Key Questions:

1. What is the functional group for alochols?
   • Alcohols contain the functional group -OH.
2. What are the names of the first four members of the homologous series of alcohols?
   • Methanol, ethanol, propanol and butanol are the first four members of a homologous series of alcohols.
3. What are the names and structural formula for the first four members of the homologous series of alcohols?
   • The structural formula for the first four members of the homologous series of alochols are: methanol = CH3OH ethanol = CH3CH2OH propanol = CH3CH2CH2OH butanol = CH3CH2CH2CH2OH
4. What happens when when alochols react with sodium?
   • When alcohols react with sodium they produce hydrogen gas
5. Name the following alcohols from their formula: a) C2H5OH b) C3H7OH c) C6H11OH
   • a) Ethanol b) Propanol c) Hexanol
6. What happens when when alochol burns in air?
   • When alcohols are burnt in air they combust to form water and carbon dioxide, releasing Energy
7. What pH solutions are formed when alcohols are added to water?
   • When alcohols are added to water they form a neutral solution (OH- and XH )
8. What are the main uses of alcohols?
   • The main uses of alochols are fuels, producing alocholic drinks, cleaning products, making esters
9. How can ethanol be produced from sugar?
   • Aqueous solutions of ethanol are produced when sugar solutions are fermented using yeast.
10. What are the conditions used during the fermentation of sugar to produce ethanol?
    • Fermintation of ethanol from sugar requires water, enzymes from yeast, temperature between 25-40 degress celcius and an absence of oxygen
