HYDROCARBONS | compounds with hydrogen and carbon only |
HOMOLOGOUS SERIES | a group of compounds that contain the same functional group and each successive member differs by CH 2 |
FUNCTIONAL GROUP | a group of atoms on which the characteristic properties of a homologous series depends |
ISOMERS | compounds with the same molecular formula but differ in structure |
Saturated compounds | contain all single bonds C-C |
UNSATURATED COMPOUNDS | contain double or triple bonds c=c or C≡C |
ADDITION REACTIONS | involve unsaturated compounds |
SUBSTITUTION REACTIONS | involve saturated compounds |
ELIMINATION REACTION | a small molecule is removed from a larger molecule to leave a double bond in the larger molecule, water is also lost |
CONDENSATION REACTION | two molecules combine to form a larger molecule and water |
RECRYSTALLISATION | a process used to separate a solid from a solid impurities by dissolving in a minimum amount of hot solvent |
REFLUX | allows the reaction to be boiled without losing any volatile material |
AROMATIC COMPOUNDS | molecules that contain a benzene ring in their structure |
ALIPHATIC COMPOUNDS | straight or branched chained molecules or molecules that contain ring structures, other than a benzene ring |
POLYMERISATION | when small molecules(monomers) are joined together to make large molecules(polymers) |
FRACTIONAL DISTILLATION | a mixture of different liquids are separated into different components depending on their boiling points |
LIQUID-LIQUID EXTRACTION | a technique used to separate two immiscible liquids using a solvent in which one of the liquids has a higher solubility than the other. |
CATALYTIC CRACKING | the breaking down of long chained molecules into many smaller molecules |
AUTO-IGNITION | the early explosion of the petrol/air mixture due to compression of the piston rather than by a spark |
KNOCKING | the noise/vibration produced in an engine as a result of auto-ignition |
OCTANE NUMBER | the measure of tendency of the fuel to resist auto-ignition |
OXYGENATES | any fuel that contains oxygen in its molecule e.g. ethanol |
REFORMING DEHYDROCYCLISATION | the use of catalysts to form aromatic compounds a cyclic compound and hydrogen is produced as a by-product |
