Q

What is the test for ammonia

A

Add sodium hydroxide to it and heat it and should give off ammonia gas which can be detected by holding damp red litmus palate over it and will turn blue
Also has distinctive smell

19
Q

How many carbon and hydrogen atoms would Ethene have

A

C 2
H 4

20
Q

What is the functional group of an alkene

A

C=C

21
Q

How are alkenes unsaturated

A

They have bonds double which can open up allowing 2 carbon atoms to bond with other atoms

22
Q

What does but-2-ene show about the double bond

A

Shows that the double bond is located in the second carbon bond

23
Q

When you add an alkene to bromine water what happens to the colour and structure

A

When mixed the alkene will decolourise bromine water from orange to colourless
Bromine is added across the alkene double bond

24
Q

How is bromine water used to distinguish between an alkene and an alkane

A

Alkane are saturated with no double bonds and won’t react with bromine water and stay orange and alkene will react and change its colour

25
Q

What happens during complete combustion of alkanes and alkenes

A

They burn in oxygen to form carbon dioxide and water
Ethane + Oxygen —> carbon dioxide + water

26
Q

What is a polymer

A

Substances of high average relative molecular mass made of small repeating units

27
Q

How can ethene molecules combine in addition polymerisation

A

Open up their double bonds to form polymer chains

28
Q

What is the polymer of ethene called
C 2 H 4

A

Poly(ethene)
(C 2 H 4)n

29
Q

What does PVC stand for

A

Poly(chloroethene)
