Questions about the Alcohols poster

What’s on the Alcohols poster?

A 4-row table: Class · Oxidises to · Conditions. Oxidation products by class. Primary — Aldehyde — Distil off immediately; Primary — Carboxylic acid — Reflux with excess oxidant; Secondary — Ketone — Reflux; Tertiary — No reaction — No H on the C-OH carbon. Acidified potassium dichromate turns orange to green when reduced. Tertiary alcohols leave it orange — that is the test.

Who is the Alcohols poster for?

Alcohols belongs to the Chemistry section rather than to a school year, because physical science is not something one grade owns. Anyone learning organic can pin it up — a beginner, a student mid-course, or someone revising years later.

When should you use the Alcohols poster?

Classification depends on how many carbons are attached to the C-OH carbon. A wall chart earns its place by being glanceable from where the work is happening, so Alcohols belongs on the wall where that physical science work actually happens, within glancing distance, rather than filed away.

What other posters go with Alcohols?
