Alkanes - ANSWER: entirely single bonds between carbons and hydrogens Alkenes - ANSWER: has a double bond and sp2 hybridization between some C and hydrogens Alkynes - ANSWER: has a triple bond between some carbon and hydrogens, sp hybridized What is the difference between benzene aromatic compound and toluene compound? - ANSWER: Toluene has a methyl added to one of the Carbons in the ring What determines a dipole moment? - ANSWER: It is determined by the magnitude and direction of th...

What is Organic Chemistry? - ANSWER: study of compounds that contain the element CARBON. Why is carbon important? - ANSWER: Central element to all living organisms!! It is the basis to all life on earth. By studying carbon and organic compounds, scientists can learn more about life, the human body, and how it works. Organic Molecules - ANSWER: Most are made up of long rings or chains of carbon atoms with atoms of other elements attached. Common elements besides carbon (C) that are found in...

Compound - ANSWER: A substance made up of atoms of two or more different elements joined by chemical bonds. Organic compounds - ANSWER: Compounds that contain bonds between carbon atoms. The four major groups of organic compounds are carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids. Inorganic compounds - ANSWER: Compounds that do not contain carbon. Examples are water and NaCl (salt). Lipids - ANSWER: Energy-rich organic compounds, such as fats, oils, and waxes, that are made of carbo...

Valence Shell - ANSWER: outermost electron shell Valence Electrons - ANSWER: electrons on the outermost energy level of an atom Valence electrons on the periodic table - ANSWER: The number of valence electrons in an A group of the periodic table = its group number Octet Rule Theory - ANSWER: Atoms lose, gain, or share electrons to have a full eight valence electrons to reach noble gas configuration Chemical Bond - ANSWER: The force that holds atoms together within molecules Ionic ...

atoms to the left of carbon _______________ electrons - ANSWER: give up Atoms to the right of carbon ______________ electrons - ANSWER: accept carbon __________ electrons - ANSWER: share number of protons; defines which element - ANSWER: atomic number sum of protons and neutrons in an isotope - ANSWER: mass number Same number protons, differing number of neutrons therefore different mass numbers - ANSWER: isotope average weighted mass of isotopes of an element as it occurs in n...

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 -...
