Chapter 10 Flashcards
combustion of butene
butene + oxygen —–> carbon dioxide + water
propene + hydrogen —->
propane
butene + steam —->
butanol
ethene + chlorine (halogen) —->
dichloroethane (dihaloalkane)
draw propanol
general formala of alcohols
CnH2n+1OH
what is alcohols used for
in perfumes, mouthwashes and cosmetics
combustion of propanol
propanol + oxygen —-> carbon dioxide + water
ethanol + sodium —–>
sodium ethoxide (alkoxide) + hydrogen
ethanol + oxidising agent —–>
ethanoic acid (carboxylic acid) + water
what are 2 ways to produce ethanol
sugar
ethene
how does sugar produce ethanol
when sugar solutions are fermented using yeast in the absence of oxygen at temperature of up to 40°C (yeast is killed), ethanol is produced
how does ethene produce ethanol
when ethene reacts with steam, ethanol is produced
draw ethanoic acid
general formula of carboxylic acids
CnH2nCOOH
properties of carboxylic acids
they are weak acids
propanoic acid + sodium carbonate —>
sodium propanoate + water + carbon dioxide
methanoic acid + sodium hydroxide (alkali) —->
sodium methanoate + water
ethanol (alcohol) + ethanoic acid (carboxylic acid) + presence of an acid catalyst
ethyl ethanoate
draw ethyl ethanoate
properties of ester
sweet smelling compounds
used in perfume + flavouring
formula of methanoic acid
HCOOH
formula of ethanoic acid
CH3COOH
