What type of hydrocarbon is good for gasoline? |
Small Burn slowly Keep an engine running smoothly |
|
Catalysts |
Substance that helps a reaction along but is not changed after the reaction has finished required for "cracking" |
|
Fractional distillation |
Separates hydrocarbon molecules based on size |
|
Reactivity of metals and ions |
Data booklet Gold ION = most reactive Gold METAL = least reactive |
|
Cracking |
Breaks long alkane molecules into shorter alkanes and alkanes |
|
Alkanes vs alkenes vs alkynes |
ANE = single bond ENE = double bonds YNE = triple bonds |
|
Maximum bonding capacity of carbon & why it's special |
4 hydrogens can be bonded to 1 carbon Can form many compounds because it has 4 max. bonds and has a small size Highest number of bonding electrons |
|
Saturated vs non saturated |
Saturated = Saturated fats straight molecules Solid at room temperature Alkane (single bond) Bad Stable High melting/boiling point
Unsaturated: Unsaturated fats Bended molecules Liquids at room temperature Alkene (double bond) Good Not stable Low melting/boiling point |
|
Omega 6 vs Omega 3 |
Omega 3 is better! Essential fatty acids: Body can't make these, only in food 6: Clotting Inflammation 3: Reduce swelling Slow blood clotting |
