It will bleach damp litmus paper and turn it white
1 of 24
T31- what is the a test for oxygen?
it relights a glowing splint
2 of 24
T31- what is the test for carbon dioxide?
It turns limewater cloudy
3 of 24
T31- what is the test for hydrogen?
it makes a squeaky pop with a glowing splint

T31- what is the test for ammonia?
it will turn damp red litmus paper blue and has a strong smell
5 of 24
T31- what is the test for the presence of water?
add CuSO4 it will turn the anhydrous, white copper II sulfate crystals blue.

T31- How can you identify water as pure?
Pure water (one substance) will boil at 100 degrees Celsius, and will freeze at 0 degrees Celsius
7 of 24
T32- Define a HYDROCARBON
contains carbon and hydrogen atoms only
8 of 24
T32- Define the term 'saturated,' and explain how alkanes are saturated
when all the bonds are used, it can be described as saturated. In an alkane, all the four bonds available are bonded to a hydrogen, so it is saturated.

T32- what does the term HOMOLOGOUS series mean?
when the same general formula can be used to work out the molecular formula of any member of the series
10 of 24
T32- What's the general formula for alkenes?
Cn H2n+2
11 of 24
T32- Name the first five alkanes and state their molecular formula
Methane: CH4 Ethane: C2H6 Propane: C3H8 Butane: C4H10 Pentane: C5H12

T32- what is the way to remember this?
Mice Eat Peanut Butter Passionately
13 of 24
T32- What are the products of complete combustion of alkanes?
carbon dioxide,water and energy
14 of 24
T32- what are the products of incomplete combustion of alkanes?
carbon dioxide + water + carbon + carbon monoxide
15 of 24
T32- Explain the formation of haloalkanes
In the presence of UV light, a substitution reaction will take place where a bromine atom takes the place of one of the hydrogen atoms in the methane molecule. BROMOMETHANE
16 of 24
T33- What is different about alkenes?
they have a double covalent bond between two of the carbon atoms in the chain
17 of 24
T33- why are alkenes unsaturated?
because the double bond could open to make more bonds.
18 of 24
T33- what is the general formula for alkenes?
CnH2n
19 of 24
T33- what are the first three alkenes and what are their molecular formulae?
ethene: C2H4 (have to start with at least two carbon atoms as there is always a double bond) Propene: C3H6 Butene: C4H8
20 of 24
T33- what is an isomer?
It is when two molecules have the same molecular formula, but a different structure. (In butene, the double bond can be in a different place)
21 of 24
T33- Halogens + alkenes form?
HALOALKANES
22 of 24
T33- explain this process
Dibromoethane. the double bond of the carbon opens up to bond with the Br2 atoms. this can be described as an addition reaction.
23 of 24
T33- what can the addition of bromine to an alkenes test for?
a double carbon bond. as the bromine water added is orange, and dibromoethane is colourless. (shaken)
