    The document outlines the assessment criteria for an NCEA Level 2 Chemistry assessment on organic compounds. It describes the requirements to achieve at the Achievement, Merit, and Excellence levels. For Achievement, students must name or draw organic compounds and give accounts of their properties using chemistry vocabulary. For Merit, students make and explain links between compound structure and properties. For Excellence, students provide elaborated, justified, and comparative explanations linking structure and properties. The document also provides examples of assessment questions and expected answers at each level.

    Assessment Schedule 2012


    Chemistry: Demonstrate understanding of the properties of selected organic compounds
    (91165)
    Assessment Criteria
    Achievement
    Demonstrate understanding involves
    naming and / or drawing structural
    formulae of selected organic compounds
    (no more than eight carbons in the
    longest chain) and giving an account of
    their chemical and physical properties.
    This requires the use of chemistry
    vocabulary, symbols and conventions.

    Achievement with Merit


    Demonstrate in-depth understanding
    involves making and explaining links
    between structure, functional groups
    and the chemical properties of selected
    organic compounds. This requires
    explanations that use chemistry
    vocabulary, symbols and conventions.

    Achievement with Excellence


    Demonstrate comprehensive
    understanding involves elaborating,
    justifying, relating, evaluating,
    comparing and contrasting, or using
    links between the structure,
    functional groups and the chemical
    properties of selected organic
    compounds. This requires the
    consistent use of chemistry
    vocabulary, symbols and
    conventions.

    H2 (/Pt)

    (b)

    No; for a molecule to exist as geometric


    isomers, it must contain a double bond, and
    each carbon (involved in the double bond)
    must have two different atoms / groups
    attached to it. Compound A has a double
    bond, but the atoms attached to one carbon
    are both the same (two hydrogen atoms) so
    it does not form a geometric isomer.

    In (b) correct
    answer (no) with

    answer (yes)

    recognises
    requirement for
    double bond in
    geometric
    isomers.

    In (b) No. The


    carbons of the
    double bond need
    two different
    atoms. This has
    two atoms that are
    the same.

    (H2) is correct.
    In (a) reagent 3
    (PCl3 / PCl5 /
    SOCl2) is correct.

    Merit

    C is the major product and D is the minor


    product.
    There are 2 possible products because when
    the double bond is broken, an H (or OH)
    will bond to one C (and a OH group (or H)
    will bond with the other C). The product
    will depend on which (C) the H (or the
    OH) bond to.
    C must be

    Draws an alcohol
    structure.

    since

    product E is

    i.e. both

    functional groups are on the second carbon


    atom.

    would be CH3CH2CH2CH2Cl.
