Q

rules of alkanes being aliphatic/alicyclic/aromatic

A

straight/branched chain aliphatic = CnH2n
aliphatic with alicyclic = CnH2n-2
could also be aromatic

Q

functional group of esters

19
Q

where does the R-C=O part of esters come from

A

carboxylic acid

20
Q

where dos the -R’ part of the ester come from

21
Q

what is the structure of an acyl chloride

A

O=C-Cl connected to an R group By the C

22
Q

are acyl chlorides more or less reactive than carboxylic acids

A

more reactive

23
Q

what is the functional group of a nitrile

A

R-C=(triple bond) N

24
Q

what is the structure of an amine

A

N surrounded by 2 Carbon chains/hydrogen and 1 carbon chain

25
give an example of an amine
ammonia acts as an amine
26
what is the functional group of an amide
O=C-N-H
27
what bond does an amide have
peptide bond formed by condensation reaction
28
define primary alcohol
2+ hydrogens of carbon next to functional groups -(nitrogen if amino acid)
29
what is a secondary alcohol
1 hydrogen on the carbon next to functional group
30
what is a tertiary alcohol
no hydrogens of carbon/nitrogen with functional group
31
how to name regular alcohol
propan -1 - ol
32
how to name an alcohol when there are other functional groups on the molecule
3 - hydroxy - propanoic acid
33
where are primary, secondary and tertiary alcohols located on the carbon chain
primary - end of chain secondary - middle of chain tertiary - in middle of chain with branch (on carbon with branch)
34
are alcohols soluble in water and why
yes - O has 2 pairs of unpaired electrons that can form hydrogen bonds with hydrogens on water
35
wat are the 4 ways of making alcohols
1 Fermentation (GCSE) 2 Hydration of alkenes - industrial process 3 Nucleophilic substitution of haloalkanes using OH- (from NaOH) 4 Breaking down an ester (hydrolysis) (U6)
36
describe what you would see during complete combustion of an alcohol
burns with a blue flame
37
describe what you would see during incomplete combustion of an alcohol
much smokier flame
