Chemistry Final Flashcards
organic compound properties
covalent
non polar
low melting
low boiling
high flammability
not soluble in water- unless polar present
inorganic compound properties
ionic bond
ionic polarity
high boiling
high melting
low flammability
soluble in water
does organic or inorganic have fewer compounds
inorganic
hydrogenation
alkene + H2 > alkane
hydration
alkene + h2O > alcohol
polymerization
alkene + high temp pressure > polymer
phenol
OH on top of ring
thiol
contain SH group
why are short chain alcohols water soluble
they can hydrogen bond
3-pentanol undergoes oxidation, product is
ketone
`
product of oxidation of secondary alcohol
Ketone
product of dehydration of 1-propanol
alkene
major product of dehydration of 2-methycyclobutanol
1-methylcyclobutene
oxidation of alcohol
increase # of carbon-oxygen bonds
reduction of alcohol
decrease # of carbon-oxygen bonds
alcohol with 5 or more carbons
not soluble
alcohol with 4 carbons
slightly soluble
alcohol with 1-3 carbons
soluble
reduction of ketone
secondary alcohol
reduction of aldehyde
primary alcohol
oxidation of aldehyde
carboxylic acid
oxidation of primary alcohol
aldehyde, carboxylic acid
what does Benedicts reagent test for
aldehydes
Tollens’ test
aldehyde is oxidized and Ag+ is reduced
reaction of alcohol with aldehyde is
addition
ether
oxygen splits the carbon
hemiacetal
carbon bonded to one oxygen and one alcohol
acetal
carbon bonded to 2 oxygen groups
requirement of photosynthesis
sun, water, carbon dioxide
