LAWL i lost 4 as well. 3 actually, i need to learn to count

Still don't like this question tho, 18:

1-propene reacts with H20

Is this a hydration or hydrolysis? Its both!?.... bad question i think.

Also q1 if you have then you have to consider the effect of 2 in the oxidation equation.... T.T I usually ignore the coefficients but it not a coefficient is it....

yeah and last question : It can be fermentation as well as a redox/oxidation *sigh* @ solutions.

I remember this exam.  Yeah, I wrote fermentation and was all wtf when the solutions said oxidation.  What should we write on the exam?

And yeah, water plus ethene = hydrolysis, as you are breaking the double bond.

Sigh, so close to getting 100 now.

For the exams i think we'll wait for Mao to act as arbiter here.

Question says: What type of chemical reaction is this. Fermentation is as valid as oxidation.

~Alkene + water is hydration or addition. It's not hydrolosis as the molecule is not split.

~I got that one wrong too, for the exact same reason...

~Yeah, either.

I didn't know this. Thanks m@tty  :-*. Previously my understanding was hydrolysis = water as a reactant.



Now hydrolysis = water as reactant and splits molecule.

Damn it, in the NEAP book, they say it is hydrolysis.   >:(

Lol this is where i was basing my knowledge off!

Is it considered hydrolysis?
I thought hydrolysis was just the chemical breakdown of a compound due to reaction with water.

~Yeah, either. Though I'd say the more chemist like answer would be redox/oxidation.

Q17 is good.

It challenges your preconceptions.

Like i only ever think of an atom as one not as in kagillions. When it asks for number of electrons im like.... yeah 2 electrons  :-\

You should look at wikipedia more and NEAP less... .....hydration....


What's question 17? Can't be bothered finding this exam...
