Hydrocarbons

Prepared for CSEC Chemistry

By Nicole Kerr-Walker

Objectives

• identify different organic compounds

• identify natural gas and petroleum as natural sources of hydrocarbons

• give (experimental) differences between hydrocarbons

• write fully displayed structures

Poll

Can you write observations comparing alkanes and alkenes?

• Yes, I can give observation differences between alkanes and alkenes

• Somewhat, I think I know one or two differences

• No, I really don't know anything

Sources of Hydrocarbons

• Fractional Distillation is used to separate substances with close boiling points.

• The lower and heavier fractions have a higher boiling point

• The smaller hydrocarbons with low boiling points rises and condenses on bubble caps at the respective boiling points

Multiple Choice

Which fraction collects at the top of the fractionating column?

• Bitumen

• Kerosene

• Petrol

• Refinery Gas

Multiple Choice

What substances are NOT present in refinery gas?

• methane (C1)

• ethane (C2)

• propane (C3)

• octane (C8)

Experimental

• Which hydrocarbon will produce a yellow sooty flame?

• Which hydrocarbon will produce a clean blue flame?

• What a the constituents of liquid petroleum gas?
