If they are made from a polymer which can be recycled, then they are also environmentally friendly. Early plastics could not be recycled which caused problems with their disposal and led to accumulation of wastes. The development of polymers has also led to the production of cheap, disposable articles suitable for medical uses, e.g. tubing and syringes.

Can it be used alone or only as an extender? +HUHDUHVRPHH[DPSOHVRIZKDWLVPHDQWE\VWDWHGHVFULEHDQGH[SODLQ Advantages of using ethanol: Statement Ethanol is produced from a renewable source (unlike fossil fuels). Description Ethanol is produced by the fermentation of biomass whereas other fuels are produced from petroleum. Explanation Ethanol is produced by fermenting biomass – this comes from plants which are renewable as they can be grown to replace the ones used. Fermentation is by fungi such as the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae and genetically engineered E. coli bacteria. Ethanol burns more completely/ cleanly than fossil fuels. Carbon dioxide neutral C2H5OH(l) + 3O2(g) ĺ 2CO2(g) + 3H2O(g) Toxic carbon monoxide is reduced by 25-30%. The oxygen in the ethanol molecule ensures that less oxygen is needed to allow complete combustion of the fuel. Little or no carbon is produced so less is deposited in the car and spark plugs last longer. Ethanol is an excellent solvent, dissolving deposits built up in the engine. Net CO2 stays constant. The amount of CO2 used to produce crops for ethanol production = CO2 produced when ethanol burns. Carbon dioxide is produced when ethanol burns. CO2 used in photosynthesis to make crops that will later be converted to ethanol. 2CO2(g) + 3H2O(g) ĺ C2H5OH(l) + 3O2(g) 10% ethanol can be safely added to petrol. Ethanol acts as a petrol extender without damage to engines. No engine modification needed if only 10% added. Makes petrol supplies last longer. Disadvantages of using ethanol: Statement Description Explanation Ethanol has a lower heat of –1 combustion (29.7 kJ g ) than petrol –1 (47.9 kJ g ). Combustion of ethanol produces less energy than combustion of same amount of octane. Car can travel further with the same amount of octane than ethanol thus ethanol is more expensive. Existing car engines need to be modified if > 10% ethanol used in fuel. It is difficult to remove all water during distillation of fermented biomass. Water causes corrosion of engines and fuel lines. Large areas of land needed. Land is needed to grow crops to make ethanol. This is a problem because land is also needed to grow food crops and removal of forests is not acceptable on ecological grounds. (Note: Ethanol can now be produced from waste left over from food crops which removes this objection and means that it could be listed as an advantage – it gets rid of wastes from crops such as sugar cane without having to burn off.) Lots of energy is used in production of ethanol. Ethanol has to be distilled from the fermentation mix. This is a problem because distillation is energy intensive – energy is obtained by burning fossil fuels and also costs are high, making ethanol expensive.

Used as car batteries. Practical for this purpose as they do not need to be portable. They can be recharged. The reactions above are reversed by the car generator forcing current back into the battery. They work in a wide range of temperatures. Expensive compared to other batteries. Used in cardiac pacemakers, cellular phones, watches , computers and cameras. Practical for these uses as they are long-lasting, rechargeable and high voltage. Lithium batteries are very light and deliver more power (about 3 V) than dry cell and alkaline batteries (1.5 V). Impact on society Their development meant that cars could be started much more easily and reliably – they did not have to be cranked. They improved the capability of people to move around and travel long distances. The development of these long-lasting, rechargeable, very light batteries that produce a constant, relatively high voltage has led to the development of medical applications such as cardiac pacemakers which have saved lives. Their small size and portability have allowed the development of smaller electronic devices such as cameras, watches and phones. These have improved our ability to communicate over distance. Environmental impact Contains concentrated sulfuric acid (about 6 mol L ) which must be disposed of safely as it is highly corrosive. Also lead is a toxic heavy metal so must be disposed of carefully. –1 Lithium must be transported and disposed of safely to avoid environmental damage.

The button cell UHSUHVHQWVLPSURYHPHQWVLQGHVLJQDVLWDOVRFRQWDLQVQROLTXLGLWLVVPDOOHUKDVDORQJHUVKHOIOLIHDQG provides a more constant voltage for a longer period of time. These advantages have made possible the development of small watches, hearing aids, microphones and calculators. The reduction in size of these appliances has made them more portable and made them available to a greater percentage of the population. Hearing aids, which were previously bulky and obvious are now smaller and more convenient. At present the button cell is more expensive than the dry cell however, and it usually contains the heavy metal silver so must be disposed of carefully to prevent environmental damage. Heavy metals such as silver are toxic and they can bioaccumulate. Overall, the button cell is superior, its small size and constant voltage making possible the developments of small electronic devices that would not otherwise be possible. Its cost limits its use slightly, however, with time and mass production, this should decrease. 4.11.1 Various.

They have the same number of protons, and the same atomic number, as they are the same element. But their mass numbers differ. (b) A stable isotope does not normally disintegrate.
