Gasohol is a mixture of 90% gasoline and 10% ethanol, CH 3CH 2OH. Ethanol is considered an environmentally friendly fuel additive because it can be made from a renewable source—sugarcane. Ethanol burns in air to form CO 2 and H 2O, and, like the combustion of alkanes, this reaction also releases a great deal of energy. Write a balanced equation for the combustion of ethanol.
Based on your knowledge of boiling point trends in alkanes, predict which compound has the higher boiling point, butane or 2-methylpropane (isobutane).
Based on your knowledge of boiling point trends in alkanes, predict which compound has the higher boiling point, butane or 2-methylpropane (isobutane).
a. isobutane would have a higher boiling point, since the greater the surface area, the higher the boiling point.
b. Butane would have a higher boiling point, since the greater the surface area, the higher the boiling point.
c. Butane would have a higher boiling point, since the smaller the surface area, the higher the boiling point.
d. Isobutane would have a higher boiling point, since the smaller the surface area, the higher the boiling point.
Name and draw structural formulas for all alkenes with the molecular formula C5H10. As you draw these alkenes, remember that cis and trans isomers are different compounds and must be counted separately

- As stated in Section 11-9, the wax found in apple skins is an unbranched alkane with the molecular formula C^H^. Explain how the presence of this alkane in apple skins prevents the loss of moisture from within the apple.arrow_forwardDistinguish between isomerism and resonance. Distinguish between structural and geometric isomerism. When writing the various structural isomers, the most difficult task is identifying which are different isomers and which are identical to a previously written structurethat is, which are compounds that differ only by the rotation of a carbon single bond. How do you distinguish between structural isomers and those that are identical? Alkenes and cycloalkanes are structural isomers of each other. Give an example of each using C4H8. Another common feature of alkenes and cycloalkanes is that both have restricted rotation about one or more bonds in the compound, so both can exhibit cis- trans isomerism. What is required for an alkene or cycloalkane to exhibit cis-trans isomerism? Explain the difference between cis and trans isomers. Alcohols and ethers are structural isomers of each other, as are aldehydes and ketones. Give an example of each to illustrate. Which functional group in Table 21-4 can be structural isomers of carboxylic acids? What is optical isomerism? What do you look for to determine whether an organic compound exhibits optical isomerism? 1-Bromo-1-chloroethane is optically active whereas 1-bromo-2-chloroethane is not optically active. Explain.arrow_forwardWhat is the difference in bonding and in general molecular formula between an alkene and a cycloalkane with the same number of carbon atoms?arrow_forward
- How does the structure of a cycloalkane differ from that of a straight-chain or branched-chain alkane?arrow_forwardNatural gas and petroleum deposits make up the world’s largest source of alkanes. Refinement of petroleum followed by distillation produces fuels for vehicles where the fuels undergo combustion. However, not all fuels are judged as “good fuel”, some are “poor fuel”. Hence, the “octane number” was developed to determine the type of fuel. Why is the straight-chain alkane octane considered as poor fuel with an octane number = 0 and a branched-chain alkane 2,2,4-Trimethylpentane with an octane number = 100?arrow_forward1. Give two organic compounds. The first compound must be a synthetic or man-made organic compound and the second compound must be a natural product or organic compound from natural sources (medicinal plant, coral, animal such as snail or microorganism such as bacteria or fungi). Compounds must have equal to or more than twenty carbon atoms. 2. Your chosen organic compound must have application in the management of human health or veterinary medicine.
