This document contains a chemistry exam from Maktab Sultan Abu Bakar with multiple choice and structured questions. It covers topics like isomerism, organic reactions, mechanisms, kinetics, and acidity. The questions test understanding of concepts like geometric isomers, reaction types, rate laws, inductive effects, elimination reactions, and organic reaction mechanisms. The document provides context for a high school level chemistry exam in Malaysia assessing various fundamental chemistry topics.

16. a) Each correct structure = 1 x 4 i. ii. iii. iv. b) Geometrical isomer present @ each C in C=C is surrounded by 2 different atoms / group of atoms [1]
cis - isomer trans - isomer (Structures [1] label cis trans [1] )
17. correct type of reaction [1] x 4 reagent [1] x 4 Type of reaction Reagent I Free radical substitution Br 2 under UV / hv ii. Elimination Alumina @ conc. H 2 SO 4
under heating iii. Oxidation Cold, dilute KMnO 4 /H +
@ OH - iv. Nucleophilic substitution Ethanolic conc. NH 3
under reflux
18. a) i. Calculate mole [1] ; stating empirical formula [1] Element Carbon, C Hydrogen, H Mass 92.3 7.7 Mole 92.3/12 = 7.7 7.7 / 1 = 7.7 Mol ratio 7.7 / 7.7 = 1 7.7 / 7.7 = 1 Empirical formula = CH ii. (CH) n = 104 ; (13)
x n = 104 ; n = 8 Molecular formula = C 8 H 8 [1] Structure [1]
iii. Major [1] Minor [1] (no label only 1)
iv. to produce polystyrene / container. 18 .b) Each structure = 1 m x 8 A : CH 3 CH 2 Cl / AlCl 3 B : Cl 2 ; uv C : D : I 2 in NaOH E : F : CH 3 COCl / AlCl 3
b) i. rate = k[CH 3 CH 2 CH 2 CH 2 Cl][CN - ] / CN - is first order [1] - increasing CN - will increase the rate of reaction [1] ii. - rate of reaction increased [1] Since C-Br bond length is longer / bond strength weaker [1] c) m1 : 2-chloro-2-methylpropane [1] m2 : [1] m3 : steric hindrance [1]
20.a) m1 : Acidity decrease according to order [1]
m2 : cyclohexane is electron-donating / positive inductive [1] m3 : caused alkoxide more readily to accept proton @ cause equilibrium shift to left [1] m4 : benzene is electron withdrawring / negative inductive [1] m5 : caused phenol more readily to donate proton @ caused equilibrium shift to right [1] m6 : NO 2 gives negative inductive / electron withdrawing / stabilised phenoxide ion formed [1]
20. b) Alternative 1 : Reagent : acidified KMnO 4 / H + [1] Observation : purple colour decolourised by cyclohexanol but not by phenol [1] Equation : [1]
Alternative 2 : Reagent : bromine water [1] Observation : brown colour decolourised and white precipitate is formed when added to phenol [1] Equation : bromination of phenol [1]
20 c) m1 : Saytzeff rule : in elimination of H-X or H 2 O, H is preferable to eliminate from neighbouring C with less H [1] m2 : reagent : alumina / conc. H 2 O under heating [1] m3 : Structure of 2,3-dimethylpentan-3-ol [1]
