Reagents
Substances or compounds added to system to cause or test for a reaction
Catalysts
Substances that speed up a chemical reaction but are not used up
Symmetrical Addition
Adding the same atom to each C of the double bond
Asymmetrical Addition
Adding different atoms or group of atoms to the end of each C of the double bond
Types of Addition Reactions
- Hydrogenation
- Hydration
- Halogenation
Hydrogenation
Addition of hydrogen gas (H2) with the presence of Pt or Ni catalysts under high temperature and pressure
Hydration
Addition of H2O water
Halogenation
Addition of halogens (Group 17 elements)
Addition reaction
Double bond is broken which opens 2 new bonding spaces for two atoms / group of atoms to bond to each C of the double bond.
Prefix for the amount of a molecule
di, tri, tetra, penta, hexa, hepta, octa

Moles
6.02x10^23
Equation for moles
n = m/M
Equation for concentration
c = n/V
molL-1 -> gL-1
x Molar Mass
Complete Combustion reactions produce
H2O + CO2
gL-1 -> molL-1
/ Molar Mass
Incomplete Combustion reactions produce
H2O + CO2 + CO + C
Equation for titre
expected titre = (xml * aliquot)/df
equation for dilution factor
volumetric flask/pipette
Greenhouse gas
Atmospheric gases that intercept long-wave radiation emitted from the Earth’s surface. They contribute to global warming
Short term implications of using greenhouse gases
Rain pattern change
Evaporation increase
Glaciers melt
Sea level rises
Long term implications of using greenhouse gases
Warmer atmosphere
Warmer and more acidic oceans
Higher sea levels
More intense heat waves
Implications of using greenhouse gases on living organisms
Habitat fragmentation
Loss/Reduce availability of food, clean air and water
Changes of the desired climate
Increase of ocean acidification affects marine wildlife which some organisms cannot survive in.
Air Pollution
The contamination of the indoor or outdoor environment by chemical, biological or physical agents and changes the natural environment or atmosphere
How does carbon affect the environment
Coats the leaves of plants and reduces the rate or photosynthesis which kills them and reduces production of O2 in the world
Controlled Variable in titration
Concentration - Dilution, Degradation
Amount of indicator added
Type of acid/base
Parallax error
Combustion cleanliness
Short chains burn clean
5+ burn dirty
How does carbon monoxide affect living organisms
Carbon Monoxide is a poisonous gas for living things as it reduces the oxygen carrying capacity of blood
