Is 'isomer' in the syllabus? (1 Viewer)

[HeyJes]

Do we need to learn about isomers?
I've noticed that there were types of questions about isomers appeared in past paper, but I couldn't find it in syllabus anyway and it has become a concern that I havent come across about these sort of questions

So is it in the syllabus O_O

Hey many thanks!
Btw do they ask prelim stuff in HSC?
I thought it was all about yr 12?

search the yr 11 chem syllabus.... isomers might be in yr 11 chem syllabus...... after all, yr11 chem is assumed knowledge for yr12

plus... i'd suspect isomer's in yr12 chem as well.... especially in the organic chemistry section of production of materials


EDIT: Nope... i'm wrong.... check "chemical monitoring and management"....... some dot points in the section about the atmosphere.


EDIT 2: Just these two dotpoints:

identify and name examples of isomers (excluding geometrical and optical) of haloalkanes up to eight carbon atoms

and
gather, process and present information from secondary sources including simulations, molecular model kits or pictorial representations to model isomers of haloalkanes

The concepts, no .... but ... it makes life much much easier if you understood how to do all the calculations (e.g. molarity), recognise immediately the formulae for various substances, etc.

Well, it was for me

They definitely won't ask about optical isomers

 

[HeyJes]

They definitely won't ask about optical isomers

If you look at past paper, you will notice some questions about isomers in recent years...

I remember it came in 2011 exam

That one is C right? Pretty sure it's C

Sometimes we can face many questions that are out of syllabus.So we should be ready for such type of circumstances.
