What is the IUPAC name for the compound

A.

1-chloro-2-methylprop-2,3-ene

B.

1-chloro-2-methylprop-2-ene

C.

3-chloro-2-methylprop-1-ene

D.

3-chloro-2methylprop-1,2-ene

Correct answer is C

It is vital you rearrange/redraw the structure if confusing this will make naming the compound easier. the name of the compound above is 3 - chloro-2- methyl prop - 1 - ene.

The above graph shows a typical heating curve from the solid phase through the liquid phase to the gaseous phase of a substance. Which part of the curve shows solid and liquid in equilibrium?

A.

T

B.

U

C.

X

D.

Y

Correct answer is A

point T shows solid-liquid equilibrium. At this point, the substance been heated has begun to melt but has not completely melted forming a solid liquid mixture.

If in the graph above 1 dm 3 of a saturated solution of KCL is cooled from 80°C, the mass of crystals deposited will be [K = 39, Cl = 35.5]

A.

7.45 g

B.

14.90 g

C.

74.50 g

D.

149.00 g

Correct answer is D

Trace the graph to the y-axis to obtain the solubility of the salt at 80°C and at the point where the straight line touches the y-axis, the solubility of the salt at these respective temperatures is 4mol\dm3 and 6mol\dm3 solubility of salt that will crystallize out = 6- 4 = 2mol\dm3 therefore mass of salt deposited = solubility x molar mass of salt 2 x 74.5 = 149.00g
