The mixture is first dissolved in hot concentrated sodium/potassium hydroxide solution. The alkalis dissolve both bauxite and silicon(IV)oxide. This is because bauxite is amphotellic while silicon(IV)oxide is acidic. Iron(III)oxide (Fe2O3) is filtered of /removed as a residue. Carbon(IV)oxide is bubbled into the filtrate to precipitate aluminium (III) hydroxide (Al(OH)3) as residue. The aluminium (III) hydroxide (Al(OH)3) residue is filtered off. Silicon (IV)oxide remain in the solution as filtrate.

IRON a)Natural occurrence Iron is the second most common naturally occurring metal. It makes 4% of the earths crust as: (i)Haematite(Fe2O3) (ii)Magnetite(Fe3O4) (iii)Siderite(FeCO3) b)The blast furnace for extraction of iron from Haematite and Magnetite a)Raw materials: (i)Haematite(Fe2O3) (ii)Magnetite(Fe3O4) (iii)Siderite(FeCO3) (iv)Coke/charcoal/ carbon (v)Limestone b)Chemical processes: Iron is usually extracted from Haematite (Fe2O3), Magnetite(Fe3O4) Siderite (FeCO3).These ores contain silicon(IV)oxide(SiO2) and aluminium(III)oxide (Al2O3) as impurities. When extracted from siderite, the ore must first be roasted in air to decompose the iron(II)Carbonate to Iron(II)oxide with production of carbon(IV)oxide gas: FeCO3(s) FeO(s) + CO2(g) Iron(II)oxide is then rapidly oxidized by air to iron(III)oxide(Haematite). 4FeO(s) + O2(g) 2Fe2O3(s) Haematite (Fe2O3), Magnetite(Fe3O4), coke and limestone are all then fed from top into a tall (about 30metres in height) tapered steel chamber lined with refractory bricks called a blast furnace. The furnace is covered with inverted double cap to prevent/reduce amount of any gases escaping . Near the base/bottom, blast of hot air at about 1000K (827oC) is driven/forced into the furnace through small holes called Tuyeres. As the air enters ,it reacts with coke/charcoal/carbon to form carbon(IV)oxide gas. This reaction is highly exothermic. C(s)+ O2(g) CO2 (g) ∆H = -394kJ 19 This raises the temperature at the bottom of the furnace to about 2000K(1650oC).As Carbon(IV)oxide gas rises up the furnace it reacts with more coke to form carbon(II)oxide gas.This reaction is endothermic.

CO2 (g) + C(s) 2CO (g) ∆H = +173kJ Carbon(II)oxide gas is a strong reducing agent that reduces the ores at the upper parts of the furnace where temperatures are about 750K(500oC) i.e. For Haematite; Fe2O3 (s) + 3CO(g) 2Fe(s) + CO2(g) For Magnetite; Fe3O4 (s) + 4CO(g) 3Fe(s) + 4CO2(g) Iron is denser than iron ore. As it falls to the hotter base of the furnace it melts and can easily be tapped off. Limestone fed into the furnace decomposes to quicklime/calcium oxide and produce more carbon(IV)oxide gas. CaCO3(s) CaO(s) + CO2(g) Quicklime/calcium oxide reacts with the impurities silicon(IV)oxide(SiO2) and aluminium(III)oxide(Al2O3)in the ore to form calcium silicate and calcium aluminate. CaO(s) + SiO2(s) CaSiO3 (l) CaO(s) + Al2O3(s) Ca Al2O4 (l) Calcium silicate and calcium aluminate mixture is called slag.Slag is denser than iron ore but less dense than iron therefore float on the pure iron.

Copper pyrites are first crushed into fine powder. The powdered ore is the added water and oil. The purpose of water is to dissolve hydrophilic substances/particle. The purpose of oil is to make cover copper ore particle so as to make it hydrophobic Air is blown through the mixture. Air creates bubbles that stick around hydrophobic copper ore. The air bubbles raise through buoyancy small hydrophobic copper ore particles to the surface. A concentrated ore floats at the top as froth. This is called froth flotation. The concentrated ore is then skimmed off.The ore is then roasted in air to form copper(I)sulphide ,sulphur(IV)oxide and iron (II) oxide.

