graphite is exothermic.
just to be clear i used novice language knowingly. to read about it you can google "bonding in benzene" or read about it in the coursebook in the A2 section.

The total of first 2 ionization energies is same.

a question plz
in an experiment b mol of HI were put into a sealed vessel under pressure p.
ateqilibrium ,x mol of HI had dissociated
2HI--- H2 +I2
now tell how its answer is x2/4(b-x)2
i dont get how the 4 came

Suchal Riaz can you tell me where from did you read the ionization energy doesn't effect the Melting point?
Jim Clark :
Interestingly, if you compare the ionisation energies with the electrical conductivity of some elements, there is no simple relationship between the two. In Group 1 (usually a well-behaved group as far as trends are concerned) although ionisation energies fall as you go down the group, conductivity falls as well (Li excepted) which is the opposite of what you might expect. There is a table of electrical conductivities on http://periodictable.com/Properties/A/ElectricalConductivity.an.html which you could explore if you could be bothered. In Group 2, the first three conductivities are similar, and then you get the same sort of fall as in Group 1.

Q13

Also, how does it hydrochloric acid behave as acid when it is added to NaCl,
And H2SO4 conc. is used for hydrolosis or dehydration, and what about NaOH,

I need urgent help please !!!
