Markscheme Content + Mistake Flashcards
If they show another period and ask to compare the trends , what can you say if some are kinda different and dint know why
A bit less and don’t know why= perhaps weaker covalent bonds
A lot more and don’t know why= probably suggests some sort of covalent bonding is found
Remember UNCERTAINTY from a burette reading
Requires a reading from top and bottom so two readings = twice the standard uncertainty
For colours , and they say identify the species but it becomes a compound but you know the colour only forms in solution?
How ti write it
MAKE SURE TO WRITE in aqueous form, because otherwise it won’t form a colour , only when aqeuous !
Be more specific when talking about indicators and colours in low pH and high?
Just mention both times that the acid reacts with A- or alklai reacting with H+
So when acidic, acid reacts, so equilibrium shift to lift (reduce h+)
When alkali, ALKLI reacts, so shift to right (to increase H+)
Remember how to convert from g/cm3 conc to mol
Don’t lack, divide by fm
(Now can use appeoximation formula to find out H+ and thus pH for a weak acid if you know Ka)
Saturated compounds can have general formula CN H2n?
HOW
Cyclic alkanes
