Chemistry: Post your doubts here!

Sorry I can't.all I can say is that for option a charge on the cation will only determine strength of metallic bonding and lattice energy.ratio of charge will only tell the formula.like Mg has charge +2 and cl-1 so compound formula will be mgcl2.Option c seems appropriate.never heard anything like sum of charges so no simply.

Listen what i can understand from this question without calculating anything is that the second equation shows the enthalpy change of atomization which is an endothermic process (the value is +ve) and the only value which is positive is D

Question 4e)

You can check the ms (Mark Scheme).
The answer is both oxidation and reduction has occurred in one step.
Allyl alcohol is converted into propanal in two steps with out Catalyst:
The first step is reduction (Reduction is Gain of hydrogen, in this case two hydrogen is gained) from the figure while the second is oxidation (As primary alcohol is converted to aldehyde )
But with catalyst as in one step reaction in c, the oxidation and reduction both occur. So that's it.
Hope this helps!

Abby, did you have time to find any physics "factsheets" ?

I've them spread over my hard drive I'm just compiling them. Having a tough time finding the individual documents in data over a terabyte. Their names are weird numbers so cant do a search. Slightly more time please. Hopefully will upload them tonite

i- The double bond will split. The left side will form a ketone and the right side a Carboxylic acid.

ii- both the side chains will change to COOH. I believe it'll be called 1,4 di-benzoic acid.

iii- The secondary alcohol (left) will change to a ketone, the primary (right) will change to a carboxylic acid [i believe aldehyde will be acceptable too as they haven't mentioned if it's heated under reflux or not].

e) Just add two OH across the double bond.

reaction 1: cold KMnO4
reaction 2: K2Cr2O7 + H+ + heat under reflux

If you don't get the products, let me know and I'll draw them.

Can someone please explain protonation??

 

[♣♠ Magnanimous ♣♠]

Can someone please explain protonation??

protonation is addition of proton to an atom, molecule, or ion, forming conjugate acid.

How does oxidation and reduction occur when ally alcohol is converted into propanal using a ruthenium catalyst

Actually with out catalyst you need two steps to convert ally alcohol into propanal, while when you use catalyst they both oxidation and reduction happens.
You won't be asked how but, but i guess ruthenium catalysis both reduction and oxidation so that's why you will get propanal, or else it won't make propanal.

the marking scheme says it all
something like this
sorry coundnt do an exact drawing but i guess will now understand what the ms says

I know its because of the size.But why? :/
