  • the name of carbohydrates are fructose, glucose, maltose, sucrose and starch
  • starch goes black (from brown) when mixed with iodine solution
  • starch doesn't change when it reacts with Benedict solution
  • glucose goes to a light yellow/ it barely changes when it reacts with iodine solution
  • glucose goes orange/ brick red (from blue) when it reacts with Benedict solution
  • making = g+g+g+g (infinite glucose molecules) to -g-g-g-g (straight line through) (starch molecules)
  • breaking= g-g-g-g (starch molecules) to g+g+g+g (glucose molecules)
  • carbohydrates are made up of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen atoms
  • fermentation is when we can turn fruits and veg into alcoholic drinks with the help of a fungus known as yeast
  • glucose ➡️ (yeast) ethanol+ carbon dioxide
  • an example of the hydroxyl "-oh" group or alcohol group
  • hydroxyl= -c-o-H
  • you can use alcohol drinking and cleaning and it is flammable and dissoluble
  • like acid and alkenes the first part of the name comes from how many carbons are in the molicule
  • the name ends in -ol to show its a hydroxyl -oh group present
  • 4 carbons-butan-OH (hydroxyl) group 2nd carbon
  • alcohol ends in -ol
  • hydroxyl formula CnH2n+1OH
  • it is recommended you shouldn't drink more than 14 units of drink a week
  • number of units= volume of drink ml x % ethanol/ 1000
  • alcohles are made by fermentation
  • an enzyme known as yeast helps to covert glucose into ethanol but stops working when the alcohol content gets too high.
  • to improve alcohol content we use a method used as distillation. this happens because ethanol has a lower boiling point than water
  • fermentation can only produce ethanol drinks
  • up to 15% enzymes need to work under optimal conditions. longer fermintation = more ethanol. once theres too much enzymes stop working
  • we have to use another technique to get a higher %
  • ethanoic acid
  • ends in -oic (acid)
  • formula for carboxylic acid- CnH2nO2
  • Eh= C x M x ΔT
  • Eh= heat gained by water (kj)
  • C= specific heat capasity (4.18)
  • m= mass of water/ (kg)
  • ΔT= change in temp water (°c)
  • c= kjkg-1°c-1
  • L=kg and ml=g=cm3
