Frage Antworten
Alcohols will react with compounds containing halide ions (e.g. NaBr). What is this reaction called? Substitution reaction
What happens during a substitution reaction involving alcohols and compounds containing halide ions? The -OH group is replaced by the halide, so the alcohol is transformed into a haloalkane
What are the reactants and conditions required for a substitution reaction in alcohols to form haloalkanes? A compound containing a halide (e.g. NaBr) Acid catalyst (e.g. H₂SO₄)
Give a general balanced symbol equation for the reaction between R-OH and NaX R-OH + NaX --> R-X + Na⁺ + H₂O
Alkenes can be made from alcohols. What type of reaction does this involve? Elimination reaction (Sometimes called a dehydration reaction)
Give a general equation for the elimination of water to form an alkene from an alcohol, showing the displayed formula of the reactants and products
What is the water molecule that is eliminated made up from? The -OH group and a hydrogen atom that was bonded to a carbon atom adjacent to the hydroxyl carbon
TRUE OR FALSE: There are two possible alkene products from one elimination TRUE The product depends on which side of the hydroxyl group the hydrogen is eliminated from
Complete the sentence: Sometimes an alkene product can form ______ isomers - if this is the case then a mixture of BOTH will form. Sometimes an alkene product can form E/Z isomers - if this is the case then a mixture of BOTH will form.
