Q

What is the polarity of Organic Halides?

A

They may be polar or nonpolar and they may have a relatively non-polar hydrocarbon end and a polar halide end

17
Q

What are addition reactions?

A

When unsaturated hydrocarbons react with small diatomic molecules such as bromine and hydrogen

18
Q

What is a substitution reaction?

A

Breaking a carbon or hydrogen bond in an alkane or an aromatic ring and replacing the hydrogen atom with another group of atoms

19
Q

What do alcohols contain?

A

Hydroxyl groups -OH

20
Q

Why do alcohols boil at higher temperatures?

A

Because of the hydrogen bonds

21
Q

Why are smaller alcohols soluble in water?

A

Because of their size, polarity, and hydrogen bonding

22
Q

What are larger alcohols?

A

Less soluble in water and good solvents

23
Q

Why is alcohol added to gasoline?

A

To reduce harmful emissions

24
Q

What is an old method for creating methanol?

A

Breaking down cellulose found in wood

25
Q

What is the new method for creating methanol?

A

Reacting methane with steam under high pressure

26
Q

How is ethanol prepared?

A

By fermenting sugars from starch like grains

27
Q

What are primary alcohols?

A

Alcohols in which the carbon atom that carries the hydroxyl group is bonded to 1 other carbon atom

28
Q

What are secondary alcohols?

A

Alcohols in which the carbon atom that carries the hydroxyl group is bonded to 2 other carbon atoms

29
Q

What are tertiary alcohols?

A

Alcohols in which the carbon atom that carries the hydroxyl group is bonded to 3 other carbon atoms

30
Q

What are polyalcohols?

A

Alcohols that contain more than one hydroxyl group

31
Q

What is an elimination reaction?

A

Eliminating of atoms from adjacent carbon atoms in an organic molecule in alcohols

32
Q

What is dehydration?

A

A type of elimination reaction where a hydrogen and hydroxide molecule is taken

33
Q

What is dehydrohalogenation?

A

A type of elimination reaction where a hydrogen and a halogen is removed from an alcohol by using a hydroxide
