Am i gonna lose marks for being too accurate in the hsc I swear 90% of trial papers do their calculations with rounded figures at each stage :mad:
Am i using the store button for nothing??
No, you will lose marks if you aren't that accurate though
HSC papers never round until the end
For calcs either write out fractions or all decimal places for working is my recommendation

guys what are the rules for hnmr splitting with like the h atom of a primary/secondary amine and the h atom of an alcohol/carboxyllic acid and stuff like that?? like do they split or not?? or is it different for each circumstance help

Wdym?? I'm 90% sure that hnmr only shows hydrogen environments that are attached to carbons - OH's don't count
Pretty sure but you need to check that

its a separate h environment but no involvement with splitting

Hang on is methanol 2 environments or 1???
H3COH --> does the CH3 count as one H environment and the OH count as another? I'm not bothered to google rn

Proton environments exist wherever there are protons present in the molecule, no matter what they're attached to. @carrotsss is right, there will be 2 peaks on the H-NMR spectrum for methanol.
