c) Catalysts are not consumed after the reaction so they can always be 1
reused after buying them without incurring any additional cost.
Catalysts speeds up the rate of reaction of industrial processes, which 1
means that less cost is incurred since processes run for a shorter period
of time, hence saving cost.

A6a) Chemical formula for each subsequent member from HCHO to CH3CHO
and C2H5CHO differs by a CH2 unit.
Any 2
They each have the same functional group of -CHO.
Their physical properties differ gradually from one member to the next
b) C3H7CHO 1

c) i) Isomers are organic compounds with the same chemical formula 1
but different structural formula.
Ethanol and methoxymethane are isomers as they have the same 1
chemical formula of C2H5O but different structural formulas
Ethanal is not an isomer of ethanol and methoxymethane because 1
it has a different chemical formula of C2H4O

d) The shorter the chain length of the diamine, the higher the melting point 1
Nylon 4,6 has a shorter diamine chain length compared to nylon 6,6 and 1
has a higher melting point
The longer the chain of the dicarboxylic acid, the lower the melting point
Nylon 6,12 has a longer dicarboxylic acid chain length compared to nylon 1
6,10 and nylon 6,6 and the melting point decreased from nylon 6,6 to
nylon 6,12.

B8a) N2 + 3 H2 → 2 NH3 1
According to the equation, 1 mol of nitrogen gas reacts with 3 mols of 1
hydrogen gas to form ammonia, since molar volume of gases are
constant at a fixed temperature and pressure, the mol ratio corresponds
to the volume ratio.
