Section 10.6. Carboxylic acids and derivatives

This page was part of the support notes for a now-ended Cambridge International A level chemistry syllabus. I have left the notes in place because I became aware that non-CIE students were accessing some parts of them.

If you are a CIE student who has fallen into these pages by mistake, you should go to the notes for the current syllabus by following the link at the bottom of the page.

These notes are no longer accessible from the Main Menus of Chemguide or Chemguideforcie.

Learning outcome 10.6(a)

Learning outcome 10.6(b)

Learning outcome 10.6(g)

Learning outcome 10.6(h)

Learning outcome 10.6(j)

(Statements 10.6(b) and 10.6(g) also contain material which will only be examined at the end of a two year course. I have pointed these out in the relevant places.)
