Frage Antworten
Hydrocarbon A compound of hydrogen and carbon only
Atom Economy Molecular mass of desired products/Molecular mass of sum of products
Homologous series A series of organic compounds with the same functional group but with each successive member differing by CH2
Functional Group A group of atoms responsible for the characteristic reactions of a compound
saturated contains carbon to carbon single bonds only
unsaturated containing Carbon to Carbon double bonds only
Empirical Formula The simplest whole number ratio of atoms of each element present in a compound
Molecular Formula The actual number of atoms of each element in a molecule
Structural Isomers compounds with the same molecular formula but with a different structural formulae
Stereoisomers compounds with the same structural formula but with a different arrangement of atoms in space
E/Z Isomerism An example of stereoisomerism in terms of restricted rotation about a double bond and the requirement for two different groups to be attached to each carbon in the C=C group
Cis-Trans Isomerism A special case of E/Z isomerism in which two of the substituent groups are the same
Fractional Distillation Separation of a liquid mixture into fractions with different boiling points
Catalytic Cracking The breaking down of long chained saturated hydrocarbons to form more useful alkanes and alkenes
Biofuel A fuel that is derived from recently living materials such as plants or from the waste of animals
Curly Arrow The moving of an electron pair showing either the breaking or formation of a covalent bond
Radical A species with an unpaired electron
Homolytic Fission The breaking of a covalent bond, where the shared pair of electrons are split equally forming two radicals
Heterolytic Fission The breaking of a covalent bond where the shared pair of electrons are not split equally, forming a cation and an anion
Electrophile Species attracted to an electron rich center where it accepts a pair of electrons to form a new covalent bond
Nucleophile Species attracted to an electron deficient centre where it donates a pair of electrons to form a new covalent bond
Exothermic Heat is given out to the surroundings
Endothermic Heat is taken in from the surroundings (the reactants gain energy)
Activation energy The minimum energy required to start a reaction by breaking the bonds
Standard Conditions -A Pressure of 100 kPa -Temperature of 25 degrees -Concentration of 1.0moldm3
Standard enthalpy change of reaction The enthalpy change that accompanies a reaction in the molar quantities expressed in the chemical equation (under standard conditions, all products and reactants in their standard states)
Standard Enthalpy change of combustion The enthalpy change that takes place when one mole of substance reacts completely with oxygen (under standard conditions, all reactants and products being in their standard states)
Average bond enthalpy The average enthalpy change that takes place, by homolytic fission, 1 mol of a given bond in the molecules of gaseous species
Catalyst speeds up a reaction without being consumed by the overall reaction
Volatility The ease that a liquid turns into gas
Dynamic Equilibrium The equilibrium that exists in a closed system when the rate of the forward reaction is equal to the rate of the reverse
Le Chatelier's Principle When a system in dynamic equilibrium is subjected to change, the position of the equilibrium will shift to minimize the change
