Many fl owers produce volatile oils. These oils are responsible for the sweet scent of many fl owers. What does the term volatile mean? A teacher placed some highly-scented fl owers at the front of the class. At fi rst, the students at the back of the class could not smell the scent. After two minutes they could smell the scent. Use the kinetic particle theory to explain these observations. Many plant oils are unsaturated hydrocarbons. Alkenes are also unsaturated hydrocarbons. The table shows some properties of four alkenes. alkene molecular formula relative molecular mass melting point / ºC boiling point / ºC ethene C2H4 –161 –103 propene C3H6 –185 – 47 butene C4H8 – 6 pentene C5H10 –165 +30 How does the boiling point of these alkenes change as the number of carbon atoms in the alkene increases? Why is it diffi cult to predict the melting point of butene? The relative molecular mass of each alkene differs from the next by 14. Which group of atoms is responsible for this difference. Tick one box.
