22. M. Rahman C1 TOPIC 5 22) The larger the hydrocarbon.. a)The higher the boiling point b) The lower the boiling point Answers a) The higher the boiling point

23. M. Rahman C1 TOPIC 5 23) What are the products of the complete combustion of hydrocarbon? Answers Carbon dioxide + water

24. M. Rahman C1 TOPIC 5 24) When does incomplete combustion take place? Answers When there is a lack of oxygen-ie when gas heaters are not well ventilated.

25. M. Rahman C1 TOPIC 5 25) Why is incomplete combustion unsafe? Answers It produces a odourless gas called carbon monoxide which is poisonous.

26. M. Rahman C1 TOPIC 5 26) What are the four things that need to be considered when choosing the best fuel? Answers a)Ease of ignition b)Amount of energy released c) Amount of smoke and ash produced. d) How easy it is to store and transport.

27. M. Rahman C1 TOPIC 5 27) How is acid rain formed? Answers Sulphur impurities in fossil fuels burn in oxygen to produce Sulphur dioxide. Sulphur dioxide reacts with rain water to produce acid rain

28. M. Rahman C1 TOPIC 5 28) What are the problems with acid rain? (3) Answers Lakes become acidic-plants and animals die Kills trees damages limestone buildings and statues.

29. M. Rahman C1 TOPIC 5 29) List three ways of reducing acid rain? (3) Answers Line chimneys of power stations with alkali-neutralises acidic gases before released into the atmosphere. Sulphur removed from fuels before they are burnt-low sulphur petrol. Reduce use of fossil fuels.

30. M. Rahman C1 TOPIC 5 30) Give the name of the three main green house gases and explain how they cause the earth to heat-up (3) Answers. Carbon dioxide Methane Water vapour. They act like a blanket above the earth atmosphere to (trap) AND re- radiate back to earth

31. M. Rahman C1 TOPIC 5 31) Explain how iron seeding is used to reduce carbon dioxide levels (3). Answers. Iron is needed by plants for photosynthesis. Injecting iron into oceans promotes phytoplankton growth. Phytoplankton absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.

32. M. Rahman C1 TOPIC 5 32*) Explain how carbon capture is used to reduce carbon dioxide levels (3). Answers. This involves converting waste CO 2 to useful hydrocarbons. Short chain hydrocarbon are easy to make but longer chains (needed for petrol) are more difficult to produce) (Require, high temperature and pressure and a catalyst)

33. M. Rahman C1 TOPIC 5 33*) What is biogas ? Answers. Produced by microorganism which decompose living organism waste/dead plants which is used as fuel.

34. M. Rahman C1 TOPIC 5 34*) What is bioethanol ? Answers. Sugar cane and sugar beet can be used as sources of sugar. The sugars are then fermented by using yeast to produce ethanol which is used as fuel.

35. M. Rahman C1 TOPIC 5 35) Name four advantages of using biofuel? Answers. They are clean fuel and does not produce carbon particulates They are renewable They are carbon neutral and add less carbon dioxide to the atmosphere compared to fossil fuels. Less crude oil is used as fuel and so the reserves will last longer.

36. M. Rahman C1 TOPIC 5 36) Name four disadvantages of using biofuel? Answers. Land is needed to grow biofuels and so there is less land available for growing food and for homes. This may lead to a shortage of food and food prices rising Lots of crops required to provide a small amount of bio- methane When making biofuels energy is needed to transport the crops and to fertilise the crops. Bad season reduces availability of biofuels.

37. M. Rahman C1 TOPIC 5 37) Which gases do fuel cells combine to produce energy? Answers. Hydrogen and Oxygen

38. M. Rahman C1 TOPIC 5 38) List 5 advantages of fuel cells? Answers. They are much more efficient than batteries or power station Electricity is directly produced from the reactions so no turbines are needed. Don’t produce CO 2 -so don’t contribute global warming Don’t release SO 2 -don’t contribute to acid rain. Only by-product is water-which is harmless.

39. M. Rahman C1 TOPIC 5 39)What are the major disadvantages of fuel cells? Answers. A lot of energy is needed to make Hydrogen from water in the first place. This means burning fossil fuels is required, but to a smaller extent. Hydrogen is both highly explosive and flammable, so transport and storage can be a problem.
