This class started by 7pm on Tuesday evening and it was a 'normal' class as there was no light and the class was noisy and rowdy.
The lecturer said because of the light outage, he was not going to do much and he left after about 30 minutes as he couldn't bring the noisy class to order.
A summary of the class goes thus:
PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF ALKANES.
1. The molecular formula increases by CH2 down the group.
2. Down the group, form of compounds change. methane - butane are games.
3. As the carbon chain increases, there is a change in boiling and melting points.
4. Highly branched ALKANES are better than the branched.
SOURCES OF ALKANES.
1. Natural gas: When plants decay under water, it produces games of which 70% of methane.
2. Petroleum (crude oil).
FRACTION OF PETROLEUM & USES
1. Natural gas:Used for combustion.
2. Gasoline (petrol) :Used for fuelling cars, generators etc
3. Naphtha : Used to dissolve salt in laboratory.
4. Aviation fuel: Used to fuel aircrafts.
5. Kerosene : Used to fuel cooking stoves.
6. Gas oil (Diesel) : To fuel heavy trucks and bused.
7. Lubricating oil: It helps to reduce friction in engines.
8. Asphalt & Bitumen : For taring of roads.
