Kuiz Kimia Kebangsaan Malaysia 2011
86 students from my school were taking K3M 2011 this year. Hopefully more students will be awarded Sijil Merit, Sijil Kepujian & Sijil Cemerlang.
Pocket Warmer
This pocket warmer use chemicals that react to release heat. The heat given off through exothermic reaction can be used to warm up body. Mountain climbers bring pocket warmer when they are high in the mountain. It can be used to lessen the pain of aching muscles.

Esterification Reaction
Esterification occurs between carboxylic acids and alcohols.
The colourfull notes from my students(5H) show reaction between ethanoic acid and different alcohols(methanol, ethanol, propanol and butanol).

Isomers of butene
Isomers of butene |
Isomerism occurs in alkene due to
- branching
- position of carbon-carbon double bond
Photos show possible isomers for butene, C4H8. Can you draw their strutural formulae and name them?
Their names are as follows:
Top: but-1-ene
Left: 2-methylprop-1-ene
Right: but-2-ene
Their names are as follows:
Top: but-1-ene
Left: 2-methylprop-1-ene
