  • Explain how temperature affects the rate of reaction
    more particles have E > Ea AND increase in collision frequency
  • What is a buffer solution?
    A solution that resists pH change when a small amount of strong acid/base is added to it
  • Draw the structure of a biodiesel
    (biodiesel structure)
  • Give 3 differences of soap and detergent
    soaps are carboxylate salts, det are sulfonate salts; soaps are from fats/oils, det are petro products; soaps form scum in hard water, det dont
  • Draw the stucture of glycerol
    (glycerol structure)
  • State the optimum conditions and the catalyst used in the Haber Process
    T=450C; P=200atm; Fe catalyst
  • Name this molecule
    heptan-2-amine
  • Identify this amino acid
    tryptophan
  • Draw the structure of a soap
    (soap structure)
  • Identify this amino acid
    valine
  • Identify this amino acid
    cysteine
  • Give the 4 characteristics of Chemical Equilibrium
    only in a closed system | rate of forward reaction = the rate of reverse reaction | no change in macroscopic properties | can be attained from either direction
  • State the Le Chatelier's Principle
    "If a dynamic equilibrium is disturbed by changing the conditions, the position of equilibrium moves to counteract the change"
  • Name this molecule
    2-methylhexan-3-one
  • Give 2 ways to prevent corrosion of metals
    galvanization (using sacrificial anode); painting/greasing
  • Using collision theory, explain the effect of removing reactant particles on the equilibrium system
    less reactant particles colliding, forward reaction slows down; reverse reaction rate intially stays the same; overall, there's a shift backwards
  • Draw the structure of a simple triglyceride
    (triglyceride structure; hydrophobic chains represented by R)
  • Name this molecule
    Pentanamide
  • Name this molecule
    2,3-dimethylbut-2-ene
  • List 2 observations for the reaction between: Chromium(III) nitrate solution and magnesium ribbon
    silver/grey solid dissolves | blackish/grey/silver solid forms | solution becomes less green/colourless
  • Explain how detergents are able to remove grease from a surface by referring to the intermolecular forces present.
    (mentions IMF between det and water; IMF between det and grease; mentions agitation and being washed away)
  • List 2 observations for the reaction between: Iron filings and dilute hydrochloric acid
    colourless, (odourless) bubbles /effervescence/gas | silver/grey solid dissolves | (pale) green solution formed
  • Identify this amino acid
    glycine
  • Name this molecule
    butyl methanoate
  • Name this molecule
    3-chloropropanal
  • State 2 reasons why galvanic cells need a salt bridge.
    maintains charge neutrality | completes the circuit | allows transfer of ions between two half-cells | prevents polarisation.
