@adamboxer1 @MrARobbins @Chem2006 Seems good to me. Typical as they test if students know the tertiary carbocation forms the major product. They specify major product.

I've written this open letter to @Keir_Starmer & @wesstreeting because, though I am desperately worried about NHS patients over the next 5 days, I know this strike by resident doctors is a desperate act of last resort.

Please read.

@adamboxer1 Also as an aside on the combined paper naming Le Chatelier - come on what’s the point of that mark!

[Miriam travers @flippedchemuk]

@jaylobinalal @adamboxer1 This is paper one and paper two as clearly written on the spec. Gases weren’t on paper 1 so had to be on paper 2.

[Miriam travers @flippedchemuk]

@adamboxer1 It is not ok. Yes there is an example on the spec - purely that an example.
Non specialists would not know the detail of how we name - such as the ‘e’ on the alkyl part as there is a consonant ‘d’ next to it. Also counting carbons within the functional group. NOT OK!!

@adamboxer1 There are so many great sheets out there already tbh

@JasonManford @LondonPalladium @emmanuelstandup Had such a great evening, thanks so much for the love and laughter you always bring :-)

[Helen Clare, Menopause in Schools @HAClare]

This is why I do what I do. I talk to ex-school staff who loved their jobs, were totally committed to it, and are gutted because they couldn't manage symptoms of #menopause and #perimenopause such as menstrual flooding and brain fog in school and left. Let's stop that happening.

@Matt_Pinner I round to the next 10. So 30 +60 =90
Then take away the difference of 4+1 =5. So 90-5 =85.
That’s what going on in my head!

@Katelomax1 Struggling with Q1 here. Keep leaving it but need to get going on t
It now!
