Effect of adding a little tetraethyllead to an equimolar mixture of methane and chlorine
Reaction rate increases / tetraethyllead acts as a catalyst
Primary alcohol
One carbon attached to hyroxyl carbon
Why is boiling point of propanol higher than that of butane?
Propanol is polar/ butane is non-polar /has weaker intermolecular forces
Why is the boiling point of ethanoic acid higher than that of prop-1-ol?
Ethanoic acid has more hydrogen bonding / 2 polar groups
Organic product of reaction of propanol with acidified dilute KMnO4
Propanoic acid
How to demonstrate that ethene readily undergoes an addition reaction with bromine water
Bubble combine ethene with bromine water / red /de colorised
Delocalised
Shared between more than two atoms
How many electrons in benzene molecule are delocalised
6
How many electrons in benzene molecule are involved in sigma bonds
12
Molecular formula of eugonol
C10H12O2
Name a spectroscopic technique that could help confirm identity of a sample of eugonol
Mass spectrometry/ IR
Infrared spectrometry
Molecules absorb of different frequencies
a use that propanoic acid, benzoic acid and the salts of these acids have in common
Suits pharmaceutical industry / labour costs high
What was observed in flaks as water was dropped onto CAC2 (prepare ethyne)
Reaction turns milky/ bubbling
