fractions from the refining of petroleum Catalytic cracking is the process whereby high molecular weight fractions are broken down to low molecular weight ones. This process is used in petroleum refineries where crude oil is broken down to smaller alkenes and alkanes‚ until ethene‚ propene‚ (or both) are formed. Catalytic Cracking allows greater output of high-demand products. Identify that ethylene‚ because of the high reactivity of its double bond‚ is readily transformed into many useful products Ethylene

Ethers have much lower boiling points compared to alcohols of comparable MWs. BPs of ethers increases with increasing MW. BPs of isomeric ethers increase with increasing alkyl chain length. BPs of ethers are about the same as those of alkanes of comparable MWs. Solubility of ethers in water is comparable to that of alcohols. As chain length of ethers increases‚ solubility in water decreases. Branching of the alkyl chain results in greater solubility since London forces are weaker

permanganate was added. Permanganate’s color changed from purple to brown‚ and bromium’s color changed brown to colorless‚ it became color solution which was light yellow. INTRODUCTION One of the most useful and general methods of preparing alkenes or olefins is based on the dehydration of alcohols with acids. Strong acids such as sulphuric and phosphoric acids are required to form the oxonium ion from which the hydronium ion is eliminated. “This cyclohexene from cyclohexanol reaction belongs

Principles Alcohol is widely used in organic chemistry‚ not only as solute but also as intermediate to synthesize halide‚ alkene‚ ether‚ aldehyde and ketone etc. In laboratory‚ an important method of synthesizing alcohol is though the addition reaction of Gridnard reagent and carbonyl compound‚ whereas aldehyde is the most reactive and then to ketone or ester.

dispersion forces). The magnitude pof Van der Waals force depends on the relative molecular mass‚ high mass produces a larger force. Boiling points of the alkanes data and alkenes data These very clearly illustrate the effect of increasing Van der Waals attractions as the relative molecular mass increases. The influence of branching in the alkanes can also illustrate the effect of different surface areas on the Van der Waala forces (the more branching the lower the b.p) Dipole-dipole forces --

1. A student neglected to add sodium carbonate when extracting the tea leaves with hot water. Yet a very high yield of caffeine was obtained. The crystals melted at 202-214°C. Explain. • The sodium carbonate is supposed to be added when extracting the tea leaves with hot water in order to help purify the caffeine. So since the student neglected to add sodium carbonate the caffeine won’t be pure but the student would still be able to recover a large amount of caffeine. The literature melting point
