Add anything you like. It could be little comments, it could be pictures of whiteboard work. Be creative. This is quite a powerful tool. ]]> 2018-02-22 03:16:20 UTC https://padlet.com/lba6/8dik9x5f5ka6/wish/234068835 Summary of the lesson: https://padlet.com/lba6/8dik9x5f5ka6/wish/236789027 Organic Compounds are a large class of chemical compounds in which one or more atoms of carbon are covalently linked to atoms of other elements. Carbon has a strong tendency to bond to other carbons, which is a process called catenation.

3 groups we talked about today:
Alkanes: Saturated [CnH2n+2]
Alkenes: Unsaturated [CnH2n]
Alcohols:  [CnH2n+1]

We also learnt about the homologous series which consist of Alkane (saturated), Alkene (Unsaturated) and Alcohol, example of each are Ethane, Ethene, Ethanol.

Furthermore, we learned about hydrocarbons, which as the names suggests contain Hydrogen and Carbon atoms. Then, we understood the saturated (without C=C double bond) and unsaturated (with C=C bond) compounds. We also learnt the following:

Alkanes:

Chemical Formula: CnH2n+2

Alkenes:
End with 'ene'
Chemical Formula: CnH2n

Alcohols:

I learned that they can be divided into families and that each family is a series of organic substances that contain a number of closely related compounds, also known as a homologous series --> alkanes (saturated compounds, general formula: CnH2n+2), alkenes (unsaturated compounds, general formula: CnH2n) and alcohols (general formula: CnH2n+1OH). ]]> 2018-03-01 09:54:17 UTC https://padlet.com/lba6/8dik9x5f5ka6/wish/236822416 Lesson 2 https://padlet.com/lba6/8dik9x5f5ka6/wish/238985286 Longer hydrocarbons have higher melting points than smaller ones due to their intermolecular forces.

Crude oil itself is not very useful so we separate it using fractional distillation as one of the trend in the homologous series is how the higher number of carbons increase the boiling point which allows for fractional distillation in crude oil.

Crude oil or unprocessed oil is teh mixture of a range of important hydrocarbons with varying length of chains. These can be separated using fractional distillation. The smallest molecules have the weakest intermolecular forces, the least energy required to break bonds and thus, lowest boiling points. Hence, they are found at the top of the fractional distillation column.]]> 2018-03-07 03:19:44 UTC https://padlet.com/lba6/8dik9x5f5ka6/wish/238985463 Lesson 2 https://padlet.com/lba6/8dik9x5f5ka6/wish/238985540 Fractional distillation is used to separate hydrocarbons form themselves.

I learned that the longer hydrocarbons have higher boiling points than the shorter hydrocarbons. This is because longer hydrocarbons have greater IMFs and therefore require more energy/heat to break their bonds. This fact can be used in fractional distillation to separate various hydrocarbons with various boiling points (e.g. petrol, kerosene, diesel). Once separated, these hydrocarbons are put to use (e.g. transport fuel).]]> 2018-03-07 09:33:10 UTC https://padlet.com/lba6/8dik9x5f5ka6/wish/239049046
