Q

How to determine salt prep method

A

Soluble? No: precipitation
Both og mats sol in water? No: excess Yes: titration

84
Q

Salts: Precipitation steps 4

A
  1. Add excess sol with anion to sol with cation (metal nitrate)
  2. Filter to obtain ppt (insol salt)
  3. Wash with distilled water to remove contaminants
  4. Leave ppt in cool dry place to dry
85
Q

Salts: titration steps 8

A

A
1. Fill burearte with dilute acid. Note initial reading (V1)
2. Pipe the 25.0cm3 of alkali into con. flask
3. Add 1-2 drops of indicator eg methyl orange, sol turns yellow
4. Slowly add dilute acid until one drop causes the solution to change colour (end pt)
5. Stop adding hcl, record final reading (V2)
B
1. Pipette 25.0cm3 of alkali into con. flask
2. Add vol of acid req (V2-V1)
3. Allow salt sol to cool and crystallise
(NaCl: heat to dryness)

86
Q

Salts: Reacting dilute acid w excess steps 7

A
  1. React excess metal with dilute acid. Stir until no more dissolved, effervescence stops
  2. Filter to remove excess unreacted metal. Filtrate is salt solution
  3. Heat salt solution to half vol to obtain sat. solution (glass rod test)
  4. Allow sat. solution to cool and crystallise
  5. Filter to obtain crystals
  6. Wash with distilled water (remove contaminants)
  7. Pat dry with filter paper
87
Q

Why use excess reactant when adding in excess salt prep

A

Ensures all acid is used up, leaves no acid to contaminate salt solution

88
Q

Why must the reactant be insoluble in water when adding in excess salt prep

A

Allows the excess reactant to be filtered from salt solution

89
Q

purple solution to colourless as the purple MnO4 - ions are reduced into colourless Mn 2+ ions.

acidified potassium dichromate(VI)

K2Cr2O7 (aq) turns the orange solution to green as the orange Cr2O7 2- ions are reduced to green Cr 3+ ions.

130
Q

Disproportionation reaction

A

one reactant undergoes reduction and oxidation simultaneously. (redox is one ox one red)

131
Q

Reaction of carboxylic acids with metals/carbonates/bases

A

cation should always be written behind the anion,
for example ethanoic acid reacts with magnesium; 2CH3COOH (aq)+ Mg(s) → (CH3COO)2Mg (aq) + H2 (g), forms magnesium ethanoate + H2

132
Q

general formula of carboxylic acids

A

general formula = CnH2n+1COOH

133
Q

Isomerism in alcohol (naming)

A

propan-1-ol= functional group attached to the 1st C atom ( can be 1st C atom from right to left, or left to right.)

134
Q

Combustion of alcohol

A

CO2 + water vapour, flame is clean with no soot

135
Q

fermentation of alcohols

A

microorganisms like yeast act on carbohydrates (glucose) to produce ethanol and CO2, conditions = anaerobic environment + presence of yeast + 37 degrees

Alcohol obtained is dilute, as yeast denatures when concentration of ethanol is too high
Oxygen shouldn’t be present, or it will oxidise into ethanoic acid (sour taste)

136
Q

uses of ethanol

A

alcoholic drinks, solvent, paints, perfumes, fuels, vinegar

137
Q

alkenes formula

A

C=C bond, unsaturated hydrocarbons with formula CnH2n

138
Q

alkanes or alkenes more reactive why

A

Alkenes are more reactive than alkanes due to double bond, through addition unsaturated (alkene) becomes saturated (alkane)

139
Q

Bromination

A

used to test for presence of alkenes, reddish brown aqueous bromine decolourises instantly into a colourless solution in presence of alkenes (C=C)

140
Q

alkanes general formula

A

Cn H2n+2, with no functional groups, saturated

141
Q

change in physical properties down the alkane series

A

↑mp + bp, : molecular size↑ = ↑ strong intermolecular forces of attraction, due to increase in relative atomic mass (Mr)

