TASK 4 0711

OBJECTIVES

1. When 10 cm3 of a gaseous hydrocarbon was completely burnt in 70 cm3 of oxygen (excess),

30 cm3 of carbon dioxide was produced and 20 cm3 of oxygen remain unreacted, all volumes
being

measured at the same temperature and pressure. What is the formula of the hydrocarbon?

A CH4 B CH3CH3 C CH3CH2CH3 D CH3CH2CH2CH3

2. Tetramethyl-lead(lV) increases the rate of the reaction of methane with chlorine.

CH4(g) + Cl2(g) → CH3Cl(g) + HCl(g)

Why can tetramethyl-lead(IV) behave in this way?

A It is a source of methyl radicals.

B It releases CH3+(g).

C It reacts with chloromethane and prevents equilibrium being established.

D Metal ions catalyse the reaction.

3. 2-Butanol → 2-Butene → 2- Chlorobutane

B Concentrated H2SO4 Hydrogen chloride gas
C Aqueous HNO3 Hydrogen chloride
D Acidified KMnO4 Aqueous HCl

4. CH3CH2Br reacts with an aqueous solution of potassium hydroxide forming CH3CH2OH, whereas

(CH3)3Br reacts with an ethanolic solution of potassium hydroxide forming CH2 = C(CH3)2 as the
major product. Which statement is true about the two reactions ?

A The reactions occur at room temperature.


B The reactions occur through the formation of carbocation.
C The reactions are nucleophilic substitution and elimination respectively.

D The rate of each reaction is independent of the concentration of OH– ions.


5. Nitrobenzene may be made by reacting benzene with a mixture of concentrated sulphuric and

nitric acids.

Which of the following best explains the role of the sulphuric acid?
