sodium hydrogen carbonate is soluble in water

  • acts as a carbonate with acids

water droplets can only form in products of reaction during gentle heating - as there is a cooler surface for the droplets to condense on.

  • if not the water vapour will escape into the atmosphere

  • amount refers specifically to mol. if you see amount, then always compare moles

basicity allows you to compare volume ratio when 2 different acids are used

organic Chemistry to prove that a bunch of compounds are in homologous series there are 2 factors to include in answer:

  • can be represented by same general formula (state it then)
  • all have same functional group (state it then) Hydrocarbons Main Note

first 4 alkenes and alkanes:

  • cannot say add aq bromine
  • say: bubble sample into aqueous bromine
  • this is because the first 4 alkenes and alkanes are gaseous states.

electrolysis

  • when there are multiple ions in electrolyte
  • after concentration of 1 decreases in electrolyte then it will be discharged. no need to finish 1 ion before other,. just compare conc.
  • thus the electrolyte will be contaminated with bromine
