W can react with 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine to give orange ppt W does not react with acidified potassium dichromate i.e. W is aromatic ketone, but not alcohol nor aldehyde. 1 The structure of W is: O C CH3 C CH3 H 1 W is reduced by LiAlH4 to give S and S can turn acidified potassium dichromate green i.e. S is alcohol 1 The structure of S is OH CH3 C C H H CH3 1 8.

Not correct The large difference of electronegativity between two atoms cause a dipole bond and dipole moment 1 The molecule may have net resultant dipole moment because of asymmetrical shape / dipole moments do not cancel out. Section B 1. A 1+1 Multiple Choices 2. A (4 marks) 3. B 4. D 4 3 (e) The molecules of hexanoic acid are held together by hydrogen bonds as well as van der Waals’ forces while the molecules of ethyl butanoate are held together by weak van der Waals’ forces only. [2] Since the strength of hydrogen bonds is greater than that of van der Waals’ forces, more energy is needed to overcome strong hydrogen bonds between hexanoic acid molecules during boiling process. [2] 5. (a) Hydrogen gas [1] (b) The general formula is CnH2nO2. [1] (c) They belong to carboxylic acids. [1] (d) The functional group is . [1] Test the compounds with sodium carbonate solution. [1] They will give colourless gas. [1] (e) The third member is propanoic acid. [1] The fourth member is butanoic acid. [1] 6. (a) It contains OH group and CHO group. [2] (Accept ‘ROR group’ as answer.) (b) It belongs to aldehydes. [1] (c) It is soluble in water [1] because it contains OH group and CHO group which can form hydrogen bonds with water molecules. [1] (d) It is used as an ingredient in perfume. [1] II. Multiple Choice Questions 1. B CH3CH2CONH2 undergoes alkaline hydrolysis to give carboxylate ion, CH3CH2COO. 2. C Propan-2-ol reacts with an oxidizing agent to give a ketone. However, ketones are resistant to further oxidation. 3. D The acid hydrolysis does not go to completion because it is a reversible reaction. 4. B Butanoic acid is reduced to butan-1-ol. 5. B The synthetic route is 1. (a) [1] 4 [1] (b) In CO2, the carbon atom forms 2 double bond pairs with oxygen atoms and no lone pair is left [1] so the molecule is linear. [1] In SO2, the sulphur atom forms 2 double bond pairs with oxygen atoms and 1 lone pair is left [1] so the molecule is V-shaped. [1] 2. (a) Differences in electronegativity among the constituent atoms only ensure the presence of polar bond(s). [1] A molecule is polar only when there is a non-zero overall dipole moment, [1] which is determined by the vector sum of all the dipole moments. [1] (b) The structure of the substance is so symmetrical [1] that all the dipole moments present cancel out. [1] 3. (a) & (b) [1] For 3 correct polar bond dipole moments [1] and net dipole moment [1] Trigonal planar [1] (c) The statement is incorrect. [1] A molecule may contain many different polar covalent bonds and each bond has different magnitudes in dipole moment. [1] Only when symmetrical molecules with only one type of polar bond can be non-polar. [1] Also a symmetrical molecule may not be symmetrical in a way that all the dipole moments completely cancel out. [1] 4. (a) X should be greater than 36. [1] Although both chemicals A and B have about the same molecular mass, B is polar while A is non-polar. [1] Hence, the van der Waals’ forces between molecules of B are stronger. [1] (b) Y should be greater than X. [1] Although both chemicals B and C have the same molecular mass and are polar, the OH group in molecules of C allows the formation of hydrogen bond, [1] which needs extra energy to overcome [1] and thus the boiling point of C is greater. (c) The student was wrong. Although both (CH3)3COH and chemical C have the same molecular mass and both of them can form hydrogen bonds, [1] the branching of the hydrocarbon chain reduces the surface area of contact between (CH3)3COH molecules. [1] Therefore, (CH3)3COH 5 should have a lower boiling point. 5. (a) C7H6O2 [1] (b) 120 because of the trigonal planar structure. [1] (c) Compound B would have a higher melting point due to the formation of intermolecular hydrogen bonds. [1] All the molecules are held more firmly and greater amount of energy is required to overcome the attraction. [1] Compound A would have a lower melting point because of the formation of intramolecular hydrogen bonds. [1] It is possible due to the close proximity of the hydroxyl and aldehyde groups. [1] The formation of intramolecular hydrogen bonds lowers the possibilities of formation of intermolecular hydrogen bonds. [1] As a result, lower energy is required for melting, leading to a lower melting point. (d) Compound A [1] has a greater dipole moment because the dipole moments arising from the polar groups (OH and CHO) cannot be cancelled in 1,2-position. [1] However, it would be cancelled in a much greater extent in 1,4-position. [1] II. Multiple Choice Questions 1. A Non-octet structures cannot exist in non-metal elements like hydrogen, oxygen and nitrogen. 2. A 3. A There are 7 outermost shell electrons in I, shared with 4 electrons from Cl, together with 1 incoming electron, totally 12 electrons, i.e. violates the octet rule. 9.
