describe the relative reactivity of the elements as oxidising agents
(a) describe hydrogen bonding, limited to molecules containing N–H and O–H groups, including ammonia and water as simple examples (b) use the concept of hydrogen bonding to explain the anomalous properties of H\(_2\)O (ice and water): • its relatively high melting and boiling points • its relatively high surface tension • the density of the solid ice compared with the liquid water
describe: (a) the complete and incomplete combustion of alkanes (b) the free-radical substitution of alkanes by \( Cl_2 \) or \( Br_2 \) in the presence of ultraviolet light, as exemplified by the reactions of ethane
