Fuel Cells

  • H+ Electrons lost to anode 2H2---> 4H + 4e-
  • H+ electrons Oxygen atoms combine O2 + 4H+ +4e- ---> 2H20
  • H+ ions can pass across membranes in electrolysis- protone exchange membrane.

Alcohols and Fermentation

  • Makes ethanol and Carbon Dioxide.
  • C6H12O6 ----> 2C2H5OH + CO2
  • Anaerobic respiration (no oxygen) otherwise it makes vinegar (ethanoic acid.)
  • Water and yeast needed.
  • 37c- optimum for zymase enzymes.
  • Used as: drink, solvents and fuels.

Hydration and Dehydration of Ethene

Salts and Ethanol's

  • Hydration catalyst= Hot Phosphoric acid.
  • Dehydration catalyst= Hot Aluminium oxide.
  • Hydration= C2H4 + H2O ---> C2H5OH
  • Dehydration= C2H5OH ---> C2H4 + H2O
  • Alcohol Fermentation Pro's:- Carbon neutral, renewable, house hold waste used.
  • Hydration of Ethene Pro's:- Cheaper, not enough land in UK so it's more economical not to grow crops.
  • Alcohol Fermentation Con's:- Growing crops means large areas are deforested, not efficient with transport, difficult to make high concentrations of alcohol.
  • Hydration of Ethene Con's:- Non-renewable we need to find an alternative fuel!

Redox Reactions

  • Oxidation
  • Is
  • Loss (of electrons)
  • Reduction
  • Is
  • Gain (of electrons

Sacrificial protection:- Bolt block of a more reactive metals onto the hull of a ship e.g. Zinc and that displaces and stops the ship from rusting.

Ozone

Ozone is destroyed by CFC's, Ozone is O3:-

  • 1. Initiation.     Cl2 ---> Cl. + Cl.                         (Radicals on right)
  • 2.Propagation. Cl. + O3 ---> OCl. + O2 then...    (Radicals on both sides)
  •                     OCl. + O3 ---> Cl 2O2     overall...
  •                       O3 + O2 ---> O2 + 2O2 + 2O3
  • 3. Termination. Cl. + Cl. ---> Cl2.                        (Radicals on left)

CFC's are:- Non toxic, non-flammable, odourless, tasteless and chemically stable.

Fats and Emulsions

  • Fat= Solid.
  • Oil = Liquid.
  • Saturated Hydrocarbons= Single Bonds.
  • Unsaturated Hydrocarbons= Double Bonds.
  • Testing for unsaturated fats= Bromine water test.
  • Soaps= Saponification (Making soaps).
  • Fat + alkali= soap + glycerol.
  • H4C2+ Br2  (orange) ---> H4C2Br (colourless).

Saponification

Hard Water

  • Hard water reacts with soap but not detergent to make a scum instead of bubbles. It's 'hard' to make bubbles.
  • Temporary Hardness= H2CO3 + CaCO3 ---> Ca(HCO3)2, When boiled it can be made soft.
  • Permanent Hardness= H2SO4 + CaCO3 ---> CaSO4 +H2O +CO2, Boiling doesn't remove Ca2+ ions, when heating CaSO4, no reaction is used. Sodium Carbonate is used.
  • Ca2+ (aq) + CO3^2- (aq) ---> CaCO3 (s) used in washing powders e.g. Calgon.
  • Weak acids remove limestone.
  • Ion exchange resins include:- Calcium and Magnesium.

Medicines

Asprin = C9H8O4            RFM= 180

Paracetamol = C8H9O2N RFM=151

Ibuprofen= C13H1802      RFM= 206

Costs Involved in Making Medicines

  • Manufacturing.
  • Paying employees.
  • Research and development.
  • Drug testing and trials.
  • Energy.
  • Packaging.
  • Machinery.
  • Computer and hardware.
  • Transporting drugs.
  • Administration.
  • Raw materials can be expensive.

Aspirin

  • Covalent compounds= Not soluble in water.
  • Ionic compounds= Soluble in Water
  • Salicylic acid+ acetic anhydride ---> acetylsalicylate + acetic acid.
  • Made in lab but can be found in the bark of willow trees.
  • Numbs pain, anticoagulant, pain-killer and anti-inflammatory.
  • Has large risks, but you generally throw up after overdose unlike paracetamol which kills.
  • React acid with Na+ to make Aspirin soluble.
  •