Metals form giant metallic structure joined by metallic bond from electrostatic attraction between the metallic cation and free delocalized electrons. This makes metals to have the following physical properties: (i)High melting and boiling points The giant metallic structure has a very close packed metallic lattice joined by strong electrostatic attraction between the metallic cation and free delocalized electrons.The more delocalized electrons the higher the melting/boiling points e.g. Aluminium has a melting point of about 2015oC while that of sodium is about 98oC.This is mainly because aluminium has more/three delocalized electrons than sodium/has one.

Metals form giant metallic structure joined by metallic bond from electrostatic attraction between the metallic cation and free delocalized electrons. This makes metals to have the following physical properties: (i)High melting and boiling points The giant metallic structure has a very close packed metallic lattice joined by strong electrostatic attraction between the metallic cation and free delocalized electrons.The more delocalized electrons the higher the melting/boiling points e.g. Aluminium has a melting point of about 2015oC while that of sodium is about 98oC.This is mainly because aluminium has more/three delocalized electrons than sodium/has one. Aluminium has a boiling point of about 2470oC while that of sodium is about 890oC.This is mainly because aluminium has more/three delocalized electrons than sodium/has one. 34 (ii)High thermal and electrical conductivity All metals are good thermal and electrical conductors as liquid or solids. The more delocalized electrons the higher the thermal and electrical conductivity. e.g. Aluminium has an electrical conductivity of about 3.82 x 19-9 ohms per metre. Sodium has an electrical conductivity of about 2.18 x 19-9 ohms per metre. (iii)Shiny/Lustrous The free delocalized electrons on the surface of the metal absorb, vibrate and then scatter/re-emit/lose light energy. All metals are therefore usually shades of grey in colour except copper which is shiny brown.e.g. Zinc is bluish grey while iron is silvery grey. (iv)High tensile strength The free delocalized electrons on the surface of the metal atoms binds the surface immediately when the metal is coiled/folded preventing it from breaking /being brittle. (v)Malleable. Metals can be made into thin sheet. The metallic crystal lattice on being beaten/pressed/hammered on two sides extend its length and width/bredth and is then immediately bound by the delocalized electrons preventing it from breaking/being brittle. (vi)Ductile. Metals can be made into thin wires. The metallic crystal lattice on being beaten/pressed/hammered on all sides extend its length is then immediately bound by the delocalized electrons preventing it from breaking/being brittle.

LABORATORY PREPARATION OF ALKANOLS. For decades the world over, people have been fermenting grapes juice, sugar, carbohydrates and starch to produce ethanol as a social drug for relaxation. 6 In large amount, drinking of ethanol by mammals /human beings causes mental and physical lack of coordination. Prolonged intake of ethanol causes permanent mental and physical lack of coordination because it damages vital organs like the liver. Fermentation is the reaction where sugar is converted to alcohol/alkanol using biological catalyst/enzymes in yeast. It involves three processes: (i)Conversion of starch to maltose using the enzyme diastase.

