Answer 9

Must be separated into fractions before they can be used

Question 10

Longer alkanes have…

Answer 10

Higher boiling points due to more heat needed to overcome intermolecular forces

Solvents,lubricants,detergents and polymers

Question 16

What are polymers more commonly used from

Answer 16

Made from Alkenes

(Used to make plastic)

Question 17

What is an Alkene

Answer 17

A hydrocarbon with Atleast one DOUBLE COVALENT BOND

Unsaturated

Question 19

What’s the general formula for alkenes?

Answer 19

C^n H^2n

Question 20

How can you test for Alkenes

Answer 20

Will turn Bromine Water from ORANGE to COLOURLESS if in solution

Question 21

Why does Bromine water change colour (practical)

Answer 21

Due to the bromine atoms bonding to the alkene

by breaking the double bond

This molecule has been saturated
