What do I need to know?
1. Translate between molecular, structural and ball
and stick representations of simple organic
molecules
2. Describe how the functional group affects the
property of an organic compound and
understand that alkanes are unreactive towards
aqueous reagents because C—C and C—H bonds
are unreactive;
3. Write balanced chemical reactions including for
burning hydrocarbons including state symbols

Representations of organic molecules
• There are a number of different ways to
represent organic molecules.
• Ball and stick – this is just like molymods
3
Representations of organic molecules
• Structural formula – this is where we show
the covalent bonds between atoms as a line
• Semi-structural (molecular) – this is where we
write out the formula but do not include
bonds; these are implied eg CH3CH2OH
4
• Molecular formula – this simply counts the numbers
of each sort of atom present in the molecule, but
tells you nothing about the way they are joined
together.
• Eg C2H6O
• This is the least helpful type of formula as it could be
one of two (or more) different chemicals

Rules of organic molecules
Generally speaking
Carbon must make four bonds
Nitrogen must make three bonds
Oxygen must make two bonds
Hydrogen must make one bond
A double bond counts as two bonds eg C=C or C=O.
A triple bond counts as three bonds.

Understanding reactivity
• Alkanes are unreactive towards aqueous
reagents because C-C and C-H bonds are
unreactive.
• What about organic molecules that have
different bonds?
• We call families of different types of bonded
atoms FUNCTIONAL GROUPS
• An example is the –OH group or alcohol
group.

Alkanes and combustion
• Because of the hydrocarbon chain alkanes
burn readily releasing large amounts of
energy.
• Alkanes are therefore used as fuels.
• When they burn completely they make carbon
dioxide and water.
eg octane (found in petrol)
C8H18 +12 ½ O2 8CO2 + 9H2O

How do we make ethanol?
• Fermentation is a key process for obtaining
ethanol. It is relatively cheap and requires
wheat or beet sugar.
• The process involves the anaerobic respiration
of yeast at temperatures between 20 and 40°C
and at pH 7.
36
Conditions for fermentation
• Outside an optimum temperature the yeast does not work (high
temperatures kill the yeast).
• Outside an optimum pH the yeast does not work (extremes of pH
kill the yeast).
• To make ethanol the yeast must respire anaerobically (without
oxygen).
• Eventually the ethanol concentration will be too high for the
fermentation to continue. This means only a dilute solution can be
made.

Ethanol – Key facts
• Ethanol is made on an industrial scale as a fuel, a
solvent and as a feedstock for other processes;
• There is a limit to the concentration of ethanol solution
that can be made by fermentation and there are
optimum conditions of pH and temperature.
• Ethanol solution can be concentrated by distillation to
make products such as whisky and brandy;
• Genetically modified E. coli bacteria can be used to
convert waste biomass from a range of sources into
ethanol and recall the optimum conditions for the
process;
• Ethane from crude oil can be converted into ethanol
• Evaluating the sustainability of each process is

They could not go back to the reactants
once the products are formed.

In the case of the vast majority of chemical
reactions this is true, the reaction of
methane and oxygen for example:
It is almost impossible to return the carbon
dioxide and water to the original methane

Position of the equilibrium
• Equilibrium can “lie” to the left or right.
• This is “in favour of products” or “in favour of

• Meaning that once equilibrium has been
reached there could be more products or
more reactants in the reaction vessel.
154
Le Chatelier’s principle
• If you remove product as it is made then
equilibrium will move to the right to counteract
the change
• If you add more reactant then equilibrium will
move to the right to counteract the change.
• In industry we recycle reactants back in and
remove product as it is made to push the
equilibrium in favour of more product.
