    This document discusses organic reactions including: 1. Halogenation reactions where a hydrogen atom is substituted by a halogen atom through a light or heat-induced substitution reaction. 2. Combustion reactions, either complete where there is enough oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water, or incomplete where there is insufficient oxygen and carbon or carbon monoxide are produced. 3. Sample problems are provided to test understanding of predicting products and writing balanced equations for halogenation and combustion reactions of various organic compounds.

    General Chemistry I
    Learning Activity Sheet 1 Week 7

    Describe some simple reactions of organic molecules compounds

    There are lots of reactions involving organic compounds. However, we will only
    focus on simple reactions that are useful in industries, environment and also in
    biological systems.

    1. Halogenation
     A reaction of an organic compound in the presence of light/ heat
     a Hydrogen atom in the organic compound is substituted by a halogen
    atom (F, Cl, Br, I)
     The reaction is
    classified as
    substitution reaction
     very important in
    organic chemistry because it opens a gateway to further chemical
    reactions
     structural formula is needed in showing for the solution

    2. Complete Combustion/ Burning


     a reaction that produces carbon dioxide and water where there is enough
    oxygen present
     this is an example of an oxidation reaction. Oxidation is the increase in the
    oxygen content and/ decrease in the hydrogen content of the carbon
    atoms in the compound.
     molecular formula is enough to show the reaction
    C3H8+5O2→3CO2+4H2O propane
    2C4H10+13O2→8CO2+10H2O butane

    Incomplete combustion (where there is not enough oxygen present) can lead
    to the formation of carbon or carbon monoxide. As a simple way of thinking
    about it, the hydrogen in the hydrocarbon gets the first chance at the
    oxygen, and the carbon gets whatever is left over. The presence of glowing
    carbon particles in a flame turns it yellow, and black carbon is often visible
    in the smoke. Carbon monoxide is produced as a colorless poisonous gas.
    Sample Problems:
    1. What products are formed when propane undergoes chlorination? Draw their
    structural formula, skeletal formula and names of the 2 products.
    2. Show the chemical reaction for the production of C 4H10Br.
    3. Give the balanced equation for the complete combustion of 2,3,3-
    trimethylpentane.
    4. When ethane and bromine are mixed and illuminated by ultraviolet light, they
    react together in a substitution reaction. The incomplete balanced equation for
    this reaction is shown:C2H6 + Br2  X + HBr. Determine the stoichiometry and
    molecular formula of the product X.
    5. What is produced in the monosubstitution reaction of propane and chlorine?
    6. Predict the products and balance the following chemical reactions.
    a. C2H6 + Br2 
    b. C7H16 + Cl2
    c. C3H8 + Cl2 
    d. methane (CH4) + oxygen 
    e. ethane (C2H6) + oxygen 
    f. propane (C3H8) + oxygen 
    g. butane (C4H10) + oxygen 
    h. pentane (C5H12) + oxygen 
