Mineral oil and Vaseline are both mixtures of alkanes, but mineral oil is a liquid at room temperature and Vaseline is a solid. Which product is composed of alkanes that contain a larger number of carbon atoms? Explain your choice.
Petroleum products such as kerosene and gasoline are separated using fractional distillation. Each of them has their own properties and usage. Why can't we use one petroleum product as a substitute for the other when they are composed majority of alkanes?
Gasohol is a mixture of 90% gasoline and 10% ethanol, CH 3CH 2OH. Ethanol is considered an environmentally friendly fuel additive because it can be made from a renewable source—sugarcane. Ethanol burns in air to form CO 2 and H 2O, and, like the combustion of alkanes, this reaction also releases a great deal of energy. Write a balanced equation for the combustion of ethanol.

- Distinguish between isomerism and resonance. Distinguish between structural and geometric isomerism. When writing the various structural isomers, the most difficult task is identifying which are different isomers and which are identical to a previously written structurethat is, which are compounds that differ only by the rotation of a carbon single bond. How do you distinguish between structural isomers and those that are identical? Alkenes and cycloalkanes are structural isomers of each other. Give an example of each using C4H8. Another common feature of alkenes and cycloalkanes is that both have restricted rotation about one or more bonds in the compound, so both can exhibit cis- trans isomerism. What is required for an alkene or cycloalkane to exhibit cis-trans isomerism? Explain the difference between cis and trans isomers. Alcohols and ethers are structural isomers of each other, as are aldehydes and ketones. Give an example of each to illustrate. Which functional group in Table 21-4 can be structural isomers of carboxylic acids? What is optical isomerism? What do you look for to determine whether an organic compound exhibits optical isomerism? 1-Bromo-1-chloroethane is optically active whereas 1-bromo-2-chloroethane is not optically active.

- Alkenes and alkynes react similarly to each other. Hydrogenation, halogenation, and hydration reactions are all types of addition reactions in which the reagent adds across the multiple bond of the reactant • Hydrogenation is the addition of hydrogen gas in the presence of a catalyst such as platinum, palladium, or nickel. • Halogenation involves a reaction with a halogen such as Cl₂ or Br₂ to produce a dihaloalkane or dihaloalkene product. Hydration reactions take place when alkenes or alkynes react with water in the presence of a strong acid catalyst to yield an alcohol. ▼ Part A Predict the product of the reaction of 1-butene with bromine.
