Question

d) Write the conversion for
1. Methane to chloroform
2. Ethene to ethane
3. Ethyl alcohol to ethene
4. Ethene to polythene
5. Sodium acetate to methane​

Answer 1

Answer:

1. To create chloroform (CHCl3) from methane, you need to add chlorine to it and then heat the compound under 400 and 500 degrees Celsius. CH3Cl or chloromethane and hydrochloric acid are formed. Repeat the process with the chloromethane just like done with methane
2. Conversion of an Unsaturated alkene-Ethene(C2H4) to a saturated alkane-Ethane(C2H6) involves a REDUCTION PROCESS. An alkene contains a Double bond which is substituted for with HYDROGEN atoms in an alkane in the reduction process. Basically, ADDITION OF HYDROGEN or REMOVAL OF OXYGEN is REDUCTION ᏢᏒᎾᏨᎬᏕᏕ

3 Ethanol can be dehydrated to give ethene by heating it with an excess of concentrated sulphuric acid at about 170°C. Concentrated phosphoric(V) acid, H3PO4, can be used instead. The acids aren't written into the equation because they serve as ᏨᎯᎿᎯᏝᎽᏕᎿᏕ

2. The reaction is done at high pressures in the presence of a trace of oxygen as an initiator. During the polymerization of ethene, thousands of ethene molecules join together to make poly(ethene) - commonly called polythene. The reaction is done at high pressures in the presence of a trace of oxygen as an initiator.
