I need help forming a hypothesis for a formal organic chemistry lab report. My TA stated that it's better to construct it not like a typical hypothesis statement ( If...then..). How would I do that and can you give examples of some? I've been going back and forth on trying to create it and if it helps the report is over the Wittig reaction...

Answer #1

You can set hypothesis of the type:

The use of copper as catalyst increases the rate of aldolic condensation or

Ionic liquids act as efficient extractants for the purification of reaction mixtures

which are 100% valid hypothesis and don't obey to the if... then... formula. Without further information about your experiments I can't help you more precisely!
