Alkanes and cycloalkanes - Study guides, Class notes & Summaries

what is a major difference between organic and inorganic compounds? - CORRECT ANSWER organic contain carbon what is the reason why there are so many organic compounds? - CORRECT ANSWER carbon atoms can form stable covalent bonds with other carbon atoms the vast number of organic compounds is due to the unique chemistry of carbon. this chemistry involves - CORRECT ANSWER formation of long chains& isomerism Which applies to the manner in which carbon bonds in alkanes? - CORRECT A...

OCR A LEVEL ORGANIC CHEMISTRY YEAR 12 WITH VERIFIED QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS What is the melting and boiling points of alkanes like? - ANSWER--as chain length increases so does the strength of the intermolecular forces as there is greater surface area for contact between molecules and hence stronger london forces and therefore the melting/boiling points are highr for longer chain. What is a structura/chain isomer? - ANSWER--Same molecular formula but a different structural formula Wh...

Organic chemistry: correct answer: The study of carbon-containing compounds except elemental carbon (diamond, graphite, coal), CO2, CO, carbonates, and cyanides. Inorganic chemistry: correct answer: Studies the elements and everything else. The principle components of food, fuels, wood construction, and clothing are organic compounds. Octet rule: correct answer: A chemical rule of thumb that reflects observation that atoms of main-group elements tend to combine in such a way that each a...