↑density,

↑r by 14 due to gain of CH2,

↑viscosity, : ↑stronger intermolecular forces of attraction = ↑difficulty in flowing

↓flammability : increase in Mr results in percentage of carbon present to increase = more O2 for combustion, so it produces smoky flames due to incomplete combustion (soot)

142
Q

Isomerism

A

compounds with same molecular formula but different structural formula

143
Q

substitution in alkanes

A

alkanes react with chlorine/ bromine

UNDER UV LIGHT

1 hydrogen gets replaced by chlorine/ bromine

144
Q

hydrocarbon naming prefix

A

meth- 1
eth- 2
prop- 3
but- 4
pent- 5
hex- 6
hept- 7

Q

petroleum tower

A

Good (petroleum Gas)
Parents (Petroleum)
No (Naptha)
Kids (Kerosene)
Do (Diesel)
Love (Lubricating oil)
Babies (Bitumen)

146
Q

sources of fuel: storage and pollution (3)

A

Natural gas : Methane CH4
Stored in big spaces in gas but can be liquefied easily, can flow through pipes easily
Almost no pollutants as no soot or SO2 produced

Petroleum : Hydrocarbons (alkanes)
Stored and transported easily by tankers, flow easily
Some soot and SO2 produced = moderate

Coal: carbon C
Not easily stored or transported but takes up less space when stored
Extremely = large amounts of soot and SO2 produced

147
Q

Source of crude oil/ petroleum

A
  • dead creatures in the sea fall to the sea bed, decomposed, eventually producing petroleum and natural gas was found on top of petroleum
  • Biogas is produced when organic matter is allowed to decay in the absence of air ( 50% CH4)
148
Q

Fractional distillation of petroleum (mixture of hydrocarbons) procedure

A

petroleum is first vapourised, rises in the tall fractionating column, where the top of the column is cooler than the bottom, and thus condenses.

Fractions with lower bp condense near the top of the column , higher bp condense near bottom of the column ( ↑size of molecule MR = ↑intermolecular force)

Petroleum contains more heavier and less useful hydrocarbons, and thus these can be broken down via catalytic cracking.

149
Q

fd of petroleum products uses

A

Fuels = petroleum gas, petrol, gasoline, kerosene, paraffin, diesel oil
Feedstock for petrochemical industry = naphtha
Lubricating machines/ wax/ polishing = lubricating oil
Paving road surfaces = bitumen/ asphalt

150
Q

issues related to petroleum

A

Burning of fuel = pollution + global warming
Non renewable, need to be conserved
Reduce consumption by using public transport/ using differing sources such as solar/ nuclear energy ( plutonium/ uranium but risk = harmful leaking radiation)

151
Q

manufacture of sulfuric acid

A

manufacture of sulfuric acid by burning it in oxygen to form sulfur dioxide then sulfur trioxide and is then dissolved in sulfuric acid to form oleum (H2S2O7), then water is added to form sulfuric acid

152
Q

Uses of sulfuric acid

A

manufacturing of fertilisers such as ammonium sulfate and dilute sulfuric acid is used in car batteries to release energy.

153
Q

pH readings explain

A

pH = The concentration of H+ ions increases as the pH meter decreases while the concentration of OH- ions increases as the pH meter increases (7 = neutral)

Formula = -log( concentration of H+ ions)

154
Q

alloys stronger why

A

Alloys are stronger and harder than pure metals as the atoms of different metals have different sizes, resulting in the disruption of the orderly rigid layers of atoms in the pure metal, making it more difficult for the layers to slide over one another.

155
Q

metals with water and steam (more reactive than H)

A

Metals + water = hydroxides + H2
magnesium reacts very slowly w cold water and other metals below magnesium dont react with cold water at all

Metals + steam = oxides + H2
metals below iron like lead, copper and silver do not react steam at all

156
Q

alloys reasons 4

A
  • harder and stronger
  • improve appearnace
  • more resistant to corrosion (layer of oxide)
  • lowers MP
