Pipette- 25cm^3- drop by drop- most accurate (will be used only when 25cm^3 is needed)
Burette- anything between 0 to 25 cm^3 (will be used when the value is in between 0 to 25cm^3)- second best
option
Measuring Cylinder- least accurate
Titration:-
- 25 cm^ 3 of sodium hydroxide solution
- Pipette for greater accuracy
- Conical flask and add a few drops of phenolphthalein indicator- if it turns pink then it is base and
if colourless then it is acid
- We use filtration funnel to avoid spillage

SALTS:
Soluble salt Insoluble salt
Making salts:
For MAZIT For least reactive (<tin) For most reactive (>Mg)
Sulphate (SO42-) ● Add, HCl (dil) + Barium nitrate White precipitate (BaSO4)
● (to acidify)
Sulfite (SO32-) ● Add, HCl (dil) KMnO4 paper turns from purple
● Bring KMnO4 paper near it (test to colourless (because of SO2)
for SO2)
3) CO reduces Fe2O3 to iron Fe2O3 (s) + 3CO (g) → 2Fe (l) + 3CO2 (g) redox
4) Limestone reacts with CaO (s) + SiO2 (s) → CaSiO3 (l) neutralisation
impurities to form slag
1) Zinc Sulfide roasted in air 2ZnS (s) + 3O2 (g) → 2ZnO (s) + 2SO2 (g)
To get Zinc Oxide
2) Zinc Oxide is reduced using Coke ZnO (s) + C (g) → Zn (g) + 2CO (g)
To get Zinc and CO (heated)
Why is coke used?
- Reducing agent
- Reacts with O and form CO
3) ● Zinc is volatile -
● Gas is distilled
● Leaving less volatile
impurities behind
4) Zinc is condensed -
and liq is runned into a mould
It is a saturated solution- a solution containing the maximum amount of solute dissolved at a given
temperature
Metal + Water → Metal Metal + Oxygen → Metal oxide Metal + Acid → Metal Salt +

2) Hydrogen ● Reaction between CH4 (g) + H2O (g) → 3H2 (g) + CO (g)
(Steam methane and steam methane + water ← hydrogen + carbon
Reforming) ● 750oc | 30 atm | Nickel monoxide
1) Sulfur reacts with Dust, impurities and S (s) + O2(g) → SO2 (g)
Oxygen unreacted oxygen are Sulfur + oxygen → Sulfur dioxide
To give Sulfur Dioxide removed afterwards
3) Sulfur trioxide is added ● Very violent SO3 (g) + H2O (l) → H2SO4 (l)
to water ● Produces thick mist Sulfur + Water → Sulfuric acid
To get Sulfuric Acid Trioxide

Properties
MORE NUMBER OF C ● High boiling point
● Not volatile
● Doesn’t flow (less
viscosity)
● Doesn’t ignite
LESS NUMBER OF C ● Low boiling point
● Very volatile
● Flows easily (very
viscous)
● Ignites easily
Saturated Unsaturated
A saturated organic compound has only single Called unsaturated because it is possible to
bonds between carbon atoms break one of the two bonds to add extra atoms
to the molecule
All single bonds in carbon atoms Double or triple bond in carbon atoms
Alkene: (=)
tip
Formed Breaking large alkane ● Alkane molecules “crack” Dont take out
(catalytic molecules obtained from ● Passed over a mixture of more than
cracking) fractional distillation of aluminium and chromium oxide C2H4 or C3H6

REACTIONS:
definition reaction
Combustion A reaction in which fuel Fuel + Oxygen -> CO2 + H2O + Energy
burns with oxygen in the air Fuel + Oxygen -> CO + H2O + Energy (soot-
that produces carbon unburnt C particles)
dioxide, water and energy.
Substituion One or more H atoms of Methane + chloride -> Chloro Methane + HCl
hydrocarbon/ alkane is CH4 + Cl2 -> CH3Cl + HCl
replaced by other atoms/ (in presence of UV light/ Sunlight)
groups of atoms. Eg:
halogens
Addition polymerisation
● All covalent bonds
● Intermolecular forces in
melting and boiling
points– weaker than
covalent bonds
● High surface area–
loads of intermolecular
forces
● Higher MPBP than repeating units
simple molecular but
Lower MPBP than giant
molecular bigger molecules
● Solid at RTP
● Condition: Pressure

Some condensation polymers:
POLYESTER POLYAMIDE
Natural polymers:
AMINO ACIDS
● Lots of amino acids
and add them together-
Polypeptide
CARBOHYDRATES
● Made of only Carbon, By combining monomers, we can make different polymers
oxygen and hydrogen

Starch, cellulose and
glycogen
● Monomers

glucose and fructose
Alcohol: (OH)
● Alkene to alcohol
● Hydration

● 300 deg cel
● 60 atm
● Soluble:
Dissolve in water (neutral PH)
● Gives oxidsed carboxylic acid
Uses of alcohol:
● Fuels (releases lots of energy)
● Solvent in industry (dissolve things that
water cant)
FERMENTATION:
● Add water with yeast
● Renewable raw material is used
● CnH2n+1COOH
● Weak acid
● Dont fully ionise-
Esters: (COO)
Reaction: Carboxylic acid + alcohol —> ester + water
● Acid catalyst (H2SO4)

- Fuel
- Alcohol drinking, wine
- Varnish, polish
- Perfumes
