24
Q

Condensation reaction

A

Chemical reaction in which two molecules combine to form a larger molecule with loos of a smaller molecule e.g. Water

25
Q

Steam distillation

A

Separation process used to isolate compounds at temperature below their decomposition temp

26
Q

Principle of steam distillation

A

Mixture of two immiscible liquids boils at a temperature below that of the boiling points of l each of the liquids.

Hot mixture of water vapor and oil is passed through a condenser and the distillate that is collected contains a mixture of oil and water

27
Q

Emulsion

A

Dispersion of small droplets of one liquids in another liquids in which in not soluble

28
Q

Why use gloves when handling eugenol

A

Can burn skin

29
Q

What is used to separate an emulsion

A

Liquid liquid extraction (solvent extraction)

30
Q

What is liquid liquid extraction

A

Technique in which to immiscible liquids are separated using a solvent (cyclohexane) in which one of the components (oil)of the mixture has a higher solubility than the other(water)

E.g. Organic component is removed by dissolving it in an organic solvent

31
Q

Experiment is the separation of clove oil

A

Cyclohexane floats in the emulsion (it is non polar organic solvent)

Cyclohexan floats because it’s less dense than water

•Shake funnel
•Clap again
•pour organic in a conical
•pour aqueous in a beaker
•repeat at least 3 times
As each of washing is carried out the emulsion becomes milky 
•anhydrous magnesium sulfate is added (MgSO4)into the cyclohexane solution 
*MgSO4 is a drying agent*
  • pass organic layer into comical flask add mgso4 and pour down a filter paper into a conical flask
  • in the conical flask is cyclohexane containing clove oil (we used mgso4 to clump and collect water)
  • place in a water bath in a fume cupboard (to boil cyclohexane out of the solution wth has a boiling point of 81c
32
Q

Substitution reaction

A

Chemical reaction in which an atom or atoms in a molecule is replaced by another atom or atoms

33
Q

What is it called when a atom is replaced by an atom

A

Substitution reaction

34
Q

What is a mechanism

A

A detailed Step by step description oh how the overall reaction occurs

35
Q

Chain reaction

A

Reaction that continues on and on because a product from one step is a reactant for another reaction

36
Q

What is when a h from oh has been replaced by alkyne group and the reverse of it

A

Esterification

Hydrolysis

37
Q

Additional reaction

A

Two or more molecule react to make a single molecule

38
Q

Polymers

A

Long chain molecules made by joining together small molecules

39
Q

How to dehydrate alcohol to make an alkene

A

Add Al2O3

40
Q

Principal of gas chromotograony

A

Gaseous mobile phase is in contact with a stationary phase and separation of the mixture occurs as a result of selective assonance of the components of the mixture on the stationary phase

41
Q

What’s a triad

A

Group of three elements with Sicilian chemical properties in which the atomic weight of the middle Element is approximately equal to the average of the two

42
Q

Mass number

A

Sum of protons and neutrons

43
Q

What is an isotope

A

Atoms of same element which have different mass number due to neutrons in the nucleus

44
Q

Sigma vs pi

A

Sigma-head on overlap of orbitals

Pi-sideways overlap of orbitals

45
Q

Seconds ionization energy

A

Energy required to remove an electron from a position ion in a gaseous state

46
Q

Processes in mass spectrometry

A

Vincent Is a Sad Dog

Vaporization: Turning liquids into gas

Ionization: Electron gun fires high energy electrons at the atoms or molecules of the sample gas. Electrons are knocked off these particles and positive ions are produced.

Accelerate: passed between negative plates . These attract positive ions and accelerate these ions to high speeds

Separation: curved magnetic field in which lighter particles are easy to detect and heavy are more difficult to detect therefore it’s split into a number of beams based to their masses

Detection: positive ion fall in a very sensitive detector that responds to the number of ions hitting it. It sends a series of leaks called mass spectrum
