30-C1.3s

Analyzing and Interpreting:     analyze data and apply mathematical and conceptual models to develop and assess possible solutions • follow appropriate IUPAC guidelines when writing the names and formulas of organic compounds (AI–NS1) • compile and organize data to compare the properties of structural isomers; e.g., pairs of hydrocarbon isomers and primary, secondary and tertiary alcohols (AI–NS1) [ICT C6–4.2] • interpret the results of a test to distinguish between a saturated and an unsaturated aliphatic, using aqueous bromine or potassium permanganate solutions (AI–NS2) • analyze the contributions and limitations of scientific and technological knowledge in societal decision making, in relation to the costs and benefits of societal use of petrochemicals, pharmaceuticals and pesticides (AI–SEC2) [ICT F3–4.1] • explore aspects of present-day reliance on extracted or synthesized nutrients, with consideration of the synergy of compounds (reliance on vitamin supplements, meal replacements and nutraceuticals versus traditional methods of consuming natural foods) (AI–SEC2).
