Characteristics Of Organic Molecules

Question 1

What is organic chemistry

Answer 1

Branch of chemistry concerned about compounds with carbon

Question 2

molecules that have the same molecular formula

but different arrangements of atoms

Answer 2

Isomers

Question 3

molecules that are formed by a single

element and that possess different molecular structure

Answer 3

Allotrophs

Question 4

is the interaction of atomic orbitals inside the

atom in order to form new hybrid orbitals

Answer 4

Hybridization

Question 5

Molecular orbital (covalent bond) formed by
the frontal overlapping of atomic orbitals

Answer 5

Sigma (σ)bond
