Reactions of Alkanes • They burn! • Hydrocarbon and Oxygen yields Carbon Dioxide and Water
Reactions of Alkanes Substitution Rxn
Reactions of AlkenesAddition Reactions • Alkenes are unsaturated— more single bonds can form to the C atoms • Molecules such as Br2, H2, HCl, HBr, and H2O add to the double bond
Addition Rxn Halogenation | | | | C = C + X2 - C - C - | | | | X X X = Cl2, Br2, I2
An Addition Reaction Fat placed in Br2 vapor Unsaturated Fats
An Addition Reaction The fat in bacon is partially unsaturated. The fat adds Br2 to the C=C bonds.
Addition Rxn | | | | C = C + H2 - C - C - | | | | H H Pt cat
An Addition Reaction • Fats can be “hydrogenated” with H2. Saturated Fats Peanut butter has partially hydrogenated vegetable oil.
Addition Rxn | | | | C = C + HX - C - C - | | | | H X H+
Addition Rxn | | | | C = C + HOH - C - C - | | | | H OH H+

Alcohol ReactionsScreen 11.6 Elimination—the reverse of addition Substitution
More Alcohol Reactions Ethanol is a PRIMARY ALCOHOL. It is oxidized to an ALDEHYDE and then to an ACID.
More Alcohol Reactions SECONDARY ALCOHOLS are oxidized to KETONES — and reaction stops there.

Polymers • Giant molecules made by joining many small molecules called monomers • Average production is 150 kg per person annually in the U.S.
Polymer Classifications • Thermoplastics (polyethylene) soften and flow when heated • Thermosetting plastics — soft initially but set to solid when heated. Cannot be resoftened. • Other classification: plastics, fibers, elastomers, coatings, adhesives
Polymer Preparation • Addition polymers — directly adding monomer units together • Condensation polymers — combining monomer units and splitting out a small water (water)
Polyethylene: Addition Polymer Ethylene Polyethylene A polymer with a molar mass of 1 x 106 has about 360,000 units.
Linear, high density PE (HDPE) Types of Polyethylene Branched, low density PE, LDPE Cross-linked PE, CLPE
Types of Polyethylene Table 11.12: others are PVC, acrylonitrile, polypropylene, polymethyl methacrylate
Polystyrene • Polystyrene is nonpolar material and dissolves in organic solvents. • PS foam is mostly air, and when it dissolves it collapses to a much smaller volume.
Slime! Slime is polyvinylalcohol cross-linked with boric acid
Bubble Gum!A copolymer Styrene + butadiene
Polyesters, PET Jackets made from recycled PET soda bottles Soda bottles, mylar film.
Polymer Recycling Symbols LDPE = Low density PE = 0.910-0.925 g/cm3 HDPE = High density PE = 0.941-0.965 PP = Polypropylene = 0.90 V = PVC (Vinyl chloride) = 1.30-1.58
