Oh, so repeating units are just monomers? Ryte :) Thanks a lot once again.. ;D

for polyethene only 1 type of monemer

for nylon , 2 types of monomers , diamine and dicarboxylic acid (so i prefer to call this the repeating unit of nylon )

What volume of carbon dioxide is produced by burning 90 g of ethane in air?

C2H6 + 3.5O2 -------->  2CO2 + 3H2O

After you form the above equation do this:

90g / (24+6) = 3 moles of ethane

2*3 moles = 6 moles of CO2 (using the molar ratio)

6*24 = 144 dm3

u forgot to balance the O2 in the equation , but u didnt nned it anyway


and yeah thats how  u do it NIdzz ^

I balanced it correctly on the rough paper I had; I was in a rush so I missed it out whilst typing  :-[

I removed the quote from your post so Nidzzz doesnt get confused, is that alright ?

I got 2 questions if someone knows atleast one im glad to have the answer. Ok so extracting aluminium, after the aluminium froms and O2 forms up it reacts with the carbon electrodes so they need to be replaced, but what confuses me is why are the electrodes made of carbon in the first place? why not something which wouldnot react with the oxygen? ???
and the second question is not really a question but im confused, what are the carbon chain lengths of the oil fractions seperated by fractional distillation, each one has a different carbon chain length but I got 2 text books and the teachers notes and they all give different carbon chains, so which one should I study for the IGs? ???

@mdwael  The electrodes used have to be unreactive right ? Now remember this is an industrial process, you cant use platinum because its too expensive and many other metals would melt at 900 deg c.

So carbon is cheap and a good conductor.


You dont need to memorise the carbon chains for the exam - just the names of the fractions and their uses.
