7 Industrial Synthesis of Ethene Industrially, ethene (and other alkenes) produced from fractions obtained by the distillation of crude oil/petroleum The various fractions contain long-chained alkanes and alkenes Broken down into small molecules, including alkenes such as ethene, in a process known as cracking Thermal cracking and catalytic cracking (occurs at lower temperatures using zeolites - aluminosilicates) atalytic cracking has been examined in past exams e.g. see 2008 Q16, 2012 Q26, 2013 Q8 No 7

11 Reactions of Alkenes Alkanes (e.g. 3 3 ethane), due to the lack of the double bond, D NT undergo addition reactions This allows alkenes and alkanes to be readily distinguished from each other For example, if an alkene is present, addition of an orangered solution of Br 2 in a solvent leads to almost instantaneous decolourisation of the Br 2 No 11

12 Reactions of Alkenes Distinguishing between alkanes and alkenes examined 2008 Q16; 2005 Q16; addition Br 2 to an unsaturated compound was examined 2009 Q6; 2010 Q11, Q24; 2011 Q11; 2013 Q8 No 12

22 Teflon Information Polytetrafluoroethylene Man skating on Teflon No 22

23 Addition Polymers Properties For a given type of polymer, the longer the polymer chain (higher molecular weight), the higher the melting point and the harder the substance is The less branched a polymer is, the more ordered the chains are and more crystalline the substance is. This leads to a more dense, higher melting point, tough and hard substance The bigger the side group, the less flexible the substance is, e.g. polystyrene (benzene, 6 5 group) is typically a hard, stiff plastic compared to polyethylene No 23

24 Addition Polymers Past Exams ow alkenes can be used to make new materials Identifying the monomer(s) or polymer in a polymerisation reaction (when given one of the two) Relating the properties exhibited by a polymer(s) to the structure of the polymer(s) and uses of that polymer(s) In 2011 needed to compare the properties of polystyrene with a biopolymer In 2012 needed to recognise polymerisation of ethene in the presence of a catalyst shown by using models In 2013 needed to show how polyetheylene and a biopolymer are formed No 24

34 ellulose - an Important source ellulose contains basic building blocks for making starting molecules for petrochemicals, such as ethene (2 atoms), propene (3 atoms) and butene (4 atoms, a starting point for synthetic rubber) onsiderable scientific effort looking at cellulose as an alternative source of chemicals now obtained from oil Industries producing ethanol from cellulose for use as a biofuel No 34

35 ondensation Polymers Past Exams Identifying the monomer(s) or polymer in a polymerisation reaction (when given one of the two) Related to this questions are also often asked about esters, their properties, names and how made Recognising the structure of cellulose, that it is a condensation polymer formed from loss of water, is a major component of biomass, and is of interest as a source of chemicals we now obtain from oil Discussing preparation, properties and provide structures of polymers, including cellulose, was a feature of 2010, 2011 and 2013 exams No 35

36 Ethanol As a Solvent Ethanol is a commonly used solvent It is a polar molecule The - and - bonds are polar due to the atom being more electronegative than the and It can hydrogen-bond and undergo dipole-dipole interactions with polar molecules helping them to dissolve (like dissolves like) It also has a non-polar portion ( 3 ) which helps it dissolve less polar molecules No 36

37 Ethanol Production Fermentation Ethene from catalytic cracking is the main industrial source of ethanol Fermentation is a process in which glucose (typically) is broken down to ethanol and carbon dioxide by the action of enzymes present in yeast A suitable grain or fruit is mashed up with water; yeast is added; air is excluded (anaerobic); and the mixture is kept at about o Enzymes in the mixture convert any starch/sucrose to glucose and/or fructose and then glucose/fructose to ethanol and (aq) (aq) (g) No 37

38 Ethanol as Fuel Ethanol readily burns through a combustion/oxidation reaction to give carbon dioxide, water and energy 3 2 (l) (g) -> 2 2 (g) + 2 (g) + energy = kj/mol heat of combustion No 38

39 Ethanol as Fuel Ethanol is increasingly being used as a fuel due to it being a renewable resource referred to as biofuel ommonly being produced from starch or sugars from a wide variety of crops, including sugar cane and corn onsiderable debate due to land required for crops and energy-pollution balance (inc greenhouse gas) Ethtec, based in NSW, is developing methods to get ethanol from cellulosic waste such as wood, bagasse (waste from sugar production), crop stubble and municipal green waste No 39

40 Ethanol Past S Exams Production of ethanol from hydration and fermentation and comparison to catalytic cracking, its use as a solvent and comparison to water, combustion reactions of it and other alcohols and fuels, its use as a fuel, including the advantages and disadvantages, are all commonly assessed No 40
