Worked practice questions

Polythene is best classified as an:

  1. Inorganic polymer of a silicon backbone for industry
  2. Addition polymer of ethene monomers via C=C linkage
  3. Condensation polymer of ethanol with ethane backbone
  4. Natural polymer found in the bark of certain Kerala trees
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: B. Addition polymer of ethene monomers via C=C linkage

Polythene is formed by addition polymerisation of ethene (CH$_2$=CH$_2$) into (CH$_2$CH$_2$)$_n$.

Order the atomic models as they were proposed

Read exercise and reference answers
Steps
  1. Dalton: the atom is the ultimate indivisible particle
  2. Thomson: a sphere of positive charge with electrons embedded
  3. Rutherford: a tiny dense nucleus with electrons revolving around it
  4. Bohr: electrons in fixed circular orbits of definite energy
  5. Schrodinger: a wave equation giving energy states and orbitals
syllabus walks through them in this order, each answering what the previous one could not: Dalton 1808, Thomson 1898, Rutherford 1909, Bohr 1913, Schrodinger 1926. Source: syllabus Chemistry Part I, Ch 2 Structure of Atom.
