like I guess the esterification knowledge could still be partially used for the last question explaining the reaction conditions like I did but it was tad too overkill even for the 7 marker and the response felt really out of balance with the idk 2 pages of esterification thing
and the other half the time we were trying to write practicals up in such a way as to get the "A" grade which barely any of us got in the end
people in our class would profoundly relate to this
also
where were the questions on soap/detergents, bioethanol and biodiesel
or any of those polymers
or any of those colours of precipitation reactions or flame tests
or anything
I thought it wouldn't be a bad idea to add some more detail to my response while I was at it, but yeah they only really asked for one (or two? was that a different q?) equation/s
like I used a lot of space to properly define the bronsted lowry theory (and all the acid and conjugate base stuff), had an example of both, used the NH4Cl as an example of a Bronsted Lowry reaction (which isn't arrhenius, thus generalising it) and also the disadvantages as per above (and of...
I also did the quadratic formula method just to make sure the answer agrees with the "estimated" one (by a lot of decimal points), so probably no chance that will lose a mark (assuming of course you set out the quadratic equation properly idk)
they'll probably be looking more to see if people...
