Ok for anyone who reads the math subforum you know they have a forum game going on where people pose maths questions to eachother and the rest of the forum has to get the answer.
I think this is a cool idea as it gets you thinking and imo doing problems are the best way to learn, (anyone who has tried to read a fluid mechanics textbook will vouch for this).
So I am proposing a game for the chemistry forum where people have to work out what chemical X is from given information, first person to guess posts information on a new chemical X.
So I will give the first question as an example.
Compound X is a Colourless Organic liquid, with a pungent fruity smell.
X gives a yellow/orange precipitate on reaction with 2-4-Dinitrophenylhydrasine.
on reaction with iodine and sodium hydroxide. X yields a pale yellow precipitate with an antiseptic smell.
When reacted with Ammoniacal Silver nitrate solution and heated it produces a silver mirror on the walls of the test tube.
What is X?
