Core practical 4 risk assessment

If you type it up and stick it in your book, you can gain

outcome 5a as well as 5b
Outcome 5b
• You have to research the risks associated with core practical 4 –
hydrolysis of halogenoalkanes
• References need to be cited correctly
• Author, Title, page, Publisher, Year
• Book - C. Bennett, How to survive AS Chemistry, pages 3-7, Hodder
Education, 2023
• Research journal - C. Bennett, 2023, A reflective essay on surviving
AS chemistry, The International Journal of BSK, 1(20), Page 224-227
• Each and every chemical in the correct state (liquid or aqueous)
must be researched for the hazards
• You can use Cleapps but must cite who wrote it
• It can’t just be a website link alone, but a web address can be
included in the reference
Chemical list and other risks
• Aqueous silver nitrate • Hot water and burns
• Ethanol • Glassware and cuts
• 1-chlorobutane • Trips and falls
• 2-bromobutane • Water in electrical outlets
• 1-bromobutane • Naked flames
A risk assessment is not complete
• 1-iodobutane unless there is a suggestion to be
• 2-bromo, 2-methylpropane followed so that risk is minimized.
