Sulfur reacts with oxygen to form sulfur dioxide Less sulfur dioxide emitted Less acid rain Limestone reacts with acid rain
253
2 naturally occurring polymers produced from glucose
Starch and cellulose
254
Describe the shape and structure of dna
2 polymer chains Four nucleotides Double helix
255
Why is it more difficult to produce drinking water from waste water than water in lakes
Water needs more stages of treatment due to more microbes and organic matter
256
Compare the polymerisation reaction to produce polyethene with the polymerisation reaction used to produce a polyester
Polyethene is produced by addition whereas polyester by condensation Polyethene produced by Ethene whereas polyester from a carboxylic acid and alcohol Polyethene is only product Formed whereas polyester waste is also made
257
Explain how different dyes are separated by paper chromatography
Solvent moves through paper Different dyes have different solubilises in solvent Different attractions to paper So carried different distances
258
Explain in terms Dk particles how and why rate of reactions changing during faction of calcium carbonate with HcL
Acid particles used up Less conc of reactants Fewer frequency of successful collisions so rate if red films decreases
259
Compare Alkenes with alkanes due to their flames
Alkenes burn in a smokier flame
260
What was reacting an Alkene and hydrogen make?
Alkane
261
When you react and Alkenes with water what do we produce
Alcohol
262
What’s a condition for a hydration reaction
Water just be in the form of steam with high temp and pressure
263
Have can we increase yield of ethanol
Any I reacted Ethene and steam are passed back through catalyst
264
If we ready propene and chlorine, what do we make?
Dichloroproane
265
Formula for methanol
CH3OH
266
Formula for ethanol
C2H5OH
267
2 advantages of producing ethanol by fermentation
Low temp means doesn’t require lots of energy | Sugar comes from plants so is renewable
268
Disadvantage of producing ethanol by fermentation
Does require lots of energy as we jeee to purify aqueous ethabol
269
Alcohols are…
Soluble in water and form neutral solutions
270
As number of carbon signs in alcohol increases, what happens to solubility?
Decreases
271

What do we form when we react ethanol with an oxidising agent
Ethanoic acid and watsd
273
Structural formula for methanoic acid and ethanoic acid
HCOOH | CH3COOH
274
Why are csrboxykic acids weak
Only partially ionise in aqueous solutions
275
When we react ethanoic acid with sodium carbonate what do we produce
Sodium Ethanoic co2 | And water
276
When we react a carboxylic acid with an alcohol what do we make
An ester and water
277
What catalyst is used when we react ethanol with Ethanoic acid
Sulfuric acid
278
Do the polymer have single or double carbon bond
Single
279
In addition polymers what does the repeating unit have the same atoms as
The monomer(eg Ethene)
280
Where are addition polymers formed from
Alkenes
281
How can the problem of reproducibility be reduced
Use a colorimeter or same printer cross
282
Explain how w measure the volume of gas practical
Use a measuring cylinder to place know vol of HcL in flask Attach flask to bung and delivery tube Place delivery tube in container filled with water Place upturned measuring cylinder also filled with water over delivery tube Add strip of magnesium to HcL Measure vol of hydrogen gas in measuring cylinder every 10s Repeat using diff concs of HcL
