What is an alkane? |
Single bond, saturated |
|
What is an Alkene? |
Double bond, unsaturated |
|
What is an alkyne? |
A triple bond, unsaturated |
|
Properties of alkanes, alkenes, alkynes |
1) Are non-polar and therefore insoluble in water 2) Are less-dense than water so float 3) Can dissolve non-polar substances 4) Do not conduct heat or electricity because of lack of free-moving ions or electrons 5) As the number of carbon chain increases, the BP increases 6) Low mP and bP because of weak inter-molecular forces |
|
What is an isomer? |
Same molecular formula, different arrangement of atoms |
|
What is a geometric isomer |
Can form when there is a double bond (to prevent free rotation) and there are different atoms joined to the carbon atoms |
|
What is a structural isomer |
Different ways of drawing the same formula |
|
What is cis |
Top left and top right or bottom left bottom right |
|
What is trans |
Top left, bottom right or opposite |
|
What are all the types of reactions that alkenes can undergo? |
Combustion Substitution |
|
How do you make a haloalkane? |
A substitution reaction between an alkane and a halogen is called a haloalkane |
|
Prefix for halogen bromine |
Bromo |
|
What is needed for substitution reactions to continue? |
Additional UV light and sufficient reactants, substitution reactions can continue. |
|
What is a substitution reaction? |
When something is added and is substituted or switched with one of the H's on the main molecule. For example - cl-cl is added, and switches with an h to become HCL ect |
|
What is the prefix for chlorine |
Chloro |
|
What is the prefix for fluorine |
Fluoro |
|
What is the prefix for iodine |
Iodo |
|
What is the prefix for chlorine |
Chloro |
|
In haloalkanes what is primary |
If there is one c bonded to the group |
|
In haloalkanes what is secondary |
2 carbons bonded to the group |
|
In haloalkanes, what is tertiary? |
3 carbons bonded to the group |
|
What reactions can alkenes go under |
Addition |
|
What is an addition reaction |
When the double bond of an Alkene is broken and 2 new atoms are added |
|
What are the 3 types of addition reactions for alkenes |
Hydrogenation Halogenation Hydration |
|
What is hydrogenation |
Hydrogen gas is added to an Alkene to form an alkane |
|
What is halogenation |
A halogen is added to an Alkene to form a haloalkane (can also occur with a hydrogen halide (hcl hbr)) |
|
What is hydration? |
Water vapour is added to an Alkene to form an alcohol (high pressure/ high temps is needed) |
|
What is markounikov's rule? |
During an addition reaction, the hydrogen atom preferentially bonds to the carbon atom bonded to the highest number of existing hydrocarbons |
|
What is a haloalkane? |
An alkane bonded to one or more halogens |
|
What are the reactions that haloalkanes can undergo? |
Substitution with hydroxide ions. Substitution with conc ammonia nh3. Elimination |
|
What is the substitution of a haloalkane to make an alcohol? |
Haloalkane reacts with hydroxide ions (from aqueous NaOH or KOH) and the halogen is substituted with OH- to form an alcohol |
|
What are the reactions that haloalkanes can undergo? |
Substitution with hydroxide ions. Substitution with conc ammonia nh3. Elimination |
|
What is the substitution reaction of a haloalkane to form an amine? |
Haloalkanes react with concentrated ammonia (NH3). The halogen is substituted with NH2 to form an anime. |
|
What is the substitution of a haloalkane to make an alcohol? |
Haloalkane reacts with hydroxide ions (from aqueous NaOH or KOH) and the halogen is substituted with OH- to form an alcohol |
|
What is the elimination reaction of haloalkane? |
Haloalkanes lose a halogen atom and hydrogen atom from neighbouring carbons to form an Alkene. |
|
Front (Term) What is saytzeff's rule? |
When more than one elimination product is possible, the hydrogen is preferentially lost from the carbon with the least number of hydrogens are already bonded wha |
|
What is a polymer? |
Large molecules made up of many small repeating units called monomers |
|
What is a polymer? |
Large molecules made up of many small repeating units called monomers |
|
What is polymerisation |
The process by which monomers bond covalently to one another to form polymers |
