States of matter for ozone depletion (1 Viewer)

[thebigticket]

Do we need to write the state of matter e.g g , aq in the ozone depletion equations in the hsc or would we get marked down for it?

 

[ellie95]

I don't think we put states for these

 

[Riproot]

Nope.

I don't think a radical is truly in a "state" according to HSC.

And also, there is never an aqueous part to the reactions. Haha

 

[Alkanes]

If you don't know it. Don't write it.

Does this seem write for the equations of the free radicals:

CCLF3+ UV LIGHT>>>>>>>>> CF3 + CL.
CL. + O3>>>>>>>> CLO + O2
CLO + O>>>>>>>> CL. + O2

yep! except that ClO is also a radical, and O is also a radical.

Thanks so much, yay i got it right!! I learn most chemistry myself my teachers are not as good as I'd like them to be

 

[deswa1]

Don't you guys also put (g) for O2 etc.?

 

[someth1ng]

I put (g) for all of them and that's what they do in Jacaranda, so I don't think it's a huge problem either way.