Prolonged intake of ethanol causes permanent mental and physical lack of coordination because it damages vital organs like the liver. Fermentation is the reaction where sugar is converted to alcohol/alkanol using biological catalyst/enzymes in yeast. It involves three processes: (i)Conversion of starch to maltose using the enzyme diastase. (C6H10O5)n (s) + H2O(l) --diastase enzyme --> C12H22O11(aq) (Starch) (Maltose) (ii)Hydrolysis of Maltose to glucose using the enzyme maltase. C12H22O11(aq)+ H2O(l) -- maltase enzyme -->2 C6H12O6(aq) (Maltose) (glucose) (iii)Conversion of glucose to ethanol and carbon(IV)oxide gas using the enzyme zymase. C6H12O6(aq) -- zymase enzyme --> 2 C2H5OH(aq) + 2CO2(g) (glucose) (Ethanol) At concentration greater than 15% by volume, the ethanol produced kills the yeast enzyme stopping the reaction. To increases the concentration, fractional distillation is done to produce spirits (e.g. Brandy=40% ethanol). Methanol is much more poisonous /toxic than ethanol. Taken large quantity in small quantity it causes instant blindness and liver, killing the consumer victim within hours. School laboratory preparation of ethanol from fermentation of glucose Measure 100cm3 of pure water into a conical flask. Add about five spatula end full of glucose. Stir the mixture to dissolve. Add about one spatula end full of yeast. Set up the apparatus as below. 7 Preserve the mixture for about three days. D.PHYSICAL AND CHEMICAL PROPERTIES OF ALKANOLS Use the prepared sample above for the following experiments that shows the characteristic properties of alkanols (a) Role of yeast Yeast is a single cell fungus which contains the enzyme maltase and zymase that catalyse the fermentation process. (b) Observations in lime water. A white precipitate is formed that dissolve to a colourless solution later. Lime water/Calcium hydroxide reacts with carbon(IV)0xide produced during the fermentation to form insoluble calcium carbonate and water.

(b) Observations in lime water. A white precipitate is formed that dissolve to a colourless solution later. Lime water/Calcium hydroxide reacts with carbon(IV)0xide produced during the fermentation to form insoluble calcium carbonate and water. More carbon (IV)0xide produced during fermentation react with the insoluble calcium carbonate and water to form soluble calcium hydrogen carbonate. Ca(OH)2(aq) + CO2 (g) -> CaCO3(s) H2O(l) + CO2 (g) + CaCO3(s) -> Ca(HCO3) 2 (aq) (c)Effects on litmus paper Experiment 8 Take the prepared sample and test with both blue and red litmus papers. Repeat the same with pure ethanol and methylated spirit. Sample Observation table Substance/alkanol Effect on litmus paper Prepared sample Blue litmus paper remain blue Red litmus paper remain red Absolute ethanol Blue litmus paper remain blue Red litmus paper remain red Methylated spirit Blue litmus paper remain blue Red litmus paper remain red Explanation Alkanols are neutral compounds/solution that have characteristic sweet smell and taste. They have no effect on both blue and red litmus papers. (d)Solubility in water. Experiment Place about 5cm3 of prepared sample into a clean test tube Add equal amount of distilled water. Repeat the same with pure ethanol and methylated spirit. Observation No layers formed between the two liquids. Explanation Ethanol is miscible in water.Both ethanol and water are polar compounds . The solubility of alkanols decrease with increase in the alkyl chain/molecular mass. The alkyl group is insoluble in water while –OH functional group is soluble in water. As the molecular chain becomes longer ,the effect of the alkyl group increases as the effect of the functional group decreases. e)Melting/boiling point. Experiment Place pure ethanol in a long boiling tube .Determine its boiling point. Observation Pure ethanol has a boiling point of 78oC at sea level/one atmosphere pressure. Explanation The melting and boiling point of alkanols increase with increase in molecular chain/mass . 9 This is because the intermolecular/van-der-waals forces of attraction between the molecules increase. More heat energy is thus required to weaken the longer chain during melting and break during boiling.

Explanation The melting and boiling point of alkanols increase with increase in molecular chain/mass . 9 This is because the intermolecular/van-der-waals forces of attraction between the molecules increase. More heat energy is thus required to weaken the longer chain during melting and break during boiling. f)Density Density of alkanols increase with increase in the intermolecular/van-der-waals forces of attraction between the molecule, making it very close to each other. This reduces the volume occupied by the molecule and thus increase the their mass per unit volume (density).

