Paper 2-SC22,23,24 Flashcards
What are the first 4 prefixes?
Meth,eth,prop,but
What is the general formula for alkenes?
CnH2n
What is the carbon carbon double bond known as?
A functional group.
Explain isomers?
What is a structural isomer?
Compounds with the same molecular formulae but different structural formulae.
Do some more research on isomers.
Okay.
What happens during combustion?
Oxidation.
What happens if all the atoms from the hydrocarbon are fully oxidised?
The products are only water and carbon dioxide and it is complete combustion.
What colour is dilute bromine water?
Orange-brown.
What happens when bromine water reacts with alkenes?
It becomes colourless but alkanes do not cause this so this is how you can tell difference.
Why does the bromine water test work?
Because the CC double bond reacts with the bromine to form colourless product so the bromine is removed from solution so it loses colour.
What is an addition reaction?
A reaction in which the reactants combine to form one larger product molecule and no other products.
What is an addition reaction with bromine test thing idk research?
What do alcoholic drinks contain?
Ethanol.
What is the formula for ethanol?
C2H5OH
What is ethanol in drinks made from?
Sugars.
What are sugars?
Small, soluble substances that belong to a group called carbohydrates.
What do seeds contain?
A carbohydrate called starch. Starch is a long polyme.
What must happen to starch to make alcohol?
It must be broken dopwn into sugars.
hat happens to seeds before they are used?
They are germinated so the enzymes naturally turn the starch into sugars.
What is used for beer?
Barley seeds.
What is used for wine?
Grapes.
What is used for whiskey?
Barley seeds.
What is used for vodka?
Wheat seeds.
What is fermentation?
Plant material containing sugars is mixed with water and yeast, enzymes in the yeast turn the sugars into ethanol and carbon dioxide.
Why must the pH and temp be carefully controlled during fermentation?
So the enzymes can work at their best.
What is yeast fermentation a type of?
Anaerobic respiration.
