For a reaction to occur particles reacting must have a neccessary activation energy (kinetic energy). As temperature gets higher, so does the kinetic energy of particles, which can be ilustrated with a Maxwe...

You would add tollen's reagent to both samples. The butanal would form a silver mirror, whereas, butan-2-one would remain unchanged. This is due to the fact that an aldehyde can be oxidised to a carboxylic a...

Given that this is an oral question, there isn't time to prepare in the exam itself. However, these questions follow certain formats which, when learned, make it much more manageable. The first thing to obse...

N 2 (g)+3H 2 (g) ⇋ 2NH 3 (g) ΔH=-92kJmol -1 (equation for question above) According to Le Chatelier's principle, a system in dynamic equilibrium will shift the position of equilibrium to minimise the change ...