Ignite. Repeat with pure ethanol and methylated spirit. Observation/Explanation Fermentation produce ethanol with a lot of water(about a ratio of 1:3)which prevent the alcohol from igniting. Pure ethanol and methylated spirit easily catch fire / highly flammable. They burn with an almost colourless non-sooty/non-smoky blue flame to form carbon(IV) oxide (in excess air/oxygen)or carbon(II) oxide (limited air) and water. Ethanol is thus a saturated compound like alkanes.

Add equal amount of ethanoic acid.To the mixture add carefully 2drops of concentrated sulphuric(VI)acid. Warm/Heat gently. Pour the mixture into a beaker containing about 50cm3 of cold water. Smell the products. Repeat with methanol Sample observations Substance/alkanol Effect on adding equal amount of ethanol/concentrated sulphuric(VI)acid Absolute ethanol Sweet fruity smell Methanol Sweet fruity smell Explanation Alkanols react with alkanoic acids to form a group of homologous series of sweet smelling compounds called esters and water. This reaction is catalyzed by concentrated sulphuric(VI)acid in the laboratory. Alkanol + Alkanoic acid –Conc. H2SO4-> Ester + water Naturally esterification is catalyzed by sunlight. Each ester has a characteristic smell derived from the many possible combinations of alkanols and alkanoic acids that create a variety of known natural(mostly in fruits) and synthetic(mostly in juices) esters . Esters derive their names from the alkanol first then alkanoic acids. The alkanol “becomes” an alkyl group and the alkanoic acid “becomes” alkanoate hence alkylalkanoate. e.g. Ethanol + Ethanoic acid -> Ethylethanoate + Water Ethanol + Propanoic acid -> Ethylpropanoate + Water Ethanol + Methanoic acid -> Ethylmethanoate + Water Ethanol + butanoic acid -> Ethylbutanoate + Water Propanol + Ethanoic acid -> Propylethanoate + Water Methanol + Ethanoic acid -> Methyethanoate + Water Methanol + Decanoic acid -> Methyldecanoate + Water Decanol + Methanoic acid -> Decylmethanoate + Water 13 During the formation of the ester, the “O” joining the alkanol and alkanoic acid comes from the alkanol.

Alkenes react with water vapour/steam at high temperatures and high pressures in presence of phosphoric acid catalyst to form alkanols.i.e. Alkenes + Water - H3PO4 catalyst-> Alkanol Examples (i)Ethene is mixed with steam over a phosphoric acid catalyst at 300oC temperature and 60 atmosphere pressure to form ethanol Ethene + water ---60 atm/300oC/ H3PO4 --> Ethanol H2C =CH2 (g) + H2O(l) --60 atm/300oC/ H3PO4 --> CH3 CH2OH(l) This is the main method of producing large quantities of ethanol instead of fermentation (ii) Propene + water ---60 atm/300oC/ H3PO4 --> Propanol CH3C =CH2 (g) + H2O(l) --60 atm/300oC/ H3PO4 --> CH3 CH2 CH2OH(l) (iii) Butene + water ---60 atm/300oC/ H3PO4 --> Butanol CH3 CH2 C=CH2 (g) + H2O(l) --60 atm/300oC/ H3PO4 --> CH3 CH2 CH2 CH2OH(l) II. Dehydration is the process which concentrated sulphuric(VI)acid (dehydrating agent) removes water from a compound/substances. Concentrated sulphuric(VI)acid dehydrates alkanols to the corresponding alkenes at about 180oC. i.e Alkanol --Conc. H2 SO4/180oC--> Alkene + Water Examples 1. At 180oC and in presence of Concentrated sulphuric(VI)acid, ethanol undergoes dehydration to form ethene. Ethanol ---180oC/ H2SO4 --> Ethene + Water CH3 CH2OH(l) --180oC/ H2SO4 --> H2C =CH2 (g) + H2O(l) 2. Propanol undergoes dehydration to form propene.

