Q1.
Bromoalkanes are industrially important as solvents for glues and for degreasing surfaces.
They do not occur naturally and are produced from the reaction of hydrocarbons with bromine or
hydrogen bromide.
Propene reacts with hydrogen bromide to produce two possible bromoalkanes.
Figure 4
(i) Draw the displayed structural formula of bromoalkane Y in the box in Figure 4.
(1)
(ii) Identify the reason that propene is able to form two bromoalkanes.
(1)
A It has a symmetrical structure.
B It has an asymmetrical structure.
C It has both cis and trans isomers.
D It has hybridised carbon atoms.
(iii) Identify the name of bromoalkane X in Figure 4.
(1)
A 1-bromopropane
B 1-bromopropene
C 3-bromopropane
D 3-bromopropene
(iv) Propene reacts with hydrogen bromide by an electrophilic addition mechanism.
During the reaction mechanism, a carbocation is formed.
, The two possible carbocations that can form are shown below.
Figure 5
Compare the stability of carbocation A with carbocation B.

(iii) The enthalpy change (ΔH) for this reaction is –3509 kJ when one mole of pentane burns in oxygen.
, The reaction is carried out at a pressure (p) of 100 kPa.
The change in volume (ΔV) is 0.21m3.
Calculate the change in internal energy (ΔU) for this reaction.
ΔH = ΔU + pΔV

Q3.
Titanium is a transition metal.
Figure 1 shows a human hip with a titanium replacement implant.
Titanium is suitable for this use because it is very strong.
Titanium can be extracted from its ore using the Kroll process.
The ore is first converted into titanium(IV) chloride.
