Pressure
o 4moles 2moles
o Haber process increases pressure to force reaction right
o can also increase products to increase pressure
Temperature
o need to reduce heat for reaction rate but reduces energy for the reaction
Reaction Rate
o lowering the temperature increases reaction rate but reduces energy for
the reaction to start and continue
Compromise
o 700K
o 2.5x104kPa (250 x atmospheric pressure)
o catalyst, increased pressure
catalyst the catalyst is not used in the reaction, it is equilibrium. it can help
speed up the reaction; magnetite: Fe3O4
increased pressure forces reaction right i.e. more products
o
o explain why monitoring of the reaction vessel in the Haber process is
crucial and discuss the monitoring required
o Monitoring the Haber Process
temperature and pressure keep them in optimum range; as excessive
temperature can damage catalyst
ratio of hydrogen to nitrogen 3H:N to avoid build up
concentrations of oxygen, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and sulfur
compounds low 02 to reduce risk of explosion, low CO and CO2 to reduce
pollution and prevent poisoning of catalyst
concentration of argon and methane these lower efficiency of vessel
purity of ammonia product pure products, no impurities enter
o
o Manufactured foods, drugs and household chemicals are analysed
to determine or ensure their chemical composition
o deduce the ions present in a sample from the results of tests
o Identifying Cations in Solution
o Two problems
identification od the one and only cation present
a. to identify one cation, precipitation are used
i. HCl precipitates out with Pb2+
ii. H2SO4 precipitates out with Ba2+ or Ca2+
iii. NaOH precipitates out to with Cu2+, Fe2+, Fe3+
identification of all the ions present
o
o Identifying Anions in Solution
Carbonate acid + carbonate carbon dioxide + salt + water
Sulfate add Ba(NO3)2 produces white precipitate; Pb(NO3)2 produces white
precipitate
Chloride AgNO3 produces white precipitate; dissolves in ammonia and darkens
in sunlight
Phosphate - + ammonia + Ba(NO3)2 produces white precipitate
o
o Flame Tests
The flame colour indicates the type of cation present, independent of anion
this is due to energy levels electrons. When an electron reaches a higher energy
level in absorbs energy and light is released
multiple colours indicate multiple electron changes
iron orange
sodium yellow/orange
calcium orange/red
potassium rose/lilac
barium apple green
copper orange/yellow/green
Need for Monitoring
produce must be monitored for standards, stated specification (active
ingredients) and so they dont have unacceptable levels of impurities
some impurities are ionic compounds. thus, it can be determined qualitatively
and then quantitatively if cations or anions are present
The Big Six
OH SO42 PO43NO3 CO32
NH4
INSERT PICTURE
identify the main pollutants found in the lower atmosphere and their sources
Pollutants
Ozone (03)
o formed by reactions of NO2
o incomplete combustion
Carbon Monoxide (CO)
o cars and fuels fires
o poisonous, binds easily to Hb
Carbon Dioxide
o power stations
Oxides of Nitrogen (NxOy)
o cars, fuel fires
o brown haze
Sulfur Dioxide (SO2)
o power stations, fuel fires
o smells like rotten eggs
Describe ozone as a molecule able to act both as an upper UV radiation shield
and a lower atmosphere pollutant.
Ozone in the upper Atmosphere
In an ozone reaction in the upper atmosphere, O2 is combined with O by UVB
radiation. This absorbs the UVB rays, preventing them from reaching earth.
H3O+
NO3-
compare the properties of oxygen and allotropes oxygen and ozone and
account for them on the basis of molecular structure and bonding. compare the
properties of the gaseous forms of oxygen and the oxygen free radical
Oxygen Allotropes
An allotrope is the different forms of the same element
Oxygen Atoms have six electrons in their outer shell, They are very reactive as
the octet is short two electrons.
Free oxygen (O) is only found in small quantities in the upper atmosphere
Oxygen
each atom has a common pool of four electrons
oxygen is colorless, odourless and tasteless
boiling point of -183C
reasonably stable and slightly soluble in water
good oxidizing agent, but requires start up heat
reactivity is due to the DOUBLE BOND
it is a fairly reactive molecule as a double bond is less stable tan a single bond
Ozone
coordinate covalent bond
an asymmetrical molecule
more reactive than oxygen gas as the asymmetry causes the double and single
bond to move continuously, forming a resonance structure
light blue gas, boiling point -111C
brilliant blue liquid
pungent odour, lung irritant
more soluble in water, can be used in place of chlorine to kill pool bacteria
decomposes to O2 when heated
Oxygen Free Radical
highly reactive, the most reactive as it need to fill its outer shell
Halons
o contain fluorine and bromine
o invented in the war as a non-toxic gas to put out submarine fires
o more destructive to ozone than CFCs
o ten times more destructive
identify and name examples of isomers of haloalkanes up to eight carbons
Single bonds refer to an ANE
haloalkanes can also have Br, F, Cl and I. These are named from the smallest
number rightleft or leftright, and then alphabetically.
discuss the problems associated with the use of CFCs and assess the
effectiveness of steps taken to alleviate these problems
The Ozone Layer
CFCs effectively deplete the ozone layer I the atmosphere, this disrupts natural
cycles and allows UV radiation to reach the earth, having dire consequences in
terms of skin, cellular and eye health
Effectiveness of Counter Measures
putting in place satellites and earth stations to monitor ozone loss. This draws
attention to the problem but is not a fix
better sunscreens. Treats the symptoms not the cause
educated to avoid using ozone-depletes. responsible people listen and act, but
what about hose that dont understand or cant afford it.
Montreal protocol has listed a range of ozone-destroying chemicals and given
each a number that indicates its destructiveness. It is a start, but there is the
issue of disposal
Australia has signed the Montreal protocol. This is fine from richer countries that
can afford to remove these products. But what about the poorer countries that
produce these chemicals as a means of economic boost? or who simply cant
afford to use the alternatives?
Human Activity also impacts on waterways. Chemical monitoring and
management and management assist in providing safe water for
human use and to protect the habitats of other organisms.
Identify that water quality can be determined by concentration of common ions,
total dissolved solids, hardness, turbidity, acidity, dissolved oxygen and
biochemical oxygen demand
Water Testing
Concentration of common ions
o water can be tested for
