H2SO4 and heat under reflux
what does acidic hydrolysis produce ?
carboxylic acid + alcohol
what reagent is used in alkaline hydrolysis
NaOH and heat under reflux
what is produced in alkaline hydrolysis
carboxylate salt and alcohol
what reagents are needed to go from a primary alcohol to a carboxylic acid
K2Cr2O7-2 + H+ ions
heat under reflux
what reagents are needed to go from a primary alcohol to an aldehyde (CHO) 
K2Cr2O7-2 + H+
heat and distil
role of H3PO4
acid proton donor
when reducing a ketone you get a mixture of two organic compounds why?
ketones are planar so it can be attacked from either side
optical isomers formed
define term halogenoalkane
carbon atom bonded to halogen is bonded to 3 other carbon atoms
what does tollen reagent do
oxidises the aldehyde forms silver mirror
if there’s a presence C=O what does fehling reagent show// do
oxidises aldehyde forms a red ppt
why does CH4 have no overall dipole moment
charges cancel out
tetrahedral
non polar
amide + water -> carboxy acid +
ammonia
alcohol + halide -> halogenoalkane +
water
alchol -> alkene +
water
alkene + steam =
addition reaction
aldehyde + steam =
addition reaction
alkene reactions are either electrophillic addition or redox what are the reagents for the redox reaction
KMnO4
what type of reaction is tollens reagent
oxidation // reduction
what type of reaction of 2,4 DNPH
condensation
ketone + NaBH4 =
reduction // addition reaction
halogenoalkane —> alkene =
elimination