Similarity with alkanes Both alkanols and alkanes burn with a blue non-sooty flame to form carbon(IV)oxide(in excess air/oxygen)/carbon(II)oxide(in limited air) and water. This shows they are saturated with high C:H ratio. e.g. Both ethanol and ethane ignite and burns in air with a blue non-sooty flame to form carbon(IV)oxide(in excess air/oxygen)/carbon(II)oxide(in limited air) and water.

This shows they are saturated with high C:H ratio. e.g. Both ethanol and ethane ignite and burns in air with a blue non-sooty flame to form carbon(IV)oxide(in excess air/oxygen)/carbon(II)oxide(in limited air) and water. CH2 CH2OH(l) + 3O2(g) -Excess air-> 2CO2 (g) + 3H2 O(l) CH2 CH2OH(l) + 2O2(g) -Limited air-> 2CO (g) + 3H2 O(l) CH3 CH3(g) + 3O2(g) -Excess air-> 2CO2 (g) + 3H2 O(l) 2CH3 CH3(g) + 5O2(g) -Limited air-> 4CO (g) + 6H2 O(l) II. Similarity with alkenes/alkynes Both alkanols(R-OH) and alkenes/alkynes(with = C = C = double and – C = C- triple ) bond: (i)decolorize acidified KMnO4 (ii)turns Orange acidified K2Cr2O7 to green. Alkanols(R-OH) are oxidized to alkanals(R-O) ant then alkanoic acids(R-OOH). Alkenes are oxidized to alkanols with duo/double functional groups. Examples 1.When ethanol is warmed with three drops of acidified K2Cr2O7 the orange of acidified K2Cr2O7 turns to green. Ethanol is oxidized to ethanol and then to ethanoic acid. Ethanol + [O] -> Ethanal + [O] -> Ethanoic acid CH3CH2OH + [O] -> CH3CH2O + [O] -> CH3COOH 2.When ethene is bubbled in a test tube containing acidified K2Cr2O7 ,the orange of acidified K2Cr2O7 turns to green. Ethene is oxidized to ethan-1,2-diol. Ethene + [O] -> Ethan-1,2-diol. H2C=CH2 + [O] -> HOCH2 -CH2OH III. Differences with alkenes/alkynes Alkanols do not decolorize bromine and chlorine water.

Ethene + [O] -> Ethan-1,2-diol. H2C=CH2 + [O] -> HOCH2 -CH2OH III. Differences with alkenes/alkynes Alkanols do not decolorize bromine and chlorine water. Alkenes decolorizes bromine and chlorine water to form halogenoalkanols Example 17 When ethene is bubbled in a test tube containing bromine water,the bromine water is decolorized. Ethene is oxidized to bromoethanol. Ethene + Bromine water -> Bromoethanol. H2C=CH2 + HOBr -> BrCH2 -CH2OH IV. Differences in melting and boiling point with Hydrocarbons Alkanos have higher melting point than the corresponding hydrocarbon (alkane/alkene/alkyne) This is because most alkanols exist as dimer.A dimer is a molecule made up of two other molecules joined usually by van-der-waals forces/hydrogen bond or dative bonding. Two alkanol molecules form a dimer joined by hydrogen bonding. Example In Ethanol the oxygen atom attracts/pulls the shared electrons in the covalent bond more to itself than Hydrogen. This creates a partial negative charge (δ-) on oxygen and partial positive charge(δ+) on hydrogen. Two ethanol molecules attract each other at the partial charges through Hydrogen bonding forming a dimmer. H H H H C C O H H H H H O C C H H H Dimerization of alkanols means more energy is needed to break/weaken the Hydrogen bonds before breaking/weakening the intermolecular forces joining the molecules of all organic compounds during boiling/melting. E.USES OF SOME ALKANOLS (a)Methanol is used as industrial alcohol and making methylated spirit (b)Ethanol is used: 1. as alcohol in alcoholic drinks e.g Beer, wines and spirits. 2.as antiseptic to wash woulds 3.in manufacture of vanishes, ink ,glue and paint because it is volatile and thus easily evaporate 4.as a fuel when blended with petrol to make gasohol.

