  • 5(a)(i)[1]

    presence of an acid

  • 5(a)(ii)[1]

    oxidation

  • 5(a)(iii)[3]

    all single bonding dot and cross pairs correct (1)

    double C=O bond dot and cross pairs are correct (1)

    Complete diagram is correct (1)

  • 5(b)[6]

    partial (dissociation) (1)

    full / 100% (dissociation) (1)

    both acid colours (1)

    HCl indicating a lower pH acid colour than CH3COOH (1)

    fizzing OR dissolving / disappearing in both (1)

    either observation happens quicker with HCl (1)

  • 5(c)(i)[1]

    water

  • 5(c)(ii)[1]

    acid (catalyst)

  • 5(c)(iii)[2]

    any one alcohol group on a molecule (1)

    structure of propan-2-ol (1)

  • 5(d)(i)[1]

    the atoms / group of atoms which give (any molecule its) chemical properties

  • 5(d)(ii)[1]

    C3H5O2

  • 5(d)(iii)[2]

    Mr of HO–CH2–CH2–OH = 62 (1)

    %ge = 100 × 32/62 = 52% (1)

  • 5(d)(iv)[2]

    any correct ester link between any two blocks showing all atoms and all bonds (1)

    correct orientation of 3 inter-block ester links and continuation bonds (1)

  • 5(d)(v)[1]
