On occasion, it has been found that the oxidation of borneol doesn't go to completion (possibly because of poor stirring or insufficient Oxone). This reaction would probably be easy to monitor via TLC, however. Which component should have a lower Rf, and why

level 4 to level 2 : ))

answer : third trial had the contaminated sample and the correct value for dhrxn should be 1000 kj/mol

explanation :

let us write down the given equations

equation 1 :

equation 2 :

equation 3 :

let us use hess's law to find out which 2 equations can be added to get the third equation.

let us reverse equation 2 and multiply it by 2. the new equation that we get is,

equation 4 :

let us add equation 1 & 4

the above equation is similar to equation 3 but has different value for dhrxn.

therefore third trial had the contaminated sample and the correct value for dhrxn should be 1000 kj/mol
