Hydrocarbons Integrated Science
2
Rule # 1 Only hydrogen and only carbon
3
Rule # 2 Carbon makes 4 bonds
4
Rule # 3 Hydrogen makes 1 bond
5
Rule # 4 Carbon is the backbone
6
3 pictures…1 compound
8
Naming Hydrocarbons Use prefixeswith “ane” – 1 carbonmeth-methane – 2 carbons eth-ethane – 3 carbonsprop-propane – 4 carbonsbut-butane – 5 carbonspent - pentane
9
Practice Naming Count the Carbons!
10
Why do we care about hydrocarbons? They are used in combustion reactions…and we all know that we love fire! – Heating Homes – Cooking – Gasoline – Jet fuel – Diesel fuel – Wax – Asphalt
11
Natural Gas has methane
12
Butane is in lighters
13
Gasoline and diesel are full of hydrocarbons Before purified, crude oil has hydrocarbons with 3- 20+ carbons Purified Gasoline < 10 carbons Purified Diesel > 10 carbons Separated by distillation (boiling)…smaller hydrocarbons boil at lower temperatures
14
Asphalt is made from Crude Oil
15
Wax is a mixture of hydrocarbons with 20-40 carbons.
16
Plastics are made from really long hydrocarbons (50+ carbons)
