Alcohols
Hydroxyl Group
Same Homologous Series
Same functional group C-OH
Same general formula CnH2n+1 OH
NOT HYDROCARBONS (contain oxygen)
1 of 25
Uses of Alcohols
Antiseptics
Perfume
Fuel
Solvents
Alcohol
2 of 25
Methanol
CH3OH
3 of 25
Ethanol
CH3CH2OH
4 of 25
Propanol
CH3CH2CH2OH
5 of 25
Butanol
CH3CH2CH2CH2OH
6 of 25
Pentanol
CH3CH2CH2CH2CH2OH
7 of 25
Practical Considerations
Heat Energy lost ---> Use draft insulators
HeatingOX the glass not the water
Some water may evaporate
8 of 25
Oxidising Agent
Potassium Dichromate
9 of 25
O2 in the air
E.G Ethanol reacts with Oxygen forms Ethanoic Acid
Same with all other Alcohols
10 of 25
Fermentation
Yeast+Sugar--->Aqeous Ethanol+ CO2

37 degrees celcius
Slightly Acidic Solution
Absence of O2
11 of 25
Hydration of Ethene
Ethene+ Steam---> Ethanol
NEEDS ACID CATALYST (SULPHURIC OR PHOSPHORIC)
300 degrees celcius
60-70 atmos pressure
C2H4(g)+H2O(g)---> C2H5OH (g)
12 of 25
Advantages of Hydration of Ethene
Pure product
95% yield
Fast
Continuos Process
13 of 25
Disadvantages of Hydration of Ethene
Non-Renewable
Expensive (lots of energy usage)
14 of 25
Fermentation Adv
Sugars-Renewable Resource
Cheap Equipment
Carbon Neutral
15 of 25
Fermentation Disadv
Very Slow
Very Impure
High labour costs
16 of 25