Sample observations Solution/acid Observations Ethanoic acid Sweet fruity smell Succinic acid Sweet fruity smell Citric acid Sweet fruity smell Oxalic acid Sweet fruity smell Tartaric acid Sweet fruity smell Dilute sulphuric(VI)acid No sweet fruity smell Explanation Alkanols react with alkanoic acid to form the sweet smelling homologous series of esters and water.The reaction is catalysed by concentrated sulphuric(VI)acid in the laboratory but naturally by sunlight /heat.Each ester has a characteristic smell derived from the many possible combinations of alkanols and alkanoic acids. Alkanol + Alkanoic acids -> Ester + water Esters derive their names from the alkanol first then alkanoic acids. The alkanol “becomes” an alkyl group and the alkanoic acid “becomes” alkanoate hence alkylalkanoate. e.g. Ethanol + Ethanoic acid -> Ethylethanoate + Water Ethanol + Propanoic acid -> Ethylpropanoate + Water Ethanol + Methanoic acid -> Ethylmethanoate + Water Ethanol + butanoic acid -> Ethylbutanoate + Water Propanol + Ethanoic acid -> Propylethanoate + Water Methanol + Ethanoic acid -> Methyethanoate + Water Methanol + Decanoic acid -> Methyldecanoate + Water Decanol + Methanoic acid -> Decylmethanoate + Water 32 During the formation of the ester, the “O” joining the alkanol and alkanoic acid comes from the alkanol.

DETERGENTS Detergents are cleaning agents that improve the cleaning power /properties of water.A detergent therefore should be able to: (i)dissolve substances which water can not e.g grease ,oil, fat (ii)be washed away after cleaning. There are two types of detergents: (a)Soapy detergents (b)Soapless detergents (a) SOAPY DETERGENTS Soapy detergents usually called soap is long chain salt of organic alkanoic acids.Common soap is sodium octadecanoate .It is derived from reacting concentrated sodium hydroxide solution with octadecanoic acid(18 carbon alkanoic acid) i.e. Sodium hydroxide + octadecanoic acid -> Sodium octadecanoate + water NaOH(aq) + CH3 (CH2) 16 COOH(aq) -> CH3 (CH2) 16 COO – Na+ (aq) +H2 O(l) Commonly ,soap can thus be represented ; R- COO – Na+ where; R is a long chain alkyl group and -COO – Na+ is the alkanoate ion. In a school laboratory and at industrial and domestic level,soap is made by reacting concentrated sodium hydroxide solution with esters from (animal) fat and oil. The process of making soap is called saponification. During saponification ,the ester is hydrolyzed by the alkali to form sodium salt /soap and glycerol/propan-1,2,3-triol is produced.

Filter of 35 /decant and wash off the residue with distilled water .Transfer the clean residue into a dry beaker. Preserve. The action of soap Soapy detergents: (i)act by reducing the surface tension of water by forming a thin layer on top of the water. (ii)is made of a non-polar alkyl /hydrocarbon tail and a polar -COO-Na+ head. The non-polar alkyl /hydrocarbon tail is hydrophobic (water hating) and thus does not dissolve in water .It dissolves in non-polar solvent like grease, oil and fat. The polar -COO-Na+ head is hydrophilic (water loving)and thus dissolve in water. When washing with soapy detergent, the non-polar tail of the soapy detergent surround/dissolve in the dirt on the garment /grease/oil while the polar head dissolve in water. Through mechanical agitation/stirring/sqeezing/rubbing/beating/kneading, some grease is dislodged/lifted of the surface of the garment. It is immediately surrounded by more soap molecules It float and spread in the water as tiny droplets that scatter light in form of emulsion making the water cloudy and shinny. It is removed from the garment by rinsing with fresh water.The repulsion of the soap head prevent /ensure the droplets do not mix.Once removed, the dirt molecules cannot be redeposited back because it is surrounded by soap molecules. Advantages and disadvantages of using soapy detergents Soapy detergents are biodegradable. They are acted upon by bacteria and rot.They thus do not cause environmental pollution. Soapy detergents have the diadvatage in that: (i)they are made from fat and oils which are better eaten as food than make soap.

