Resources Textbook: Essential Chemistry for Cambridge IGCSE (Roger Norris)
Key words Alkanes, Substitution, cracking Learning Lesson 1 Objectives - Properties of alkanes (exemplified by methane) as being generally unreactive, except in terms of burning. - The bonding in alkanes - Substitution reactions of alkanes with chlorine Lesson 2 - Necessity of cracking after fractional distillation - Cracking of HCs in the lab - Examples of cracking: Using naphtha and ethane Learning activities Lesson 1 and tasks - Teacher to outline properties of alkanes based on the bonding (Lack of reactivity is partly due to the presence of strong singles bongs C–C and C–H bonds only) - Describe reactions of alkanes (complete vs incomplete combustion and photochemical substitution reaction with halogens) Lesson 2 - Teacher to explain that cracking is essentially a type of thermal decomposition technique - Teacher to explain the necessity for cracking to obtain desirable products Lesson plan 1 1.
