Functional Group + Homologous series Flashcards
1
Q
What are all organic chemicals?
A
= covalent molecules based on element carbon
2
Q
What are a hydrocarbon chain?
A
= chain of carbon atoms bonded to hydrogen atoms
3
Q
What is the alcohol group?
A
= AN oh attached to the hydrocarbon chain
4
Q
What is a functional group?
A
= part of the molecule which determines how it reacts
5
Q
What is the homologous series?
A
= have the same functional group but each successive member has an additional CH2
= react the same
= shows gradual change in physical properties
= same chemical properties
