YesWhat was the Answer of question 5 ? the 2 isomers ? I had a cis-trans and an optical isomer pair are these correct?

anyway, whatever it is, its worth one mark!I stared at that compound for 5 minutes. It was CHO, everybody's accepting that there was an HO in the end. That's got to be an aldehyde.
Sorry its (CH3)3CHO,i wrote that by mistake and i did correct itIt it was (CH3)2CHO, then the last carbon has only three bonds attached if u consider it to be an alcohol . Secondly, structural formula always matters. If u show me any compound from anywhere which is an alcohol and has a CHO in the end, I'll accept that I'm wrong then.

you know what if this can relieve you then yes you are right, we are wrong!See, as I said it before if there's a hydrogen between a C and an O, that's impossible for an alcohol. And it was important as then you had to mention the colour changes in the table
It was (CH3)3CHO, There is no way it can be an aldehyde, that way carbon's gonna make weird 5 bonds dude The only color change was for the compound BSee, as I said it before if there's a hydrogen between a C and an O, that's impossible for an alcohol. And it was important as then you had to mention the colour changes in the table
exactly! and there are 7 points allocated on the 1st table and 3 on the 2nd table (one for identifying B, one for initial colour and the last point for the change in colour)!It was (CH3)3CHO, There is no way it can be an aldehyde, that way carbon's gonna make weird 5 bonds dude The only color change was for the compound B
dont get me wrong but your organic seems a bit weak,i used to make such silly mistakes tooSee, as I said it before if there's a hydrogen between a C and an O, that's impossible for an alcohol. And it was important as then you had to mention the colour changes in the table
Okay bro. It was an alcohol with a hydrogen having a bond with C, as well as oxygen. Maybe our chemistry books need a change now as we have new philosophers here.It was (CH3)3CHO, There is no way it can be an aldehyde, that way carbon's gonna make weird 5 bonds dude The only color change was for the compound B
^Yep yepexactly! and there are 7 points allocated on the 1st table and 3 on the 2nd table (one for identifying B, one for initial colour and the last point for the change in colour)!
lol! what does philosophy have to do with chemistry?! in anyway, its only worth one mark!Okay bro. It was an alcohol with a hydrogen having a bond with C, as well as oxygen. Maybe our chemistry books need a change now as we have new philosophers here.
We are here telling you what the fact was, certainly not accepting any sarcasm. Thank you, take care!Okay bro. It was an alcohol with a hydrogen having a bond with C, as well as oxygen. Maybe our chemistry books need a change now as we have new philosophers here.
Were they seven or 6? And please, CIE examiners that not that lenient that they'll give u straight marks for just writing a letter and a color change.exactly! and there are 7 points allocated on the 1st table and 3 on the 2nd table (one for identifying B, one for initial colour and the last point for the change in colour)!
For almost 10 years, the site XtremePapers has been trying very hard to serve its users.
