Organic Reactions
Combustion
Reaction with O2 – burning Hydrocarbons: Sufficient O2 leads to complete combustion products of complete combustion: CO2 & H2O C3H8(g) + 5O2(g) 3CO2(g) + 4H2O(g) Insufficient O2 leads to incomplete combustion: products of incomplete combustion: C, CO, & H2O C3H8(g) + 2O2(g) 3C(s) + 4H2O(g)
Substitution
HCCH + ClCl HCCH + HCl start with saturated hydrocarbon replace 1+ H atoms with another atom or group 2 products C2H6 + Cl2 C2H5Cl + HCl HCCH + ClCl HCCH + HCl H H H Cl H H H H
Addition
HC=CH + ClCl HCCH add across double or triple bond start with unsaturated hydrocarbon produce only 1 saturated product HC=CH + ClCl HCCH C2H4 + Cl2 C2H4Cl2 H H Cl Cl H H
Esterification
Organic Acid + Alcohol Ester + Water HCCOH + HOCCCH H O H H H = H H H H H O H H H = HCCOCCCH + H2O H H H H
Saponification
Making Soap Fat + Base Glycerol + Soap
H C O = H OCC17H35 NaOH O = H OCC17H35 + O = H OCC17H35 FAT + Base (Triglyceride)
H COH O = NaOCC17H35 H O = + H NaOCC17H35 O H = NaOCC17H35 Soap Glycerol +
Fermentation
Sugars broken down into alcohol + CO2 (enzyme is needed) C6H12O6 2C2H5OH + 2CO2 zymase sugar ethanol carbon dioxide
They are all made up of giant molecules called polymers What do the protein in eggs, the plastic in soda bottles, and the nylon in stockings have in common? They are all made up of giant molecules called polymers Poly means many Mers means parts
Polymers Very large molecules consisting of many repeating structural units Analogy = chain consisting of many links Masses can be > 1,000,000 amu Monomer: Molecule from which polymer is made Starting material
Natural Polymers Wool Silk Rubber Starch Proteins Nucleic Acids
Synthetic Polymers Plastics – polyethylene, PVC Synthetic Fibers – nylon, rayon, polyester Rubber Substitutes – polyurethane Polymerization = reaction that produces a polymer
Polymerization Reactions
Addition Polymerization: - start with unsaturated monomers - everything in reactants goes into polymer -only 1 product, saturated
