Normal conditions are room temperature (around 25degrees) and 1 atomsphere or pressure. The conditions quoted were both higher, way high. So yeah, the rate of formation of methanol would increase in all cases. And for the UPTEENTH TIME, the second reaction was NOT a reversible reaction!!!!! (this is for those who adamantly keep sayin it's an equilibrium).

One more thing about enthalpy change. How was it 129, + or -. mine was coming 400 something :p
I asked some candidate( s ) who got 129 kJper mol , but they took also the enthalpy change of combustion of H2( g ) while making the cycle ( Hess's law ). I thought data of enthalpy change of combustion of H2( g ) was a trick! Because there's no enthalpy change from H2 ( g ) to H2 ( g )!
Anyone else got this?? :confused:

ofcourse there is an enthalpy change of combustion for H2. It forms water on combustion. and since there was 2 moles of H2 you had to multiply the value by two. the answer was -129

I hadn't notice it was SKELETAL formula that was asked for the cis-trans isomer(silly mistake I know) but I saw it like when 5 mins was left, and I hastily drew these. Do you think I'll get my marks?
so what you made is wrong?
because i made the same as youurs!

2 moles of H2?? H2O ?? I looked up for both of these points, as far as I remember. :eek:
maybe I should wear glasses from now on :)

Am not too sure... Because I made these in a hurry (last 5 mins).... Someone on this forum told me you are not supposed to put C and H atoms in a skeletal formula... You drew exactly the same thing?

The carbon-carbon double bond needs to be shown in a structural formula coz it's a functional group.

I wanted to ask that when drawing optical isomers can someone tell me that marks will be deducted for drawing a methyl group as CH3 rather than showing all the 3 bond between carbon and hydrogen

There was no H2O in the equation. but the chart gave the enthalpy of combustion values, so you ha d to include both CO2 and H2O in the Hess's cycle.

Yes yes exactly the same thing :|

Bahahaha xD no one might have done this silly mistake :p i left the emperical formula as CHO because i thought its 1, 1.33, 1.14
Oh shit -_- PFFTTHH
the GT has to be loww :p inshaAllah :)
