Question 1

Answer: D

Explanation:

The bromine atoms were added across a double bond. The molecule used was pent-2-ene.

Question 2

Answer: B

Explanation:

They react to form an ester. The alcohol forms the first part of the name, propyl and the
carboxylic acid is the second part of the name, ethanoate.

Question 3

Answer: D

Explanation:

This is a substitution reaction. If excess chlorine is used, multiple substitutions of Cl atoms can
occur forming a whole range of products.

Question 4

Answer: A

Explanation:

The reaction is an addition reaction if both bromine atoms are placed on the molecule.

Question 5

Answer: C

Explanation:

A carboxylic acid will form when a primary alcohol is used. Molecules B and C are primary
alcohols. Molecule B might have a branch in the hydrocarbon chain but it is still a primary
alcohol.

Question 6

Answer: A

Explanation:

The amide bond is formed from the reaction between an amine and a carboxylic acid. The amine
will be ethanamine and the acid pentanoic acid.

Question 7

Answer: B

Explanation:

The first test indicates the presence of a C=C double bond as addition reaction occurred between
the hydrocarbon and the Br2.
The seconds test indicates an acid as the CO2 (g) was produced.

Question 8

Answer: A

Explanation:

The NaOH would convert the amine to an alcohol and the Cr2O72- would convert this to a
carboxylic acid.

Question 9

Answer: A

Explanation:

Option A is the only balanced half-equation.

Question 10

Answer: B

Explanation:

The reaction of 0.5 mole of propene will form 0.5 mole of propane. The mass of 0.5 mole of
propane is 22 g.
