Alkane to halogenoalkane - Study guides, Class notes & Summaries

Thermal Cracking - ANSWER: - High temperatures (1000C) - High pressure (up to 70atm) - Produces ALKENES - E.g. ethene --> polyethene Catalytic Cracking - ANSWER: - Zeolite catalyst - Slight pressure - High temperature (450C) - Produces AROMATICS Reformation - ANSWER: Alkanes --> cycloalkanes/ aromatic hydrocarbons - Straight chain alkanes are a lot more likely to 'knock' - Pt Catalyst (ct) Alkene → Alkane - ANSWER: - Hydrogen - 150C - Ni ct - Hydrogenation -...
