organic chemistry including alcohols Flashcards
general formula
algebraic formula which can describe any member of a family of compounds
empirical formula
simplest whole number ratio of atoms of each elements in a compound
molecular formula
actual numer of atoms of each element in a molecule
displayed
shows how they are arranged.
structural formula
arrangement of atom carbon by carbon
carbon name 1-6 carbons
meth eth prop but pent hex
fractions in a fractionating tower
refinery gases: used in heating
gasoline: used as a fuel in cars
kerosene: used as a fuel in aircraft.
diesel: used as fuel in some cars
fuel oil: used as a fuel for large ship and also in some power stations
bitumen: used to surface roads and roofs.
crude oil separated into fractions key answer
oil is heated until most turns into gas.
in the column there is a temperature gradient. Hottest at the bottom and gets cooler as you go up.
long chain hydrocarbon condense at the bottom
short chain hydrocarbon condense at the top

halogens react with alkanes to create haloalkanes.
haloalkanes.
what do you need for addition reactions
UV light
bromine water + an alkene
goes colourless.
what makes an alcohol an alcohol
OH on the end of it
ways to make alcohol hydration
C2H4 + H20
catalyst is phosphoric acid
300 degrees celcius
60-70 atm of pressure
ways to make alcohol fermentation
glucose –> ethanol + CO2
glucose from yeast
yeast provides enzyme zymase
