Organic Reactions

Question 0

Cracking

Answer 0

Larger molecule -> smaller molecules

Question 1

Addition polymerization

Answer 1

Unsaturated monomer, break bonds, = saturated polymer

Question 2

Ethane Cracking

Answer 2

Ethane –> ethene + H2

Question 3

Addition

Answer 3

Unsaturated + hydrogens –> saturated

or halogens

Question 4

Condensation

Answer 4

Combining functional groups to produce H2O & polymer

Question 5

Alkylation

Answer 5

Straight chained –> branched H/C

Question 6

Catalytic Reforming

Answer 6

Aliphatic –> aromatic (benzene)

Question 7

Substitution

Answer 7

Adding halogens to saturated H/C

One at a time

Question 8

Elimination

Answer 8

Alcohol –> alkene (OH combines with H to produce H2O)

Question 9

Esterification

Answer 9

Carboxylic acid + alcohol = ester + H2O

Question 10

Complete combustion

Answer 10

H/C + O2 —> CO2 + H2O

White/blue flame

Question 11

Incomplete combustion

Answer 11

H/C + O2 —> CO2 or CO or C + H2O

Question 12

Dehydrohalogenation

Answer 12

Organic halide & alkane +OH -> alkene +halide ion + H2O
