Q

Respiration equation

A

27
Q

How respiration and photosynthesis maintain carbon cycle

A

Amt of C by both is same

28
Q

Process used to manufacture alkenes

A

Catalytic cracking

29
Q

Why are alkane fractions cracked further

A

Less useful longer chain alkanes eg diesel and LO -> shorter chain alkanes eg petrol w higher demand

30
Q

Bromination

A

AQUEOUS bromine used

31
Q

Vegetable oil -> margarine how

A

Add H2 gas to VO, temp of 200C and nickel catalyst (hydrogenation)

32
Q

Calcium added to salt solutions, fizzing

A

V reactive, forms calcium hydroxide + H2 gas

33
Q

More soluble chromatography

A

Higher up
More soluble = Rf closer to 1

34
Q

Mole calc dm3 triangle

A

Dm3
Mol | 24

35
Q

Rate of decomp of metal carbonates

A

More reactive = carbonate more stable = need higher temp to decomp

36
Q

Blast furnace

A
37
Q

When asked about Mr of gases and diffusion

A

HIGHER mr = LOWER ro.d = water level higher/lower

38
Q

Which is giant molecular

A

MOLECULAR not ionic

If it looks like smt u don’t see in covalent DONT pick it

39
Q

Insoluble salt prep

A

You’ll probably need to acidify it first

Just remember: IT DOESNT NEED TO BE CRYSTALLISED

40
Q

You’re gonna need quantitative analysis

A

roger roger

41
Q

In redo eqns assign each reactant to its product carefully to see if it’s reduced or not

A

Eg

~ + H2O2 + H+ —> O2 + H2O

H2O2 is OXIDISED to O2 not reduced to H2O
H2O2 is the only source of O, H+ can gain O

42
Q

Get your highlighter out girl your eyes are not to be trusted

A

Noted 👍

43
Q

In the alkene reaction with the UV light

A

Only ONE H atom is replaced by a C or F at one time

What’s it called btw

44
Q

When something (eg a hydrocarbon) is hydrolysed,

A

it adds WATER to it. H2O. NOT THE CATALYST???

45
Q

Why is there ammonia in QA result?

A

There’s gotta be nitrate somewhere
👈😎👈 NH3/4 y’all

46
Q

Ammonium salt + ____ -> ammonia gas

A

Alkali !!! Like limewater

47
Q

Why are additional things added in some processes

A

Impurity reduces melting point -> less energy required

48
Q

Why is silicon dioxide solid while sulfur dioxide gas

A

SiO2 = covalent bonds

Stronger than

SO2 = intermolecular forces of attraction

49
Q

Flue gas desulfurisation first main product

A

Calcium sulFITE

+ oxygen -> calcium sulfate

50
Q

Molecules present in mixture after bromination of methane

A
  • hydrogen bromide
  • dibromomethane

NO HYDROGEN

51
Q

What excess reactant can be used to make potassium lactate from lactic acid

A
  • potassium hydroxide / carbonate

Remember it’s an ACID. Standard reactions apply

52
Q

When metal occurs naturally as an element

A

Not very reactive (cannot be extracted by electrolysis)

53
Q

Redox reactions: is it redox? 🤨🤷‍♂️

A

If it’s only one reactant it probably isn’t. It might be a disproportioantion reaction!

54
Q

Which statements about cracking of hydrocarbons is correct?
1. Involves breaking down hydrocarbon molecules
2. One of the products is always unsaturated
3. Cracking is essential cause of demand for smaller fractions

A

ALL OF THE ABOVE

55
Q

Given % by mass of each element in X, what other info is needed to determine molecular formula?

A

Mr of the elements and Mr of X

56
Q

Cropper oxide reduced to copper via heating, dry hydrogen gas pumped into the tube until tube is cold. Why?

A

Prevents copper from reacting with oxygen in air

57
Q

What can be used with sublimation

A

Ammonium chloride
Dry ice
Iodine

58
Q

Impurities will

A

Raise bp
Lower mp

59
Q

Diff gases, same moles, volume?

A

Same (abocardos law, 6 x 10^23)

60
Q

Change in mass of cathode and anode when reactive electrode

A

Anode mass decr
Cathode mass incr

No net gain or loss of ions in the solution, no colour change

61
Q

Electroplating

A

Object to be plated is the cathode

Plating metal is the anode

62
Q

Simple cell

A

More reactive metal oxidation (neg electrode)

Less reactive reduced (pos electrode)

Higher diff in reactivity = higher voltage

(If electrolyte is dilute sulfuric acid, H+ ions to H2 gas at lower reactivity)

63
