(b)
A typical diesel molecule obtained from crude oil has the molecular formula C16H34
(hexadecane).
Other than the ester group, name a functional group present in biodiesel molecules
which is not present in hexadecane.
(c) Vegetable oils like rapeseed oil are converted into fats for use in the food industry.
What name is given to this process?
(a)

(b)

(c)

7. All enzymes are globular proteins.
(a)
What term is used to describe proteins which are not globular?
(b)
Catalase is an enzyme, contained in potatoes.
A student was studying the effect of varying pH on the activity of catalase.
The following apparatus was set up and left for 3 minutes.
(i) What must be added to the side-arm test tube to study the enzyme activity
at this pH?
(ii) Describe how the enzyme activity at this pH can be measured.
(a)
Fibrous.
(b)
(i) Hydrogen peroxide solution.
(ii) Counting the number of bubbles of oxygen in a set time can give a
measure of the enzyme activity. The more active the enzyme o
greater the number of bubbles of oxygen gas given off.
8. Two reactions of propanoic acid are shown.
(a)
Draw a structural formula for ester X.
(b) (i) Give a name for compound Y, which reacts with propanoic acid to form
sodium propanoate.
(ii) Explain why solutions of sodium propanoate are alkaline.
(a)
O
CH3-CH2 –C-O-CH3
(b) (i)Sodium hydroxide.
(ii) Sodium propanoate dissolves to form sodium and propanoate ions
Na+CH3CH2COO-(s) + H2O(l)  Na+(aq) + CH3CH2COO-(aq)
In water there is this equilbrium
H2O(l)
 H+(aq) + OH-(aq)
As propanoic acid is a weak acid the propanoate ions and hydrogen ions
react to form molecules of propanoic acid
CH3CH2COO-(aq) + H+(aq)  CH3CH2COOH(l)
This removes hydrogen ions leaving an excess of hydroxide ions and so
the solution is alkaline.
9. Enzymes are specific biological catalysts. For example, trypsin, an enzyme produced
in the pancreas, will catalyse the hydrolysis of only certain peptide links in a protein.

(b) See graph.
(c)
The shape of the enzyme
molecule is irreversibly
changed so that it will no
longer complement the
shape of the substrate
molecule.
(c) Trypsin loses its activity if placed in a solution of very high pH.
What happens to the enzyme to cause this loss in activity?
10. Ethanol and propanoic acid can react to form an ester.
(a) Draw the structural formula for this ester.
(b) Draw a labelled diagram of the assembled apparatus that could be used to
prepare this ester in the laboratory.
(c) Due to hydrogen bonding, ethanol and propanoic acid are soluble in water
whereas the ester produced is insoluble.

where a hydrogen bond could exist between the organic molecule and the
water molecule.