Advantages and disadvantages of using soapy detergents Soapy detergents are biodegradable. They are acted upon by bacteria and rot.They thus do not cause environmental pollution. Soapy detergents have the diadvatage in that: (i)they are made from fat and oils which are better eaten as food than make soap. (ii)forms an insoluble precipitate with hard water called scum. Scum is insoluble calcium octadecanoate and Magnesium octadecanoate formed when soap reacts with Ca2+ and Mg2+ present in hard water. Chemical equation 2C17H35COO- Na+ (aq) + Ca2+(aq) -> (C17H35COO- )Ca2+ (s) + 2Na+(aq) (insoluble Calcium octadecanote/scum) 2C17H35COO- Na+ (aq) + Mg2+(aq) -> (C17H35COO- )Mg2+ (s) + 2Na+(aq) (insoluble Magnesium octadecanote/scum) This causes wastage of soap. Potassium soaps are better than Sodium soap. Potassium is more expensive than sodium and thus its soap is also more expensive. (b)SOAPLESS DETERGENTS 36 Soapless detergent usually called detergent is a long chain salt fromed from byproducts of fractional distillation of crude oil.Commonly used soaps include: (i)washing agents (ii)toothpaste (iii)emulsifiers/wetting agents/shampoo Soapless detergents are derived from reacting: (i)concentrated sulphuric(VI)acid with a long chain alkanol e.g. Octadecanol(18 carbon alkanol) to form alkyl hydrogen sulphate(VI) Alkanol + Conc sulphuric(VI)acid -> alkyl hydrogen sulphate(VI) + Water R –OH + H2SO4 -> R –O-SO3H + H2O (ii)the alkyl hydrogen sulphate(VI) is then neutralized with sodium/potassium hydroxide to form sodium/potassium alkyl hydrogen sulphate(VI) Sodium/potassium alkyl hydrogen sulphate(VI) is the soapless detergent.

Add dropwise carefully 18M concentrated sulphuric(VI)acid stirring continuously into the olive oil until the oil turns brown.Add 30cm3 of 6M sodium hydroxide solution.Stir.This is a soapless detergent. The action of soapless detergents 37 The action of soapless detergents is similar to that of soapy detergents.The soapless detergents contain the hydrophilic head and a long hydrophobic tail. i.e. vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv-COO-Na+ vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv-O-SO3- Na+ (long hydrophobic /non-polar alkyl tail) (hydrophilic/polar/ionic head) The tail dissolves in fat/grease/oil while the ionic/polar/ionic head dissolves in water. The tail stick to the dirt which is removed by the attraction of water molecules and the polar/ionic/hydrophilic head by mechanical agitation /squeezing/kneading/ beating/rubbing/scrubbing/scatching. The suspended dirt is then surrounded by detergent molecules and repulsion of the anion head preventing the dirt from sticking on the material garment. The tiny droplets of dirt emulsion makes the water cloudy. On rinsing the cloudy emulsion is washed away. Advantages and disadvantages of using soapless detergents Soapless detergents are non-biodegradable unlike soapy detergents. They persist in water during sewage treatment by causing foaming in rivers ,lakes and streams leading to marine /aquatic death. Soapless detergents have the advantage in that they: (i)do not form scum with hard water. (ii)are cheap to manufacture/buying (iii)are made from petroleum products but soapis made from fats/oil for human consumption. Sample revision questions 1. Study the scheme below Fat/oil KOH Boiling Sodium Chloride Filtration Filtrate Y Residue X 38 (a)Identify the process Saponification (b)Fats and oils are esters.
