Can somebody explain to me how hydrogenation is linked to margarine? I understand the mechanism and the chemistry bit, its just these wordy questions like what is it used for where I lose marks!
Using hydrogenation, you can harden polyunsaturated vegetable oils, since the hydrogenation affects how the oil hardens. The two pics below should help.
Does anyone know where I can find some sort of map of the organic reactions? Something where like alkenes -hydrogenation-> alkanes, primary alcohols -distil oxidation-> aldehydes etc?
Ocr January 2010 question 4b: why does it say 'using your knowledge of group 7 elements, complete the electron configuration of bromine'? How is the electron configuration of group 7 elements any different to others?
