2001 Section B
This question asks to draw the structural formula of C3H603.
Q8(a)(i) Does it matter what branch you put the Oh on e.g, why can it not be:
..............................................H...H...O(Double Bond with C)
........................................H - C - C - C - OH
.............................................OH..H
The answer is:
.............................................H...H...O(Double Bond with C)
.......................................H - C - C - C - OH
............................................H....OH............

Hmmm... the answer is the second one.
This one:
The clue is that in the question it says '2 - hydroxypropanoic acid'. Therefore, the -OH group should be attatched to the 2nd C atom.

I found that 2001 paper really hard compared to other chemistry years and prelims, etc. Does anyone agree?
