Why are alkanes generally unreactive?
● C-C and C-H bonds have a fairly high bond enthalpy and therefore require a lot of energy to overcome.
● The difference in electronegativities of C and H is so small, making it very resistant to reactions with polar reagents.

What is Markovnikov’s rule?
In the electrophilic addition of a hydrogen halide to an asymmetric alkene, the hydrogen atom will bond to the carbon that is already bonded to the most hydrogens. This leads to the formation of the major product.

Draw the mechanism for the electrophilic addition reaction between ethene and bromine
The electron dense C=C bond induces a dipole in the Br2 molecule. The 𝜋 bond breaks and a carbon atom forms a bond with a bromine atom. This leaves a (positive) carbocation that is attracted to the negative bromide ion and hence forms a covalent bond with it.

Draw the mechanism for the electrophilic addition reaction between propene and hydrogen bromide (forming the minor product)
The electron dense C=C double bond is attracted to the slightly positive hydrogen, causing the 𝜋 bond to break and a bond to form between the carbon and hydrogen atom. This leaves a (positive) carbocation that is attracted to the negative bromide ion and hence forms a covalent bond with it.

Why are polymers difficult to dispose of?
● They are non-biodegradable.● The combustion of polymers can often form
harmful compounds, such as HCl for chlorinated polymers.

Why are alkanes suitable for use as fuels?
Alkanes have high standard enthalpy changes of combustion so they release a lot of energy upon combustion.

What are the problems with carbon monoxide?
● Carbon monoxide is poisonous.● It irreversibly binds to haemoglobin, reducing the
amount of oxygen that can be carried in the blood.● Cells may become deoxygenated, leading to cell death.● If too much CO is inhaled, this could lead to death.

Why are atmospheric oxides of nitrogen pollutants?
● Nitrogen monoxide can contribute to the production of acid rain by reacting with chemicals in the clouds.
● Nitrogen dioxide can contribute to photochemical smog.

Describe how a catalytic converter works
Nitrogen monoxide is formed in car engines:N2(g) + O2(g) → 2NO(g)
A catalytic converter has a ceramic honeycomb structure coated in a thin layer of metal catalysts (such as platinum and rhodium). The converter removes the majority of NO so that it isn’t released into the atmosphere:
2NO(g) + 2CO(g) → N2(g) + CO2(g)

What are the environmental consequences of the emission of greenhouse gases?
Greenhouse gases cause the greenhouse effect:
● Electromagnetic radiation from the sun passes through the atmosphere. Some radiation is absorbed by Earth so temperature increases.
● Heat is radiated from the Earth as infrared radiation which is absorbed by greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. This causes the bonds in these molecules to vibrate before this energy is re-emitted.
● As a result, the atmosphere warms up even further, contributing to global warming.
