Alkanes • Alkanes contain only single carbon to carbon
bonds they are described as saturated hydrocarbons.
• Alkanes are not very reactive (they do not react with acids, alkalis or bromine water).
• They do burn making them important fuels.

Take care, the same molecule can be represented in different ways by:
•Drawing the branch below instead of above the carbon chain.
•Drawing the branch at the other end of the chain.
•By drawing a bend in the longest chain.

Isomers: Boiling points
Use your understanding of structure and bonding to explain why the boiling point is increasing?
![Page 11: Systematic Carbon Chemistry](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012721/61b33e9b7ec97a2ef2686489/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Isomers: Boiling points
As the amount of branching increases, the tendency is for the boiling point to decrease.
The structure is more compact, smaller surface area, weaker London's dispersion forces.

• Usually have different physical properties.

Alkenes
Alkenes contain a carbon to carbon double bond they are described as unsaturated hydrocarbons.
![Page 28: Systematic Carbon Chemistry](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012721/61b33e9b7ec97a2ef2686489/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Structural Isomers Ethene has no isomers. Propene is isomeric with cyclopropene
Isomers of alkenes can arise for two reasons
• the position of the double bond in the chain can vary
• the chain can be straight or branched

CCl3F
CCl2F2
e.g. 1,1,1,2-tetrafluoroethane is used as a refrigerant.
Used as a blowing agent to make expanded foam
Recently hydrofluorocarbons have replaced some CFC’s.

Ozone destruction O3 CFC’s are very stable, lasting for 100 years in the atmosphere. So over time, CFC’s can reach the stratosphere. Here, UV radiation attacks the CFC’s forming free radicals ( ) .
Free radicals react with O3, the reaction is complex, but one Cl free radical can catalyse the break down 1 million O3 molecules. We will look at free radicals in more detail later in the unit!!!
ClO + O Cl + O2
CCl3F CCl2F + Cl U.V.light
Cl + O3 ClO + O2
When UV light breaks bonds, free radicals are formed. Free radicals have unpaired electrons and, as a result, are highly reactive.

Notes: The solubility, boiling point and volatility (ease of evaporation) of a compound can be predicted by considering: • the presence of O-H or N-H bonds, which implies
hydrogen bonding • the spatial arrangement of polar covalent bonds which
could result in a molecule possessing a permanent dipole
• molecular size which would affect London dispersion forces
• the polarities of solute and solvent. Polar or ionic compounds tend to be soluble in polar solvents, non-polar compounds tend to be soluble in non-polar solvents

Uses of Ethanol Solvents: In varnishes (as it evaporates easily), dyes, perfumes and drugs
Cleaning products: Meths is ethanol with added methanol.
Drinks: Ethanol is a natural product of fermentation. Ethanol cannot be more than 15% of the fermentation mixture, as ethanol is a poison and will kill the yeast. In the UK 8 g of ethanol is 1 UNIT.

Uses of ethanol Fuel: Increasingly seen as an important fuel.
• Ethanol can be used as a fuel in cars.
• Produced by fermentation
• e.g. sugar cane. It has an
• octane rating of 111. In Brazil about 20% of their ‘petrol’ is ethanol

Uses of methanol Methanol again burns to form carbon dioxide and water.
Methanol can be used as petrol additive or as a fuel in its own right. Octane rating of 114, also ‘clean’ burning. Toxic and corrosive

In alcohols the Carbon attached to the –OH can be attached to 0, 1, 2 or 3 other Carbon atoms
• 0 or 1 makes it primary as the OH is on the end carbon
• 2 is secondary (the OH is in the middle of a chain)
• 3 is tertiary (in the middle of a chain, opposite a branch)
R1, R2 and R3 can represent Hydrogens or any sized length of carbon chain, like a branch .They are referred to as alkyl groups

Learning Outcomes :
CARBOXYLIC ACIDS
• In this section you can learn about the characteristic
chemical properties of the family of carboxylic acids,
and find out how they are put to good use in everyday
consumer products.
![Page 70: Systematic Carbon Chemistry](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012721/61b33e9b7ec97a2ef2686489/html5/thumbnails/70.jpg)
Carboxylic Acids
• Vinegar’s chemical name is ethanoic acid, sometimes called acetic acid.
• It is a member of a group of compounds called carboxylic acids, which contain the carboxyl functional group (-COOH).
• If it is a straight chain hydrocarbon containing the carboxyl functional group it is known as an alkanoic or carboxylic acid.
![Page 71: Systematic Carbon Chemistry](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022012721/61b33e9b7ec97a2ef2686489/html5/thumbnails/71.jpg)
Carboxylic (Alkanoic) Acids •They contain the CARBOXYL functional group –COOH
•They have the general formula
CnH2n+1COOH
•Because of the ability of lower molecular sized carboxylic acids to form hydrogen bonds, they are soluble in water.
• They have high b.p.’s for the same reason.
•They also have a sharp smell. Human sweat contains a mixture of these compounds.

Testing Carboxylic Acids (2.2)
ACTIVITY: Testing carboxylic acids. Test a selection of carboxylic acids to for smell, pH and reactivity. NOTES • Show what functional group a carboxylic acid contains and what
the members of the alkanoic acid homologous series look like by drawing the full structural formulae and chemical formulae for the first four members of the alkanoic acid homologous series.
• After completing the experiments make a note of your observations. In particular you should record any trends in smell, pH and reactivity as the length of the carbon chain increases.

Reactions of Carboxylic Acids (2.3) • ACTIVITY: Neutralisation of carboxylic acids.
Neutralise ethanoic acid using sodium hydroxide, using pH paper to check it is no longer acidic. Evaporate off the water to leave the salt, sodium ethanoate.
• NOTES • Write a note on the formation of salts from
carboxylic acids. • Write a word equation and a chemical equation for
the formation of sodium ethanoate from the neutralisation of ethanoic acid and sodium hydroxide.

Notes: • Carboxylic acids can react with bases:
metal oxide + carboxylic acid → a salt + water
metal hydroxide + carboxylic acid →salt + water
metal carbonate + carboxylic acid → salt + water + carbon dioxide

Uses for Carboxylic acids
Carboxylic acids are used in:
• some food items. Vinegar is dilute ethanoic acid. This is used in preparations for pickles, salads, sauces, etc.
• the manufacture of soaps. Sodium salts of fatty acids are used in soap and detergent industries.
• medicines. Ethanoic acid is used in making aspirin.
• industrial solvents.
• preparing perfumes and artificial essences used in food manufacturing.
• are produced in your sweat glands. Dogs can track humans by detecting the characteristic blend of these acids in your sweat.

Food preservation Vinegar has been used for
millennia to preserve foods.
There are many other foods where a proportion of ethanoic acid is added not only to enhance flavour, but also to help prevent food spoilage.

Removing lime-scale • The ability of carboxylic acids to react with carbonates
to form salts is exploited in some lime-scale removers. • Lime-scale forms when hard water (water containing
soluble calcium and magnesium salts) is boiled or allowed to evaporate. Under these conditions the soluble salts are changed into insoluble ones. • For example, a water supply containing calcium
hydrogen carbonate will deposit calcium carbonate when boiled.
