Functional group of alcohol molecules
-OH
Conditions for hydration of ethene
• 300c • 65atm pressure • Phosphoric Acid Catalyst
Raw material used in hydration of ethene
Crude oil - provides the ethene
Advantages of hydration of ethene
• Runs continuously • Makes pure ethanol
Hydration of ethene equation
Ethene + Water –> Ethanol
Disadvantages to hydration of ethene
• Conditions require lots of energy • Non-renewable raw material used
Disadvantages to hydration of ethene
• Conditions require lots of energy • Non-renewable raw material used
Conditons for fermentation of glucose
• Yeast to provide enzymes • 30c • Anaerobic conditions
Conditons for fermentation of glucose
• Yeast to provide enzymes • 30c • Anaerobic conditions
Raw material used in fermentation of glucose
Sugar cane - provides the glucose
Fermentation of glucose equation
Glucose –> 2Ethanol + 2Carbon Dioxide
Advantages to fermentation of glucose
• Renewable resource used • Conditions not energy intensive
Disadvantages to fermentation of glucose
• Makes impure ethanol • Must be done in individual batches
Observation for combustion of ethanol
Non-luminous, blue flame
Equation for ethanol combustion
Ethanol + 3Oxygen –> 2Carbon Dioxide + 2Water
What happens to ethanol when it is microbially or chemically oxidated
It becomes ethanoic acid
When can microbial oxidation occur
In aerobic conditions
Microbial oxidation of ethanol equation
Ethanol + 2[O] –> Ethanoic Acid + Water
Conditions for chemical oxidation of ethanol
• Potassium dichromate (K2Cr2O7) • Dilute Sulfuric Acid
Conditions for chemical oxidation of ethanol
• Potassium dichromate (K2Cr2O7) • Dilute Sulfuric Acid
Chemical oxidation of ethanol equation
Ethanol + 2[O] –> Ethanoic Acid + Water
What is the colour change in microbial oxidation
Orange –> Green
Functional group of carboxylic acids
-COOH
What is vinegar
An aqueous solution of ethanoic acid
