Study Notes
Solubility Concepts
- Polar molecules dissolve in polar solvents due to dipole-dipole and hydrogen bonding.
- Non-polar molecules dissolve in non-polar solvents through dispersion forces.
- Polar and non-polar molecules do not mix, as polar molecules engage stronger interactions with themselves compared to non-polar counterparts.
- The principle of "like dissolves like" is key in solubility.
Intermolecular Forces and Solubility
- Alkanes: Non-polar, soluble in non-polar solvents, insoluble in water.
- Alkenes: Non-polar, similar solubility characteristics as alkanes.
- Haloalkanes: Generally insoluble in water due to non-polar characteristics.
- Alcohols: Polar, soluble in water due to hydrogen bonding.
- Ketones: Polar, also soluble in water due to hydrogen bonding.
- Carboxylic Acids: Polar and soluble, can form strong hydrogen bonds in water.
- Amines: Polar compounds, soluble in water due to hydrogen bonding.
- Amides: Polar, soluble in water through hydrogen bonding.
- Aldehydes: Polar and generally soluble in water.
- Ethers: Polar but may have varying solubility in water depending on structure.
- Benzene: Non-polar and insoluble in water.
Alkene vs Alkane Reactions
- Alkenes are unsaturated and can undergo addition reactions.
- When bromine (Br₂) is added to alkenes, the solution turns colorless, indicating a reaction.
- Alkanes are saturated and do not undergo addition reactions like alkenes.
Iodine Number
- The Iodine number indicates the mass of iodine that reacts with a fat or oil sample, reflecting its degree of unsaturation.
- Calculation example: If 100 g of fat reacts with iodine to yield a product mass of 320 g, the Iodine number is determined using the formula.
Oxidation Tests
- Dichromate (Cr₂O₇²⁻) and Permanganate (MnO₄⁻) are common oxidizing agents.
- Color changes indicate reactions:
- Purple to pale pink/colourless for MnO₄⁻.
- Orange to green for Cr₂O₇²⁻.
- Propan-1-ol oxidizes, while propan-2-ol and 2-methyl-propan-2-ol show different reactivities.
Carbonate Test
- Carbonate test confirms acidity through the reaction of acids with sodium carbonate or sodium hydrogen carbonate.
- Observations include gas bubbles (CO₂) formation for acids.
- This test is non-specific as it can yield positive results for various acids, not solely carboxylic acids.
General Chemistry Notes
- Oxidation reactions vary by alcohol type (primary, secondary, tertiary).
- Unsaturated compounds exhibit unique chemical behaviors versus saturated ones, crucial for understanding organic reactions.
- When testing for functional groups, utilizing color change indicators can provide visual confirmations of chemical transformations.
